* Feat: return reasons why a feature evaluated to true or false
Note: this is very rough and just straight ripped from the nodejs
client. It will need a lot of work, but is a good place to start
* Feat: add suggested shape for new payload
* Chore: minor cleanup
* Wip: make server compile again
* Remove unused schema ref
* Export new schemas
* Chore: fix some tests to use sub property
* Fix: fix some tests
* Refactor: rename some variables, uncomment some stuff
* Add segments type to bootstrap options
* Add segments capability to offline feature evaluator
* Fix function calls after turning params into an option abject
* Feat: test strategy order, etc
* Feat: add test to check that all strats are returned correctly
* Feat: allow you to include strategy ids in clients
* Wip: hook up segments in the offline client.
Note: compared to regular clients, they still fail
* Feat: add segments validation
* Fix: fix test case invariant.
* Chore: revert to returning only `boolean` from strategies.
This _should_ make it work with custom strategies too 🤞
* Feat: make more properties of the returned feature required
* Wip: add some comments and unfinished tests for edge cases
* Feat: add `isEnabledInCurrentEnvironment` prop

* Wip: fix sdk tests
* Remove comments, improve test logging
* Feat: add descriptions and examples to playground feature schema
* Switch `examples` for `example`
* Update schemas with descriptions and examples
* Fix: update snapshot
* Fix: openapi example
* Fix: merge issues
* Fix: fix issue where feature evaluation state was wrong
* Chore: update openapi spec
* Fix: fix broken offline client tests
* Refactor: move schemas into separate files
* Refactor: remove "reason" for incomplete evaluation.
The only instances where evaluation is incomplete is when we don't
know what the strategy is.
* Refactor: move unleash node client into test and dev dependencies
* Wip: further removal of stuff
* Chore: remove a bunch of code that we don't use
* Chore: remove comment
* Chore: remove unused code
* Fix: fix some prettier errors

* Chore: remove redundant type
* Fix: remove redundant if and fix fallback evaluation
* Refactor: reduce nesting and remove duplication
* Fix: remove unused helper function
* Refactor: type `parameters` as `unknown`
* Chore: remove redundant comment
* Refactor: move constraint code into a separate file
* Refactor: rename `unleash` -> `feature-evaluator`
* Rename class `Unleash` -> `FeatureEvaluator`
* Refactor: remove this.ready and sync logic from feature evaluator
* Refactor: remove unused code, rename config type
* Refactor: remove event emission from the Unleash client
* Remove unlistened-for events in feature evaluator
* Refactor: make offline client synchronous; remove code
* Fix: update openapi snapshot after adding required strategy ids
* Feat: change `strategies` format.
This commit changes the format of a playground feature's `strategies`
properties from a list of strategies to an object with properties
`result` and `data`. It looks a bit like this:
```ts
type Strategies = {
result: boolean | "unknown",
data: Strategy[]
}
```
The reason is that this allows us to avoid the breaking change that
was previously suggested in the PR:
`feature.isEnabled` used to be a straight boolean. Then, when we found
out we couldn't necessarily evaluate all strategies (custom strats are
hard!) we changed it to `boolean | 'unevaluated'`. However, this is
confusing on a few levels as the playground results are no longer the
same as the SDK would be, nor are they strictly boolean anymore.
This change reverts the `isEnabled` functionality to what it was
before (so it's always a mirror of what the SDK would show).
The equivalent of `feature.isEnabled === 'unevaluated'` now becomes
`feature.isEnabled && strategy.result === 'unknown'`.
* Fix: Fold long string descriptions over multiple lines.
* Fix: update snapshot after adding line breaks to descriptions

About Unleash
Unleash is an open source feature management solution. It improves the workflow of your development team and leads to quicker software delivery. Unleash increases efficiency and gives teams full control of how and when they enable new functionality for end users. Unleash lets teams ship code to production in smaller releases whenever they want.
Feature toggles make it easy to test how your code works with real production data without the fear that you'll accidentally break your users' experience. It also helps your team work on multiple features in parallel without each maintaining an separate feature branch.
Unleash is the largest open source solution for feature flagging on GitHub. There's 12 official client and server SDKs and 10+ community SDKs available; you can even make your own if you want to. You can use Unleash with any language and any framework.
Get started in 2 steps
1. Start Unleash
With git
and docker
installed, it's easy to get started:
Run this script:
git clone git@github.com:Unleash/unleash-docker.git
cd unleash-docker
docker compose up -d
Then point your browser to localhost:4242
and log in using:
- username:
admin
- password:
unleash4all
If you'd rather run the source code in this repo directly via Node.js, see the step-by-step instructions to get up and running in the contributing guide.
2. Connect your SDK
Find your preferred SDK in our list of official SDKs and import it into your project. Follow the setup guides for your specific SDK.
If you use the docker compose file from the previous step, here's the configuration details you'll need to get going:
- For front-end SDKs, use:
- URL:
http://localhost:3000
clientKey
:proxy-client-key
- URL:
- For server-side SDKs, use:
- Unleash API URL:
http://localhost:4242/api/
- API token:
default:development.unleash-insecure-api-token
- Unleash API URL:
If you use a different setup, your configuration details will most likely also be different.
Check a feature toggle
Checking the state of a feature toggle in your code is easy! The syntax will vary depending on your language, but all you need is a simple function call to check whether a toggle is available. Here's how it might look in Java:
if (unleash.isEnabled("AwesomeFeature")) {
// do new, flashy thing
} else {
// do old, boring stuff
}
Run Unleash on a service?
If you don't want to run Unleash locally, we also provide easy deployment setups for Heroku and Digital Ocean:
Configure and run Unleash anywhere
The above sections show you how to get up and running quickly and easily. When you're ready to start configuring and customizing Unleash for your own environment, check out the documentation for getting started with self-managed deployments, Unleash configuration options, or running Unleash locally via docker.
