This adds a Data Pipeline Topology section to paasta status output for
SQLClient Flink jobs when using the -vv flag. The section displays
source and sink Kafka topics with helpful links and commands.
Also adds Job Parallelism column to the Jobs table for SQLClient services,
showing the configured parallelism from srv-configs.
Features:
- Parses SQLClient job config from srv-configs YAML files
- Shows source and sink topology summary
- Displays schema IDs, namespaces, sources, and aliases
- Generates Pipeline Studio links (smart routing based on schema_id vs namespace/source)
- Generates datapipe schema describe commands
- Generates datapipe stream tail commands
- Shows primary keys for sink topics
- Shows job parallelism in Jobs table (sqlclient only)
Implementation details:
- Reads from /nail/srv/configs/{service}/{instance}/job.d/{instance}.yaml
- Uses service_configuration_lib.read_yaml_file() for proper YAML handling
- Handles YAML float parsing (alias: 2.0 becomes string "2.0")
- Only displays when verbose >= 2 and service == "sqlclient"
- Positioned after monitoring links, before State/Pods/Jobs info
- Parallelism shown only for sqlclient service
Example output:

Reduce State column width from 11 to 8 characters when parallelism is displayed, creating tighter spacing between columns. Before: Job Name State Parallelism Job ID Started happyhour Running 1 9e3d6... 2025-11-18... After: Job Name State Parallelism Job ID Started happyhour Running 1 9e3d6d273acb86656ac18171674595bc 2025-11-18 10:16:01 (16 hours ago) This provides better visual alignment and makes the parallelism value appear closer to the state column.
Analyzes Flink slot utilization and suggests taskmanager configuration optimizations for sqlclient jobs when using -vv flag. Features: - Shows current taskmanager instances, slots, and utilization - Detects overprovisioning (< 50% utilization) and suggests reducing instances - Detects insufficient headroom (> 90% utilization) and suggests adding capacity - Provides exact yelpsoa-configs changes needed - Only shows suggestions when optimization is possible Example outputs: 1. Overprovisioned (suggests reducing): Current: 12 taskmanagers, 48 slots, 10 used (21% utilization) Suggests: Reduce to 4 taskmanagers for 75% utilization 2. Insufficient headroom (suggests increasing): Current: 12 taskmanagers, 48 slots, 48 used (100% utilization) Suggests: Increase to 16 taskmanagers for failover capacity 3. Optimal (no suggestion): Current: 1 taskmanager, 1 slot, 1 used (100% utilization) Message: Resource utilization is optimal New functions: - analyze_slot_utilization(): Calculates metrics and recommendations - format_resource_optimization(): Formats output for display
For SQLClient services, make config links more precise:
1. Yelpsoa configs: Link directly to the line number in flinkeks-{cluster}.yaml
- Searches for 'instance:' line using grep
- Falls back to directory link if line not found
2. Srv configs: Link to the specific instance directory
- Links to ecosystem/{ecosystem}/sqlclient/{instance}
Examples:
- Prod: yelpsoa-configs/blob/master/sqlclient/flinkeks-pnw-prod.yaml#L21
- Devc: yelpsoa-configs/blob/master/sqlclient/flinkeks-pnw-devc.yaml#L18
- Srv: srv-configs/tree/master/ecosystem/prod/sqlclient/happyhour
This saves developers time by jumping directly to the relevant config
instead of having to search through the file or directory.
Use /nail/etc/srv-configs/.client/public/ecosystem/{ecosystem}/... directly
instead of checking multiple fallback paths. This location contains all
instances (260 vs 166 in hiera-merged location) and simplifies the code.
Benefits:
- Works for all SQLClient instances (not just deployed to current box)
- Removes fallback path logic (~15 lines)
- Single source of truth for configs
- Handles instance/job name mismatch with glob fallback
Also removes over-utilization warnings and simplifies optimization output:
- Only suggests reducing overprovisioned resources (< 50% utilization)
- Removes confusing warnings for high utilization (> 90%)
- Simplifies config change output (removes 'File:' line)
Tested with:
- happyhour: parallelism=1 ✓
- ad_indexing_sync_bounded_business_features: parallelism=5 ✓
- All 24 tests passing ✓
For SQLClient jobs that use UDFs, add a link to the UDF plugin code
in the sqlclient_plugins repository.
