Using `--source-file-path` we can combine data from multiple forecast runs into a single report. This becomes useful if we are using multiple CI/CD providers, such as GitLab and Jenkins, and wanted to get a holistic view of the runner usage across the providers. The way this works is the forecast command creates a `.json` file in a `jobs` directory for each command execution. The `--source-file-path` takes a glob pattern that will match all of the data files we want to include and combines them in a report. Most likely, the glob pattern will match `OUTPUT_DIR/**/jobs/*.json` where the `OUTPUT_DIR` is the value we used for `--output-dir`, which in this lab was `./tmp/forecast_reports`. We do not have multiple providers but we can still try it out because we have a data file at `tmp/forecast_reports/jobs/`!
Using `--source-file-path` we can combine data from multiple forecast runs into a single report. This becomes useful if we are using multiple CI/CD providers, such as GitLab and Jenkins, and wanted to get a holistic view of the runner usage across the providers. The way this works is the forecast command creates a `.json` file in a `jobs` directory for each command execution. The `--source-file-path` takes a space-delimited list of data file paths or a glob pattern that will match all of the data files we want to include and combine into a single report. We will use a glob pattern, which in general should match `OUTPUT_DIR/**/jobs/*.json` where the `OUTPUT_DIR` is the previous value used for `--output-dir`, which in this lab was `./tmp/forecast_reports`. We do not have multiple providers but we can still try it out because we have a data file at `tmp/forecast_reports/jobs/`!
- run `gh valet forecast --source-file-path tmp/**/jobs/*.json -o tmp/combined-forecast`
- Now we have a new report that was generated from all the data files that matched the glob pattern. Note this command does not introspect the CI/CD provider, it only operates on the data files it finds.
