The default namespace, and the tokens default namespace (or its origin namespace) is slightly more complicated than other things we deal with in the UI, there's plenty of info/docs on this that I've added in this PR.
Previously:
When a namespace was not specified in the URL, we used to default to the default namespace. When you logged in using a token we automatically forward you the namespace URL that your token originates from, so you are then using the namespace for your token by default. You can of course then edit the URL to remove the namespace portion, or perhaps revisit the UI at the root path with you token already set. In these latter cases we would show you information from the default namespace. So if you had no namespace segment/portion in the URL, we would assume default, perform actions against the default namespace and highlight the default namespace in the namespace selector menu. If you wanted to perform actions in your tokens origin namespace you would have to manually select it from the namespace selector menu.
This PR:
Now, when you have no namespace segment/portion in the URL, we use the token's origin namespace instead (and if you don't have a token, we then use the default namespace like it was previously)
Notes/thoughts:
I originally thought we were showing an incorrectly selected namespace in the namespace selector, but it also matched up with what we were doing with the API, so it was in fact correct. The issue was more that we weren't selecting the origin namespace of the token for the user when a namespace segment was omitted from the URL. Seeing as we automatically forward you to the tokens origin namespace when you log in, and we were correctly showing the namespace we were acting on when you had no namespace segment in the URL (in the previous case default), I'm not entirely sure how much of an issue this actually was.
This characteristic of namespace+token+namespace is a little weird and its easy to miss a subtlety or two so I tried to add some documentation in here for future me/someone else (including some in depth code comment around one of the API endpoints where this is very subtle and very hard to miss). I'm not the greatest at words, so would be great to get some edits there if it doesn't seem clear to folks.
The fact that we used to save your previous datacenter and namespace into local storage for reasons also meant the interaction here was slightly more complicated than it needed to be, so whilst we were here we rejigged things slightly to satisfy said reasons still but not use local storage (we try and grab the info from higher up). A lot of the related code here is from before we had our Routlets which I think could probably make all of this a lot less complicated, but I didn't want to do a wholesale replacement in this PR, we can save that for a separate PR on its own at some point.
* Model layer changes to turn Node:ServiceInstances into hasMany
We tried to make something that feels a little like ember-data yet
not leave our approach of re-shaping the JSON directly from the
response.
1. We added transformHasManyResponse for re-shaping JSON for hasMany
relationships. we avoided the normalize word as ember-data serialize
methods usually return something JSON:API shaped and we distinctly don't
want to do that. Transform was the best word we could think of.
2. The integration tests across all of our models here feel very much
like those types of tests that aren't really testing much, or assert
too much to an extent that they get in the way rather than be of any
use. I'd very much like to move a lot of this to unit tests. Currently
most of the fingerprinting functionality is unit tested and these
integration tests were originally to give confidence that IDs and
related properties were being added correctly.
3. We've added a hasMany relationship, but not the corresponding
belongsTo - yet at least. We don't require the belongsTo right now, and
if we do we can add it later.
* Integrate ServiceInstance search bar for Node:ServiceInstances
* Hide Node.Meta when on the Node:ServiceINstance page
We use a little string replace hack here for a human-like label, this is
soon to be replaced with proper i10n replacement
* Always ensure that a Namespace is set, and add comment explaining
* ui: Add the most basic workspace root in /ui
* We already have a LICENSE file in the repository root
* Change directory path in build scripts ui-v2 -> ui
* Make yarn install flags configurable from elsewhere
* Minimal workspace root makefile
* Call the new docker specific target
* Update yarn in the docker build image
* Reconfigure the netlify target and move to the higher makefile
* Move ui-v2 -> ui/packages/consul-ui
* Change repo root to refleect new folder structure
* Temporarily don't hoist consul-api-double
* Fixup CI configuration
* Fixup lint errors
