      [skip-changleog] Better gRPC error handling (#1251) · 75b9760c
      Cristian Maglie authored
      * Proper gRPC error handling
      
      * Update gRPC API of board command to return status.Status instead of error
      
      * Update gRPC API of remaining commands to return status.Status instead of error
      
      * Replace custom error with protobuf message
      
      Previously, a custom error was returned when attempting to upgrade a platform that was already at the latest available
      version. There is dedicated code for handling this specific error.
      
      Now that the function has been changed to return a status.Status instead of error, the previous check for the return
      being this error is no longer possible. The capability is restored by replacing the error with a protocol buffer message.
      
      * Handle details of any type in `core.PlatformUpgrade()` status
      
      The status details of the function are used to identify the specific cause of a non-nil status. This is done via a type
      assertion. Previously, this type assertion was configured such that a details of any type other than the expected would
      result in a panic. At the moment, that will not occur because we only add details of one type. However, the whole point
      of the type assertion is to support details of multiple types, and if other types are added a panic will not be the
      appropriate behavior.
      
      A better approach is to check the result of the type assertion, handling the non-nil status as a generic error if its
      details are of a different type.
      
      * Return nil on program action if an error occurred
      
      * Refactoring 'upload' commands
      
      * Refactoring 'board' commands
      
      * Refactoring 'compile' commands
      
      * Refactoring 'core' commands
      
      * Refactoring 'debug' commands
      
      * Refactoring 'lib' commands
      
      * Refactoring 'sketch' commands
      
      * Refactoring 'commands' commands
      
      * updated tests and fixed some error wording
      
      * fixed go lint warnings

      [skip changelog] Use major version ref for `actions/github-script` action (#1404) · 3aceff5f
      per1234 authored
      Use of the major version ref will cause the workflow to benefit from ongoing development to its `actions/github-script`
      GitHub Actions action dependency at each patch or minor release up until such time as a new major release is made.
      Dependabot will submit a PR at that time, which will serve as the notification that a newer version is available. At that
      time, the maintainer should evaluate whether any changes to the workflow are required by the breaking change that
      triggered the major release before manually updating the major ref (i.e., `uses: actions/github-script@v5`).

      [skip changelog] Run relevant workflows on release branch creation (#1400) · 1985936d
      per1234 authored
      * [skip changelog] Run relevant workflows on release branch creation
      
      The trunk-based development strategy is employed by this repository. This means that the release branch may contain a
      subset of the history of the default branch.
      
      The status of the GitHub Actions workflows should be evaluated before making a release. However, this is not so simple as
      checking the status of the commit at the tip of the release branch. The reason is that, for the sake of efficiency, the
      workflows are configured to run only when the processes are relevant to the trigger event (e.g., no need to run the Go
      unit tests for a change to the readme).
      
      In the case of the default branch, you can simply set the workflow runs filter to that branch and then check the result
      of the latest run of each workflow of interest. However, that was not possible to do with the release branch since it
      might be that the workflow was never run in that branch. The status of the latest run of the workflow in the default
      branch might not match the status for the release branch if the release branch does not contain the full history.
      
      For this reason, it will be helpful to trigger all relevant workflows on the creation of a release branch. This will
      ensure that each of those workflows will always have at least one run in the release branch. Subsequent commits pushed to
      the branch can run based on their usual trigger filters and the status of the latest run of each workflow in the branch
      will provide an accurate indication of the state of that branch.
      
      Branches are created for purposes other than releases, most notably feature branches to stage work for a pull request.
      Because the workflows are very comprehensive, it would not be convenient or efficient to run them on the creation of
      every feature branch.
      
      Unfortunately, GitHub Actions does not support filters on the `create` event of branch creation like it does for the
      `push` and `pull_request` events. There is support for a `branches` filter of the `push` event, but that filter is an AND
      to the `paths` filter and this application requires an OR. For this reason, the workflows must be triggered by the
      creation of any branch. The unwanted job runs are prevented by adding a `run-determination` job with the branch filter
      handled by Bash commands. The other jobs of the workflow use this `run-determination` job as a dependency, only running
      when it indicates they should via a job output. Because this minimal `run-determination` job runs very quickly, it is
      roughly equivalent to the workflow having been skipped entirely for non-release branch creations. This approach has been
      in use for some time already in the website deployment workflow.

