1250268 - Loading graphs for awsy from alerts view doesn't work

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tree Management :: Perfherder, defect)

Description

[William Lachance (:wlach)]

With bug 1249826, we attempt to autoload the other branches of the series which alerted. This doesn't work for awsy though, as we don't report results for fx-team with that one.

There are a bunch of approaches possible:

1. The simplest is probably to render the series we *did* manage to load, in the graphs view, leaving everything else blank.
2. If we wanted to be more ambitious, we could perhaps add "empty series" placeholders on the left-- I think graphserver does something like this.
3. Modify the alerts view to check whether specific series exist before/during the generation of the graphs URL: the problem there is that there are potentially many URLs to generate.

Going to think on this a bit.

I solved this problem with a talos-specific hack. In principle it would be nice to figure out a generalized solution to this problem, in practice there are so many higher-priority things to worry about that I'm just going to mark this as fixed and move on for now.
