is there a more structured way that we can get this data from the underlying JS library? I don't love the need to use a regex here for this - if we could instead put that info in a JSON object or something instead of parsing out the string I think this will be more robust

I'm not a huge fan either, but I was worried about either making it weird to use, or have backward compatibility problems.
Let me however remark that this method is not about the hint "level". A hint has fundamentally 3 components at the moment:
message
, which describe the particular hint.code
, which categorize hints (same as we have for errors).level
, which isWARN
,INFO
orDEBUG
for now.The
level
, that is introduced by this patch, is shipped as a separate field in the underlying JSON object, and thus deserialized separately, so no worry on this one.But what this method is trying to do is give access to the
message
andcode
separately. Because the issue is that unfortunately, instead of having themessage
andcode
as separate fields in the underlying JSON,do_compose.js
has been using theHint.toString()
method to generate a single pre-formatted string of the form"[<code>] <message>"
and calling this "message".So first, I acknowledge that this isn't strictly hint level related and so one could make the argument this shouldn't be in this patch. But I think the ultimate goal should be that in the rover UX, errors and hints can be displayed in a consistent way, where errors can just be considered as the highest "hint level" (in fact, we do hope to "merge" hints and errors in the code at some point in the future to clean things up). But doing that cleanly implies rover can access the hint
code
andmessage
separately, the same way it does for errors, so it can maybe colorize thecode
and/or format it however it pleases. This could also allow flexibility like grouping messages bycode
for both hints and errors, or filtering certaincode
, etc.Long story short, the current
BuildHint.message
field ofhint.rs
is currently unfortunately not really just the hintmessage
, it is a pre-formatted string with both thecode
and (raw)message
and this method is meant to provide a way out of this.In theory, a better alternative would be to change
BuildHint.message
to only be the actual hintmessage
and to add aBuildHint.code
for the code, and to maybe also ensure those are separate in the underlying JSON object so it's easier to do, but I was kind of worried about breaking things by doing those things. So the idea of this method was to keepBuiltHint.message
unchanged so we don't break existing usages, but to allow future usages to be able to access thecode
andmessage
components individually.Anyway, hope this clarify. If you're not worry about the concerns around breaking existing code, I'm happy to change all this, but I think it would require some care around versioning this properly, because if we change this, currently rover version would need to not use federation-rs versions with such changes (or rather, if they do, the hint will suddenly not be displayed with their code since it wouldn't be part of
BuildHint.message
anymore).There was a problem hiding this comment.

I don't think we have to worry about breaking existing code! We should definitely change the underlying library code away from the
.toString
here - the only thing that matters is that we don't remove fields from the JSON that's actually emitted by thesupergraph
binary. Everything else is an internal contract - we only need to hold up the end to end guarantee.There was a problem hiding this comment.

But currently, the JSON of the
supergraph
binary has themessage
field for hints that is the pre-formatted string containing both the "raw" message and the code. And existing rover versions kind of assume this is what this field contains, but we ultimately want rover to be able to access separately and not as a pre-formatted string. So if we do the "cleanest" change here without backward compatibility concerns, we would be changing thatmessage
field to now be only the "raw" message, without code, and the code would be a new field. Technically this is not a field removal, but it's changing what the field holds, and I assume that would be an issue too?The alternative could be keep the
message
field containing the pre-formatted string (we can still stop having the pre-formatted string in the JSON from javascript, but thesupergraph
binary itself would be the one formatting the string for its own JSON output), but also add 2 new fields,code
andraw_message
, with themessage
field essentially becoming deprecated but kept for backward compatibility.Does that make sense, or am I overcomplicating this?

Yeah - I think you're right here, we want older versions to still be able to work.
Old versions of Rover will discard any new unused JSON fields (we should test this to verify of course), but this approach sounds perfectly reasonable to me!

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to update the patch accordingly ... when I find a bit of time for it.
