Breaking changes

#3846 [core] Migrate frontend to React 18, you now need React 18 to import sirius web modules.
#3875 [sirius-web] The ExplorerView component has been moved from sirius-components-trees to sirius-web-application module
#3155 [core] All the paths in the code involving the modification of some data (project, semantic data, representation data, etc.) will now require a new parameter ICause cause which is the cause of this change. Both IInput and IDomainEvent implement ICause and will thus be used to indicate which action has triggered the change.
#3763 [core] updates some services behavior:
- The org.eclipse.sirius.components.emf.services.DefaultIdentityService#getId(Object object) Can now provides the Id if the Object is of type org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.Resource. Before this change, it would have returned null.
- The org.eclipse.sirius.components.emf.services.DefaultLabelService Can now provides the label if the Object is of type org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.Resource. Before this change, it would have returned an empty string.
- The org.eclipse.sirius.components.emf.services.DefaultContentService#getContents(Object) Can now provides the content if the Object is of type org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.Resource. Before this change, it would have returned an empty list.
#3972 [diagram] The InsideLabelStyle#displayHeaderSeparator has been renamed to headerSeparatorDisplayMode and is no longer a boolean but an enum with three possible values: NEVER, ALWAYS, and IF-CHILDREN. Previously, the value false was equivalent to NEVER, and true to IF-CHILDREN. The new option ALWAYS allows the separator to be displayed in every case.
#3678 [core] Remove IRepresentationMetadataSearchService#findByRepresentation, use IRepresentationMetadataSearchService#findByRepresentationId instead.
#4050 [sirius-web] IUploadFileLoader must now return an IResult. This allows an error to be displayed when there is a problem during uploading
#4037 [tree] The tree item id passed to ITreeQueryService.findTreeItem is no longer a UUID but is now a String.
#4077 [charts] Remove interface RepresentationMetadata from BarChart.types.ts.
#3840 [diagram] Migrate to ReactFlow 12, if you have components that uses the library then you’ll need to update them.
#2399 [core] When executing successive model operations inside a tool, the execution context (variables, in particular self) of all sibling operations now stays the same. This is much more natural and closer to the behavior of usual languages, but change the behavior.
#3679 [core] Split representation metadata from content + Remove org.eclipse.sirius.components.core.api.IRepresentationMetadataSearchService and its implementation. + Use org.eclipse.sirius.web.domain.boundedcontexts.representationdata.services.api.IRepresentationMetadataSearchService#findAllMetadataByTargetObjectId instead of org.eclipse.sirius.components.core.api.IRepresentationMetadataSearchService#findAllByTargetObjectId.
#3679 [sirius-web] The service hasChildren requires the editing context like the aql service getChildren.
#3983 [tree] The TreeDescription must now implement a dropTreeItemHandler.
#3680 [core] The label has been removed from the content of all representations. + The label of a representation is available through its metadata that can be retrieve thanks to the service IRepresentationMetadataSearchService from sirius-web-domain or, IRepresentationMetadataProvider from sirius-components-collaborative.
#4114 [sirius-web] The projectActionButtonMenuItemExtensionPoint extension point has been removed. Use the new projectContextMenuEntryExtensionPoint instead which allows the contribution of actual MenuItem components instead of just props. See ProjectDownloadMenuItemExtension for an example. Warning: while more powerful, the new extension point should be used with care: make sure all contributions return an actual MUI MenuItem component.
#3681 [sirius-web] Replace all representation specific rename event handlers by RenameRepresentationEventHandler. + It means that an application that only use sirius-components should provide its own means to rename a representation.
#3980 [core] Removed the label attribute from WorkbenchSelectionEntry (backend, GraphQL Schema and frontend).

Dependency update

[releng] Switch to Spring Boot 3.3.3
#3846 [core] Migrate the frontend to react 18.3.1, react-dom 18.3.1, react-router-dom 6.26.0, @xstate/react: 3.0.0 and @ObeoNetwork/gantt-task-react 0.6.0

New Features

#3763 [diagram] Make it possible to display semantic candidates in the selection dialog using a tree
#3979 [core] Add Project related REST APIs. The new endpoints are:
- getProjects (GET /api/rest/projects): Get all projects.

- createProject (POST /projects): Create a new project with the given name and description (optional).
- deleteProject (POST /api/rest/projects/{projectId}): Delete the project with the given id (projectId).
- updateProject (PUT /projects/{projectId}): Update the project with the given id (projectId). Add Object related REST APIs. The new endpoints are:
- getElements (GET /api/rest/projects/{projectId}/commits/{commitId}/elements): Get all the elements in a given project at the given commit. There are no commits in Sirius Web so you can use the same Id as the projectId for the commitId.
- getElementById (GET /api/rest/projects/{projectId}/commits/{commitId}/elements/{elementId}): Get element with the given id (elementId) in the given project at the given commit. There are no commits in Sirius Web so you can use the same Id as the projectId for the commitId.
- getRelationshipsByRelatedElement (GET /api/rest/projects/{projectId}/commits/{commitId}/elements/{elementId}/relationships): Get relationships that are incoming, outgoing, or both relative to the given related element. There are no commits in Sirius Web so you can use the same Id as the projectId for the commitId.
- getRootElements (GET /api/rest/projects/{projectId}/commits/{commitId}/roots): Get all the root elements in the given project at the given commit. There are no commits in Sirius Web so you can use the same Id as the projectId for the commitId. A new IObjectRestServiceDelegate interface is available, allowing to customize the default implementation of services related to Object related REST APIs. Specifiers can implement this new interface with a spring Service. Specifiers are also encouraged to implement their own JSON serializers for their domains, as the default one may not return expected results.

- editProjectNavbarMenuEntryExtensionPoint can be used to add new entries to the menu. See DownloadProjectMenuEntryContribution for an example. Warning: make sure all contributions return an actual MUI MenuItem component.
- editProjectNavbarMenuContainerExtensionPoint: can be used to wrap the menu inside a custom container, for example to add more context for the items or to completely replace the context menu.
#4114 [sirius-web] Two new extension points have been added to customize the context menu displayed for a project in the project browser:
- projectContextMenuEntryExtensionPoint can be used to add new entries to the menu. They will be added at the end after the default hard-coded actions. See ProjectDownloadMenuItemExtension for an example. Warning: make sure all contributions return an actual MUI MenuItem component.
- projectContextMenuContainerExtensionPoint: can be used to wrap the menu inside a custom container, for example to add more context for the items or to completely replace the context menu.

Deprecation warning

#3279 Starting with Sirius Web 2024.5.0, every maven modules used by sirius-web-sample-application in the sirius-web package will be deprecated including sirius-web-sample-application. This includes maven modules such as sirius-web-persistence, sirius-web-services, sirius-web-graphql among others. They will be replaced by the maven modules of the new architecture used by sirius-web. The removal of those deprecated modules will occur during the iteration 2024.9.0.

