Part of https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph/issues/62448 Linear issue [SRCH-573](https://linear.app/sourcegraph/issue/SRCH-573/integrate-cody-web-package-into-the-sourcegraph-ui) This is highly experimental usage of the new (not currently merged but published in NPM `cody-web-experimental`) package ## How to run it - (Optional) if you previously linked any local packages make sure they don't exist in your node_modules anymore, `rm -rf node_modules` in the root then `pnpm install` - Run standard `sg start web-standalone` - Turn on `newCodyWeb: true` in your `experimentalFeatures` ## How to run it locally with prototype PR in Cody repository - Open Cody repository on the `vk/integrate-cody-web-chat-2` branch - At the root of the repo, run `pnpm install` to make sure you're up to date with all of the dependencies. - Go to the web package (`cd web`) - Build it with `pnpm build` - Create a global link with `pnpm link --global` (Ignore the warning message about no binary) - Open sourcegraph/sourcegraph repository on this PR branch - Make sure you are in the root of the repo. - Run `pnpm link --global cody-web-experimental` - Run `sg start web-standalone` to bundle the web app and launch an instance that uses S2 for the backend. You'll need to create a login on S2 that is not federated by GitHub. - Turn on `newCodyWeb: true` in your `experimentalFeatures` - Have fun experimenting! ## Test plan - Check that old version of Cody has got no regressions |

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.
