This PR lays most of the groundwork required for emitting events when
features are marked as potentially stale by Unleash. It does **not**
emit any events just yet. The summary is:
- periodically look for features that are potentially stale and mark
them (set to run every 10 seconds for now; can be changed)
- when features are updated, if the update data contains changes to the
feature's type or createdAt date, also update the potentially stale
status.
It is currently about 220 lines of tests and about 100 lines of
application code (primarily db migration and two new methods on the
IFeatureToggleStore interface).
The reason I wanted to put this into a single PR (instead of just the db
migration, then just the potentially stale marking, then the update
logic) is:
If users get the db migration first, but not the rest of the update
logic until the events are fired, then they could get a bunch of new
events for features that should have been marked as potentially stale
several days/weeks/months ago. That seemed undesirable to me, so I
decided to bunch those changes together. Of course, I'd be happy to
break it into smaller parts.
## Rules
A toggle will be marked as potentially stale iff:
- it is not already stale
- its createdAt date is older than its feature type's expected lifetime
would dictate
## Migration
The migration adds a new `potentially_stale` column to the features
table and sets this to true for any toggles that have exceeded their
expected lifetime and that have not already been marked as `stale`.
## Discussion
### The `currentTime` parameter of `markPotentiallyStaleFeatures`
The `markPotentiallyStaleFetaures` method takes an optional
`currentTime` parameter. This was added to make it easier to test (so
you can test "into the future"), but it's not used in the application.
We can rewrite the tests to instead update feature toggles manually, but
that wouldn't test the actual marking method. Happy to discuss.

Make each error class have to define its own status code. This makes
it easier for developers to see which code an error corresponds to and
means less jumping back and forth between files. In other words:
improved locality.
Unfortunately, the long switch needs to stay in case we get errors
thrown that aren't of the Unleash Error type, but we can move it to
the `fromLegacyError` file instead.
Tradeoff analysis by @kwasniew:
+ I like the locality of error to code reasoning
- now HTTP leaks to the non-HTTP code that throws those errors e.g. application services
If we had other delivery mechanisms other than HTTP then it wouldn't make sense to couple error codes to one protocol (HTTP). But since we're mostly doing web it may not be a problem.
@thomasheartman's response:
This is a good point and something I hadn't considered. The same data was always available on those errors (by using the same property), I've just made the declaration local to each error instead of something that the parent class handles. The idea was to make it easier to create new error classes with their corresponding error codes. Because the errors are intended to be API errors (or at least, I've always considered them to be that), I think that makes sense.
Taking your comment into consideration, I still think it's the right thing to do, but I'm not bullish about it. We could always walk it back later if we find that it's not appropriate. The old code is still available and we could easily enough roll back this change if we find that we want to decouple it later.

flexibility

In some of the places we used `NoAccessError` for permissions, other
places we used it for a more generic 403 error with a different
message. This refactoring splits the error type into two distinct
types instead to make the error messages more consistent.
### What
Adds a quick and dirty description to requestPerSeconds and
segmentedRequestPerSecondsSchema so the enterprise /rps endpoint has
better API docs.

This PR fixes an issue where events generated during a db transaction
would get published before the transaction was complete. This caused
errors in some of our services that expected the data to be stored
before the transaction had been commited. Refer to [linear issue
1-1049](https://linear.app/unleash/issue/1-1049/event-emitter-should-emit-events-after-db-transaction-is-commited-not)
for more info.
Fixes 1-1049.
## Changes
The most important change here is that the `eventStore` no longer emits
events when they happen (because that can be in the middle of a
transaction). Instead, events are stored with a new `announced` column.
The new event announcer service runs on a schedule (every second) and
publishes any new events that have not been published.
Parts of the code have largely been lifted from the
`client-application-store`, which uses a similar logic.
I have kept the emitting of the event within the event store because a
lot of other services listen to events from this store, so removing that
would require a large rewrite. It's something we could look into down
the line, but it seems like too much of a change to do right now.
## Discussion
### Terminology:
Published vs announced? We should settle on one or the other. Announced
is consistent with the client-application store, but published sounds
more fitting for events.
### Publishing and marking events as published
The current implementation fetches all events that haven't been marked
as announced, sets them as announced, and then emits them. It's possible
that Unleash would crash in the interim or something else might happen,
causing the events not to get published. Maybe it would make sense to
just fetch the events and only mark them as published after the
announcement? On the other hand, that might get us into other problems.
Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.
## About the changes
Fix OpenAPI definitions for endpoint
`/api/admin/projects/{projectId}/features/{featureName}/environments/{environment}`
and similar.
Apparently Jest doesn't like it when you use multiple stringContaining
statements for one property. Only the last `stringContaining`
statement is evaluated while the others are ignored.
This means that a lot of these assertions were never checked. To fix
that, I've extracted them into separate assertions.
### What
This PR adds documentation for our endpoints that are covered by our
"Events" tag. It also adds a type for all valid events, and then uses
this as valid values for type argument.
This PR updates endpoints and schemas for the API tokens tag.
As part of that, they also handle oneOf openapi validation errors and improve the console output for the enforcer tests.
###What
Adds an optional sensitive parameter for customHeaders to all current
addons. It is sensitive because the user might be including api key headers.
## What
This adds openapi documentation for the Auth tagged operations and
connected schemas.
## Discussion points
Our user schema seems to be exposing quite a bit of internal fields, I
flagged the isApi field as deprecated, I can imagine quite a few of
these fields also being deprecated to prepare for removal in next major
version, but I was unsure which ones were safe to do so with.
## Observation
We have some technical debt around the shape of the schema we're
claiming we're returning and what we actually are returning. I believe
@gastonfournier also observed this when we turned on validation for our
endpoints.

