This adds a Storybook for the CryptoCertificateKeypair search, including
a mock fetch of the data. In the course of running the tests, we discovered
that including the SearchSelect _class_ won't include the customElement declaration
unless you include the whole file! Other bugs found: including the CSS from
Storybook is different from that of LitElement native, so much so that the
adapter needed to be included. FlowSearch had a similar bug. The problem
only manifests when building via Webpack (which Storybook uses) and not
Rollup, but we should support both in distribution.
This commit replaces various ad-hoc implementations of `search-select` for CryptoCertificateKeyPairs
with a web component that encapsulates all of the needed behavior and exposes a single API.
The results are: Lots of visual clutter is eliminated. A single search of:
```HTML
<ak-search-select
.fetchObjects=${async (query?: string): Promise<CertificateKeyPair[]> => {
const args: CryptoCertificatekeypairsListRequest = {
ordering: "name",
hasKey: true,
includeDetails: false,
};
if (query !== undefined) {
args.search = query;
}
const certificates = await new CryptoApi(
DEFAULT_CONFIG,
).cryptoCertificatekeypairsList(args);
return certificates.results;
}}
.renderElement=${(item: CertificateKeyPair): string => {
return item.name;
}}
.value=${(item: CertificateKeyPair | undefined): string | undefined => {
return item?.pk;
}}
.selected=${(item: CertificateKeyPair): boolean => {
return this.instance?.tlsVerification === item.pk;
}}
?blankable=${true}
>
</ak-search-select>
```
Now looks like:
```HTML
<ak-crypto-certificate-search certificate=${this.instance?.tlsVerification}>
</ak-crypto-certificate-search>
```
There are three searches that do not require there to be a valid key with the certificate; these are
supported with the boolean property `nokey`; likewise, there is one search (in SAMLProviderForm)
that states that if there is no current certificate in the SAMLProvider and only one certificate can
be found in the Authentik database, use that one; this is supported with the boolean property
`singleton`.
These changes replace 382 lines of object-oriented invocations with 36 lines of declarative
configuration, and 98 lines for the class. Overall, the code for "find a crypto certificate" has
been reduced by 46%.
Suggestions for a better word than `singleton` are welcome!
This commit replaces various ad-hoc implementations of the Patternfly Toggle Group HTML with a web
component that encapsulates all of the needed behavior and exposes a single API with a single event
handler, return the value of the option clicked.
The results are: Lots of visual clutter is eliminated. A single link of:
```
<div class="pf-c-toggle-group__item">
<button
class="pf-c-toggle-group__button ${this.mode === ProxyMode.Proxy
? "pf-m-selected"
: ""}"
type="button"
@click=${() => {
this.mode = ProxyMode.Proxy;
}}>
<span class="pf-c-toggle-group__text">${msg("Proxy")}</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="pf-c-divider pf-m-vertical" role="separator"></div>
```
Now looks like:
```
<option value=${ProxyMode.Proxy}>${msg("Proxy")}</option>
```
This also means that the three pages that used the Patternfly Toggle Group could eliminate all of
their Patternfly PFToggleGroup needs, as well as the `justify-content: center` extension, which also
eliminated the `css` import.
The savings aren't as spectacular as I'd hoped: removed 178 lines, but added 123; total savings 55
lines of code. I still count this a win: we need never write another toggle component again, and
any bugs, extensions or features we may want to add can be centralized or forked without risking the
whole edifice.

remove default example stories that were broken
currently only the dark theme works due to the way storybook includes CSS files in the iframe
Signed-off-by: Jens Langhammer <jens@goauthentik.io>
1. Fixed `eventEmitter` so that if the detail object is a scalar, it will not attempt to "objectify"
it. This was causing a bug where retrofitting the eventEmitter to some older components resulted
in a detail of "some" being translated into ['s', 'o', 'm', 'e']. Not what is wanted.
2. Removed the "transitional form" from the existing components; they had a two-step where the web
component class was just a wrapper around an independent rendering function. While this worked,
it was only to make the case that they *were* independent rendering objects and could be
supported with the right web component framework. We're halfway there now; the last step will be
to transform the horizontal-element and various input CSS into componentized CSS, the way
Patternfly-Elements is currently doing.
3. Fixed the `help` field so that it could take a string or a TemplateResult, and if the latter,
don't bother wrapping it in the helper text functionality; just let it be its own thing. This
supports the multi-line help of redirectURI as well as the `ak-utils-time-delta` capability.
