# Haystacks-Async

A basic NodeJS platform that can be easily be used in your application as the command interface and execution environment written with ES6 syntax. The testHarness provides an example template application for how to use the platform, see instructions below on how to setup the environment locally or how to implement your own application using Haystacks. There is an example architecture with coding patterns you can follow to build out your own, cross platform (Windows, Mac & Linux) applications and enterprise scale business automation applications.

# Purpose

The purpose of this repository is to provide a command-line utility, interface and design patterns to build any kind of command line application that you need or want. Special focus will be on automation, specifically testing automation. It's a general purpose automation development platform, but not to the exclusion of supporting the development of any other kind of command line application, such as an installer, a test data management system, a stock trading bot or network security scanning tool, data conversion tool or any other kind of application that can be run from a command line.

# Run Locally

Pre-requisites Install NPM - NODE Package Manager (>= v16) https://nodejs.org/en/download/ Install GIT or Git-for-Windows https://git-scm.com/downloads

Open your favorite CLI/Powershell/BASH/CMD tool. Navigate to your favorite projects folder. Enter the command:

      git clone https://github.com/SethEden/haystacks-async.git

Navigate into the haystacks folder. Enter the command:

      npm install
      npm link

Navigate into the folder ./test/testHarness. Enter the command:

      npm install
      npm link @haystacks/async

If you wish to run the plugins as well, follow these additional instructions: Under your favorite projects folder, create a new folder called: haystacks-plugins Navigate into this folder and enter the following commands to clone all three of the haystacks prototype test plugins.

      git clone https://github.com/SethEden/plugin-one.git
      git clone https://github.com/SethEden/plugin-two.git
      git clone https://github.com/SethEden/plugin-three.git

Navigate into each of these three folders and for each folder enter the following commands:

      npm install
      npm link @haystacks/async

Open the file in the path: ./test/testHarness/src/resources/plugins/plugins.json Delete the contents of the plugins array so that it looks like this: "plugins": [] Then insert the path to your haystacks-plugins folder that you created in the step above like this:

      "path": "/home/myHomePath/haystacks-plugins/",

If you wish to NOT load or run plugins then follow this step: Load the file in the path: ./test/testHarness/src/resources/configuration/application.system.json Change the setting for: enablePluginLoader to false like so:

      "system.enablePluginLoader": false,

Then save the file.

Navigate in your command window/shell/CLI back to the haystacks root path. You can run the command by starting from the development environment by using NPM. Enter the command:

      npm test

This will launch the testHarness application from the development environment.

If you do enable the plugins flag, there are many plugins related commands that allow you to do many plugin related activities such as:

      listAllLoadedPlugins
      listAllPluginsInRegistry
      listAllPluginsInRegistryPath
      countPluginsInRegistry
      countPluginsInRegistryPath
      registerPlugin
      unregisterPlugin
      unregisterPlugins (A list of plugins)
      syncPluginRegistryWithPath
      listPluginsRegistryPath
      unregisterAllPlugins
      savePluginRegistryToDisk
      loadPlugin
      loadPlugins (A list of plugins to load)
      loadPluginsFromRegistry
      unloadPlugin
      unloadPlugins (A list of plugins to unload)
      unloadAllPlugins

# Useful stuff you can do

I will assume you are still running in the argumentDrivenInterface value="false" mode for this tutorial. This mode can be enabled in the configuration file to enable processing of command-line arguments as input to drive actions processing without user interaction. The argumentDriveInterface setting will not prevent you from entering command arguments and executing them when the application starts before entering into the main program loop. The argumentDriveInterface will only disable the main program loop from going into an interactive command prompt loop. Rather with this setting set to true the application will exit after finishing the execution of your input argument as a command.

Once you enter the command:

      npm test

The application will display the application name, version number and application description:

    > node ./test/testHarness/src/testHarness.js

    0.0.1
    A test harness application to test the haystacks framework.
    BEGIN main program loop
    BEGIN command parser
    >

The application is now running and awaiting input via an interactive command prompt that will process commands entered in a program loop. If you are not sure what you can do, you can type the command:

      ?

and press enter. You should see a table of commands:

NOTE: The above command table listing shows what it would look like if all three of the prototype plugins are also loaded: plugin-one, plugin-two, plugin-three. If the "enablePluginLoader" setting is disabled these plugins will not load and all commands and workflows relating to these plugins will not be present.

One thing you can do is type:

      workflow?

and press enter. This will display a list of all the workflows the application supports: (Abbreviated because the list is very long!)

You can run any of these workflows simply by typing the command: workflow and press enter. I recommend the following command:

      workflow allBusinessRulesWorkflows

This will run all of the client defined business rules and all of the framework defined business rules sequentially. Client defined business rules can be found in the path:

    ./test/testHarness/src/businessRules/clientRules/*.js

Framework defined business rules can be found in the path:

    ./src/businessRules/rules/*.js

All of these business rules are merged at runtime as a function of how the haystacks framework is implemented at the architectural level.

