1350014 - Enable a "What's Deployed" for KumaScript

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: KumaScript, enhancement)

Description

[John Whitlock [:jwhitlock]]

What problem would this feature solve?
======================================
It is challenging to determine what KumaScript macros are deployed to production, and what are pending deployment

Who has this problem?
=====================
Core contributors to MDN

How do you know that the users identified above have this problem?
==================================================================
Contributors ask how long it takes for their merged changes to become live, such as this thread:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.mdn/AJiqQ3AQz_I

How are the users identified above solving this problem now?
============================================================
You can see what Kuma version is deployed on MDN. because a file "revision.txt" includes the deployed commit hash:

https://whatsdeployed.io/?owner=mozilla&repo=kuma&name[]=Stage&url[]=https://developer.allizom.org/media/revision.txt&name[]=Prod&url[]=https://developer.mozilla.org/media/revision.txt

You can load the deployed commit in GitHub:

https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/commit/106cffbb01a52f28860e62b0408f304c86bfe68c

Then "Browse Files" to see all the files at that commit:

https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/tree/106cffbb01a52f28860e62b0408f304c86bfe68c

And then the KumaScript submodule checkout:

https://github.com/mozilla/kumascript/tree/2e455deee647076c95016547598d2f4d73dea6dd

You can then view the KumaScript repository history, to see what later commits are not included:

https://github.com/mozilla/kumascript/commits/master

Do you have any suggestions for solving the problem? Please explain in detail.
==============================================================================
If the deployment included writing the KumaScript revision to a file (such as kumascript-revision.txt), then the "What's Deployed" tool could be used to view what is deployed and what commits are pending. This change would be in chief_deploy.py:

https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/blob/master/scripts/chief_deploy.py#L107-L115

Is there anything else we should know?
======================================
Idea was brought up by shobson in a work week meeting about reviewing KumaScript PRs.
