Please have a look at #44192 #41243 and #35602 and check questions raised before regarding consul.

python-consul has been updated in #43972 at least
Terraform and Vault should be ok / Prometheus too
Maybe confd is still going to be broken here but the package needs refreshing anyway...

/cc @nh2 for review

The UI actually breaks with this update. we either have to explicitly enable LEGACY_UI or do the same as this PR: #49082

😅 but I do think your README from #41243 should be kept @nh2

Some context: They switched to a yarn based UI instead of the current ruby based build process. And that's enabled by default in 1.3.0

nh2 commented Oct 26, 2018

Hmm, just tried out this PR's consul-1.3.0, but I'm a bit confused: The UI works for me as before, but doesn't look at all like the new UI on https://demo.consul.io/ui/dc1/services (which as per https://www.consul.io/intro/getting-started/ui.html is the default since 1.2.0), but instead looks like the old UI. That desipte I cannot find CONSUL_UI_LEGACY being set anywhere.

Why is that?

arianvp commented Oct 26, 2018

We currently do not at all build the new UI. We need some extra patches for that. So (Guesswork here) maybe it fallbacks to the old UI if the new UI isn't found? In that case, we can just merge this as is, and add another patch later to add the new UI.

@arianvp I don't understand that comment. Consul upstream docs say the new UI is built by default in 1.3.0, and nixpkgs doesn't seem to have anything that disables that. So the new UI should be built.

@nh2 yes this is indeed the case. See https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/blob/25f04fbd21f6a8cc63385cba80092c8c8b1223b2/agent/config/flags.go#L106-L107

We enable -ui-dir in the configuration of consul and thus it uses the legacy UI https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/modules/services/networking/consul.nix#L10

So.. we can merge this as is, without breaking the UI. and we can later create a PR for adding the v2 UI

nh2 commented Oct 26, 2018

Ah, here is more info:

Specifying ui_dir seems to disable the new UI and enable the legacy UI.

We do that here:

(if cfg.webUi then { ui_dir = "${cfg.package.ui}"; } else { }) //

Switching that to ui = true enables the new UI and it seems to work as expected out of the box.

I've asked on the Consul gitter whether this behavoiur is intended, it doesn't seem to be documented.

I think when we switch from ui _dir = ${cfg.package.ui} (which is defined here https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/servers/consul/ui.nix) to ui = true we'll have to adjust the build so that it actually builds the ui-v2 project and includes it in the consul static binary. (which requires yarn, and will require some patching on our side, just like vault).

@arianvp It doens't seem to need anything extra for me (see above): It works out of the box for me if I use

-    (if cfg.webUi then { ui_dir = "${cfg.package.ui}"; } else { }) //
+    (if cfg.webUi then { ui = true; } else { }) //

That's... very surprising. as buildGoPackage only does go specific things, and doesn't call the Makefile of the consul project which actually takes care of building the UI...

@nh2

nh2 commented Oct 26, 2018

We found the solution.

Apparently (and apparently starting with 1.2.0), for the purpose of bundling the UI into the binary, Consul started pre-building all UI stuff and putting it hex-encoded into hashicorp/consul@e875783#diff-a10b38c8ecb31208b7f65fa239f23226. They seem to generate that file with every release commit.

This means we can throw away my README and all Ruby related UI building stuff, and we only keep (if cfg.webUi then { ui = true; } else { })

Ok good! That would make the service module compatible with v1.3.0 with minimal changes.
-> Do we embed that change in this PR? (adding a commit to @vdemeester branch)

Also: the build failure on aarch64 seems to be just a thread number limitation on ofBorg ARM build server but if anyone can double check

No, I made #49165 instead. We should close this.

Closing in favor of #49165 😉

Removes the old UI build tooling; it is no longer necessary
because as of 1.2.0 it's bundled into the server binary.
It doesn't even need to have JS built, because it's bundled into
the release commit's source tree (see NixOS#48714).

The UI is enabled by default, so the NixOS service is
updated to directly use `ui = webUi;` now.

Fixes NixOS#48714.
Fixes NixOS#44192.
Fixes NixOS#41243.
Fixes NixOS#35602.