Adds a UI that shows current status of version and feature usage
collection configuration, and a presence in the configuration menu +
menu bar.
Configuring these features is done by setting environment variables. The
version info collection is an existing feature that we're making more
visible, the feature usage collection feature is a new feature that has
it's own environment configuration but also depends on version info
collection being active to work.

This PR adds strategy titles as an optional bit of data added to client
features. It's only added when prompted.
## Discussion points:
### getPlaygroundFeatures
The optional `includeStrategyId` parameter has been replaced by a
`getPlaygroundFeatures` in the service (and in the underlying store).
The playground was the only place that used this specific include, so
instead of adding more and making the interface for that method more
complex, I created a new method that deals specifically with the
playground.
The underlying store still uses an `optionalIncludes` parameter,
however. I have a plan to make that interface more fluid, but I'd like
to propose that in a follow-up PR.
As part of the move to a unified domain this PR updates the default
EMAIL_SENDER to noreply@getunleash.io . Should not be merged/deployed
until we've verified DMARC, DKIM for the new domain.

## About the changes
This makes these permissions not available for selection. In particular
`UPDATE_ROLE`, `CREATE_API_TOKEN`, `UPDATE_API_TOKEN`,
`DELETE_API_TOKEN`, `READ_API_TOKEN` are long-lived and should be taken
out with special care which is why we have
https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1158/add-delete-migration-to-clean-up-no-longer-used-permissions
## Discussion points
If a role has this permission assigned, it will be displayed but will
not be able to remove it. Because the application code does not rely on
these permissions, this shouldn't be a problem. Later when we remove
them from the DB, the permission will be removed as well from the role
by the migration
## About the changes
This PR enables or disables create API token button based on the
permissions.
**Note:** the button is only displayed if you have READ permissions on
some API token. This is a minor limitation as having CREATE permissions
should also grant READ permissions, but right now this is up to the user
to set up the custom role with the correct permissions
**Note 2:** Project-specific API tokens are also ruled by the
project-specific permission to create API tokens in a project (just
having the root permissions to create a client token or frontend token
does not grant access to create a project-specific API token). The
permissions to access the creation of a project-specific API token then
rely on the root permissions to allow the user to create either a client
token or a frontend token.

This PR changes the OpenAPI schema for the advanced playground to not
accept empty lists of environments and to not accept environment names
that don't match the env name pattern we use.
The pattern is the same as the one we use for controlling environment
names on creation.
However, there is a (small) chance that these may get out of sync later,
so we could do something to only define this pattern once (and import it
in the enterprise package), but that may be more work than is necessary,
and I'd suggest we do that later.
I've also added a minLength to the string items although it isn't
strictly necessary. It's primarily to give the users better feedback if
the name is empty.
This change adds an "edit" link to all playground strategies when they
are returned from the API, allowing the user to jump directly to the
evaluated strategy edit screen.
This change applies to both old and new strategies, so it should even
work in the old playground.
This does not use this information in the frontend yet.
## Discussion points:
Should "links" be an object or a singular string? I know the
notifications service uses just "link", but using an object will make
it easier to potentially add more actions in the future (such as
"enable"/"disable", maybe?)
Do we need to supply basePath? I noticed that the notifications links
only ever use an empty string for base path, so it might not be
necessary and can potentially be left out.
## Changes
I've implemented the link building in a new view model file. Inspecting
the output after the result is fully ready requires some gnarly
introspection and mapping, but it's tested.
Further, I've done a little bit of work to stop the playground service
using the schema types directly as the schema types now contain extra
information.
This PR also updates the `urlFriendlyString` arbitrary to not produce
strings that contain only periods. This causes issues when parsing URLs
(and is also something we struggle with in the UI).
https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/4019 introduced a bug where API
token filtering was not taking into account ADMIN permissions, which
means the API tokens were not being displayed on the UI.
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.
## What
As part of the move to enable custom-root-roles, our permissions model
was found to not be granular enough to allow service accounts to only be
allowed to create read-only tokens (client, frontend), but not be
allowed to create admin tokens to avoid opening up a path for privilege
escalation.
## How
This PR adds 12 new roles, a CRUD set for each of the three token types
(admin, client, frontend). To access the `/api/admin/api-tokens`
endpoints you will still need the existing permission (CREATE_API_TOKEN,
DELETE_API_TOKEN, READ_API_TOKEN, UPDATE_API_TOKEN). Once this PR has
been merged the token type you're modifying will also be checked, so if
you're trying to create a CLIENT api-token, you will need
`CREATE_API_TOKEN` and `CREATE_CLIENT_API_TOKEN` permissions. If the
user performing the create call does not have these two permissions or
the `ADMIN` permission, the creation will be rejected with a `403 -
FORBIDDEN` status.
### Discussion points
The test suite tests all operations using a token with
operation_CLIENT_API_TOKEN permission and verifies that it fails trying
to do any of the operations against FRONTEND and ADMIN tokens. During
development the operation_FRONTEND_API_TOKEN and
operation_ADMIN_API_TOKEN permission has also been tested in the same
way. I wonder if it's worth it to re-add these tests in order to verify
that the permission checker works for all operations, or if this is
enough. Since we're running them using e2e tests, I've removed them for
now, to avoid hogging too much processing time.

