## About the changes
This small improvement aims to help developers when instantiating
services. They need to be constructed without injecting services or
stores created elsewhere so they can be bound to the same transactional
scope.
This suggests that you need to create the services and stores on your
own
## About the changes
This splits the interfaces for import and export, especially because the
import functionality has to be replaced in enterprise repo.
This is a breaking change because of the service renames, but I'll have
the PR for the other repository ready so we reduce the time to fix. I
intentionally avoided doing it backward compatible because of time.
## About the changes
This transactional implementation decorates a service with a
transactional method that removes the need to start transactions in the
method using the service.
This is a gradual rollout with a feature toggle, just because
transactions are not easy.
This commit changes our linter/formatter to biome (https://biomejs.dev/)
Causing our prehook to run almost instantly, and our "yarn lint" task to
run in sub 100ms.
Some trade-offs:
* Biome isn't quite as well established as ESLint
* Are we ready to install a different vscode plugin (the biome plugin)
instead of the prettier plugin
The configuration set for biome also has a set of recommended rules,
this is turned on by default, in order to get to something that was
mergeable I have turned off a couple the rules we seemed to violate the
most, that we also explicitly told eslint to ignore.
https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1403/consider-refactoring-the-way-tags-are-fetched-for-the-events
This adds 2 methods to `EventService`:
- `storeEvent`;
- `storeEvents`;
This allows us to run event-specific logic inside these methods. In the
case of this PR, this means fetching the feature tags in case the event
contains a `featureName` and there are no tags specified in the event.
This prevents us from having to remember to fetch the tags in order to
store feature-related events except for very specific cases, like the
deletion of a feature - You can't fetch tags for a feature that no
longer exists, so in that case we need to pre-fetch the tags before
deleting the feature.
This also allows us to do any event-specific post-processing to the
event before reaching the DB layer.
In general I think it's also nicer that we reference the event service
instead of the event store directly.
There's a lot of changes and a lot of files touched, but most of it is
boilerplate to inject the `eventService` where needed instead of using
the `eventStore` directly.
Hopefully this will be a better approach than

This PR updates the back-end handling of feature naming patterns to add
implicit leading `^`s and trailing `$`s to the regexes when comparing
them.
It also adds tests for the new behavior, both for new flag names and for
examples.
## Discussion points
Regarding stripping incoming ^ and $: We don't actually need to strip
incoming `^`s and `$`s: it appears that `^^^^^x$$$$$` is just as valid
as `^x$`. As such, we can leave that in. However, if we think it's
better to strip, we can do that too.
Second, I'm considering moving the flag naming validation into a
dedicated module to encapsulate everything a little better. Not sure if
this is the time or where it would live, but open to hearing
suggestions.
This PR adds feature name pattern validation to the import validation
step. When errors occur, they are rendered with all the offending
features, the pattern to match, plus the pattern's description and
example if available.
To achieve this I've added an extra method to the feature toggle service
that checks feature names without throwing errors (because catching `n`
async errors in a loop became tricky and hard to grasp). This method is
also reused in the existing feature name validation method and handles
the feature enabled chcek.
In doing so, I've also added tests to check that the pattern is applied.
This PR fixes an issue where trying to use an admin token to import
features via the API resulted in a 500 (due to missing properties).
The solution is to catch when the user is using and admin token in the
controller, throw a 400, and tell them to use personal access tokens or
service accounts.
The PR includes a new test file for this specific use case. We don't
really test these cases many other places, so it seemed the logical
choice.
This PR attempts to improve the error handling introduced in #3607.
## About the changes
## **tl;dr:**
- Make `UnleashError` constructor protected
- Make all custom errors inherit from `UnleashError`.
- Add tests to ensure that all special error cases include their
relevant data
- Remove `PasswordMismatchError` and `BadRequestError`. These don't
exist.
- Add a few new error types: `ContentTypeError`, `NotImplementedError`,
`UnauthorizedError`
- Remove the `...rest` parameter from error constructor
- Add an unexported `GenericUnleashError` class
- Move OpenAPI conversion function to `BadDataError` clas
- Remove explicit `Error.captureStackTrace`. This is done automatically.
- Extract `getPropFromString` function and add tests
### **In a more verbose fashion**
The main thing is that all our internal errors now inherit
from`UnleashError`. This allows us to simplify the `UnleashError`
constructor and error handling in general while still giving us the
extra benefits we added to that class. However, it _does_ also mean that
I've had to update **all** existing error classes.
The constructor for `UnleashError` is now protected and all places that
called that constructor directly have been updated. Because the base
error isn't available anymore, I've added three new errors to cover use
cases that we didn't already have covered: `NotImplementedError`,
`UnauthorizedError`, `ContentTypeError`. This is to stay consistent in
how we report errors to the user.
There is also an internal class, `GenericUnleashError` that inherits
from the base error. This class is only used in conversions for cases
where we don't know what the error is. It is not exported.
In making all the errors inherit, I've also removed the `...rest`
parameter from the `UnleashError` constructor. We don't need this
anymore.
Following on from the fixes with missing properties in #3638, I have
added tests for all errors that contain extra data.
Some of the error names that were originally used when creating the list
don't exist in the backend. `BadRequestError` and
`PasswordMismatchError` have been removed.
