Introduction

============

This describes the types of build and release metrics that can be collected using Helium and a Diamonds installation and how they can be collected.

Helium configuration

====================

To enable logging to diamonds from Helium one needs to ensure that:

* The properties :hlm-p:`diamonds.host` and :hlm-p:`diamonds.port` are set correctly.

* By default they are taken from ``helium/tools/common/companyproperties.ant.xml``, but can be overridden by using:

  * **Command line**    

    For example, if the Diamonds server IP address changed to ``new.diamonds.server:newport`` then you would use:

    * *hlm.bat -Ddiamonds.host=new.diamonds.server -Ddiamonds.port=newport*

  * **ANT team file** 

    For example, if the Diamonds server IP address changed to ``new.diamonds.server:newport`` then you would put the following lines in your ``<team>.ant.xml``::

    <property name="diamonds.host" value="new.diamonds.server"/>*  

    <property name="diamonds.port" value="newport"/>*

Diamonds server configuration

=============================

Config file: ``helium/config/diamonds_config.xml.ftl``.

Properties need to be defined for successful logging:

-----------------------------------------------------

   :header: "Property name", "Description"

   "``diamonds.host``", "Diamonds server address"

   "``diamonds.port``", "Server port number"

   "``diamonds.path``", "Builds path in Diamonds server"

Metrics

=======

Metrics name: Build duration

----------------------------

Description

~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Build duration in hours as a function of time.

Collection method

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The started time and finished time are uploaded to diamonds automatically from Helium. 

Location in Diamonds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Diamonds, Builds->Summary.  

    For categorization by product programs, Build->Click "category" hyperlink. For 

    categorization by build accelerators, Build->Other->Click "Build system" hyperlink.

RVCT compiler warnings 

----------------------

Description

~~~~~~~~~~~

    Number of build warnings in SW build - RVCT compiler warnings to tell about the quality of the software.

Collection Method

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Number of RVCT bad warnings, warnings and errors are send to diamond aumatically from Helium after each build.

Location in Diamonds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Diamonds, Builds->Summary->Compilation error summary.

Metrics name: "number of object files" and "number of generated files"

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Description

~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Number of object files and generated files for a build    

Collection method

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Necessary data are collected from build information automatically    

    Based on helium/config/diamonds_config.xml.ftl cofiguration, Helium automatically sends the start and end time of a stage to diamonds.

Location in Diamonds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Diamonds, Builds->Others->Object files & Generated files.  

Metrics name: Build stage duration

----------------------------------

Description

~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Date and time of start and finish. A=Date and time of start B= Date and time of finish.

    Metric = B-A calculated for each build stages. In the graph only the 4 main stages are shown.\

        * *1. pre-build (Synergy check outs and snapshots, build area preparation)*

        * *2. build (main build)*

        * *3. post build (Post build, China, Japan, EE images, EE zip,  Localization, Localized roms)*

        * *4. release to channels (db, ftp, network disk)*

Collection method

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The started time and finished time are uploaded to diamonds automatically from Helium. 

Location in Diamonds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Diamonds, Builds->Summary. Click "Stages>>"

Metrics name: API Usage

----------------------------------

Description

~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Types of api are private, internal, domain and sdk. Illegal API is (internal+private), if  any illegal api exists it will show the Illegal API's name with path.

Collection method

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If disable.analysis.tool is not set, data will be uploaded to diamonds automatically from Helium. 

Location in Diamonds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Diamonds, Builds->Other->API usage  

Metrics name: Build tags

------------------------

Description

~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Build tags are used to group builds for metric collection purposes.

Collection method

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    To send custom build tags to Diamonds the property diamonds.build.tags should be set as follows:

     * For a single build tag (e.g. "build_tag1") -> hlm -Ddiamonds.build.tags="build_tag1" 

     * For multiple build tags (e.g. "build_tag1" and "build_tagN") -> hlm -Ddiamonds.build.tags="build_tag1,build_tagN" 

    Note:

    * Build tags should not exceed 50 characters.

    * Duplicate build tags will be ignored. 

    * If an "Available Tag" is set, then in Diamonds it gets removed from that list and transferred to "Build's Tags" list.

Location in Diamonds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Diamonds, Builds->Tags->Build's Tags.  

    For categorization by tags, Click Builds->"Navigation" pane->"Build Archives"->by tags 

Metrics name: Information about "base environment" 

--------------------------------------------------

Description

~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Information about what "base environment" is unzipped.

Collection method

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Necessary data are collected from build information automatically if currentRelease.xml exists in the environment. 

Location in Diamonds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Diamonds, Builds->Content. See "Input" for s60.
