This doesn’t include Ember Data, as we are still back on 3.12.
Most changes are deprecation updates, linting fixes, and dependencies. It can
be read commit-by-commit, though many of them are mechanical and skimmable.
For the new linting exclusions, I’ve added them to the Tech Debt list.
The decrease in test count is because linting is no longer included in ember test.
There’s a new deprecation warning in the logs that can be fixed by updating Ember
Power Select but when I tried that it caused it to render incorrectly, so I decided to
ignore it for now and address it separately.
This adds:
* a script for building and deploying the Ember UI and Storybook to
Vercel
* configuration for that deployment
* a header link to the UI to link to Storybook when built with
STORYBOOK_LINK=true
It also removes a file used to configure Netlify redirects.
The Netlify setup had two “sites”: nomad-storybook and nomad-ui. I
attempted to replicate that here but ran into some platform limitations
with Vercel: two “projects” cannot share the same root directory without
also sharing the same vercel.json that lets us specify configuration
such as the rewrite needed to handle deep linking into the Ember UI. I
tried having Storybook use /ui/storybook as the root directory (and
adding a symbolically-linked package.json to bypass Vercel’s refusal
to build without it) but that produced broken Storybook deployments.
This instead combines the two projects into one
(nomad-storybook-and-ui), defaults to forwarding / to /ui/, and
adds the header link to the UI to navigate to Storybook.
Rather than have a complex build script in the Vercel configuration UI,
this delegates to a script in the repository.
This updates the Ember edition setting to Octane, which I removed from #8319
because it required the template-only Glimmer components setting to be turned
on, which this does. These changes to templates accommodate that setting.
This updates to Ember 3.16 but leaves Ember Data at 3.12 so we don’t need
to use the model fragments beta. It can be reviewed on a commit-by-commit
basis: blueprint updates, fixes for test failures, and the removal of
now-deprecated partials.
It’s not a true update to Octane as that would involve turning on template-only
components by default, which breaks various things. We can accomplish that
separately and then add the edition setting to package.json.
This is part of #7834’s jQuery removal goal. It addresses a couple of jQuery-related deprecation warnings and also uses “native events mode” for ember-cli-page-object, which is needed so it doesn’t have to use jQuery via the Ember global.
I originally planned to add component documentation, but as this dragged on and I found that JSDoc-to-Markdown sometimes needed hand-tuning, I decided to skip it and focus on replicating what was already present in Freestyle. Adding documentation is a finite task that can be revisited in the future.
My goal was to migrate everything from Freestyle with as few changes as possible. Some adaptations that I found necessary:
• the DelayedArray and DelayedTruth utilities that delay component rendering until slightly after initial render because without them:
◦ charts were rendering with zero width
◦ the JSON viewer was rendering with empty content
• Storybook in Ember renders components in a routerless/controllerless context by default, so some component stories needed changes:
◦ table pagination/sorting stories access to query params, which necessitates some reaching into Ember internals to start routing and dynamically generate a Storybook route/controller to render components into
◦ some stories have a faux controller as part of their Storybook context that hosts setInterval-linked dynamic computed properties
• some jiggery-pokery with anchor tags
◦ inert href='#' had to become href='javascript:;
◦ links that are actually meant to navigate need target='_parent' so they don’t navigate inside the Storybook iframe
Maybe some of these could be addressed by fixes in ember-cli-storybook but I’m wary of digging around in there any more than I already have, as I’ve lost a lot of time to Storybook confusion and frustrations already 😞
The STORYBOOK=true environment variable tweaks some environment settings to get things working as expected in the Storybook context.
I chose to:
• use angle bracket invocation within stories rather than have to migrate them soon after having moved to Storybook
• keep Freestyle around for now for its palette and typeface components
This is mostly deprecation fixes and blueprint changes. There
are some dependency updates too; the changes to Ember
Basic Dropdown necessitated changing it to angle bracket
component invocation. The conversion of the rest of the
templates will happen separately.
