# Forecast the usage of a GitLab namespace
In this lab we will us the `forecast` command to forecast potential GitHub Actions usage by computing metrics from historical pipeline data in the GitLab instance. The metrics will be stored on disk in a markdown file and include job metrics for execution time, queue time, and concurrency. We will look at each of these metrics in this lab.

## Prepare for forecast
Before we can run the forecast we need to answer a few questions so we can construct the correct command
1) What namespace do we want to run the forecast for? __Valet__.
2) What timeframe do we want to forecast?
1) What namespace do we want to run the forecast for? __Valet__. This is the only group in the demo GitLab instance.
2) What is the date we want to start forecasting from? __08-02-2022__. This is around but before the time the data was populated on our demo GitLab instance.
3) Where do we want to store the results? __./tmp/forecast__. This can be any valid path on the system, but for simplicity it is recommend to use a directory in the root of the codespace workspace.
