When `EMBER_CLI_PLUGIN_ASSETS=1`, plugin application JS will be compiled via Ember CLI. In this mode, the existing `register_asset` API will cause any registered JS files to be made available in `/plugins/{plugin-name}_extra.js`. These 'extra' files will be loaded immediately after the plugin app JS file, so this should not affect functionality.
Plugin compilation in Ember CLI is implemented as an addon, similar to the existing 'admin' addon. We bypass the normal Ember CLI compilation process (which would add the JS to the main app bundle), and reroute the addon Broccoli tree into a separate JS file per-plugin. Previously, Sprockets would add compiled templates directly to `Ember.TEMPLATES`. Under Ember CLI, they are compiled into es6 modules. Some new logic in `discourse-boot.js` takes care of remapping the new module names into the old-style `Ember.TEMPLATES`.
This change has been designed to be a like-for-like replacement of the old plugin compilation system, so we do not expect any breakage. Even so, the environment variable flag will allow us to test this in a range of environments before enabling it by default.
A manual silence implementation is added for the build-time `ember-glimmer.link-to.positional-arguments` deprecation while we work on a better story for plugins.
Each test chunk takes about 10 minutes, so those timeouts can be decreased from 20 to 15.
And there are three of those chunks so total can be a bit over 30 minutes, hence the bump to 35.
Anyone still using `EMBER_CLI_PROD_ASSETS=0` in development or production will be gracefully switched to Ember CLI. In development, a repeated message will be logged to STDERR.
Similarly, passing `QUNIT_EMBER_CLI=0` to the qunit rake task will now do nothing. A warning will be printed, and ember-cli mode will be used. Note that we've chosen not to fail the task, so that existing plugin/theme CI jobs don't immediately start failing. We may switch to a hard fail in the coming days/weeks.
`run-qunit.js` does not expect QUnit tests to start automatically but
our wizard QUnit setup did not respect the `qunit_disable_auto_start`
URL param. Hence, tests would start running automatically and when a
subsequent `QUnit.start()` function call is made, we ended up getting a
`QUnit.start cannot be called inside a test context.` error.
This error can be consistently reproduced in the `discourse:discourse_test` container but not in
the local development environment. I do not know why and did not feel
like it is important at this point in time to know why.
Previously, if Core QUnit 1 failed, then QUnit 2/3 wouldn't even be attempted. When dealing with multiple failures, this can make the feedback cycle. Setting `if: always()` ensures that the steps run regardless of any earlier failures. This is the same approach we take in the linting workflow.
We have 3 branches which we care about, `main`, `beta` and `stable`.
However, each of this branch has different compatibilties with plugins
and we want to respect that.
This reverts commit f43bba8d59.
Adding randomness has introduced a lot of flakiness in our ember-cli tests. We should fix those issues at the source. However, given the upcoming stable release, this randomness has been reverted so that the stable release includes a stable test suite. Having a stable test suite on stable will make backporting future commits much easier.
- Move ember-cli tests into the main test workflow, so they're listed alongside other tests
- Remove the 'experimental' label
- Add the 'legacy' label to old-style qunit tests
- Add core-plugin EmberCLI tests
- Add scaffolding for all-plugin EmberCLI tests, but disable in matrix for now
The discourse base image already contains a postgres installation, so pulling a separate postgres image is a little wasteful. Using the copy of Postgres in the discourse image saves about 20 seconds on every GitHub actions run.
This commit sets up Postgres with a few performance-improving flags, which we were already using for the `rake docker:test` task (used on our internal CI system).
A cached database (and its uploads) will only be used if the current run has exactly the same set of migration files. Otherwise, the database will be migrated from scratch
This saves approximately 75s on the core backend specs and 45s on other runs.
