Inconsistency of possible build states?

[cyqsimon]

I was doing some CI scripting (see here) and therefore was searching through COPR source code to find out what the possible build states are.

I ran into those two different definitions of build states. In particular, imported and unknown differ.

copr/common/copr_common/enums.py

Lines 85 to 98 in c381e34

	class StatusEnum(with_metaclass(EnumType, object)):
	vals = {
	"failed": 0, # build failed
	"succeeded": 1, # build succeeded
	"canceled": 2, # build was canceled
	"running": 3, # SRPM or RPM build is running
	"pending": 4, # build(-chroot) is waiting to be picked
	"skipped": 5, # if there was this package built already
	"starting": 6, # build was picked by worker but no VM initialized yet
	"importing": 7, # SRPM is being imported into dist-git
	"forked": 8, # build(-chroot) was forked
	"waiting": 9, # build(-chroot) is waiting for something else to finish
	"unknown": 1000, # undefined
	}

copr/frontend/coprs_frontend/coprs/filters.py

Lines 206 to 219 in c381e34

	description_map = {
	"failed": "Build failed. See logs for more details.",
	"succeeded": "Successfully built.",
	"canceled": "The build has been cancelled manually.",
	"running": "Build in progress.",
	"pending": "Build is waiting in queue for a backend worker.",
	"skipped": ("This package was skipped, see the reason "
	"for each chroot separately."),
	"starting": "Backend worker is trying to acquire a builder machine.",
	"importing": "Package sources are being imported into Copr DistGit.",
	"waiting": "Task is waiting for something else to finish.",
	"imported": "Package was successfully imported into Copr DistGit.",
	"forked": "Build has been forked from another build.",
	}

I would like to inquire which one I should reference, and also whether this is something that should be updated. Thanks.

Thank you for the question. The Enum defined in copr common is the "definition" that other components "respect" -> filters is just "for the web-UI" description (we should move these two things onto one place one day).