4. Transform Oauth2ProviderForm to use the new components, to the best of our ability. Also used
the `provider = this.wizard.provider` and `provider = this.instance` syntax to make the render
function *completely portable*; it's the exact same text that is dropped into...
5. The complete `ak-application-wizard-authentication-by-oauth` component. They're so similar part
of me wonders if I could push them both out to a common reference, or a collection of common
references. Both components use the PropertyMapping and Sources, and both use the same
collection of searches (Crypto, Flow).
6. A Storybook for `ak-application-wizard-authentication-by-oauth`, showing the works working.
7. New mocks for `authorizationFlow`, `propertyMappings`, and `hasJWKs`.
This sequence has revealed a bug in the radio control. (It's always the radio control.) If the
default doesn't match the current setting, the radio control doesn't behave as expected; it won't
change when you fully expect that it should. I'll investigate how to harmonize those tomorrow.
This isn't really a very good hack; what it does is say that every story is
responsible for hacking its theme into the parent. This is very annoying, but
it does mean that we can at least show our components in the best light.
Because radio inputs are actually multiples, the events handling for
radio is... wonky. If we want our `<ak-radio>` component to be a
unitary event dispatcher, saying "This is the element selected," we
needed to do more than what was currently being handled.
I've intercepted the events that we care about and have placed
them into a controller that dictates both the setting and the
re-render of the component. This makes it "controlled" (to use the
Angular/React/Vue) language and depends on Lit's reactiveElement
lifecycle to work, rather than trust the browser, but the browser's
experience with respect to the `<input type=radio` is pretty bad:
both input elements fire events, one for "losing selection" and
one for "gaining selection". That can be very confusing to handle,
so we funnel them down in our aggregate radio element to a single
event, "selection changed".
As a quality-of-life measure, I've also set the label to be
unselectable; this means that a click on the label will trigger the
selection event, and a long click will not disable selection or
confuse the selection event generator.
the radio is sending the wrong value !?!?!?. Track that down, dammit. The search wrappers now resend
their events as standard `input` events, and that actually seems to work well; the browser is
decorating it with the right target, with the right `name` attribute, and since we have good
definitions of the `value` as a string (the real value of any search object is its UUID4), that
works quite well. Added search wrappers for CoreGroup and CryptoCertificate (CertificateKeyPairs),
and the latter has flags for "use the first one if it's the only one" and "allow the display of
keyless certificates."
Not sure why `state()` is blocking the transmission of typing information from the typed element
to the context handler, but it's a bug in the typechecker, and it's not a problem so far.

I become frustrated with my inability to make any progress on this project, so I decided to reach
for a tool that I consider highly reliable but also incredibly time-consuming and boring: test
driven development.
In this case, I wrote a story about how I wanted to see the first page rendered: just put the HTML
tag, completely unadorned, that will handle the first page of the wizard. Then, add an event handler
that will send the updated content to some parent object, since what we really want is to
orchestrate the state of the user's input with a centralized location. Then, rather than fiddling
with the attributes and properties of the various pages, I wanted them to be able to "look up" the
values they want, much as we'd expect a standalone form to be able to pull its values from the
server, so I added a context object that receives the update event and incorporates the new
knowledge about the state of the process into itself.
The result is surprisingly satisfying: the first page renders cleanly, displays the content that we
want, and as we fiddle with, we can *watch in real time* as the results of the context are updated
and retransmitted to all receiving objects. And the sending object gets the results so it
re-renders, but it ends up looking the same as it was before the render.
This is a pretty good result. By using the LightDOM setting, this
provides the existing Authentik form manager with access to the
ak-form-horizontal-element components without having to do any
cross-border magic. It's not ideal, and it shows up just how badly
we've got patternfly splattered everywhere, but the actual results
are remarkable. The patterns for text, switch, radio, textarea,
file, and even select are smaller and easier here.
I'm still noodling on what an unspread search-select element would
look like. It's just dependency injection, so it ought to be as
straightforward as that.
