[Buildbot-devel] How to create sub-columns for each buildslaves under the same builders in waterfall

[Alexander O'Donovan-Jones]

In my implementation of BB, that would only be somewhat useful, since I have many machines, that can do the same generic tasks. In this instance, I only need one of them to actually do the work, so would only want one entry in the waterfall.
Some breakdown between min(1, # of build requests) would possibly work, so that it would scale to show parallel builds as parallel columns.

Hi,

I'm very new to buildbot.
Right now I'm reading through the source code of waterfall.py.

My approach is:
When waterfall tries to draw the boxes (cells),
first check the number of buildslaves for that builder,
then draws the boxes with status/info for each buildslaves.
Then for BuildBox (builder cell), do column span for the number of buildslaves.


My biggest problem is that I'm not very familiar with buildbot and python,
so wonder anyone could give me some tips or directions.
That would be very helpful.


Thanks,

Rick

That would be interesting but that functionality doesn't exist in the
waterfall yet.

M-A