The output should look something like this (abbreviated because the output is very long!)

Now that all the business rules have been run sequentially you can run this command to compute statistical analysis on the performance data gathered on the execution of these business rules.

      businessRulesMetrics

This will compute and then display the performance statistics from the workflow you just performed:

It is also possible to clear these command logs independently with the commands:

      clearUserCommandsLog
      clearAllCommandsLog

If you want to control the ability to clear these logs, or the ability to generate them in the first place for any reason, the settings are found in the file located here: ./test/testHarness/src/resources/configuration/application.system.json The settings to control these behaviors are:

      "system.logUserEnteredCommands": true,
      "system.logAllCommands": true,
      "system.enableUserCommandsLogClearing": true,
      "system.enableAllCommandsLogClearing": true,

There are some application specific commands you can use when you build your own application. If you copy the contents of the testHarness folder and use that code as a template to build your own application, it has some pre-built commands that your application can use to help your users, and also help you as a developer of your application. The useful application specific commands are:

      applicationHelp
      applicationWorkflowHelp
      validateApplicationConstants
      validateApplicationCommandAliases
      validateApplicationWorkflows
      allApplicationValidations

The first two of these commands: applicationHelp and applicationWorkflowHelp can be abbreviated as follows for simplicity:

      app?
      AppWflow?

The commands: validateApplicationConstants, validateApplicationCommandAliases, validateApplicationWorkflows, and allApplicationValidations Will execute constants validation for the application constants and all of the loaded plugin constants. If no plugins are loaded and/or the enablePluginLoader setting is disabled, then no plugin constants validation will be run. The same goes for all of these validation commands which are looking for duplicate command aliases and workflows respectively. It may also be valuable to occasionally run the Haystacks validation commands, not always just the application specific validation commands to check and make sure you haven't created any collisions with haystacks defined command aliases or haystacks defined workflows. Unfortunately, these commands currently take a significant amount of time. There will be a future effort to improve the data efficiency of the system at some point in the future by moving the back-end data structures to a Red-Black Binary Search Tree or RB-BST. This will take a significant effort given all the algorithms that will need to be implemented for how all the haystacks sub-systems are interfacing with the data. The data is often represented in a hierarchy format, with heirarchal namespace context information. Preserving this functionality especially for recursive functions will be a challenge to overcome, but not impossible.

# Exit / Quit

To exit the application simply type the command:

      x

or X, or exist or Exit or quit, etc...

    >x
    END command parser
    END main program loop
    Exiting TEST HARNESS APPLICATION
    END testHarness.application Function

    C:\haystacks-async>

# Debugging

If you want to or need to debug any part of the application, or you are building on some business rules and adding functions that you want to debug. Simply continue to following the existing patterns in the code then add your functions to the appropriate file .json under the following path: ./src/resources/configuration/debugSettings/... Or in the testHarness: ./test/testHarness/src/resources/configuration/debugSettings/...

If you want to debug any function in the entire framework you can find the related .json file open it and change either the file level log setting or the function level log setting like so:

Let us assume we want to debug the framework system commands. We can load the file found at the following path: ./src/resources/configuration/debugSettings/commandsBlob/commands/system.json

You'll see some JSON code that looks like this:

    {
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system": false,
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@ModuleFontStyle": "Bold|Underline",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@FunctionFontStyle": "Bold|Underline",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@MessageFontStyle": "Underline",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@DataFontStyle": "Bold",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@ModuleFontColor": "255,127,0",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@FunctionFontColor": "0,0,0",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@MessageFontColor": "255,127,0",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@DataFontColor": "0,0,0",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@ModuleFontBackgroundColor": "211,211,211",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@FunctionFontBackgroundColor": "255,255,255",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@MessageFontBackgroundColor": "211,211,211",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system@DataFontBackgroundColor": "255,255,255",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand": false,
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@ModuleFontStyle": "Default",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@FunctionFontStyle": "Default",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@MessageFontStyle": "Default",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@DataFontStyle": "Default",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@ModuleFontColor": "Blue",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@FunctionFontColor": "Blue",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@MessageFontColor": "Blue",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@DataFontColor": "Yellow",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@ModuleFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@FunctionFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@MessageFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand@DataFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.exit": false,
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.exit@ModuleFontStyle": "Default",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.exit@FunctionFontStyle": "Default",
      ...
    }

Pay special attention to the following 3 entries:

    "debugFiles|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system": false,
    ...
    "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.echoCommand": false,
    ...
    "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.exit": false,

The first of these is the setting to enable logging of all commands in the system.js file. The second line is the setting to enable logging for the echoCommand command ONLY. The third line is the setting to enable logging for the exit command ONLY.

In this way you can control the logging for the beginning, ending, inputs and outputs of every single function in the entire haystacks platform and the application or any plugins that might be loaded as well.