* web: weightloss program, part 1: FlowSearch
This commit extracts the multiple uses of SearchSelect for Flow lookups in the `providers`
collection and replaces them with a slightly more legible format, from:
```HTML
<ak-search-select
.fetchObjects=${async (query?: string): Promise<Flow[]> => {
const args: FlowsInstancesListRequest = {
ordering: "slug",
designation: FlowsInstancesListDesignationEnum.Authentication,
};
if (query !== undefined) {
args.search = query;
}
const flows = await new FlowsApi(DEFAULT_CONFIG).flowsInstancesList(args);
return flows.results;
}}
.renderElement=${(flow: Flow): string => {
return RenderFlowOption(flow);
}}
.renderDescription=${(flow: Flow): TemplateResult => {
return html`${flow.name}`;
}}
.value=${(flow: Flow | undefined): string | undefined => {
return flow?.pk;
}}
.selected=${(flow: Flow): boolean => {
return flow.pk === this.instance?.authenticationFlow;
}}
>
</ak-search-select>
```
... to:
```HTML
<ak-flow-search
flowType=${FlowsInstancesListDesignationEnum.Authentication}
.currentFlow=${this.instance?.authenticationFlow}
required
></ak-flow-search>
```
All of those middle methods, like `renderElement`, `renderDescription`, etc, are *completely the
same* for *all* of the searches, and there are something like 25 of them; this commit only covers
the 8 in `providers`, but the next commit should carry all of them.
The topmost example has been extracted into its own Web Component, `ak-flow-search`, that takes only
two arguments: the type of `FlowInstanceListDesignation` and the current instance of the flow.
The static methods for `renderElement`, `renderDescription` and `value` (which are all the same in
all 25 instances of `FlowInstancesListRequest`) have been made into standalone functions.
`fetchObjects` has been made into a method that takes the parameter from the `designation` property,
and `selected` has been turned into a method that takes the comparator instance from the
`currentFlow` property. That's it. That's the whole of it.
`SearchSelect` now emits an event whenever the user changes the field, and `ak-flow-search`
intercepts that event to mirror the value locally.
`Form` has been adapted to recognize the `ak-flow-search` element and extract the current value.
There are a number of legibility issues remaining, even with this fix. The Authentik Form manager
is dependent upon a component named `ak-form-element-horizontal`, which is a container for a single
displayed element in a form:
```HTML
<ak-form-element-horizontal
label=${msg("Authorization flow")}
?required=${true}
name="authorizationFlow"
>
<ak-flow-search
flowType=${FlowsInstancesListDesignationEnum.Authorization}
.currentFlow=${this.instance?.authorizationFlow}
required
></ak-flow-search>
<p class="pf-c-form__helper-text">
${msg("Flow used when authorizing this provider.")}
</p>
</ak-form-element-horizontal>
```
Imagine, instead, if we could write:
```HTML
<ak-form-element-flow-search
flowType=${FlowsInstancesListDesignationEnum.Authorization}
.currentFlow=${this.instance?.authorizationFlow}
required
name="authorizationFlow">
<label slot="label">${msg("Authorization flow")}</label>
<span slot="help">${msg("Flow used when authorizing this provider.")}</span>
<ak-form-element-flow-search>
```
Starting with a superclass that understands the need for `label` and `help` slots, it would
automatically configure the input object that would be used. We've already specified multiple
identical copies of this thing in multiple different places; centralizing their definition and then
re-using them would be classic code re-use.
Even better, since the Authorization flow is used 10 times in the whole of our code base, and the
Authentication flow 8 times, and they are *all identical*, it would be fitting if we just created
wrappers:
```HTML
<ak-form-element-flow-search
flowType=${FlowsInstancesListDesignationEnum.Authorization}>
<ak-form-element-flow-search>
```
That's really all that's needed. There are *hundreds* (about 470 total) cases where nine or more
lines of repetitious HTML could be replaced with a one-liner like the above.
A "narrow waist" design is one that allows for a system to communicate between two different
components through a small but consistent collection of calls. The Form manager needs to be narrowed
hard. The `ak-form-element-horizontal` is a wrapper around an input object, and it has this at its
core for extracting that information. This forwards the name component to the containing input
object so that when the input object generates an event, we can identify the field it's associated
with.
```Javascript
this.querySelectorAll("*").forEach((input) => {
switch (input.tagName.toLowerCase()) {
case "input":
case "textarea":
case "select":
case "ak-codemirror":
case "ak-chip-group":
case "ak-search-select":
case "ak-radio":
input.setAttribute("name", this.name);
break;
default:
return;
}
```
A *temporary* variant of this is in the `ak-flow-search` component, to support this API without
having to modify `ak-form-element-horizontal`.