The `BadDataError` class now contains the conversion code for OpenAPI
validation errors. In doing so, I extracted and tested the
`getPropFromString` function.
### Main files
Due to the nature of the changes, there's a lot of files to look at. So
to make it easier to know where to turn your attention:
The changes in `api-error.ts` contain the main changes: protected
constructor, removal of OpenAPI conversion (moved into `BadDataError`.
`api-error.test.ts` contains tests to make sure that errors work as
expected.
Aside from `get-prop-from-string.ts` and the tests, everything else is
just the required updates to go through with the changes.
## Discussion points
I've gone for inheritance of the Error type over composition. This is in
large part because throwing actual Error instances instead of just
objects is preferable (because they collect stack traces, for instance).
However, it's quite possible that we could solve the same thing in a
more elegant fashion using composition.
## For later / suggestions for further improvements
The `api-error` files still contain a lot of code. I think it might be
beneficial to break each Error into a separate folder that includes the
error, its tests, and its schema (if required). It would help decouple
it a bit.
We don't currently expose the schema anywhere, so it's not available in
the openapi spec. We should look at exposing it too.
Finally, it would be good to go through each individual error message
and update each one to be as helpful as possible.
### What
We've had this marked as deprecated through our v4, this PR removes it.
### Worth noting
This updates the deprecation notices with removal notices in the
documentation as well.
### Considerations
The tags API is still located under
/api/admin/features/{featureName}/tags. It should be moved to
/api/admin/projects/{project}/features/{featureName}/tags. I vote we do
that in a separate PR, we'd probably also need to deprecate the existing
tags endpoints for v5 and remove in v6. We could use 308s to signify
that they are moved.

This PR implements the first version of a suggested unification (and
documentation) of the errors that we return from the API today.
The goal is for this to be the first step towards the error type defined
in this internal [linear
task](https://linear.app/unleash/issue/1-629/define-the-error-type
'Define the new API error type').
## The state of things today
As things stand, we currently have no (or **very** little) documentation
of the errors that are returned from the API. We mention error codes,
but never what the errors may contain.
Second, there is no specified format for errors, so what they return is
arbitrary, and based on ... Who knows? As a result, we have multiple
different errors returned by the API depending on what operation you're
trying to do. What's more, with OpenAPI validation in the mix, it's
absolutely possible for you to get two completely different error
objects for operations to the same endpoint.
Third, the errors we do return are usually pretty vague and don't really
provide any real help to the user. "You don't have the right
permissions". Great. Well what permissions do I need? And how would I
know? "BadDataError". Sick. Why is it bad?
... You get it.
## What we want to achieve
The ultimate goal is for error messages to serve both humans and
machines. When the user provides bad data, we should tell them what
parts of the data are bad and what they can do to fix it. When they
don't have the right permissions, we should tell them what permissions
they need.
Additionally, it would be nice if we could provide an ID for each error
instance, so that you (or an admin) can look through the logs and locate
he incident.
## What's included in **this** PR?
This PR does not aim to implement everything above. It's not intended to
magically fix everything. Its goal is to implement the necessary
**breaking** changes, so that they can be included in v5. Changing error
messages is a slightly grayer area than changing APIs directly, but
changing the format is definitely something I'd consider breaking.
So this PR:
- defines a minimal version of the error type defined in the [API error
definition linear
task](https://linear.app/unleash/issue/1-629/define-the-error-type).
- aims to catch all errors we return today and wrap them in the error
type
- updates tests to match the new expectations.
An important point: because we are cutting v5 very soon and because work
for this wasn't started until last week, the code here isn't necessarily
very polished. But it doesn't need to be. The internals can be as messy
as we want, as long as the API surface is stable.
That said, I'm very open to feedback about design and code completeness,
etc, but this has intentionally been done quickly.
Please also see my inline comments on the changes for more specific
details.
### Proposed follow-ups
As mentioned, this is the first step to implementing the error type. The
public API error type only exposes `id`, `name`, and `message`. This is
barely any more than most of the previous messages, but they are now all
using the same format. Any additional properties, such as `suggestion`,
`help`, `documentationLink` etc can be added as features without
breaking the current format. This is an intentional limitation of this
PR.
Regarding additional properties: there are some error responses that
must contain extra properties. Some of these are documented in the types
of the new error constructor, but not all. This includes `path` and
`type` properties on 401 errors, `details` on validation errors, and
more.
Also, because it was put together quickly, I don't yet know exactly how
we (as developers) would **prefer** to use these new error messages
within the code, so the internal API (the new type, name, etc), is just
a suggestion. This can evolve naturally over time if (based on feedback
and experience) without changing the public API.
## Returning multiple errors
Most of the time when we return errors today, we only return a single
error (even if many things are wrong). AJV, the OpenAPI integration we
use does have a setting that allows it to return all errors in a request
instead of a single one. I suggest we turn that on, but that we do it in
a separate PR (because it updates a number of other snapshots).
When returning errors that point to `details`, the objects in the
`details` now contain a new `description` property. This "deprecates"
the `message` property. Due to our general deprecation policy, this
should be kept around for another full major and can be removed in v6.
```json
{
"name": "BadDataError",
"message": "Something went wrong. Check the `details` property for more information."
"details": [{
"message": "The .params property must be an object. You provided an array.",
"description": "The .params property must be an object. You provided an array.",
}]
}
```
