* ui: Add tab navigation to the browser history/URLs
This commit changes all our tabbed UI interfaces in the catalog to use
actual URL changes rather than only updating the content in the page
using CSS.
Originally we had decided not to add tab clicks into the browser
history for a variety of reasons. As the UI has progressed these tabs
are a fairly common pattern we are using and as the UI grows and
stabilizes around certain UX patterns we've decided to make these tabs
'URL changing'.
Pros:
- Deeplinking
- Potentially smaller Route files with a more concentrated scope of the
contents of a tab rather than the entire page.
- Tab clicks now go into your history meaning backwards and forwards
buttons take you through the tabs not just the pages.
- The majority of our partials are now fully fledged templates (Octane
🎉)
Cons:
- Tab clicks now go into your history meaning backwards and forwards
buttons take you through the tabs not just the pages. (Could be good and
bad from a UX perspective)
- Many more Route and Controller files (yet as mentioned above each of these
have a more reduced scope)
- Moving around the contents of these tabs, or changing the visual names
of them means updates to the URL structure, which then should
potentially entail redirects, therefore what things that seem like
straightforwards design reorganizations are now a little more impactful.
It was getting to the point that the Pros outweight the Cons
Apart from moving some files around we made a few more tiny tweaks to
get this all working:
- Our freetext-filter component now performs the initial search rather
than this happening in the Controller (remove of the search method in
the Controllers and the new didInsertElement hook in the component)
- All of the <TabNav>'s were changed to use its alternative href
approach.
- <TabPanel>s usage was mostly removed. This is th thing I dislike the
most. I think this needs removing, but I'd also like to remove the HTML
it creates. You'll see that every new page is wrappe din the HTML for
the old <TabPanel>, this is to continue to use the same HTML structure
and id's as before to avoid making further changes to any CSS that might
use this and being able to target things during testing. We could have
also removed these here, but it would have meant a much larger changeset
and can just as easily be done at a later date.
- We made a new `tabgroup` page-object component, which is almost
identical to the previous `radiogroup` one and injected that instead
where needed during testing.
* Make sure we pick up indexed routes when nspaces are enabled
* Move session invalidation to the child (session) route
* Revert back to not using didInsertElement for updating the searching
This adds a way for the searchable to remember the last search result
instead, which changes less and stick to the previous method of
searching.
Previously the tomography wasn't using ember `get` so proxy updates
(specifically here whilst receiving a blocking update) wasn't working.
This adds `get` here until we update to newer `get`less ember and also
refactors slightly removing `n` and using `distance.length` instead
Skipped tests are adding here to nag us to come back here at some point.
This commit includes several pieces of functionality to enable services
to be removed and the page to present information that this has happened
but also keep the deleted information on the page. Along with the more
usual blocking query based listing.
To enable this:
1. Implements `meta` on the model (only available on collections in
ember)
2. Adds new `catchable` ComputedProperty alongside a `listen` helper for
working with specific errors that can be thrown from EventSources in an
ember-like way. Briefly, normal computed properties update when a
property changes, EventSources can additionally throw errors so we can
catch them and show different visuals based on that.
Also:
Add support for blocking queries on the service instance detail page
1. Previous we could return undefined when a service instance has no
proxy, but this means we have nothing to attach `meta` to. We've changed
this to return an almost empty object, so with only a meta property.
At first glance there doesn't seem to be any way to provide a proxy
object to templates and be able to detect whether it is actually null
or not so we instead change some conditional logic in the templates to
detect the property we are using to generate the anchor.
2. Made a `pauseUntil` test helper function for steps where we wait for
things. This helps for DRYness but also means if we can move away from
setInterval to something else later, we can do it in one place
3. Whilst running into point 1 here, we managed to make the blocking
queries eternally loop. Whilst this is due to an error in the code and
shouldn't ever happen whilst in actual use, we've added an extra check
so that we only recur/loop the blocking query if the previous response has a
`meta.cursor`
Adds support for blocking queries on the node detail page (#5489)
1. Moves data re-shaping for the templates variables into a repository
so they are easily covered by blocking queries (into coordinatesRepo)
2. The node API returns a 404 as signal for deregistration, we also
close the sessions and coordinates blocking queries when this happens
1. Addition of external source icons for services marked as such.
2. New %with-tooltip css component (wip)
3. New 'no healthcheck' icon as external sources might not have
healthchecks, also minus icon on node cards in the service detail view
4. If a service doesn't have healthchecks, we use the [Services] tabs as the
default instead of the [Health Checks] tab in the Service detail page.
5. `css-var` helper. The idea here is that it will eventually be
replaced with pure css custom properties instead of having to use JS. It
would be nice to be able to build the css variables into the JS at build
time (you'd probably still want to specify in config which variables you
wanted available in JS), but that's possible future work.
Lastly there is probably a tiny bit more testing edits here than usual,
I noticed that there was an area where the dynamic mocking wasn't
happening, it was just using the mocks from consul-api-double, the mocks
I was 'dynamically' setting happened to be the same as the ones in
consul-api-double. I've fixed this here also but it wasn't effecting
anything until actually made certain values dynamic.