      [skip changelog] Don't require Codecov upload success for test run in fork (#1397) · 408cee85
      per1234 authored
      * [skip changelog] Use major version refs of action in "Test Go" workflow
      
      Use of the major version ref will cause the workflow to benefit from ongoing development to the actions up until such
      time as a new major release of an action is made, at which time we would need to evaluate whether any changes to the
      workflow are required by the breaking change that triggered the major release before updating the major ref
      (e.g., `uses: codecov/codecov-action@v3`).
      
      The previous pin to the patch version required an update to the workflow on every action release in order to keep it
      updated.
      
      * [skip changelog] Don't require Codecov upload success for test run in fork
      
      The "Test Go" workflow uploads code coverage data to Codecov. There will occasionally be spurious upload failures caused
      by transient network outages. These will typically succeed after the workflow is re-run, but the option to re-run is not
      offered when the workflow run passes.
      
      Because it's important that the data be complete, the `codecov/codecov-action` action is configured to fail the workflow
      run if the upload does not succeed. However, the upload will never be able to succeed for workflow runs in a fork where
      the owner has not set up Codecov. For this reason, the `fail_ci_if_error` input setting is made conditional upon the
      repository name.
      
      The result is:
      
      - Coverage data upload success is required for all workflow runs in the `arduino/arduino-cli` repository.
      - Uploads are attempted for workflow runs in forks (because the fork owner might have Codecov set up and want the data),
        but they are not required to succeed and will fail silently.

      [skip changelog] Sync install script with template (#1396) · bec94dba
      per1234 authored
      * [skip changelog] Bring shell scripts into compliance with standard formatting
      
      A standardized style for all Arduino Tooling shell scripts has been established. The `.editorconfig` file is updated
      accordingly and all the repository's scripts made compliant with it.
      
      * [skip changelog] Sync install script with template
      
      We have assembled a collection of reusable project assets:
      https://github.com/arduino/tooling-project-assets
      These assets will be used in the repositories of all Arduino tooling projects.
      
      Some minor improvements and standardizations have been made in the upstream "template" installation script, and those are
      introduced to this repository via this pull request.
      
      Notable:
      
      - ShellCheck compliance
      - Support for specifying nightly build versions (e.g., "nightly-latest") via the script argument
      - Remove cryptic output not of interest to the user (likely forgotten debug artifacts from script development)

      [skip changelog] Run formatting and linting CI checks on all Go modules (#1390) · 3f2e910c
      per1234 authored
      The repository contains multiple Go modules. Previously, the CI workflow that lints and checks the formatting of the
      repository's Go code was only checking the primary module in the root of the repo.
      
      This workflow is now expanded to cover all Go code through the use of a dedicated matrix job for each of the modules.
      
      Arbitrary Go module paths can be specified to the tasks by defining the `GO_MODULE_PATH` environment variable. If this
      variable is not defined, the default root module path is used as default, preserving the previous task behavior.

      [skip changelog] Revert "Add skip changelog prefix to Dependabot workflow update commits (#1381)" (#1389)
      
      This reverts commit 4fbf7b7b.
      
      It turns out there is an undocumented maximum length of 15 characters for this prefix:
      
      https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/network/updates
      
      ```
      Dependabot encountered the following error when parsing your .github/dependabot.yml:
      
      The property '#/updates/0/commit-message/prefix' was not of a maximum string length of 15
      Please update the config file to conform with Dependabot's specification.
      ```
      Unfortunately, even though it is possible to reduce the prefix length by 1 with the removal of the trailing space, we
      still end up with 16 characters.

