EJSTemplates: make typealiases accessible from templates

[djbe]

Currently marked with skipJSExport, so not visible from those templates. Not sure why 🤷

Same as with the recent protocols PR, added some tests for it as well.

👋🏻 Thank you for your PR! It is very much appreciated 🤝

I am checking what is up with the CI. ⏲️

👋🏻 Hey @djbe ,

I have tested your commit on Linux (same as on CI) and it worked for tests. Here on CI it traps with Signal 11.

So, I have updated Swift version to 5.9 in master branch (wonder when should we rename it to main 🤔 ).

Could you please rebase with the top of the branch and let's see how CI would react this time. Thank you 🤝

[djbe]

Sure thing 🤞

About master -> main, I think there are some guides about that transition. I know Github has some general info about it, but I'd check other resources. Especially impact on CI, maybe other integrations, …

[art-divin]

@djbe congratulations, you've uncovered yet another bug in Swift runtime on Linux 👍🏻

Jokes aside, I'll tinker with it. Wonder why locally cannot reproduce from your fork 🕵🏻

Edit: now I was able to reproduce, was testing a wrong branch 🙈
Edit2: crash is the same, swiftlang/swift#68296 (comment), coming from SwiftTemplateSpec. Checking 👀

Edit3: crash happens also on master. This is really weird because CI was green for another PR I just merged. I'll take a look a bit later.

👋🏻 Hey @djbe ,

I am finally back from a short break, and I have investigated what happens and found the solution.

Here's what fails:

1. Foo.swift file now contains typealias [:], which cannot be "parsed" by Linux version of Foundation's NSCoder (same bug as I have referenced before)
2. The class name, "Bar", conflicts with a class name in file FileParserMethodsSpec used for tests

In order to overcome these two problems, the following actions need to be made:

1. A separate Stub/Source folder needs to be created specifically for Linux, that would be a copy of the existing Stub/Source but with removed typealias in Foo.swift
2. In Package.swift testTarget named SourceryLibTests needs to have resources conditionally compiled, with Stub/Source for canImport(ObjectiveC) case, and Stub/Source_Linux otherwise
3. Class Bar needs to be renamed, say, to BarBaz
4. Typealias.swift should also have the update related to the renamed FooBarBaz

Another solution is to have type instead of [String: String] set to [String] or some other than a dictionary type.

What do you think? I have pushed my fix, which is not 100% complete, here.

I hope this helps! Thank you 🤝

[art-divin]

Would be nice to address the Linux build, and I'd merge this PR immediately, thank you 👍🏻

[art-divin]

👋🏻 hey @djbe ,

would you have capacity to do the change, or I can take over? I'll need write access in your fork, or I'll copy your changes into a new PR.
What would you suggest?

Thank you 🙏🏻

[djbe]

Maybe some of the requested changes, but not all 😅

• Completely restructuring the tests, just for that one line (typealias) because Swift itself is buggy, seems a bit overkill.
• So I went with the simple solution of using a typealias to String.
• I did apply the requested changes about renaming Foo & Bar (did both just in case, particularly because your commit renamed Foo).

Note: if you want feel free to push your own changes.

[art-divin]

Thank you @djbe ,

Linux tests still fail. What I think is the most reasonable to do is:

1. Merge to enable the main branch to work with macOS
2. Address Linux tests in a separate MR

This way we can unblock you and also can delegate the fix.

Thank you a lot 👍🏻

[djbe]

Hmmm that is unfortunate, the circle CI build was successful last night, but that probably didn't build on linux. Weird that it's still broken, because I got rid of the typealias with [String: String] (replaced it with a simpler one.

[art-divin]

No issue, I'll handle it since I have everything prepared. Thanks!