Breaking changes

#3271 [test] Move IGraphQLRequestor to org.eclipse.sirius.components.graphql.tests.api.
#3088 [diagram] Some changes have been made in the View DSL for diagram:
- attribute labelExpression has been renamed to centerLabelExpression for edges

  For further information, please refer to ADR 130_add_support_for_outside_inside_node_labels.adoc
#3237 [diagram] Update the name of the diagramEvent variable to diagramEvents to reflect that events are now stored in a list.
#2567 [form] The Slider widget is now a standard widget
#2567 [form] The TypeScript API used to contribute custom widgets has changed a little to fix some types which could not work in a strict TypeScript environment. The use of generics has thus been greatly reduced since they could not create a set of coherent TypeScript type signatures.
#3279 [core] Remove IRepresentationRefreshPolicyRegistry#add since it can easily be replaced with a plain old Spring service dependency injection

#3279 [sirius-web] The custom nodes project and its edit project have been renamed from sirius-web-customnodes{-edit} to sirius-components-view-diagram-customnodes{-edit} and moved to match other view based projects. They are also now used by the view builder code generator.
#3382 [diagram] Remove the hardcoded show/hide tools in the frontend and move it to the backend. Specifiers now need to manually add the hide tools they want in their node/edge palette. New default implementations are available in DefaultToolsFactory to ease the migration.
#3304 [core] The ISemanticRepresentation interface has been removed. Its single method, getTargetObjectId, has been moved up into the main IRepresentation interface. For representations which were not ISemanticRepresentation before, their target object is the IEditingContext itself if nothing more relevant is available. Accordingly, IObjectSearchService and IIdentityService now handle actual IEditingContext instances as objects.
#3425 [diagram] In our GraphQL schema, DiagramDescription must now declare an ArrangeLayoutDirection.
#2655 [diagram] Add optional calculateCustomNodeEdgeHandlePosition method to INodeLayoutHandler.

The interface IEditingContextEPackageService should be deleted since we now have access to editing context preprocessors which can be used to contribute packages to editing context and even more.
Remove the image for resources from sirius-components-compatibility and org.eclipse.sirius.components.compatibility.services.ImageConstants.

Breaking changes

#3010 [form] The reference widget has been updated. On backend side, clickHandler has been removed from ReferenceValue. itemClickHandlerProvider has been removed from ReferenceWidgetDescription. EventHandler & DataFetcher on widget reference item click action have also been deleted. The reference widget graphql schema and the frontend have been updated accordingly.
#2822 [diagram] The GraphQL type Edge must now implement labelEditable boolean field.
#2783 [diagram] Remove the package sirius-components-diagrams containing the Sprotty based implementation of our diagrams
#2783 [diagram] Rename the package sirius-components-diagrams-reactflow to sirius-components-diagrams since we only have one implementation now
#2783 [diagram] Remove the modules sirius-components-diagrams-layout-api and sirius-components-diagrams-layout in favor of the frontend based layout API. As a result, all the APIs relying on this code have been deleted too such as the dead code used to export diagrams on the server or the API for parametric SVGs which was replaced in Reactflow based diagrams.
#3020 [sirius-web] Remove the component Views and its dependencies in favor of a more straightforward API.
#2823 [diagram] Some changes have been made for node layout, there may be an impact on the custom node.
- getNodeOrMinWidth and getNodeOrMinHeight have been renamed getDefaultOrMinWidth and getDefaultOrMinHeight.
- computePreviousSize no longer returns {0,0} when it’s a new node but its default size.
#2606 [diagram] Add the attributes topGap and bottomGap to graphql ListLayoutStrategy.
#3042 [core] IObjectService have been divided in smaller API IContentService, IObjectSearchService, IIdentityService and ILabelService. If you used the default implementation of IObjectService you can still use it to retrieve the default implementation of the new services. Yet we are recommending using each individual services since this aggregated one may be deprecated in the future. If you want to add your own custom behavior, please use the new services, see the related ADR for more details.
#3066 [core] IObjectSearchService, IIdentityService, ILabelService now can also find/resolve representations. This changes a core assumption from before where an element known to those services (i.e. an element for which IIdentityService.getId returned a non-null value) was a "semantic element" and thus could not be a representation.
#3021 [sirius-web] Remove the interfaces IRepresentationDescriptionRegistry and IRepresentationDescriptionRegistryConfigurer to replace them with IEditingContextRepresentationDescriptionProvider which provides the same feature but also gives access to the editing context for conditional registration of representation descriptions. This new interface will move in the near future from sirius-components-core to sirius-web-application. It’s current location is only there to simplify the transition to the new Sirius Web architecture.
#3021 [sirius-web] Make the ISuggestedRootObjectTypesProvider optional in sirius-components-emf in order to be able to reuse this maven module without the Sirius Desktop compatibility one.
#3019 [emf] Remove the dependency from sirius-components-emf to the validation representation. Reusing the EMF compatibility layer will not add any dependency to specific representations. The EMF validation support will now be provided by sirius-web-services.
#3156 [core] In our GraphQL schema, Viewer is now a type instead of an interface. Having Viewer as a type did not bring any additional value and it created some overhead by having to create and keep updated an additional type without any benefit.
[sirius-web] The field ChangeKind.PROJECT_RENAMING has been deleted since it does not make any sense in Sirius Components.
#2713 [diagram] Add the attribute growableNodeIds to graphql ListLayoutStrategy.
#3019 [core] Add CoreImageConstants.DEFAULT_SVG to retrieve the default svg image from sirius-components-core instead of the now deleted ImageConstants.DEFAULT_SVG from sirius-components-compatibility
#3019 [core] Move the WidgetIdProvider from sirius-components-compatibility to sirius-components-forms to remove unnecessary dependencies to the Sirius Desktop compatibility layer.
#3019 [core] Move the EMF based default description of the details view from sirius-components-compatibility-emf to sirius-components-emf-forms since there are no dependency between the default description of the details view and the Sirius Desktop compatibility layer.
#3096 [tree] TreeConfiguration has a new parameter List<String> activeFilterIds.
#3019 [form] Allow consumers of Sirius Components to reuse the reference widget without the form description editor or the view DSL.
#3246 [view] Remove representation specific code from ViewRepresentationDescriptionSearchService
#3250 [form] Change the base package of the reference widget from org.eclipse.sirius.components.widgets.reference to org.eclipse.sirius.components.widgets.reference.view
#3303 [core] The identifiers for all transient representations have changed. They are now more uniform and more importantly clearly distinct from persisted representations (which all use plain UUIDs):
- Explorer: explorer://?expandedIds=[…]&activeFilterIds=[…]
- Details: details://?objectIds=[…]
- Validation: validation://
- RelatedElements: relatedElements://?objectIds=[…]
- Representations: representations://?objectIds=[…]
- Selection: selection://

#2675 [view] IViewDiagramElementFinder has been updated with new methods. All implementations of this interface must implement these new methods:
- List<NodeDescription> getNodeDescriptions(); to retrieve all NodeDescriptions created by providers.
- List<EdgeDescription> getEdgeDescriptions(); to retrieve all EdgeDescriptions created by providers.
#2658 [sirius-web] Add dedicated colors for navigation bar in the Sirius Web theme. The theme provided by the user must now provide navigation bar colors:

...
navigationBar: {
  border: 'yellow',
  background: 'blue',
},
...

