VSCode extensions can use authentication providers to enable authentication actions from the Accounts menu, and to allow for federated authentication. The Sourcegraph Search extension needs neither of those - it can meet all of its authentication needs with the existing actions in is side panel. On top of that, the authentication provider isn't implemented quite correctly, which leads to issues like #43608. This PR removes the authentication provider. It retains all of the expected behavior of the extension: the user can still authenticate against sourcegraph.com or private instances using an access token, and log out. ## Test plan ### First Build and run locally. ``` git switch peterguy/vscode-remove-auth-provider cd client/vscode pnpm run build ``` ### Then - Launch extension in VSCode: open the `Run and Debug` sidebar view in VS Code, then select `Launch VS Code Extension` from the dropdown menu. - Note that the Accounts icon does not display a "1" badge and "Sign in with SOURCEGRAPH_AUTH" is not present in the menu. - Click on `Have an account?` to open the login dialog. - Enter an access token and the URL of the Sourcegraph instance to which you would like to connect. - Click `Authenticate account`. - Check the Accounts icon and menu - should not be anything there that's a result of Sourcegraph Search. - In the Help and Feedback section, click your username to open the logout panel, then log out. - Note again, the lack of modifications to the Accounts icon and menu from the Sourcegraph Search extension. ## Changelog - Remove interaction between the Sourcegraph Search extension and the Accounts menu. |

Frontend packages
List
- web: The web application deployed to http://sourcegraph.com/
- browser: The Sourcegraph browser extension adds tooltips to code on different code hosts.
- vscode: The Sourcegraph VS Code extension.
- extension-api: The Sourcegraph extension API types for the Sourcegraph extensions. Published as
sourcegraph. - extension-api-types: The Sourcegraph extension API types for client applications that embed Sourcegraph extensions and need to communicate with them. Published as
@sourcegraph/extension-api-types. - sandboxes: All demos-mvp (minimum viable product) for the Sourcegraph web application.
- shared: Contains common TypeScript/React/SCSS client code shared between the browser extension and the web app. Everything in this package is code-host agnostic.
- branded: Contains React components and implements the visual design language we use across our web app and e.g. in the options menu of the browser extension. Over time, components from
sharedandbrandedpackages should be moved into thewildcardpackage. - wildcard: Package that encapsulates storybook configuration and contains our Wildcard design system components. If we're using a component in two or more different areas (e.g.
web-appandbrowser-extension) then it should live in thewildcardpackage. Otherwise the components should be better colocated with the code where they're actually used. - search: Search-related code that may be shared between all clients, both branded (e.g. web, VS Code extension) and unbranded (e.g. browser extension)
- storybook: Storybook configuration.
Further migration plan
-
Fix circular dependency in TS project-references graph wildcard package should not rely on web and probably shared, branded too. Ideally it should be an independent self-contained package.
-
Decide on package naming and update existing package names. Especially it should be done for a shared package because we have multiple
sharedfolders inside of other packages. It's hard to understand from where dependency is coming from and it's not possible to refactor import paths using find-and-replace. -
Investigate if we can painlessly switch to
npmworkspaces. -
Content of packages shared and branded should be moved to wildcard and refactored using the latest FE rules and conventions. Having different packages clearly communicates the migration plan. Developers first should look for components in the wildcard package and then fall-back to legacy packages if wildcard doesn't have the solution to their problem yet.
-
shared contains utility functions, types, polyfills, etc which is not a part of the Wildcard component library. These modules should be moved into utils package and other new packages: e.g. api for GraphQL client and type generators, etc.
-
Packages should use package name (e.g.
@sourcegraph/wildcard) for imports instead of the relative paths (e.g.../../../../wildcard/src/components/Markdown) to avoid long relative-paths and make dependency graph between packages clear. (Typescript will warn if packages have circular dependencies). It's easy to refactor such isolated packages, extract functionality into new ones, or even into new repositories.
