GitHub user codedbyed edited a discussion: Transpose UI to swap X and Y axis
### Description Currently, in the UI; X axis is the timeline and Y axis is the task. This becomes very difficult to monitor and search for runs when a DAG is a reusable/recallable DAG. ### Use Case Example of such a case is data warehouse ETL processing, where hundreds of tables are processed by calling the same reusable DAG. Swapping the X axis (tasks) - means that new tasks are now added vertically, along with the run names, and the Y axis would be the task stages. Example below, ### Curent UI | | Duration | 7:10 | 7:20 |7:30|7:40| 7:50| 7:60| .. | |--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--| | Task 1| 00:00:53 | run_id1 | run_id2 | run_id3 | run_id4 | run_id5| run_id6 | .. | | Task 2| 00:00:26| run_id1 | run_id2 | run_id3 | run_id4 | run_id5 | run_id6 | .. | | Task 3| 00:00:10 | run_id1 | run_id2 | run_id3 | run_id4 | run_id5 | run_id6 | .. | | Task 4| 00:00:00 | run_id1 | run_id2 | run_id3 | run_id4 | run_id5 | run_id6 | .. | ### Porposed UI | | Time| Task 1 Header | Task 2 Header | Task 3 Header | Task 4 Header | |--|--|--|--|--|--| | run_id1| 13:07:00 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | | run_id2| 13:07:10| Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | | run_id3| 13:07:20 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | | run_id4| 13:07:30 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | | run_id5| 13:07:40 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | | run_id6| 13:07:50 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | | run_id..| 13:08:00 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | ### Benefits - Possibility of searching for a dag name using browser's built-in Ctrl+F - Vertical scrolling (more intuitive) to refresh/load more latest runs versus horizontal scrolling. - Adding a search function within airflow to search a run by run_id GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/airflow/discussions/49678 ---- This is an automatically sent email for commits@airflow.apache.org.
