Make /srv/mediawiki editable for parsoid devs on mw-parsoid
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

Currently we have migrated succesfully our rt-testing from parsoidtestXXXX/testreduceXXXX nodes to k8s (mw-parsoid deployment) and cloudvps.
There is one workflow issue raised from our devs regarding editing /srv/mediawiki for debug purposes.

In parsoidtest nodes devs can temporarily edit /srv/mediawiki to add eg a log line to debug an issue.
Currently this is not possible because the /srv/mediawiki codebase on mw-parsoid pods is the one provided by the image.

Can we use the same setup mw-experimental has that allows overriding /srv/mediawiki temporarily and mounts the mw codebase in the k8s deployment?

Given that this is not something that we generally encourage (its more of a last resort in case we need to debug something complicated) it might also be an option to default to false and let devs know that they can override it by changing the helmfile value (and then revert it).

Also that protects us from the case were multiple devs access mw-experimental codebase at the same time.