And then `ak-form` itself has this:
```Javascript
if (
inputElement.tagName.toLowerCase() === "select" &&
"multiple" in inputElement.attributes
) {
const selectElement = inputElement as unknown as HTMLSelectElement;
json[element.name] = Array.from(selectElement.selectedOptions).map((v) => v.value);
} else if (
inputElement.tagName.toLowerCase() === "input" &&
inputElement.type === "date"
) {
json[element.name] = inputElement.valueAsDate;
} else if (
inputElement.tagName.toLowerCase() === "input" &&
inputElement.type === "datetime-local"
) {
json[element.name] = new Date(inputElement.valueAsNumber);
}
// ... another 20 lines removed
```
This ought to read:
```Javascript
const json = elements.filter((element => element instanceof AkFormComponent)
.reduce((acc, element) => ({ ...acc, [element.name]: element.value] });
```
Where, instead of hand-writing all the different input objects for date and datetime and checkbox
into our forms, and then having to craft custom value extractors for each and every one of them,
just write *one* version of each with all the wrappers and bells and whistles already attached, and
have each one of them have a `value` getter descriptor that returns the value expected by our form
handler.
A back-of-the-envelope estimation is that there's about four *thousand* lines that could disappear
if we did this right.
More importantly, it would be possible to create new `AkFormComponent`s without having to register
them or define them for `ak-form`; as long as they conformed to the AkFormComponent's expectations
for "what is a source of values for a Form", `ak-form` would understand how to handle it.
Ultimately, what I want is to be able to do this:
``` HTML
<ak-input-form
itemtype="ak-search"
itemid="ak-authentication"
itemprop=${this.instance}></ak-inputform>
```
And it will (1) go out and find the right kind of search to put there, (2) conduct the right kind of
fetch to fill that search, (3) pre-configure it with the user's current choice in that locale.
I don't think this is possible-- for one thing, it would be very expensive in terms of development,
and it may break the "narrow waist" ideal by require that the `ak-input-form` object know all the
different kinds of searches that are available. The old Midgardian dream was that the object would
have *just* the identity triple (A table, a row of that table, a field of that row), and the
Javascript would go out and, using the identity, *find* the right object for CRUD (Creating,
Retrieving, Updating, and Deleting) it.
But that inspiration, as unreachable as it is, is where I'm headed. Where our objects are both
*smart* and *standalone*. Where they're polite citizens in an ordered universe, capable of
independence sufficient to be tested and validated and trusted, but working in concert to achieve
our aims.
* web: unravel the search-select for flows completely.
This commit removes *all* instances of the search-select
for flows, classifying them into four different categories:
- a search with no default
- a search with a default
- a search with a default and a fallback to a static default if non specified
- a search with a default and a fallback to the tenant's preferred default if this is a new instance
and no flow specified.
It's not humanly possible to test all the instances where this has been committed, but the linters
are very happy with the results, and I'm going to eyeball every one of them in the github
presentation before I move this out of draft.

* web: basic cleanup of buttons
This commit adds Storybook features to the Authentik four-stage button.
The four-stage button is used to:
- trigger an action
- show that the action is running
- show when the action has succeeded, then reset
- show when the action has failed, then reset
It is used mostly for fetching data from the server. The variants are:
- ak-spinner-button: The basic form takes a single property argument, `callAction` a function that
returns a Promise (an asynchronous function).
- ak-action-button: Takes an API request function (which are all asynchronous) and adapts it to the
`callAction`. The only difference in behavior with the Spinner button is that on failure the error
message will be displayed by a notification.
- ak-token-copy-button: A specialized button that, on success, pushes the content of the retrieved
object into the clipboard.
Cleanup consisted of:
- removing a lot of the in-line code from the HTML, decluttering it and making more explicit what
the behaviors of each button type are on success and on failure.
- Replacing the ad-hoc Promise management with Lit's own `Task` handler. The `Task` handler knows
how to notify a Lit-Element of its own internal state change, making it ideal for objects like
this button that need to change their appearance as a Promise'd task progresses from idle →
running → (success or failure).
- Providing JSDoc strings for all of the properties, slots, attributes, elements, and events.
- Adding 'pointer-events: none' during the running phases of the action, to prevent the user from
clicking the button multiple times and launching multiple queries.
- Emitting an event for every stage of the operation:
- `ak-button-click` when the button is clicked.
- `ak-button-success` when the action completes. The payload is included in `Event.detail.result`
- `ak-button-failure` when the action fails. The error message is included in `Event.detail.error`
- `ak-button-reset` when the button completes a notification and goes back to idle
**Storybook**
Since the API requests for both `ak-spinner-button` and `ak-action-button` require only that a
promise be returned, Storybooking them was straightforward. `ak-token-copy-button` is a
special-purpose derivative with an internal functionality that can't be easily mocked (yet), so
there's no Storybook for it.
All of the stories provide the required asynchronous function, in this cose one that waits three
seconds before emitting either a `response` or `reject` Promise.