      Fix error printing when core uninstall fails during upgrade (#1371) · f632a9d2
      Matthijs Kooijman authored
      The code tried to log the wrong error, which was nil, hiding the real
      error.
      
      This originally occurred for example when a version of the core was already
      installed manually in the sketchbook, and you would try to install
      another version using arduino-cli, though that has since been fixed
      (arduino-cli no longer tries to uninstall cores from the sketchbook).
      
      To still reproduce this problem, you can e.g. break the permissions of
      an installed core:
      
          $ arduino-cli core install arduino:avr@1.8.1
          (...)
          $ chmod a-w ~/.arduino15/packages/arduino/hardware/avr/1.8.1
          $ arduino-cli core install arduino:avr@1.8.2
          Tool arduino:avr-gcc@7.3.0-atmel3.6.1-arduino5 already installed
          Tool arduino:avrdude@6.3.0-arduino17 already installed
          Tool arduino:arduinoOTA@1.3.0 already installed

      With this fix applied, this produces a proper error message:
      
          $ arduino-cli core install arduino:avr@1.8.2
          Tool arduino:avr-gcc@7.3.0-atmel3.6.1-arduino5 already installed

      Remove duplicate task for protobuf docs generation (#1387) · e4c54ec3
      per1234 authored
      The "gRPC reference" section of the documentation website is automatically generated from the repository's protocol
      buffer files. In order to make this generation process easy for developers to run, the necessary commands are defined in
      a task.
      
      For some reason, there were two tasks for this purpose, with different names and descriptions, but identical commands.
      This makes the taskfile more difficult to understand and more difficult to maintain.
      
      One of the tasks, `protoc:docs` is called by the `docs:generate` task. The other, `docs:gen:protobuf`, is not used or
      referenced anywhere in the repository. So I have removed `docs:gen:protobuf` from the taskfile.

      Sync testing infrastructure with "template" assets (#1388) · 3e414555
      per1234 authored
      * [skip changelog] Sync testing infrastructure with "template" assets
      
      We have assembled a collection of reusable project assets:
      https://github.com/arduino/tooling-project-assets
      These will be used in the repositories of all Arduino tooling projects.
      
      Some minor improvements and standardizations have been made in the upstream "template" assets, and those are hereby
      introduced to this repository.
      
      Notable:
      
      - Configure paths filters to avoid unnecessary workflow runs
      - Increased parallelism
      - Improved maintainability
      
      * Remove obsolete testing tasks
      
      The sync with the template testing assets has resulted in new standardized names for some of the test runner tasks:
      
      - `test-unit` -> `go:test`
      - `test-integration` -> `go:test-integration`
      
      * [skip changelog] Update package names in imports
      
      As of Go 1.7 the `golang.org/x/net/context` package is available in the standard library under the name `context`.
      
      * [skip changelog] Tidy root module dependencies
      
      Result of running `go mod tidy` with Go 1.16.6.
      
      * [skip changelog] Tidy `github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/arduino/discovery/discovery_client` module's dependencies
      
      Result of running `go mod tidy` with Go 1.16.6.
      
      * [skip changelog] Tidy `github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/term_example` module's dependencies
      
      Result of running `go mod tidy` with Go 1.16.6.
      
      * [skip changelog] Tidy `github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/docsgen` module's dependencies
      
      Result of running `go mod tidy` with Go 1.16.6.

      [skip changelog] Move website versioning information out of CONTRIBUTING.md (#1386) · 5bce623f
      per1234 authored
      * [skip changelog] Fix broken workflow link
      
      The GitHub Actions workflow used to deploy the documentation website was renamed to a filename more suitable for
      existence in a collection of reusable workflows that have multiple variations according to project requirements.
      
      The link to the file was not updated accordingly, which resulted it breaking.
      
      * [skip changelog] Move website versioning information out of CONTRIBUTING.md
      
      This content is for maintainers, and is not of interest to the average contributor. It makes an already overly long
      contributor guide even more overwhelming, and thus likely to be skipped.
      
