John Cowen acdd22988a ui: [dev] Adds express middleware, removes need to run api dev server (#6750)
* ui: Adds some express middleware, removes need to run api dev server

@hashicorp/api-double comes with a basic express based server to run the
API double. This uses the express based server that ember-cli includes
and uses to run your app instead.

Eventually this will be moved to the @hashicorp/ember-cli-api-double
addon instead.

* Adds `make start-consul` to ease running a dev UI against Consul itself

# consul-ui
## Prerequisites
You will need the following things properly installed on your computer.
* [Git](https://git-scm.com/)
* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) (with npm)
* [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com)
* [Ember CLI](https://ember-cli.com/)
* [Google Chrome](https://google.com/chrome/)
## Installation
* `git clone https://github.com/hashicorp/consul.git` this repository
* `cd ui-v2`
* `yarn install`
All tooling scripts below primarily use `make` which in turn call node package scripts.
## Running / Development
The source code comes with a small development mode that runs enough of the consul API
as a set of mocks/fixtures to be able to run the UI without having to run
consul.
* `make start` or `yarn start` to start the ember app
* Visit your app at [http://localhost:4200](http://localhost:4200).
To enable ACLs using the mock API, use Web Inspector to set a cookie as follows:
```
CONSUL_ACLS_ENABLE=1
```
This will enable the ACLs login page, to which you can login with any ACL
token/secret.
You can also use a number of other cookie key/values to set various things whilst
developing the UI, such as (but not limited to):
```
CONSUL_SERVICE_COUNT=1000
CONSUL_NODE_CODE=1000
// etc etc
```
See `./node_modules/@hashicorp/consul-api-double` for more details.
If you wish to run the UI code against a running consul instance, uncomment the `proxy`
line in `.ember-cli` to point ember-cli to your consul instance.
You can also run the UI against a normal Consul installation.
`make start-consul` or `yarn run start:consul` will use the `CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR`
environment variable to locate the Consul installation. If that it not set
`start-consul` will use `http://localhost:8500`.
Example usage:
```
CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR=http://10.0.0.1:8500 make start-consul
```
### Code Generators
Make use of the many generators for code, try `ember help generate` for more details
### Running Tests
Please note: You do not need to run `make start-api`/`yarn run start:api` to run the tests, but the same mock consul API is used.
* `make test` or `yarn run test`
* `make test-view` or `yarn run test:view` to view the tests running in Chrome
### Linting
`make lint` currently runs linting on the majority of js files and hbs files (using `ember-template-lint`).
See `.eslintrc.js` and `.eslintignore` for specific configuration.
### Building
* `make build` builds the UI for production usage (env=production)
* `make build-ci` builds the UI for CI/test usage (env=test)
Static files are built into ./dist
#### Running Tests in Parallel
Alternatively, `ember-exam` can be used to split the tests across multiple browser instances for faster results. Most options are the same as `ember test`. To see a full list of options, run `ember exam --help`.
**Note:** The `EMBER_EXAM_PARALLEL` environment variable must be set to override the default `parallel` value of `1` browser instance in [testem.js](./testem.js).
To quickly run the tests across 4 parallel browser instances:
```sh
make test-parallel
```
To run manually:
```sh
$ EMBER_EXAM_PARALLEL=true ./node_modules/.bin/ember exam --split <num> --parallel
```
More ways to split tests can be found in the [ember-exam README.md](https://github.com/trentmwillis/ember-exam/blob/master/README.md).
