Use the JSON data class pattern for User, Role, and PlayerStats and move
them into lib/src/data. This means that User is purely data now and
can't reference role objects directly. To make it possible easily check
permissions attached to roles and store data only visible on the
controller on user objects a ControllerUser type is introduced which is
linked with the UserManager and can therefore reference role objects
directly.
Resolves#525.
Clean up the configuration for compiling TypeScript for the Web
interface to us its own tsconfig.web.json config files and reference the
TypeScript source files directly in the configuration and imports
instead of files compiled to dist.
To properly support recompliation with TypeScript's projects feature
each package's tsconfig.web.json file is set to output the build to
dist/web_build which is then ignored in .npmignore. Webpack is still
used to create the proper build in dist/web, so this is mainly to make
TypeScipt's compiler happy but it also allows the root tsconfig.json
file to include the web interface code, meaning running the build script
now also checks the typing of the web interface.
Final part of #491.
The control interface is required for adding handlers for message types
a plugin defines, but the plugins were loaded before the Control
instance was created. This meant there was no sensible way for web
plugins to register handlers for their own message types.
Move the creating of the Control instance to before plugins are loaded
and set this.control for web plugins before init is called.
These variables were intended to be globals declare in the global
namespace. That this ends up on the window object is an implementation
detail of JavaScript. Remove the window. prefix put in front of
staticRoot and webRoot and include the global declaration in the
TypeScript module.
Resolve circular dependency of controller depending on web_ui and web_ui
depending on controller by moving the type from controller that was used
in web_ui to lib.
Move BaseControllerPlugin to controller/src/BaseControllerPlugin.ts
Move BaseInstancePlugin to host/src/BaseInstancePlugin.ts
Move BaseControlPlugin to ctl/src/BaseCtlPlugin.ts
Move BaseWebPlugin to web_ui/src/BaseWebPlugin.ts
This solves the circular package dependency problem of the base plugins
needing types that are available only in the dependencies to lib.
Be consistent with the usage of tabs as indents in all JSON files in the
project. This makes it easier to configure editors to emit the right
indents when manually editing these files.
Remove extra whitespace, use more consistent spacing, add missing
semicolons, using dangling commas, break up long lines, consistent
multiline operator placement, add missing JSDoc strings and so on.

Only the controller has access to the secret needed to sign user tokens
so it makes sense for the user signing code to live in the controller.
This saves about 20ms on the time ctl takes to start up due to lib no
longer needing to import jsonwebtoken.
Move all functions and classes currently available through lib/name and
libName to be under a single flat namespace in lib. This make
reorganising the lib namespace much simpler as the location of symbols
can move without breaking the consumers of lib.
The multi-entrypoint design was already problematic for the web plugin
system which couldn't effectively use it due to how webpack's shared
module system is awkward to set up with multiple entrypoints per package.
- react: Update to new root rendering method
- react-router: Replace useHistory with useNavigate
- react-router: Replace <Switch> with <Routes>
- reimplement sticky notice from scratch in ModPackViewPage
- remove isomorphic-ws as it's latest version doesn't work and only
saves one line of code.
- remove import of antd.dark.css
- fix misc css breakages.
Update non-web related dependencies to their latest version were
possible. It appears yargs has changed its parsing of command line
options to no longer remove a layer of quotes.
It makes more sense to put the address first then have the large
structure to send as the second argument to sendTo. The opposite order
was originally chosen to be similar to that of sendto in BSD sockets.
Format arguments to have nested structures start on a new line instead
of inline to make it easier to see where the structures starts and what
structure it is.
The data class pattern used for request and event payloads require the
class names to be preserved as they are used for identifying the type of
the requests and events.
Split up the action of registring an event or request data class to be
decoded by the Link class and the action of registring a handler for
those requests and events. This moves the validation work from Link
instantiation time to startup initialisation which makes logic errors
fail on startup instead of failing instantiation of the link when a
connection attempt is made.
Additionally implement a partial validation logic for messages received
using the newly refactored message registration. This unfortunately
ended up merged with the registration refactor.
Reverse the direction of the API for sending messages from
messageDefinition.send(link, { content });
to
link.send(new MessageClass(content));
and convert all message definitions to use the JSON serialisable class
pattern and explicit registration of message handlers, along with a
end-to-end based routing of messages instead of link to link.
The experience I gained from the existing way messages were defined and
sent over links was that it was difficult to understand for people
unfamiliar with the system. The automatic registration of message
handlers ment that code was being called as if by magic from nowhere
with no easy way to discover it. The manual forwarding and rules for
what can be sent where and how obscured its working.
The use of pure JSON as both input and output from message handlers made
it tedious to work with. Data had to be manually converted between the
program representation and the over the wire format, which made handler
code unplesant to write. Particularly because the over the wire format
used snake_case while the program code uses camelCase for variables.
The idea behind the decision to do it this way was to make it more clear
which data came from the wire and which from the program, and while this
worked it didn't make message handlers any nicer to write.
The direction of the API and magic registration of message handlers also
meant that a future migration to TypeScript would be troublesome. While
it may be possible to implement, the degree of TypeScript magic required
would go starkly against the principle of keep it simple stupid.
By refactoring to using the JSON serialisable class pattern most of
these issues go away. There is no longer a need to distinguish the on
wire format of messages with the program representation because the only
place that deals with the wire format of messages are the toJSON and
fromJSON methods on the classes themselves. Message handlers will work
with proper instances of classes instead of raw data, something that
makes them easier to write, and trivial to type with TypeScript.
End-to-end routing also simplifies sending messages that need to do
mulitple hops to reach the destination. And removes the need for having
all messages be specified in plugin's info module, as they can be routed
without having to be parsed completely.
The explicit registration of message handlers is something that I
thought would be tedious boilerplate code that could be automated away.
But experience now shows it to be the opposite. Allthough dull
repetition, the purpose it serves is to link together the code in a way
that humans can easily find. With explicit registration searching the
name of the message handler in the editor will show the registration that
ties it together with the type of message it handles and the kind of
registration. With implicit registration searching the name of the
message handler turns up only the handler with no clue as to what calls
it.
Change the JSON seriasiable data classes to use an explicit static
fromJSON method and an optional toJSON method for turning them to and
from JSON.
This improves over the previous pattern of passing the JSON to the
constructor as it frees up the constructor to be able to take whichever
argument types suits the code instead of being beholden to the JSON
serialised form.
The role of a slave as a host for Factorio servers is not well reflected
in its name and has caused confusion among users. Rename slave to host
to better reflect its role as a host of Factorio servers.
The role of the master server as the party controlling every part of the
cluster is not well reflected in its name and has caused confusion among
users on several occasions. Rename master to controller to better
reflects its role.
Use exported settings prototypes and locale to format the settings UI to
with mod names, settings names, and select dropdowns. This is a crude
approximation of how the game presents these settings to the user.
Store the export manifest in ModPack to allow mulitple mod packs to have
different data exported. This is necessary as the export contains the
settings prototypes needed to create a proper UI for mod settings.
For now the useLocale and useItemMetadata interfaces uses the manifest
for a default mod pack set in the master config.
Mark mods in the UI and the mod-pack show ctl command that are missing
with a question mark and mark mods with a missmatched checksum with an
exclamation mark.
Validate sha1 sum matches for a mod used in ModsTable if it is present.
This prevents showing details for a zip file where the version matches
but the cheksum does not.