      The documentation versioning and publishing system is now maintained in a centralized repository hosting a collection of
      reusable project assets. The documentation content previously located in CONTRIBUTING.md has all been migrated there and
      expanded.
      
      Since this is not high level contributor guidelines, it will be better to maintain it in a single place, linking to that
      documentation as needed.

      [skip changelog] Sync documentation assets with templates (#1383) · f04d18ff

      * [skip changelog] Sync documentation assets with templates
      
      We have assembled a collection of reusable project assets:
      https://github.com/arduino/tooling-project-assets
      These assets will be used in the repositories of all Arduino tooling projects.
      
      Some significant improvements and standardizations have been made in the upstream "template" assets, and those are
      introduced to this repository here.
      
      Notable:
      
      - Use markdownlint to check for common problems and formatting.
      - Make link check task Windows compatible
      - Streamline website versioning system
      - Use modern MkDocs versioning features
      - Make command reference generation task Windows compatible
      - Consolidate all Python dependency management to Poetry
      - Standardize documentation-related task names and deprecate old task names
      
      * Remove obsolete documentation tasks
      
      The sync with the template documentation assets has resulted in new standardized names for some of the documentation
      management tasks:
      
      - `docs:gen:commands` -> `go:cli-docs`
      - `docs:gen` -> `docs:generate`
      - `docs:build` -> `docs:check`
      - `docs:serve` -> `website:serve`
      - `docs:check-links` -> `markdown:check-links`
      
      * [skip changelog] Use standard list prefix in Markdown
      
      This is the standardized ordered list prefix for use in all Arduino Tooling Markdown files.
      
      The Markdown renderer will automatically handle numbering. Manual numbering means that either all following list items
      need to be renumbered every time a list item is added or removed, resulting in more work for contributors and reviewers.
      
      * [skip changelog] Use standardized Markdown code block style
      
      "Code fencing" is superior to the indentation code block syntax of Markdown because it permits syntax highlighting. Even
      in cases where syntax highlighting is not applicable, a consistent style should be used throughout all the Markdown files
      of Arduino Tooling projects.

      [skip changelog] Sync general formatting check workflow with template (#1380) · 7ef3ebb2
      per1234 authored
      * [skip changelog] Sync general formatting check workflow with template
      
      We have assembled a collection of reusable GitHub Actions workflows:
      https://github.com/arduino/tooling-project-assets
      These workflows will be used in the repositories of all Arduino tooling projects.
      
      The Prettier formatting tool is used in the tasks for formatting and checking the formatting of the repository's
      Markdown and YAML files. Prettier supports a long list of other languages. There is no reason not to take advantage of
      those capabilities as well, so the new workflow applies it to all supported files.
      
      Several of the tasks have been deprecated in favor of the new `general:format-prettier` task:
      
      - `docs:check`
      - `docs:format`
      - `config:check`
      - `config:format`
      
      These still work as before, but they now display a deprecation warning.
      
      * Remove superfluous formatting tasks
      
      These are replaced by the `general:format-prettier` task. Even though that doesn't provide a formatting compliance check,
      the developer doesn't have any need for such a thing, since they will be better off to simply format, and the CI now
      takes the approach of formatting and then failing if it produced a diff.
      
      * [skip changelog] Bring all files into Prettier formatting style compliance
      
      Previously, Prettier was only run on the Markdown and YAML files. With the new expanded scope of Prettier coverage, the
      JSON files are now required to be compliant.

      [skip changelog] Add skip changelog prefix to Dependabot workflow update commits (#1381) · 4fbf7b7b
      per1234 authored
      Dependabot is configured to submit pull requests for updates to the GitHub Actions actions used in the repository's
      workflows whenever a new version is available. These commits will not result in any user facing changes and so should not
      be mentioned in the release changelog.
      
      The changelog generation system automatically excludes any commit that has the `[skip changelog]` prefix on its message
      title. Adding this changelog to the commits generated by Dependabot will save the release manager time when cleaning up
      the raw changelog.
