1283866 - Create a tool or workflow to help task developers conform to Treeherder pulse job YAML

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: Task Configuration, task)

Description

[Cameron Dawson [:camd]]

Right now we have a pulse-job.yml used by taskcluster-treeherder and Treeherder itself that jobs must conform to in order to be ingested into Treeherder.  However, task authors don't have a good way to confirm that their tasks meet the requirements.  We should develop some easy way to check against the fields against the yml file to ensure they're in compliance with Treeherder's (and perhaps Task Cluster's?) requirements.

I *think* that this might be something that we can implement in the in-tree scheduling for different task kinds.  When performing a transform or something on a task that is adding/manipulating treeherder specific bits, we could validate against a public schema.

Is this handled nowadays?

I don't think this is something we need to do anymore.. at least, this seems to be working fine at the moment.  Cam, please re-open if there's still something to do here, and try to explain it a little more?
