This filtering is the +difference between a full task graph and a target task graph. + +Filtering takes place on the basis of attributes. Each task has a dictionary +of attributes and filters over those attributes can be expressed in Python. A +task may not have a value for every attribute. + +The attributes, and acceptable values, are defined here. In general, attribute +names and values are the short, lower-case form, with underscores. + +kind +==== + +A task's ``kind`` attribute gives the name of the kind that generated it, e.g., +``build`` or ``spidermonkey``. + +run_on_projects +=============== + +The projects where this task should be in the target task set. This is how +requirements like "only run this on inbound" get implemented. These are +either project names or the aliases + + * `integration` -- integration branches + * `release` -- release branches including mozilla-central + * `all` -- everywhere (the default) + +For try, this attribute applies only if ``-p all`` is specified. All jobs can +be specified by name regardless of ``run_on_projects``. + +If ``run_on_projects`` is set to an empty list, then the task will not run +anywhere, unless its build platform is specified explicitly in try syntax. + +task_duplicates +=============== + +This is used to indicate that we want multiple copies of the task created. +This feature is used to track down intermittent job failures. + +If this value is set to N, the task-creation machinery will create a total of N +copies of the task. Only the first copy will be included in the taskgraph +output artifacts, although all tasks will be contained in the same taskGroup. + +While most attributes are considered read-only, target task methods may alter +this attribute of tasks they include in the target set. + +build_platform +============== + +The build platform defines the platform for which the binary was built. It is +set for both build and test jobs, although test jobs may have a different +``test_platform``. + +build_type +========== + +The type of build being performed. This is a subdivision of ``build_platform``, +used for different kinds of builds that target the same platform. Values are + + * ``debug`` + * ``opt`` + +test_platform +============= + +The test platform defines the platform on which tests are run. It is only +defined for test jobs and may differ from ``build_platform`` when the same binary +is tested on several platforms (for example, on several versions of Windows). +This applies for both talos and unit tests. + +Unlike build_platform, the test platform is represented in a slash-separated +format, e.g., ``linux64/opt``. + +unittest_suite +============== + +This is the unit test suite being run in a unit test task. For example, +``mochitest`` or ``cppunittest``. + +unittest_flavor +=============== + +If a unittest suite has subdivisions, those are represented as flavors. Not +all suites have flavors, in which case this attribute should be set to match +the suite. Examples: ``mochitest-devtools-chrome-chunked`` or ``a11y``. + +unittest_try_name +================= + +This is the name used to refer to a unit test via try syntax. It +may not match either of ``unittest_suite`` or ``unittest_flavor``. + +talos_try_name +============== + +This is the name used to refer to a talos job via try syntax. + +test_chunk +========== + +This is the chunk number of a chunked test suite (talos or unittest). Note +that this is a string! + +e10s +==== + +For test suites which distinguish whether they run with or without e10s, this +boolean value identifies this particular run. + +image_name +========== + +For the ``docker_image`` kind, this attribute contains the docker image name. + +nightly +======= + +Signals whether the task is part of a nightly graph. Useful when filtering +out nightly tasks from full task set at target stage. |
