HTTP Archive BigQuery pipeline with Dataform

This repository handles the HTTP Archive data pipeline, which takes the results of the monthly HTTP Archive run and saves this to the httparchive dataset in BigQuery.

Pipelines

The pipelines are run in Dataform service in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and are kicked off automatically on crawl completion and other events. The code in the main branch is used on each triggered pipeline run.

Triggering workflows

Contributing

Dataform development

1. Create new dev workspace in Dataform.
2. Make adjustments to the dataform configuration files and manually run a workflow to verify.
3. Push all your changes to a dev branch & open a PR with the link to the BigQuery artifacts generated in the test workflow.

Dataform development workspace hints

1. In workflow settings vars:

   • set env_name: dev to process sampled data in dev workspace.
   • change today variable to a month in the past. May be helpful for testing pipelines based on chrome-ux-report data.

2. definitions/extra/test_env.sqlx script helps to setup the tables required to run pipelines when in dev workspace. It's disabled by default.

Error Monitoring

The issues within the pipeline are being tracked using the following alerts:

1. the event trigger processing fails - Dataform Trigger Function Error
2. a job in the workflow fails - "Dataform Workflow Invocation Failed

Error notifications are sent to #10x-infra Slack channel.
