Action Details¶
Experimental
This feature is experimental. It may be incomplete or unstable, and may be removed in the future.
The action details page presents all of the input into an action before execution. It renders this page using data from the cluster's Content Addressable Storage. This may be useful for debugging actions that are executing remotely.
The details on this page include: - Platform properties - Whether the action result should be cached - Action timeout - Command arguments - Environment variables set during command execution - Expected output files and paths - Virtual file system statistics - Details about files present in the virtual file system
This page is rendered using the following remote execution protobuf definitions fetched from the Content Addressable Storage:
- build.bazel.remote.execution.v2.Action
- build.bazel.remote.execution.v2.Command
- build.bazel.remote.execution.v2.Directory (for the input tree)
Purpose¶
- Allow build maintainers to debug build configuration errors.
- Allow engineers to debug code errors in further detail.
Known Issues¶
- Action results are not yet displayed, only the action inputs.