#2669 [sirius-web] Add dedicated colors for selected elements in the Sirius Web theme. The theme provided by the user must now provide selected elements colors:

...
selected: 'gray',
...

#2672 [sirius-web] Add dedicated colors for toast messages in Sirius Web theme. The theme provided by the user must now provide toast messages colors:

...
success: {
  main: '#43A047',
  dark: '#327836',
  light: '#4EBA54',
},
warning: {
  main: '#FF9800',
  dark: '#D98200',
  light: '#FFB800',
},
info: {
  main: '#2196F3',
  dark: '#1D7DCC',
  light: '#24A7FF',
},
...

#2804 [sirius-web] Add the ability to declare custom nodes while using the sirius-web-application frontend package. A new optional component named DiagramRepresentationConfiguration has been introduced. If you want to add some custom nodes, this new component must be declared under SiriusWebApplication:

const nodeTypeRegistry: NodeTypeRegistry = {
  ...
};
<SiriusWebApplication httpOrigin={httpOrigin} wsOrigin={wsOrigin}>
  <DiagramRepresentationConfiguration nodeTypeRegistry={nodeTypeRegistry} />
</SiriusWebApplication>

#2790 [diagram] All handles used to resize a node have been updated to be wider, you can update your custom nodes in the same way it’s done in the EllipseNode example.
#2932 The line used to resize a node have been updated to be wider, you can update your custom nodes in the same way it’s done in the EllipseNode example.
#2872 [diagram] The GraphQL type DiagramDescription has a new field childNodeDescriptionIds, returning a list of Ids. The GraphQL type NodeDescription has a new field childNodeDescriptionIds, returning a list of Ids and replacing the field childNodeDescriptions which has been deleted. The GraphQL type NodeDescription has a new field borderNodeDescriptionIds, returning a list of Ids and replacing the field borderNodeDescriptions which has been deleted.
#2872 [diagram] Change the signature of the node converters in order to leverage the diagram description to resolve the reuse descriptions. Additional changes to this interface will probably occur in the near future in order to support more complex use cases.
#2889 [emf] Remove the default implementation of the editing context from the sirius-components-emf module. The default implementation of the editing context for Sirius Web, which had Sirius Web specific code already, will be owned by sirius-web-services. This default implementation will now also contain all the view models properly loaded which should be considered during the lifecycle of the editing context.
#2796 [sirius-web] All Flow related configurations have been moved to sirius-components-flow-starter module.
#2883 [diagram] Add the attribute resizedByUser to reactflow nodes and graphql nodes.
#2926 [sirius-web] A new IEditingContextProcessor has been introduced. It allows to execute operations before/after the load of an IEditingContext in EditingContextSearchService.
#2901 [diagram] Added nodeDescription prop to ConnectionTargetHandle component.

#2644 [diagram] Highlight nodes on hover in React Flow diagrams
#2766 [tree] Tree representations (including the explorer) now support dragging any kind of element (not just semantic elements). It is the responsibility of the drop targets (e.g. a diagram) to validate the dropped element(s) type and ignore the one it does not support.
#2772 [diagram] Improve the Palette performance.

#2872 [diagram] Reduce the time needed to retrieve a diagram description, thus leading to reduce the duration of diagrams opening.
#2889 [emf] Add the IEMFEditingContext interface in order to let any editing context be an EMF aware one. After this change, we will be able to delete the EditingContext class from sirius-components-emf and add new interfaces to describe the various capabilities of an editing context. Among those capabilities, we should find the list of view models to consider during the lifecycle of the editing context.
#2889 [view] Load view models only once during the lifecycle of the editing context. This change makes the editing context the single source of truth for the state of the view models.

Breaking changes

#2386 [form] Reference widget structure has changed, referenceOptions has been removed to be lazily loaded.
#2335 [form] The general mutation editReference has been removed from the reference widget. This mutation has been replaced by finer grain mutations:
- clearReference mutation: to reset the content references (set the value to null for mono-valued references and to an empty list for multi-valued ones).
- addReferenceValues mutation: to several reference values to a reference (only used with multi-valued references)
- setReferenceValue mutation: to set the value of mono-valued references
- removeReferenceValue mutation: to remove a given value from a reference (in case of mono-valued references, this mutation is equivalent to clearReference)
- createElementInReference mutation: to create a new element (used in the context of a reference widget)
- moveReferenceValue mutation: to reorder the list of values in multi-valued references

UI is unchanged except that we removed the transactional behavior of the TransferModal component which is now performing operations live. This means that changes are no longer done when the modal is close (using the Apply button) but as soon as the user interacts with elements (adding or removing values, changing order).

#2269 [core] The GraphQL field EditingContext#domains has been modified. A new parameter rootDomainsOnly: Boolean has been added, allowing to remove domains not compatible with root objects. For example, Diagram & Form domains are not root domains because DiagramDescription and FormDescription are not root objects valid candidates.
#1712 [diagram] The GraphQL type Node must now implement isLabelEditable boolean field.
#2456 [sirius-web] The GraphQL field CreateChildSuccessPayload now expects to have a list of messages.
#1982 [diagram] Change the diagram structure. The Node’s 'label' attribute has been renamed into 'insideLabel' and its type changed from Label to InsideLabel (which is currently identical to Label except for the name).
#2388 [core] The IObjectService.getImagePath API changed and now must return a list containing all the image paths to compose/overlay. Due to this data structure modification, all existing diagrams can no longer be opened.
#2460 [form] The reference widget no longer declares a createElementHandlerProvider, this feature is delegated to the new service IReferenceWidgetCreateElementHandler.
#2453 [diagram] The GraphQL fields DeleteFromDiagramSuccessPayload, EditLabelSuccessPayload and DropOnDiagramSuccessPayload now expects to have a list of messages.
#2514 [diagram] Move and rename the RectangleNodeStyle withHeader attribute to InsideLabel isHeader. It requires to add a isHeaderProvider to the LabelDescription of Node. Replace only for the programmatic API the LabelDescription type in NodeDescription by InsideLabelDescription and add the inside label location. Update the graphql API accordingly.
#2444 [form] ViewFormDescriptionConverterSwitch now extends FormSwitch<Optional<AbstractControlDescription>>
#2516 [diagram] Add to the diagram core API the possibility to display the header separator when the inside label is a header. It requires to add a displayHeaderSeparatorProvider to the InsideLabelDescription. For the compatibility layer, the separator will always be displayed if the label is inside a node displaying its children has a list. Add the attribute displayHeaderSeparator to the graphql API.
#2535 [view] Add the possibility for the header separator to be displayed or hidden in the View DSL.

Compartment with header without separator
#2255 [diagram] The properties widthComputationExpression and heightComputationExpression have been removed from NodeStyleDescription. From now on, use the defaultWidthExpression and defaultHeightExpression properties from NodeDescription.
#2537 [sirius-web] sirius-web frontend package has been split in two: sirius-web and sirius-web-application. The package sirius-web now depends on sirius-web-application. A new component SiriusWebApplication has been added. Developers who want to create a sirius-web frontend should use this component as their root component. The API of this component will change over time in order to provide additional capabilities. API breaks should be expected.

