Manual configuration via the `MOUNTS` setting was inconvenient. We
(re)introduce a new(ish) `tutor mounts` command. Old timers will perhaps
remember that we used to have a `tutor bindmount` command. Well, it's
back! But better and different.
Templated hooks we almost completely useless, so we get rid of them.
This allows us to get rid entirely of hook names and hook indexes, which
makes the whole implementation much simpler. Hook removal (with
`clear_all`) is achieved thanks to weak references.
This is an important change, where we get remove the previous `--mount`
option, and instead opt for persistent bind-mounts.
Persistent bind mounts have several advantages:
- They make it easier to remember which folders need to be bind-mounted.
- Code is *much* less clunky, as we no longer need to generate temporary
docker-compose files.
- They allow us to bind-mount host directories *at build time* using the
buildx `--build-context` option.
- The transition from development to production becomes much easier, as
images will automatically be built using the host repo.
The only drawback is that persistent bind-mounts are slightly less
portable: when a config.yml file is moved to a different folder, many
things will break if the repo is not checked out in the same path.
For instance, this is how to start working on a local fork of
edx-platform:
tutor config save --append MOUNTS=/path/to/edx-platform
And that's all there is to it. No, this fork will be used whenever we
run:
tutor images build openedx
tutor local start
tutor dev start
This change is made possible by huge improvements in the build time
performance. These improvements make it convenient to re-build Docker
images often.

It was useless to create a *-permissions job for every application.
Instead, we create a single "permissions" service. It can be extended
via the "docker-compose-permissions-command" patch.
Instead, the compose plugin must be installed.
We deprecate docker-compose because v1 is not supported starting from
the end of June 2023.
See "evolution of compose": https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-v2/
Among other changes: ORA2 file uploads were stored in a folder named
"SET-ME-PLEASE (ex. bucket-name)" (sigh). With this change, the folder
should be automatically renamed to "openedxuploads". This issue has been
occuring since June 2019... (sigh²)

This paves the way for `docker buildx build` and better caching.
For instance, with this change you can try out the following plugin,
which should make image building much faster in CI:
https://gist.github.com/regisb/4049622ec4b48cbd48c89ec708dc5252
(not ready for production just yet, we still need to build and push the
images)
In the output of `plugins list` it's difficult to see which plugins are
enabled at a glance. This change adds a more visible checkmark to the
output.
Ex:
$ tutor plugins list
NAME STATUS VERSION
cairn ✅ enabled 15.0.3
discovery installed 15.0.0
ecommerce installed 15.0.1
forum installed 14.0.0
mfe ✅ enabled 15.0.5
minio installed 15.1.0
Before this commit, setting up an edx-platform development environment
took multiple steps:
tutor dev launch
tutor dev run --mount=/path/to/edx-platform lms bash
>> pip install -e .
>> npm clean-install
>> openedx-assets build --env=dev
This commit moves the steps under ``run`` into an init task, which
is automatically run by ``launch``. Thus, setup is now one command:
tutor dev launch --mount=edx-platform
These extra init steps are only applicable when bind-mounting
edx-platform (because bind-mounting the repository overrides
some important artifacts that exist on the image, which must be
re-generated). Thus, the new init tasks exists early if it detects
that it is *not* operating on a bind-mounted repository.
Finally, we try to simplify the Open edX development docs so that
it is clearer how bind-mounting fits into the development process.
These bind-mounts:
* ../build/openedx/themes:/openedx/themes
* ../build/openedx/requirements:/openedx/requirements
existed in the dev lms and cms containers, but they did
not exist in the lms-job and cms-job containers.
This means that themes and requirements that were *built into the
image* would exist in the job containers, but live updates to the
themes and requirements would not apply.
To resolve this, we set ``volumes:`` on the lms-job and cms-job
services so that they match the volumes for the normal lms and
cms services.
Part of: https://github.com/openedx/wg-developer-experience/issues/146
Closes: https://github.com/openedx/wg-developer-experience/issues/152
This works around (but does not close) these related issues:
* https://github.com/openedx/wg-developer-experience/issues/150
* https://github.com/openedx/wg-developer-experience/issues/151
The lms-job and cms-job services were configured to use
{{ DOCKER_IMAGE_OPENEDX }} rather than {{ DOCKER_IMAGE_OPENEDX_DEV }}.
This means that when running jobs in dev mode, a la:
tutor dev do init
a production image would be used, to the user's surprise.
When a job is invoked, we now replace the job in k8s/jobs.yml
instead of rewriting jobs.yml to only contain the relevant
job. This allows patchStrategicMerge to work for jobs.
