[Engine-devel] Using REST API in web UI - review call summary
by Vojtech Szocs
Hi guys,
this is a summary of yesterday's review call, I'll try to highlight important Q/A and things we agreed on. Feel free to add anything in case I've missed something.
--
Q: Why don't we simply try to use existing Java SDK and adapt it for GWT apps? (asked by Michael & Gilad)
A: This might be a viable option to consider if we wanted to skip JavaScript-based SDK altogether and target Java/GWT code directly; we could simply take Java SDK and customize its abstractions where necessary, i.e. using HTTP transport layer implementation that works with GWT. In any case, this would mean coupling ourselves to Java SDK (which has its own release cycle) and I think this would complicate things for us.
As proposed on the meeting, I think it's best to aim for JavaScript SDK as the lowest common denominator for *any* web application that wants to work with REST API. oVirt GWT-based UI can simply bind to JavaScript SDK, i.e. Java/GWT code that just overlays objects and functions provided by JavaScript SDK. Another reason is ease of maintenance - I'd rather see JavaScript SDK's code generation process to be independent of any other SDK (people responsible for maintaining JavaScript SDK should have full control over generated code).
--
Q: What about functionality currently used by oVirt UI but not supported by REST API? (asked by Einav)
[For example, fetching VM entity over GWT RPC also returns related data such as Cluster name.]
A: Based on discussion I've had with other colleagues after yesterday's review call, I don't think that separate support-like backend layer is a good idea. Instead, this is the kind of functionality that could be placed in oVirt.js library. Logical operations like "get VMs and related data" would be exposed through oVirt.js (callback-based) API and ultimately realized as multiple physical requests to REST API via JavaScript Binding.
oVirt.js client would be completely oblivious to the fact that multiple physical requests are dispatched. In fact, since HTTP communication is asynchronous in nature, oVirt.js client wouldn't even notice any difference in terms of API consumption. This assumes JavaScript SDK would use callback-based (non-blocking) API instead of blocking one - after all, blocking API on top of non-blocking implementation sounds pretty much like leaky abstraction [1].
For example:
sdk.getVmsWithExtraData(
callbackToGetExtraDataForGivenVm, // might cause extra physical requests to REST API
callbackFiredWhenAllDataIsReady // update client only when all data is ready
)
[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaky_abstraction
--
Last but not least, where to maintain JavaScript SDK projects: low-level JavaScript Binding + high-level oVirt.js library.
I agree that conceptually both above mentioned projects should go into dedicated "ovirt-engine-sdk-js" git repository and have their own build/release process. However, for now, we're just making baby steps so let's keep things simple and prototype these projects as part of "ovirt-engine" git repository.
... we can complicate things anytime, but we should know that any complex system that works has inevitably evolved from simple system that works ... (quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gall%27s_law)

[Engine-devel] [ovirt-testday] Fake PPC Support - Feedback

Hi,
On the test day I was testing the Fake PPC support. I managed to
register the Fake PPC host into the engine. However when I tried to run
the VM it failed with libvirt responding:
*
libvirtError: internal error: process exited while connecting to
monitor: "kvm" accelerator does not exist.**
**No accelerator found!**
**KVM not supported for this target**
***
Which does not make much sense though. Since it should not try to use
'kvm'. And I am not really sure why it does.
Please let me know if there's anything else I would need to provide you
so you can figure out what is going on. Right now the server is still in
the same state. But I eventually will have to use it for something else.
Here's the part of the log which prints the generated DomainXML:

[Engine-devel] ovirt-engine build segfault on Fedora 20
by Greg Sheremeta
Caution on upgrading your dev machine to Fedora 20. GWT compilation of "safari" (for Chrome) causes a segfault during the build. Strangely, the build appears to work, so I'm not sure what the net effect of the segfault is.
If you only compile for gecko (Firefox) [the default], you won't see the segfault.
In other words,
make clean install-dev PREFIX=$HOME/ovirt-engine DEV_EXTRA_BUILD_FLAGS_GWT_DEFAULTS="-Dgwt.userAgent=gecko1_8,safari"
causes the segfault
But
make install-dev PREFIX="$HOME/ovirt-engine"
works just fine.
I've duplicated this with with both OpenJDK and Oracle JDK.
If you'd like to duplicate, simple install a fresh F20 VM, and then run these commands:
1 sudo yum install nano
2 sudo nano /etc/hostname #set the hostname
3 sudo nano /etc/hosts #set the hostname
5 sudo yum install http://ovirt.org/releases/ovirt-release-fedora.noarch.rpm
6 sudo yum install git java-devel maven openssl postgresql-server m2crypto python-psycopg2 python-cheetah python-daemon libxml2-python jboss-as unzip otopi
7 mkdir projects
8 cd projects/
9 git clone git://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-engine
10 cd ovirt-engine/
11 make install-dev PREFIX="$HOME/ovirt-engine"

Hi everyone!
With the latest gerrit upgrade it has become easier to add the propagatio=

the Code Review and Verified flags when doing a trivial rebase or when no=

The change should become effective right away, so let me know if you have=

Enjoy!

[Engine-devel] AppErrors properties
by Michal Skrivanek
Hi,
while trying to add a new message I couldn't help notice some ugliness in the code regarding our error messages in UI
- why do we have @DefaultStringValue in frontend/webadmin/modules/frontend/src/main/java/org/ovirt/engine/ui/frontend/AppErrors.java ? All strings are defined in individual properties anyway.
- so we have individual properties files….3 of them
REST - backend/manager/modules/dal/src/main/resources/bundles/AppErrors.properties
UP - frontend/webadmin/modules/frontend/src/main/java/org/ovirt/engine/ui/frontend/AppErrors.java
WA - frontend/webadmin/modules/userportal-gwtp/src/main/resources/org/ovirt/engine/ui/frontend/AppErrors.properties
funnily enough it's not that there are more messages in WA than UP, no, it's just full of random omissions, typos and discrepancies which do not make any logical sense
Can't we get rid of the defaults in the interface (useless) and have just one property containing all the messages and use the sam file in all 3 places. And only if there is intentionally a different message in e.g. UP than in WA we can have an override/additional property file there (just by briefly going through most of the differences there's not a single case)
Thanks,
michal

[Engine-devel] proposing Arik Hadas as a maintainer of engine core
by Michal Skrivanek
Dear engine-core maintainers,
I'd like to propose Arik Hadas as a maintainer of oVirt engine backend
Since he started with oVirt project in October 2012 he was working in various areas in engine core, demonstrated his abilities with more than 200 patches merged to engine master alone. Tons of migration related fixes, refactoring of legacy code, but also new complex features including complementary patches in UI, REST and VDSM code (e.g. Live Snapshots with RAM, locking improvements for VM&Template operations)
Thanks in advance for your response.
Thanks,
michal