Another component, named Views has also been added. This component will allow developers to customize some parts of the Sirius Web views. It will currently provide the ability to customize the application icon and application menu. The API of this component will also change over time so API breaks should be expected in the upcoming releases.

This new package and those new components are the first part of our work to make Sirius Web more reusable.
#2615 [diagram] useDropNode().dropFeedbackStyleProvider has been removed. Use useDropNodeStyle(node.id) instead to get the feedback of the drop feedback.
#2671 [diagram] Switch to Reactflow by default. To open a diagram with Sprotty, suffixes the diagram name with __SPROTTY

Dependency update

Remove the dependency to elk.js
Switch to EMFJson 2.3.5

New Features

#2214 [diagram] Add support for borders nodes with React Flow.
#2264 [diagram] Add feedback for edge reconnection with React Flow.
#288 [diagram] Add support for drag and drop of nodes inside diagrams. The behavior is controlled by the new Drop Node tools defined on the target element, which can be either a node or the diagram itself (when dropping on the diagram’s background).
#1982 [diagram] Make the node label non required
#2482 [diagram] Add the support for TOP_CENTER inside label location. Other inside label locations will be supported later.
#2256 [diagram] Add the possibility to contribute custom shape. See the EllipseNode example and the documentation for more details. Note that the custom shape replaces the parametric SVG, which is deprecated and will be removed in a future version.

Improvements

#2386 [form] Reference widget candidates are now lazily loaded when necessary.
#2424 [view] Align the format of description id used in Form generated from View with the one used in diagram. As a result, the identifier of a form description created from a view model will not be an UUID anymore but instead an URL based identifier
#2335 [form] Change the capabilities of the reference widget to open it to more customization. In order to provide a first version of those capabilities, some additional coupling has been created between the reference widget and its use in Sirius Web which may prevent its use in other applications. This coupling will be removed in the near future as a consequence, the dependencies of this code will change and some APIs of the reference widget will be broken in the near future.
#2380 [diagram] Add typing to reactflow hooks
#2430 [diagram] Improve fit to screen feature to zoom on selected nodes
#2288 [diagram] Make IconLabel a react flow node
#2289 [diagram] Use the layout strategy to layout icon label nodes
#2410 [diagram] Do a fit to screen on a diagram opening
#2268 [diagram] Create child nodes where the user has clicked.
#2475 [diagram] Prevent nodes to move each diagram refresh event. Only the size is still updated.
#2485 [view] Change the default size of View Node Description from 1x1 to 150x70.
#2493 [diagram] Disable double click to zoom in with React Flow.
#2388 [core] Added support for image overlay in icons. All icons can now be composed of multiple images, which will be overlayed on top of each other. An example of use has been added on the domain entity items.
#2483 [diagram] Take the header into account in the React Flow layout.
#2504 [diagram] Create nodes at the cursor position when using create instance or drop tools.
#2444 [form] It is now possible to ignore widgets with invalid descriptions
#2528 [core] Add support for multiple IObjectService. It is now possible to contribute specific services to interact with domain objects, through IObjectServiceDelegate. The new implementation of IObjectService, named ComposedObjectService, tries first to delegate to the appropriate IObjectServiceDelegate and then fallback to a default behavior from IDefaultObjectService if needed.
#2530 [core] Add support for multiple IEditService. It is now possible to contribute specific services to edit domain objects, through IEditServiceDelegate. The new implementation of IEditService, named ComposedEditService, tries first to delegate to the appropriate IEditServiceDelegate and then fallback to a default behavior from IDefaultEditService if needed.
#2555 [diagram] Add distinct edge creation handles (only visible when a node is selected)
#2559 [diagram] Allow to target the whole node when creating or reconnecting an edge
#2235 [diagram] Reduce the amount of code in DiagramRenderer

Breaking changes

#2250 [core] Remove all references to notistack from sirius-components-core. As a result, the link between notistack and Sirius Components needs to be updated in applications using Sirius Components. See the Sirius Web ToastProvider and ToastContextInitializer to see how to give Sirius Components the relevant function(s) from notistack. Without the dependency to notistack in sirius-components-core, it will be easier to leverage native VS Code popup to display our errors.
#2259 [tree] [sirius-web] Move the NewDocumentModal and the UploadDocumentModal from sirius-components-tree to sirius-web. We introduced the TreeToolBarContribution components to contribute actions to the TreeToolBar such as the NewDocumentModal and the UploadDocumentModal. As a result, the NewDocumentModal and the UploadDocumentModal will not be available in applications.
#2270 [core] [sirius-web] Move DeleteProjectModal, NewObjectModal, NewRepresentationModal, NewRootObjectModal and RenameProjectModal from sirius-components to sirius-web`. As a result, they will not be available in the Sirius Components packages anymore, and thus, applications that need such modals will need to implement them.
#2274 [core] Remove the Form and FormContainer components. They will not be provided by the sirius-components package anymore.
#2276 [core] [sirius-web] Move the ErrorBoundary HOC into sirius-web. It is not available for applications anymore, and thus, applications that need a global error handling strategy will need to implement it by themselves.
#2279 [core] Remove the package sirius-components. All of its remaining content was only relevant inside of Sirius Web and it has thus been migrated to this location
[releng] Stop minifying the code of Sirius Components packages. As a result the development of applications consuming Sirius Components packages will be easier and it will be the responsibility of the application to minify everything (which they should already be doing).
#2296 [diagram] sirius-components-diagrams-reactflow now depends on html-to-image node package.
#2236 [form] The introduction of ForDescription and IfDescription elements to the Forms DSL introduced breaking changes in the metamodel. Existing FormDescription documents will need to be modified to load correctly, and any custom widget’s metamodel will need to be regenerated using the new form.ecore version as reference. See [ADR-107] Add support for dynamic and conditional widgets in Forms for the details of the changes. Also, all widget descriptions now have a Function<VariableManager, String> targetObjectIdProvider, needed to compute the widget instance’s id. The new targetObjectIdProvider is required to be non-null, so any code which programmatically builds core Form Descriptions (not View-based ones), needs to pass a non-null provider. A suitable implementation is to get the id of the self object using IObjectService.getId().
#2118 [form] The introduction of the new modal for create objects with the reference widget, apply changes for two queries rootObjectCreationDescriptions and childCreationDescriptions. It’s now possible to provide referenceKind to only get the ChildCreationDescription matching this reference.
#2253 [diagram] The introduction of ToolSection in palette, change the DiagramDescription structure by adding a new level Palette instead of [ToolSection]. Note that palette will be removed in short-term from the DiagramDescription.
#2329 [form] Split of sirius-components-widget-reference to extract EMF-related code into a new module sirius-components-collaborative-widget-reference.
#2252 [diagram] The support for React Flow based diagrams now require a DiagramPaletteToolContext in order to contribute custom palette tool.
#2343 [sirius-web] Add iconURL field on ChildCreationDescription type.
#2371 [view] Colors are now required everywhere. We will not hardcoded decisions in our application, instead all the references to a color should be configured. In the near future, the GraphQL schema and the frontend of sirius-components-forms will thus be updated to reflect this new change.
#2371 [sirius-web] Default colors are now loaded from a default model located in sirius-components-view/src/main/resources/studioColorPalettes.json. They are loaded in every studio project but hidden in the explorer. They are also made readonly in the details view. Applications derived from Sirius Web may have to ensure that references to default colors are properly resolved when loading a view model.
#2191 [view] The Color property on ImageNodeStyle has been removed.
#2388 [tree] treeItem is no longer composed of a single string for the imageURL, but of a list of strings to take into account composite images. The IObjectService.getImagePath API changed and now must return a list containing all the image paths.