https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1137/roles-unification-on-the-ui
Root and project roles should be managed in a similar manner, which
means using the same roles route and tab for both.
Additionally, this includes a big revamp to the project roles to align
them more closely with the modern and standardized custom root roles
that were recently developed. They mostly use the same components.
There are still more things we want to improve and unify, but we've left
some of that out of this PR due to PR size concerns.

## About the changes
Implements custom root roles, encompassing a lot of different areas of
the project, and slightly refactoring the current roles logic. It
includes quite a clean up.
This feature itself is behind a flag: `customRootRoles`
This feature covers root roles in:
- Users;
- Service Accounts;
- Groups;
Apologies in advance. I may have gotten a bit carried away 🙈
### Roles
We now have a new admin tab called "Roles" where we can see all root
roles and manage custom ones. We are not allowed to edit or remove
*predefined* roles.
This meant slightly pushing away the existing roles to `project-roles`
instead. One idea we want to explore in the future is to unify both
types of roles in the UI instead of having 2 separate tabs. This
includes modernizing project roles to fit more into our current design
and decisions.
Hovering the permissions cell expands detailed information about the
role:
### Create and edit role
Here's how the role form looks like (create / edit):
Here I categorized permissions so it's easier to visualize and manage
from a UX perspective.
I'm using the same endpoint as before. I tried to unify the logic and
get rid of the `projectRole` specific hooks. What distinguishes custom
root roles from custom project roles is the extra `root-custom` type we
see on the payload. By default we assume `custom` (custom project role)
instead, which should help in terms of backwards compatibility.
### Delete role
When we delete a custom role we try to help the end user make an
informed decision by listing all the entities which currently use this
custom root role:
~~As mentioned in the screenshot, when deleting a custom role, we demote
all entities associated with it to the predefined `Viewer` role.~~
**EDIT**: Apparently we currently block this from the API
(access-service deleteRole) with a message:
What should the correct behavior be?
### Role selector
I added a new easy-to-use role selector component that is present in:
- Users
- Service Accounts
- Groups
### Role description
I also added a new role description component that you can see below the
dropdown in the selector component, but it's also used to better
describe each role in the respective tables:
I'm not listing all the permissions of predefined roles. Those simply
show the description in the tooltip:
### Role badge
Groups is a bit different, since it uses a list of cards, so I added yet
another component - Role badge:
I'm using this same component on the profile tab:
## Discussion points
- Are we being defensive enough with the use of the flag? Should we
cover more?
- Are we breaking backwards compatibility in any way?
- What should we do when removing a role? Block or demote?
- Maybe some existing permission-related issues will surface with this
change: Are we being specific enough with our permissions? A lot of
places are simply checking for `ADMIN`;
- We may want to get rid of the API roles coupling we have with the
users and SAs and instead use the new hooks (e.g. `useRoles`)
explicitly;
- We should update the docs;
- Maybe we could allow the user to add a custom role directly from the
role selector component;

## About the changes
When a feature is not found in a project we should fail with a NotFound
error. If the feature belongs to a different project, it should not be a
permission issue, because the user might not be aware (lack of
permissions/visibility) of that other project, so even in this case the
error should be NotFound (this also works if we ever allow the same
feature name in different projects)

Edit application under

not working as the appName is expected to come in the request body, but
it's actually part of the url. We have two options here:
1. We change the UI to adapt to the expectations of the request by
adding appName to the request body (and eventually removing appName from
the URL, which would be a breaking change)
2. We remove the restriction of only sending the appName in the body and
take the one that comes in the URL. We have a validation that verifies
that at least one of the two sets the appName
([here](e376088668/src/lib/services/client-metrics/instance-service.ts (L208))
we validate using [this
schema](e376088668/src/lib/services/client-metrics/schema.ts (L55-L70)))
In terms of REST API, we can assume that the appName will be present in
the resource `/api/admin/metrics/applications` (an endpoint we don't
have), but when we're updating an application we should refer to that
application by its URL: `/api/admin/metrics/applications/<appName>` and
the presence of an appName in the body might indicate that we're trying
to change the name of the application (something we currently not
support)
Based on the above, I believe going with the second option is best, as
it adheres to REST principles and does not require a breaking change.
Despite that, we only support updating applications as the creation is
done from metrics ingestion
