I think Iโve come across a bug. When writing LookML, after saving changes and validating, when I click the โcommitโ button the validation begins again (before eventually showing the commit message dialog).
I thought this might be due to editing files in multiple tabs and the saves not being complete when I first validate but after trying a few times this happens every time.
This is an on-prem installation, version 7.8.25. If others arenโt seeing this then it could be our installation. Itโs certainly frustrating as the codebase is quite large and validation is slow so this is a double speed bump.
I noticed it as well. Seems redundant really
ah well then at least itโs not (just) our problemโฆ I did glance over the release notes and didnโt see anything but maybe itโs fixed in 7.10
Iโm glad someone mentioned this. Itโs been super annoying ๐ฆ
+1 on getting this bug fixed asap, it makes committing very frustrating. It is a known bug, I spoke to Looker support a few weeks ago about it and it doesnโt sound like it will be fixed until September ๐
We hear you, and we bumped into this internally as well (we do lots of LookML development ourselves!). We jumped on this and itโs been fixed on our internal branch, but wonโt be released until Looker 7.12โ Which will begin rolling out in 2 weeks, not September. Along with a few other IDE related goodies ๐.
thanks @izzymiller, glad itโs fixed and looking forward to the โother IDE related goodiesโ!
@izzymiller this is still happening on 7.12.18 version. We are self-hosted btw.
Hmm, this was definitely resolved as of 7.12. Itโs possible youโre seeing a new issue or something related! Is it exactly the same behavior?