#2185 [diagram] Add support for drop tool from the explorer with React Flow.
#2117 [form] Add a modal to select new values for multi-valued references
#2118 [form] Add a modal to create new objects on a widget reference
#2253 [diagram] Add the possibility of organizing palette tools into sections
#2236 [form] It is now possible to use For and If constructs inside the definition of Form (currently only inside Groups and Flexbox containers). Both constructs are commonly combined together, with e.g. For iterating on the different features of the current semantic element and several If inside the loop to decide which concrete widget(s) to instantiate depending on the feature’s type. They can however also be used independently (e.g. a single If outside of a For to make the presence of a widget conditional) and combined in arbitrary ways (e.g. nested loops or conditionals). Note that this first version has a known limitation: FormDescriptions which use For or If elements can not be reliably edited using the Form Description Editor. This will be fixed in the next version.
#2254 [diagram] Add the possibility to specify precondition on diagram tools
#2252 [diagram] It’s now possible to contribute custom frontend-defined tools in a React Flow diagram palette. To illustrate this new feature, we contribute a new tool on the Papaya Diagram, it’s available only on OperationalActivity and it simply opens a dialog with the node label content.

#2036 [form] Add the concept of pageAction in form.
#2015 [form] Add to the payload the possibility to return a list of messages, these messages will be displayed on the UI.

There is an example of the IFeedbackMessageService interface usage in DomainAttributeServices. Note that in the end, the message list will be the only way to return info in payload, the single message will be removed.
#2010 [diagram] Add a palette on node with the alternate diagram rendering.
#1988 All Form widgets can now define (if relevant) a dynamically computed "help text". Widgets which define such a help text have a new "?" icon next to their labels; the actual help text is accessible as a tooltip on this icon. For View-based widgets, this materializes as an AQL helpExpression. The help text can include multiple lines (separated by \n), but no text formatting.
#2048 [diagram] Add a basic support for the resize. It is possible to reduce the size of a node less than the space needed to display all children.

#2123 [tree] Add support for non-selectable tree items
#2126 [tree] Add support for multiple Explorer-like tree definitions. These should be registered globally like other representations using a IRepresentationDescriptionRegistryConfigurer. Their TreeDescription.getCanCreatePredicate() will be invoked with a treeId variable (a string) to test if it handles a given tree subscription requested by the front. For example the main Explorer frontend component subscribes to the treeEvent subscription with a treeId of 'explorer://', and the backend ExplorerDescriptionProvider’s tests for `treeId.startsWith("explorer://") to indicate it is the one to use to handle this subscription.
#2096 [form] Add style for the reference widget. Use the same style properties as the list widget.
#2175 [tree] Change tree behavior to reveal the current value(s) in the model browser.

#1616 [core] Use Java records for all our payloads
#1848 [project] Remove the frontend dependency to uuid in favor of crypto.randomUUID
#1907 [view] The management of colors is changing, it is not possible anymore to use color directly represented by a string in the styleDescription. All the colors are now defined in a new palette object ColorPalette with the properties name and value. A view can define as many ColorPalette as desired. In the styleDescription, the definition of a color are now a select list of all the colors contained in the ColorPalette of the view
#1970 [diagram] Simplify the lifecycle of the diagram creation and refresh. For that, the DiagramCreationService will have less responsibilities. Starting now, it will stop persisting the diagram after its creation. It will start by improving a bit performances since diagrams were persisted twice in some use cases.

#2018 [formdescriptioneditors] Fixed form editor selection to display the page containing the first element selected.

New Features

#1883 [sirius-web] Add the possibility to programmatically set some metadata such as specifics natures to a project. These natures can be used later to enable or not some capabilities on a project. This work will start by adding the ability to filter the project’s domains. A large set of features will have to be updated in order to stop considering the list of metamodels available in an editing context as a certainty.
#1946 Enabled child extenders in the View DSL implementation. This allows downstream projects and applications to provide their own sub-types of the DSL types (e.g. new WidgetDescriptions). In addition to registering the extension metamodel itself, users must provide a ChildExtenderProvider bean for their extensions to be properly integrated.
#1918 [tree] Its is now possible to filter tree items in trees. After selected a tree item, hit Ctrl+f (or Cmd+f on macOS) to enable the filter bar.

All visible tree items containing the value typed in the filter bar will be highlighted. The filter button inside the filter bar allows to filter (hide) all visible tree items not containing the value typed in the filter bar.
#1914 [form] It is now possible for applications to provide their own custom widgets without forking Sirius Components. See the documentation for more details.
#1830 [layout] This feature is experimental and can be activated on a diagram by adding "__EXPERIMENTAL" to its name. The new algorithm does the minimum possible to place node without overlap.
|#1985 [sirius-web] It is now possible to use in-memory View-based representations by registering them in the new InMemoryViewRegistry. These representations can be created programmatically or loaded from .view EMF models on startup, and do not need to be stored as documents inside a project in the database.
#1921 [view] Added a project sirius-components-view-builder.

Introducing providers interfaces to help creating view programmatically.

Introducing a generator of builders aimed to help creating view programmatically, the generation makes use of emf-merge and modifications to these builders can be annotated to live during future regeneration.
#1912 [core] Add the possibility to send feedback messages to the frontend after an action.
#1989 [diagram] Contribute a new way to render diagrams to evaluate an alternate layouting strategy

#1831 [layout] Improve the data structure of the layout algorithm
#1975 [emf] The getContents method from the ObjectService will use the eObject’s IEditingDomainItemProvider if it exists.
#1916 [sirius-web] We supply an example of how to provide your own Details view definition for specific elements using a View-based FormDescription. See org.eclipse.sirius.web.sample.configuration.DomainPropertiesConfigurer and org.eclipse.sirius.web.sample.services.DomainAttributeServices for a working example that can be easily adapted.
#2003 [view] Make reconnection tool more robust for applications which use a custom IViewRepresentationDescriptionSearchService.

v2023.4.0

Architectural decision records

[ADR-094] Provide better control on contextual palette’s content
[ADR-095] Use richer data types in the View DSL definition
[ADR-096] Distinguish the containment kind of view creation requests
[ADR-097] Separate the layout data structures from the diagram data structures

Breaking changes

1643 [core] Removed our dependencies to Spring Security
#1592 [view] In View-based diagram definition, all tools applicable on a given element are now configured inside the new Palette element directly inside the element (diagram, node or edge) description.
#1761 [core] Remove sirius-web-graphql-schema since it was not really used anymore
#1825 [diagram] Distinguish the containment kind of view creation requests
#1840 [diagram] The GraphQL field Diagram#autoLayout has been removed. We only use DiagramDescription#autoLayout to retrieve the autolayout state of a diagram.
#1638 [view] The lifecycle of the representation descriptions from the view DSL is now aligned with the lifecycle of the metamodels computed from the Domain DSL.