`ak-action-button`'s Story has event handler code so that pressing on the button will result in a
message being written to a display block under the button.
I've added a new pair of class mixins, `CustomEmitterElement` and `CustomListenerElement`. These
each add an additional method to the classes they're mixed into; one provides a very easy way to
emit a custom event and one provides a way to receive the custom event while sweeping all of the
custom event type handling under the rug.
`emitCustomEvent` replaces this:
``` JavaScript
this.dispatchEvent(
new CustomEvent('ak-button-click', {
composed: true,
bubbles: true,
detail: {
target: this,
result: "Some result, huh?"
},
})
);
```
... with this:
``` JavaScript
this.dispatchCustomEvent('ak-button-click', { result: "Some result, huh?" });
```
The `CustomListenerElement` handler just ensures that the handler being passed to it takes a
CustomEvent, and then makes sure that any actual event passed to the handler has been type-guarded
to ensure it is a custom event.
**Observations**
*Composition vs Inheritance, Part 1*
The four-state button has three implementations. All three inherit from `BaseTaskButton`:
- `spinner`
- provides a default `callAction()`
- `action`
- provides a different name for `callAction`
- overrides `onError` to display a Notification.
- `token-copy`
- provides a custom `callAction`
- overrides `onSuccess` to copy the results to the keyboard
- overrides `onError` to display a Notification, with special handling for asynchronous
processing.
The *results* of all of these could be handled higher up as event handlers, and the button could be
just a thing that displays the states. As it is, the BaseStateToken has only one reason to change
(the Promise changes its state), so I'm satisfied that this is a suitable evolution of the product,
and that it does what it says it does.
*Developer Ergonomics*
The one thing that stands out to me time and again is just how *confusing* all of the Patternfly
stuff tends to be; not because it's not logical, but because it overwhelms the human 7±2 ability to
remember details like this without any imperative to memorize all of them. I would like to get them
under control by marshalling them under a semantic CSS regime, but I'm blocked by some basic
disconnects in the current development environment. We can't shake out the CSS as much as we'd like
because there's no ESPrima equivalent for Typescript, and the smallest bundle purgeCSS is capable of
making for just *one* button is about 55KB. That's a bit too much. It's a great system for getting
off the ground, but long-term it needs more love than we (can) give it.
* Prettier has opinions.
* Removed extraneous debugging code.
* Added comments to the BaseTaskButton parent class.
* web: fixed two build errors (typing) in the stories.
* web: prettier's got opinions
* web: refactor the buttons
This commit adds URL mocking to Storybook, which in turn allows us to
commit a Story for ak-token-copy-button.
I have confirmed that the button's algorithm for writing to the
clipboard works on Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. I don't know
what's up with IE.
* ONE BYTE in .storybook/main blocked integration.
With the repair of lit-analyze, it's time to fix the rule set
to at least let us pass for the moment.
* Still looking for the list of exceptions in lit-analyze that will let us pass once more.
* web: repair error in EnterpriseLicenseForm
This commit continues to find the right configuration for
lit-analyze. During the course of this repair, I discovered
a bug in the EnterpriseLicenseForm; the original usage could
result in the _string_ `undefined` being passed back as a
value. To handle the case where the value truly is undefined,
the `ifDefined()` directive must be used in the HTML template.
I have also instituted a case-by-case stylistic decision to allow
the HTML, and only the HTML, to be longer that 100 characters
when doing so reduces the visual "noise" of a function.
* web: begin refactoring the application for future development
This commit:
- Deletes a bit of code.
- Extracts *all* of the Locale logic into a single folder, turns management of the Locale files over
to Lit itself, and restricts our responsibility to setting the locale on startup and when the user
changes the locale. We do this by converting a lot of internal calls into events; a request to
change a locale isn't a function call, it's an event emitted asking `REQUEST_LOCALE_CHANGE`. We've
even eliminated the `DETECT_LOCALE_CHANGE` event, which redrew elements with text in them, since
Lit's own `@localized()` decorator does that for us automagically.
- We wrap our interfaces in an `ak-locale-context` that handles the startup and listens for the
`REQUEST_LOCALE_CHANGE` event.
- ... and that's pretty much it. Adding `@localized()` as a default behavior to `AKElement` means
no more custom localization is needed *anywhere*.
* web: improve the localization experience
This commit fixes the Storybook story for the localization context component,
and fixes the localization initialization pass so that it is only called once
per interface environment initialization. Since all our interfaces share the
same environment (the Django server), this preserves functionality across
all interfaces.
