Migrate licenses_list_views metric to internal events

Piotr Skorupa requested to merge psk-migrate-license-list-views-total-count into master

What does this MR do and why?

Related to gitlab-org/analytics-section/analytics-instrumentation/internal#712 (closed).

This migrates the counts.licenses_list_views total count metric to Internal Events, while keeping the original Redis key. Instead of migrating the key to the new format in TotalCountMetric, the new key is aliased in a YAML file and points to the old one, so that the count continues in the old key and we can keep the past count.

Before After

How to set up and validate locally

  1. Checkout master and fire the event a few times (visit the licenses list view).
  2. Run in console and note the value:
definition = Gitlab::Usage::MetricDefinition.definitions['counts.licenses_list_views']
Gitlab::Usage::Metric.new(definition).with_value
  1. Checkout MR branch and run the code in the console again. The value should be identical.
  2. Fire the event a few more times and check if the value got incremented.