As such, the representation descriptions available for an EditingContext are now computed and transformed when the EditingContext is loaded. It will thus improve the performances of the lookup for representation descriptions since they will be referenced directly by the EditingContext. This does not come with any changes to the interface IEditingContext. Alternate implementations of IEditingContext do not have to keep the representation descriptions in their implementation of IEditingContext.

By loading representation descriptions from the View DSL when the editing context is being loaded, we are making the editing context the sole source of truth of the representation descriptions available.

As a result, any datafetcher requiring a representation description will now have to use the editing context event processor registry to find the requested representation description. We previously had some datafetcher which were using the IRepresentationDescriptionSearchService` with null as a value for the editing context. Such calls will not work anymore since null will not be an acceptable value anymore by our implementation of this interface.
[diagram] Changed the type of Node#descriptionId and Edge#descriptionId from UUID to String
[view] Changed the values of {Diagram|Node|Edge}descriptionId computed by the view converter:
- siriusComponents://diagramDescription?sourceKind=view&sourceId=UUID_OF_DOCUMENT&sourceElementId=UUID_OF_SOURCE_ELEMENT
- siriusComponents://nodeDescription?sourceKind=view&sourceId=UUID_OF_DOCUMENT&sourceElementId=UUID_OF_SOURCE_ELEMENT
- siriusComponents://edgeDescription?sourceKind=view&sourceId=UUID_OF_DOCUMENT&sourceElementId=UUID_OF_SOURCE_ELEMENT

#840 [view] Add the ability to create multiple nested views for unsynchronized node descriptions. For that, specifiers will be able to use properly the variable name property of the create view model operation. The result returned and captured in this variable name will not be the real node since it will be rendered later but it is a placeholder which contains some properties of the real node such as its id which can be used to create the nested views.
#1838 [diagram] Collapsing and expanding a node with unsynchronized child nodes will now properly restore the child nodes
#1775 [core] Handle representation/document/project label length in UI (by adding ellipsis) and in sirius-web SQL schema (up to 1024 characters)

New Features

#1695 [view] Add a precondition expression to the node description
#1527 [diagram] Add the new layout data structure which will be used by the new version of our layout algorithm. This new data structure will be used by the frontend if the name of a diagram ends with __EXPERIMENTAL. This will allow us to easily compare the current layout algorithm and the new one.
#1846 [diagram] A debug mode has been added for diagrams. This debug mode can be activated by setting the configuration property sirius.components.diagram.debug to true. Once activated, this debug mode will display additional information on diagram elements to help debug what has been computed by the backend.
#1902 [sirius-web] Add new data fetchers to sirius-web allowing to execute AQL requests

Improvements

#593 [domain] Add support for referencing and extending other custom domains

#1632 [core] Start documenting the variables available for each operation in our various representations
1565 [view] The definition of the View DSL now uses richer data types for most attributes. This has no visible effect at the moment, but will allow better documentation, validation and configuration later.
[studio] Add a project template for the Papaya domains and view
#1667 [diagram] Make the contextual palette self contained
#1858 [project] Improve project template cards layout
#1879 [core] Add an annotation @Builder to identify builders and simplify some use cases involving the builder pattern. It is now possible to use builders in records and it is a first step toward the deprecation of the @Immutable annotation in favor of more records.
[diagram] Added a common interface IDiagramElement that is implemented by Node and Edge
#1904 [project] Add templates to track our work on shapes and scopes in doc/iterations/YYYY-MM/{scopes/scope.adoc|shapes/shape.adoc}. At the end of every iteration, we will work on the shape of the new iterations and validate them by merging a first version.

During the iteration, while developers will progress on their work, they will update the scope. We will not create a new commit for each minor change in the scope, instead the scope will evolve while a pull request is updated. The progress on a task could thus be shared with a draft pull request with the rest of the team.

[ADR-092] Add support for diagram nodes labels' auto-wrap
[ADR-093] Improve node size control

Breaking changes

[core] Records are now used as the implementations of IInput
#1574 [diagram] In diagram.graphqls, SingleClickOnDiagramElementTool member’s targetDescriptions is now of new type DiagramElementDescription instead of NodeDescription.
#1614 [graphql] Add a SuccessPayload to replace most basic payloads
#1615 [diagram] DiagramDescription.getTools() has been removed. It was not actually used, as tools have long been found in DiagramDescription.getToolSections() instead.
#1588 [project] Moved the action "New Model" and "Upload model" in a new tree toolbar
#1614 [graphql] Add a SuccessPayload to replace most basic payloads, add GQLWidgetOperationPayload to replace most basic Operation

Dependency update

#1377 [core] Switch to Java 17
[backend] Switch to EMFJson 2.3.4
#1496 [layout] Switch to ELK 0.8.1

Bug fixes

#1374 [layout] The border node position is now updated when its parents bounds has changed (e.g. when a node increases its size because of a child creation).
#1580 [diagram] Border nodes do not return to their previous position after they have been moved manually.
#1522 [diagram] Rectangle nodes with a header can now be resized.
#1529 [diagram] Improve the layout of newly created edges with a begin or end label
#1607 [tree] Make sure that a recently closed representation can be opened again
#1686 [diagram] Fix SVG export of the wrapped labels
#1692 [core] JPEG images where previously ignored if using a .jpg extension instead of .jpeg. They are now correctly supported
#1741 [diagram] Border node placement specified with ELK configuration not taken into account anymore
#1720 [diagram] Fix the position where newly created views appear on a diagram after a drop

New Features

#1567 [project] Add support for project templates. Project templates are defined in the backend using the IProjectTemplateProvider (template metadata) and IProjectTemplateInitializer (project contents) interfaces.
#1456 [diagram] Add the ability to filter the edge created using some graphical variables
#1456 [view] Add a precondition expression to the edge description
#1463 [diagram] Add support for the direct edit of the start and end labels of an edge. Two new tools can be defined on an edge in order to specify how the begin and end labels can be edited.

For each of those tools, Edit Begin Label and Edit End Label in the previous screenshot, the specifier can also enter an Initial Direct Edit Label Expression which will be used to compute the initial value of the label when the edition will be triggered. This is mostly used to support the edition of computed labels. The variables semanticEdgeSource and semanticEdgeTarget are now available both in the Initial Direct Edit Label Expression and while evaluating the behavior of the tools themselves.

In order to edit a begin or end label of an edge, it is necessary to double click on said label. Using F2` will trigger the edition of the center label of the edge.
#1496 [layout] Add the support for free form compartment.
#1624 [diagram] Add support for expand/collapse of nodes. A node can be collapsed or expanded if its view description is collapsible or if its sirius desktop description is a region (Horizontal or Vertical stack).
#1624 [diagram] The collapsingState of a node is now available as a variable to compute its style. As a result, it is possible to create a conditional style which will use the collapsing state quite easily. Using the view DSL, one can use the expression aql:collapsingState.toString() = 'COLLAPSED' as a condition to create a style which will be used when the node is collapsed.
#1584 [diagram] Studio makers can indicate whether or not a node type can be resized by the end-user or not. Nodes which can not be resized (or have not been resized yet) have their actual size computed from the NodeDescription’s sizeProvider in a uniform way for all node types. Nodes which can and have been resized keep their user-chosen size across both incremental and full layout (as long as the requested size is compatible with other constraints).
#1583 [diagram] Add support for diagram nodes labels' auto-wrap
#1588 [tree] Add support for enabling/disabling the synchronization between the explorer and the current selection. When it is enabled, if the current selection is not visible in the explorer, it will be revealed by expanding the relevant tree items. On the other hand, when it is disabled, the selection will be visible in the explorer but no tree items will be automatically expanded.

