In some cases, the area charts on a k8s resource details page will always be empty. For instance, a build that finished more than an hour ago. Currently, our queries only cover the past hour, and since a resource in a terminal state will never generate any new Prometheus data, the charts on that resource's page will always be empty an hour after it terminates. See https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CONSOLE-1752 for screenshot
Will address next sprint.
I haven't looked into a fix for this yet, but I know one issue we will have is that we only display the time on the x-axis of our utilization area charts. So if a build was not run 'today' or spans across multiple dates, the times displayed on the chart might be misleading. Since these charts are pretty compact, adding a date to the x-axis might be tricky, so we might need some design input on this. Maybe use a relative date string below the x-axis tick marks if the date !== today? So "a day ago", "a week ago", etc.
Started work on this, but clamping the time introduces a few edge cases that make this a bit more complicated than it seems. Will continue work in upcoming sprint.
Haven't circled back around to this yet as other 4.6 blockers were taking priority. I should be able to look at this next sprint.

Created attachment 1726169 [details] Build details charts when build ran one hour ago
CPU Usage charts still show 'No datapoints found.' assigning back for confirmation
let me know if the issue in comment 8 needs to be tracked in separate bug
(In reply to Yadan Pei from comment #8) > CPU Usage charts still show 'No datapoints found.' assigning back for > confirmation I think this should probably be tracked as a separate bug. I'd have to look further into why we aren't getting any data for CPU usage in some cases, but I don't think it's is related to the original bug. Our prometheus query time span is correct, as can be seen by the data on the other charts. The same start time and time span values are used for all charts on this page, so we are definitely querying CPU usage for the same timespan as the other utilization charts. I can think of 3 possibilities off the top of my head: 1. There is a problem with the CPU usage query 2. There is an edge case we aren't considering 3. Prometheus is legitimately returning no data for CPU usage in some cases. My guess is the third case. Some of the builds I tested only ran for a few seconds, and probably were not CPU intensive, so I'm thinking that CPU usage was so miniscule that Prometheus doesn't return any data.
When build runs one hour ago, the build charts are still visible on build details. And we show hour:minutes:seconds when build duration is short. The original issue is fixed, will open separate bug for comment 8 Verified on 4.7.0-0.nightly-2020-11-09-235738