Look for the following line and change it as follows and we will see how the output changes, changing the value to "true":

    "debugFunctions|debugSetting.framework.commandsBlob.commands.system.name": false,

Save the file, and re-run the application using the command:

      npm test

    C:\haystacks>npm run test

    > haystacks@0.0.7 test
    > babel-node ./test/testHarness/src/testHarness.js

    BEGIN testHarness.application Function
    BEGIN commandsBlob.commands.system.name Function
    inputData is: ["name","application","true"]
    inputMetaData is:

    returnData is: true
    END commandsBlob.commands.system.name Function
    0.0.1
    A test harness application to test the haystacks framework.
    BEGIN main program loop
    BEGIN command parser

Notice this time we have the following output lines:

    BEGIN commandsBlob.commands.system.name Function
    inputData is: ["name","application","true"]
    inputMetaData is:

and:

    returnData is: true
    END commandsBlob.commands.system.name Function

These are the debugging lines included in this command function.

      BEGIN commandsBlob.commands.system.name Function - is logged from when the execution of the function begins.
      inputData is: ["name","application","true"] - logs the first input to the function.
      inputMetaData is: - logs the second input to the function, in this case it's an empty string because we don't use the second input.

      returnData is: true - logs the return data from the function. In the case of commands they should always return true to indicate that the application should continue to execute,
      provided it is in the interactive mode and the argumentDrivenInterface configuration setting is set to False.
      The only time a command function should return false is if it is going to exit the application, which is exactly what the Exit command does.
      END commandsBlob.commands.system.name Function - logs the end of the function 1 line of code before the actual return/end of the function.

You can also enable logging for an entire file/class of functions simply by changing the configuration setting for a particular file/class. Here you can see the configuration setting for the warden.js which acts as an internal central control manager for execution of the entire application/framework: The file is found at the following path:

    ./src/resources/configuration/debugSettings/controllers/warden.json

    {
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden": false,
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@ModuleFontStyle": "Bold|Underline",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@FunctionFontStyle": "Bold|Underline",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@MessageFontStyle": "Underline",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@DataFontStyle": "Bold",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@ModuleFontColor": "Red",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@FunctionFontColor": "Red",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@MessageFontColor": "Red",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@DataFontColor": "Yellow",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@ModuleFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@FunctionFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@MessageFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden@DataFontBackgroundColor": "Black",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.controllers.warden.initFrameworkSchema": false,
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.controllers.warden.initFrameworkSchema@ModuleFontStyle": "Default",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.controllers.warden.initFrameworkSchema@FunctionFontStyle": "Default",
      "debugFunctions|debugSetting.controllers.warden.initFrameworkSchema@MessageFontStyle": "Default",

Change the following line as follows, then resave the file. NOTE: I have also reverted the above change in the system.json file.

    "debugFiles|debugSetting.controllers.warden": true,

Now after re-running the command:

      npm run test

The following output will be displayed:

Here you can see that a large number of functions have been called, as well as the inputs to some functions and also some of the variables that are being set and processed inside some functions. So if you want to see what is going on inside the application while it is running this is an excellent developers tool that allows you to control what is logged from where and when and even in the what color/font-style.

There is a way to automate this process using the pre-defined workflows. To enable the same setting in the warden you can simple execute the command:

      workflow wardenEnable

NOTE: When this workflow is executed, it will only enable the setting at run-time in memory, it doesn't modify the file. So exiting and reloading will not persist the setting change. NOTE: There are already workflows that allow you to enable or disable every single function and every single file in the entire code base, at the Haystacks or TestHarness levels, even at the Plugins level.

Following the same patterns will allow you to instrument and automate the debug logs for your own code base and applications and/or plugins.

There are also commands to change the theme for the colors that appear in the console log for all the various files. You can list the themes supported by the system by entering the command:

      listConfigurationThemes

You will get an output like this:

      themesList is: ["Default","Matrix","Skywalker","Tron","Vader"]

You can change the debug theme with this command:

      changeDebugConfigurationTheme Vader

The debug console log colors will change to all shades of red like the light saber for Darth Vader from Star Wars.

NOTE: If you have any debug settings enabled these settings will get reset when you change themes, because the theme swap is changing out all of the debug configuration settings. You will need to re-enable any debug flags that you want to capture to see the new theme debug colors take effect.

There is a workflow that demonstrates this effect. Just run the workflow command:

      workflow DemoAllThemes

The output will execute a series of workflows that enable many debug logs, execute some workflows, then change the debug theme and again enable many debug logs and again execute the same workflow. The command will continue to do this over and over again, working through all of the different themes so you can see how the colors change on the console with each theme change. In the end all the debug settings will be reset to the off-state, and the debug theme will be reset back to the default.

# Summary

Feel free to copy the testHarness folder and build your own Haystacks-async command line application. I will continue to now proceed building several additional applications of my own using the Haystacks-async platform.

You are welcome to make code additions and/or refinements and all changes will be reviewed carefully. Please read the community guidelines on how to make contributions.

NOTE: There is an easter egg in the software, and it is not too difficult to find. I'll let you have fun with it. It is intended to have fun, not too serious all business. I'll give you a hint. The easter egg is in the testHarness. Enjoy!