Improvements

#1559 [view] It is now possible to specify the (computed) width and height separately for a Node Style (instead of a single size before, which always resulted in square shapes).
#1560 Remove unused EditingContextCompletionProposalsDataFetcher
#1426 [view] Add missing data type on initialDirectEditLabelExpression
#1456 [diagram] Add new methods to the diagram rendering cache to compute the parent, ancestors, children and descendants of a given node identifier
#1574 [diagram] Single click tools can now be executed on Edges in addition to Nodes
#1569 [view] Only delegate semantic deletion to the element’s Delete Tool
#1562 [view] The default/canonical behaviors for diagram elements can now be invoked explicitly from AQL expressions. See org.eclipse.sirius.components.view.emf.CanonicalServices. This feature will be used only for internal for now. There will be breaking changes on this topic soon.
#1596 [diagram] Sirius Web now includes two example parametric SVG images named "Package" and "Class". They can be used as any custom image (e.g. in a View-based diagram), but their precise shape is partially computed on the backend, in this case to adjust the size of the label compartment to the actual label’s width.
#1563 [view] If a diagram description does not explicitly configure a delete/direct edit/element creation tool, the corresponding behavior is simply disabled. By default, new nodes, edges and tools are explicitly configured to invoke the default canonical behavior; it is just made explicit in the model and can now serve as a based or removed to disable the behavior.
#1558 [diagram] When a diagram is read-only, the following actions are now disabled: Arrange All, Reveal hidden and Reveal faded elements, and triggering direct edit or delete from the keyboard.

Improvements

#1482 [core] Allow CustomImageLoader to get images from packaged projects. To import images from local files on startup, set -Dorg.eclipse.sirius.web.customImages.pattern="file:///local/path/to/folder/with/files/". To import images from a folder inside a packaged JAR, use -Dorg.eclipse.sirius.web.customImages.pattern="classpath:path/in/jar/". The syntax supports Ant-style path patterns.
#1517 [core] Remove the error for strings which are not marked as non-externalized

New Features

#1453 [diagram] Add new arrow styles Circle, FillCircle and CrossedCircle
#1364 [form] Add support for a basic image widget
#1386 [project] Users can now upload their own images from a project’s new settings page (available in the project menu). These images can be displayed in forms using the new image widget, or in View-based diagrams using and ImageNodeStyleDescription and selecting the image in the list of available shapes.
#1457 [diagram] Make possible to provide an expression on the label edit tool in View DSL to initialize the direct edit label text field. We kept the current behavior for the compatibility layer but, in fine it will be possible to leverage the direct edit tool Input Label Expression to initialize the direct edit label text field.
#1346 [form] Add support for a Rich Text edition widget. The widget behaves in a similar way to the existing Textfield and Textarea widgets, except that the text value should be valid Markdown, and can be edited in a WYSIWYG way by the end user.
#1428 [layout] Add support for List layout compartment. We rely on the layout strategy engine handler switch and the layout engine handler switch to dispatch to the correct behavior depending on how children should be laid out and the type of the node. This kind of architecture has already been implemented for model operation for the View DSL. Nothing has changed if nodes have to be laid out freely.
#1439 [form] Add support for toolbar actions in Form/FormDescriptionEditor
#1437 [form] Add support for styles preview in FormDescriptionEditor `- #1494 [form] Add width and height attributes to BarChart

Breaking changes

#1300 [core] Rename SiriusWebJSONResourceFactoryImpl to JSONResourceFactoryImpl
#1301 [core] Add support for having intermodel references. Now, the URI of resources added in a ResourceSet must have a scheme. Otherwise, you will encounter exceptions.
#1064 [core] Remove the URL utility file and ask for the httpOrigin instead. Consumers of Sirius Components which rely on the behavior of the URL utility file should instead maintain their own utility file since it is dependent on our build technology and development process.

Dependency update

[backend] Switch to EMFJson 2.3.2-SNAPSHOT. It contains better management of proxy resolution in case of intermodel references

#1411 [vscode-extension] Fix a 404 error on the VSCode extension page when loading the image
#1454 [vscode-extension] Fix a misprint in VSCode Extension README

Improvements

#1339 [layout] Add concept of layout strategy. The purpose of layout strategy is to split the style of a node from the way a node lays out its children.
#1385 [releng] Migrate the backend and frontend code of Sirius Web to Sirius Component. The purpose of this migration is to facilitate the maintenance of these two projects (one pull request instead of two different).

#1397 [diagram] Add support for reused node descriptions
#780 [diagram] Add support for edge reconnection. Edge reconnection descriptions can be defined either inside a classical Sirius desktop VSM or, using the View DSL. While using the Sirius desktop VSM you can define a tool to do both target and source reconnection, you will need to define a tool to reconnect the source and another one to reconnect the target using the View DSL

v2022.9.0

[ADR-067] Add support for injecting platform services/beans into Java service classes used by studios
[ADR-068] Improve support for precondition expression from representation description

