flutter-pr-checks-finder

name flutter-pr-checks-finder description Find failing checks on a Flutter PR and locate the corresponding LUCI log URLs. Flutter PR Checks Finder Prerequisites gh (GitHub CLI) must be installed and authenticated. If not in your PATH, check common locations like /opt/homebrew/bin/gh on macOS or C:\Program Files\GitHub CLI\gh.exe on Windows. Access to curl or similar tool to fetch raw logs from LUCI. Workflow 1. Find Failing Checks You can use the gh CLI if it's installed and authenticated, or use direct HTTP requests to the GitHub API as a fallback. Option A: Using gh CLI (Preferred) Run the following command to list checks: gh pr checks <PR_NUMBER> Option B: Using GitHub API via HTTP If gh is not available, you can use read_url_content or a similar method to interact with the public GitHub API: Find the PR SHA : Make an HTTP request to: https://api.github.com/repos/flutter/flutter/pulls/<PR_NUMBER> Extract the head.sha field. List Check Runs : Make an HTTP request to: https://api.github.com/repos/flutter/flutter/commits/<PR_SHA>/check-runs Parse the JSON response. CRITICAL : You must handle pagination to avoid missing failures! Check the total_count field. If it is greater than the number of items in the check_runs array (typically capped at 100 or what you set with per_page ), make additional HTTP requests by appending ?per_page=100&page=<N> to the URL for each subsequent page until all check runs are fetched. Identify all checks that have failed (i.e., where conclusion is failure ). Identify all checks that have failed. 2. Retrieve Failure Logs For each failing check: Find the Log URL : Look for the target URL or link associated with the check. The flutter-dashboard link typically appears as "View more details on flutter-dashboard" at the bottom of the check view on GitHub. Alternatively, you can reconstruct the link to the LUCI page based on the name of the failing check and the build number if available. Example LUCI URL structure: https://ci.chromium.org/ui/p/flutter/builders/try/<Builder Name>/<Build Number>/overview Build Raw Log URL : Manual : Reconstruct the raw log URL by appending ?format=raw to the log URL or by following the pattern: https://logs.chromium.org/logs/flutter/buildbucket/cr-buildbucket/<Build ID>/+/u/<Step Name>/stdout?format=raw Fetch Raw Logs : Use curl or similar tool to fetch the content of the raw log URL. CRITICAL : You must use the raw log URL to avoid HTML formatting and truncated output. Do NOT rely solely on the check summary in the GitHub API, as it may be truncated or lack full context. Builder to Step Name Mapping [!NOTE] Step names can be very specific and hard to guess. This section documents patterns to help find them. Recipes & Tools flutter_drone Recipe Description: Originates from the cocoon or recipes repository. It is typically used for running sharded framework tests and lints (like analyze , test_general ) as specified in .ci.yaml (root) . Pattern: run test.dart for <shard> shard and subshard <subshard> URL Transformation: Spaces are replaced by underscores. Default: If subshard is not specified, it defaults to None . Example: For Linux analyze (shard: analyze , no subshard), the URL step name is run_test.dart_for_analyze_shard_and_subshard_None . builder.py & Related Recipes Description: Found in the flutter/engine repository (or recipes repository) and used to execute builds and tests according to target JSON configurations in the builders folder directory. Pattern: Typically the task name specified in the JSON configuration, often prefixed with test: . URL Transformation: Spaces are replaced by underscores. Gotcha: If the test name already starts with test: in the JSON file, the recipe might still add the prefix again (e.g., test:_test:_Check_formatting ). tester.py Description: A common helper script in the engine's CI recipes used to execute tests. Pattern: Run <shard> tests or Run <shard> <subshard> tests . URL Transformation: Spaces are replaced by underscores. Locating Exact Names in Engine If guessing fails, find the exact test and task names in the engine configuration: Look up the builder in .ci.yaml (engine) to find its config_name property. Locate the corresponding JSON file in the builders folder directory. Read the JSON file to find the tests array and the specific tasks listed within them. Fallback If read_url_content fails with 404 on guessed step names, you may need to find the step name from the LUCI overview page or other sources.
