New performance dashboard front-end

Hi, over the holidays I’ve been working on a new and custom-made¹ front-end for our performance data, mainly to work around limitations of codespeed when it comes to understanding git, but also to add other features that I happen to want. I put a (not automatically updated) preview on http://deb.haskell.org/speed/ The code is not yet online, and there are some features missing (most notably: Working with multiple builders, the per-benchmark-graphs.) I’d like to have this hosted somewhere properly, so this is a request for the infrastructure team. I am a big fan of static content, so the system is a (shake-driven) batch process that generates a bunch of .json file. These can be served statically, together with the completely static index.html and a few javascript libraries. So it’s all very CDN-friendly. So all I need is * shell access to some machine, preferably with ghc installed * some disk space (actually quite a bit due to all the build logs, although that could be reduced by gzipping or reading them directly from the git repo²) * a new virtual host or a subdirectory of http://ghc.haskell.org/ where I can deploy my files to. * the possibility to either run a cronjob to poll for new logs, or maybe (later) some more sophisticated trigger. Would that be possible? Greetings, Joachim ¹ It is still a generic display of "values per git commit", and I hope I can keep it that way – maybe other projects can use it as well. ² currently at https://github.com/nomeata/ghc-speed-logs If the above becomes official, this probably also should move to git.haskell.org. The repo is 250M, but 7,2G checked out. I plan to make my code read the logs directly from the repo, and link to the cgit web interface to show the logs, so that it never has to be checked out. -- Joachim “nomeata” Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de • http://www.joachim-breitner.de/ Jabber: nomeata@joachim-breitner.de • GPG-Key: 0xF0FBF51F Debian Developer: nomeata@debian.org

Sounds amazing, thank you!

Joachim,
This looks awesome! Yes, we can set up you up with a small server soon
to do all this and keep it running in public.
FWIW, I'd rather not make a virtual proxy at ghc.haskell.org point to
your backend server, by routing '/speed' out to another server. What
about a new domain - https://speed.ghc.haskell.org ? This falls in
line with the new buildbot naming conventions we voted on a few weeks
ago, it's trivial to add (only a DNS entry), and is nicer IMO.

Hi, a small update on this: This will eventually be available at http://perf.ghc.haskell.org/ (or so it was promised to me :-). Until then, if you have your own projects where you want to use the tool (which is supposed to be somewhat generic), you can find instructions and code at: https://github.com/nomeata/gipeda I’ll add the relevant bit to our wiki once its live.
