==========
Parameters
==========
Task-graph generation takes a collection of parameters as input, in the form of
a JSON or YAML file.
During decision-task processing, some of these parameters are supplied on the
command line or by environment variables. The decision task helpfully produces
a full parameters file as one of its output artifacts. The other ``mach
taskgraph`` commands can take this file as input. This can be very helpful
when working on a change to the task graph.
The properties of the parameters object are described here, divided rougly by
topic.
Push Information
----------------
``base_repository``
The repository from which to do an initial clone, utilizing any available
caching.
``head_repository``
The repository containing the changeset to be built. This may differ from
``base_repository`` in cases where ``base_repository`` is likely to be cached
and only a few additional commits are needed from ``head_repository``.
``head_rev``
The revision to check out; this can be a short revision string
``head_ref``
For Mercurial repositories, this is the same as ``head_rev``. For
git repositories, which do not allow pulling explicit revisions, this gives
the symbolic ref containing ``head_rev`` that should be pulled from
``head_repository``.
``owner``
Email address indicating the person who made the push. Note that this
value may be forged and *must not* be relied on for authentication.
``message``
The commit message
``pushlog_id``
The ID from the ``hg.mozilla.org`` pushlog
``pushdate``
The timestamp of the push to the repository that triggered this decision
task. Expressed as an integer seconds since the UNIX epoch.
Tree Information
----------------
``project``
Another name for what may otherwise be called tree or branch or
repository. This is the unqualified name, such as ``mozilla-central`` or
``cedar``.
``level``
The SCM level associated with this tree. This dictates the names
of resources used in the generated tasks, and those tasks will fail if it
is incorrect.
Target Set
----------
The "target set" is the set of task labels which must be included in a task
graph. The task graph generation process will include any tasks required by
those in the target set, recursively. In a decision task, this set can be
specified programmatically using one of a variety of methods (e.g., parsing try
syntax or reading a project-specific configuration file).
The decision task writes its task set to the ``target_tasks.json`` artifact,
and this can be copied into ``parameters.target_tasks`` and
``parameters.target_tasks_method`` set to ``"from_parameters"`` for debugging
with other ``mach taskgraph`` commands.
``target_tasks_method``
(optional) The method to use to determine the target task set. This is the
suffix of one of the functions in ``tascluster/taskgraph/target_tasks.py``.
If omitted, all tasks are targeted.
``target_tasks``
(optional) The target set method ``from_parameters`` reads the target set, as
a list of task labels, from this parameter.
``optimize_target_tasks``
(optional; default True) If true, then target tasks are eligible for
optimization.