Features:
- Extracts plugin_name from job config's udf_config section
- Generates GitHub link to misc/sqlclient_plugins/tree/main/udf/{plugin_name}
- Only displays when UDF is configured
- Shows below Srv configs link with -v flag
Example output:
Yelpsoa configs: https://github.yelpcorp.com/.../sqlclient/flinkeks-pnw-prod.yaml#L2269
Srv configs: https://github.yelpcorp.com/.../srv-configs/.../sqlclient/account_search_v2
UDF: https://github.yelpcorp.com/misc/sqlclient_plugins/tree/main/udf/account_search_formatting_udfs
New function:
- get_sqlclient_udf_plugin(): Extracts UDF plugin name from job config
Tested with:
- account_search_v2: Shows UDF link ✓
- happyhour: No UDF, no link shown ✓
Shows Flink consumer group name with links to monitoring tools in the
Data Pipeline Topology section.
Features:
- Generates consumer group name: flink.{service}.{instance}.{job_name}
- Uses actual job name from Flink (handles instance/job name mismatch)
- Kafka View link (environment-aware):
* Prod: http://kafka-view.admin.yelp.com (scribe.uswest2-prod)
* Devc: http://kafka-view.paasta-norcal-devc.yelp (buff-high.uswest1-devc)
- Grafana consumer metrics link with pre-filtered consumer group
Example output:
Data Pipeline Topology:
Sources: 1 topics
Sinks: 1 topics
Consumer Group: flink.sqlclient.happyhour.happyhour
Kafka View: http://kafka-view.admin.yelp.com/clusters/scribe.uswest2-prod/groups/flink.sqlclient.happyhour.happyhour
Grafana: https://grafana.yelpcorp.com/d/kcHXkIBnz/consumer-metrics?...
Tested with:
- happyhour (prod): ✓
- happyhour (devc): ✓
- ad_indexing_sync_bounded_business_features: ✓
Adds comprehensive unit tests for recent SQLClient features: TestGetSqlclientUdfPlugin (2 tests): - Test extracting UDF plugin name from job config - Test returning None when no UDF configured TestAnalyzeSlotUtilization (3 tests): - Test underutilized (25%) suggests reducing instances - Test overutilized (100%) calculates increase suggestion - Test optimal utilization (70%) returns no suggestion TestFormatResourceOptimization (2 tests): - Test formatting optimization suggestions with config changes - Test formatting when utilization is optimal TestFormatKafkaTopics consumer group (2 tests): - Test prod environment uses kafka-view.admin.yelp.com - Test devc environment uses kafka-view.paasta-norcal-devc.yelp All 22 tests passing.
Improves code maintainability and testability by:
1. Extract URL constants (at top of file):
- PIPELINE_STUDIO_BASE
- KAFKA_VIEW_PROD_DOMAIN / KAFKA_VIEW_DEVC_DOMAIN
- GRAFANA_BASE
- SRV_CONFIGS_FULL_REPO
2. Extract topic formatting helper:
- _format_topic_links_and_commands(): Generates Pipeline Studio link,
datapipe describe/tail commands (eliminates ~60 lines of duplication)
3. Split format_kafka_topics into smaller functions:
- _format_consumer_group_info(): Consumer group with Kafka View/Grafana links
- _format_source_topics(): Formats all source topics
- _format_sink_topics(): Formats all sink topics
- format_kafka_topics(): Main orchestration (167 lines → 35 lines)
Benefits:
- Eliminated code duplication (sources vs sinks formatting)
- Easier to maintain (URL changes in one place)
- More testable (each helper function tested independently)
- Clearer separation of concerns
Tests added (8 new tests, 42 total):
- TestFormatTopicLinksAndCommands: Test link/command generation (2 tests)
- TestFormatConsumerGroupInfo: Test consumer group formatting (2 tests)
- TestFormatSourceTopics: Test source formatting (2 tests)
- TestFormatSinkTopics: Test sink formatting (2 tests)
All 42 tests passing ✓
No functional changes, output identical to before.

Fixes CI failures from pre-commit hooks: 1. Remove unused imports: - re (not used) - subprocess (not used) - yaml (using service_configuration_lib.read_yaml_file instead) 2. Fix f-strings without placeholders (flake8 F541): - Line 665: Remove f-prefix from static string - Line 902: Remove f-prefix from static string - Line 905: Remove f-prefix from static string - Line 913: Remove f-prefix from static string 3. Add autospec=True to all mock.patch calls (5 occurrences): - Ensures mocks have same interface as original objects - Required by patch-enforce-autospec pre-commit hook All 42 tests still passing after fixes.
Add explicit type annotations for output variables in helper functions: - _format_source_topics: output: List[str] = [] - _format_sink_topics: output: List[str] = [] This resolves mypy errors: var-annotated: Need type annotation for 'output' All 42 tests still passing.