Breaking changes

#1311 [releng] Allow reusing sirius-components-emf without dependencies to the domain or view DSL. As a result, two new projects sirius-components-domain-emf and sirius-components-view-emf have been introduced in order to connect the EMF compatibility layer with the domain and view DSL. Consumers of sirius-components-emf may have to update their import. The behavior of the code has not been modified
#1311 [releng] Allow reusing sirius-component-emf without dependencies to Sirius Desktop. As a result, a new project sirius-components-compatibility-emf has been added in order to provide EMF support for the Sirius desktop compatibility layer. Consumers of sirius-components-emf may have to update their import. The behavior of the code has not been modified
#1237 [releng] Remove the two hardcoded dependencies to Spring MVC from Sirius Components. As such, reusing most components from Sirius Components without Spring MVC will be easier. The only projects with a dependency to Spring MVC are located in the web package
#1312 [graphql] Provide the datafetchers used by the representations. Starting with the validation representation, we will provide datafetchers directly in Sirius Components to simplify the integration of Sirius Components in various applications. The project sirius-components-graphql-utils has been merged into sirius-components-graphql-api since they had similar dependencies.
#1231 [charts] The components related to charts have been extracted to @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-charts
#1231 [form] The components related to forms have been extracted to @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-forms. The views and representations have adopted the suffix View and Representation respectively. As an example, the component FormWebSocketContainer is now named FormRepresentation
#1231 [formdescriptioneditors] The components related to formdescriptioneditors have been extracted to @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-formdescriptioneditors. The representation has been renamed FormDescriptionEditorRepresentation.
#1231 [core] Since the core parts of Sirius Components cannot possibly known the components of the representations installed in a project, the context RepresentationContext will not provide a default value anymore. In a similar fashion, the ServerContext from @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-core will now be required in order to let Sirius Components retrieve the URL of the backend.
#1231 [tree] The trees related components and the explorer have been extracted to @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-trees. The ExplorerWebSocketContainer has also been renamed ExplorerView to match the naming convention of the other views. The components migrated have also been fully converted to XState and MaterialUI
#1231 [workbench] The workbench was depending on some tree components in order to compute the list of TreeItemContextMenuContribution to use in the explorer. This dependency has been removed and as a result, users of the workbench component will have to rely on the TreeItemContextMenuContext to provide the contributions
#1231 [workbench] Move the workbench related code to @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-core. This move includes components such as Workbench, RepresentationContext, WorkbenchViewContribution for example
#1231 [diagram] Move the code of the diagram and the selection wizard in the packages @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-diagrams and @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components-selection
#1231 [core] Some code remain in the soon to be deprecated Sirius Component package @eclipse-sirius/sirius-components. Most of this code will either be moved to Sirius Web or be removed entirely (such as the old non MaterialUI widgets)
#1288 [core] The EditingContext#representationDescriptions field now takes an objectId: ID as argument instead of just the object’s kind: ID. This allows representation precondition expressions to be more precise as they know the actual candidate instance, not just its type.
#1281 [form] The LinkDescription now requires a displayProvider and a styleProvider. The displayProvider is used to display the text of the hyperLink. The GraphQL API has also been changed with two additional fields on the type Link: display and style (optional). The front-end use the display value instead of the label value to display the hyperlink text. The label value is displayed before the widget to be consistent with other properties sections.
#1320 [diagram] The selectedNode variable is now always defined in the context of drop handlers and single-click tools. Previously, if the target of the drop or single-click tool was the diagram itself (instead of a node), the variable was not defined at all. Now it is defined but null in these cases.
#1289 [core] The representationDescriptions GraphQL query now returns a new attribute named defaultName in addition to the label and id. For view-based representations and , the defaultName is computed from the RepresentationDescription’s `titleExpression.

Dependency update

[frontend] Update the format of the package-lock.json by moving to node 18.7.0 and npm 8.15.0. This will allow us to use the latest version of npm which comes with improvements for its workspace support. This will also help us move beyond the change in behavior of node 16.15.1 and npm 8.6
[frontend] Update the version of jest-transform-css used in order to fix the long standing issues of its incompatibility with the version of postcss` that we use. We will thus use postcss 8.4.14 and jest-transform-css 4.0.1 now
[frontend] Remove our dependency to ts-transform-graphql-tag since it is not maintained and its dependencies are outdated and since it is used to lower the dependency with graphql-tag which we will stop using soon
[frontend] Remove the peer dependency to graphql-tag. It will not be required for projects consuming Sirius Components now
[frontend] Remove the peer dependency to subscriptions-transport-ws. It is not required by Sirius Components and consumers of Sirius Components will be free to switch to graphql-ws instead of even to not rely on web socket at all to communicate with the backend. Sirius Components itself does not need to specify how the communication with the backend will be done
[frontend] Switch to @apollo/client 3.6.9, @material-ui/core 4.12.4, @material-ui/icons 4.11.3, graphql 16.5.0, prop-types 15.8.1, sprotty 0.12.2 and xstate 4.32.1. Various development dependencies have also been updated such as typescript, rollup, prettier etc
[backend] Switch to Spring Boot 2.7.2
[backend] Switch to the managed version of GraphQL Java, as of Spring Boot 2.7.2, we will thus use GraphQL Java 18.2

[ADR-66] Add a new "Related Elements" view

Breaking changes

#1141 [frontend] The PropertiesWebSocketContainer which was hard-coded to display the propertiesEvent subscription has been made more generic and renamed FormBasedView. It now takes an additional prop named subscriptionName so that it can be bound to other subscriptions (which must follow the same API/protocol and send Form payloads). To integrate the "Details" view inside a workbench, one must now use the new DetailsView component (which simply configures FormBasedView to listen to propertiesEvent as before).

Dependency update

The frontend now depends on @material-ui/lab to support the new tree widget (see ADR-065).

#1242 [view] Provide icons for View DSL Widgets and FormDescription
#1214 [form] The mandatory label attribute which was available in all concrete widget types is now explicitly part of the common supertype.
#1215 [form] Widgets can now optionally specify an iconURL. It is not used in the default UI for the details view or forms representations for now, but icons (if present) are visible in the toggle buttons bar for groups using the new displayMode = TOGGLEABLE_AREAS.
#1141 [workbench] It is now possible to add a "Related View" contribution to the workbench. It behaves like the "Details" view in that it reacts to the selection by displaying a Form, but is designed to display contextual information about the selected element (i.e. which elements it points to and which elements point to it for example). The actual definition of the application (e.g. Sirius Web), which must provide a single bean implementing the new IRelatedElementsDescriptionProvider interface.

Deprecation warning

Breaking changes

#1088 [core] Change the type of IRepresentationDescription#id from UUID to String. This will allow us, when we will receive an operation to perform with a given representation description identifier, to determine if this operation should be handled by the Sirius Desktop compatibility layer, the View support or by a programmatic API
#1138 [workbench] The APIs for the Panels and Site components have been modified to support closing/opening the panels. In particular, Panels now handles all three parts of the layout (the left and right sites and the main area) directly instead of using recursive two-sided panels. See ADR-54 for the details.
#1155 [workbench] WorkbenchViewContribution now require an icon prop
#1155 [core] The palette used by Sirius Components now require two additional colors for the navigation area. The type of the new palette is described in frontend/src/materialui.ts. Users of the fallback theme can upgrade without having to add those new colors since they are provided by default.
#966 [core] The source and target edge anchor are not considered as routing points anymore. Edges of old diagrams may have unexpected behavior since new edges will have two less routing points than existing edges in old diagrams. For further explanation see ADR-054.
#1180 [diagram] An implementation of IConnectorToolsProvider has to be made for the connector tool to work.

#1154 [diagram] Display the palette where the click has been made, not where the cursor is. With the edge animation it was possible for the palette to be displayed at a wrong position which was making possible to create a floating edge.
#1148 [diagram] Fix a lot of cases where removing an edge will change the layout of some other edges. This behavior will still happen when it will exist two edges between the two same elements and one of the edge is removed, the other edge will probably take the layout of the removed edge.
#1176 [diagram] Fix potential ConcurrentModificationException in ViewDiagramDescriptionConverter when manipulating diagrams. This bug was introduced by the #1152.
#1171 [workbench] Fix the overflow behavior of the side panels when they are resized horizontally

#966 [diagram] Add the support source and target edge position ratio on the frontend side. For further explanation see ADR-055.
#1179 [core] Move WorkbenchSelection and WorkbenchSelectionEntry to sirius-components-representations in order to let any representation use those classes. We may rename the Selection representation in the future in order to rename them to Selection and SelectionEntry to align the frontend and backend API
[releng] Detect the presence of classes without a public visibility or with a package or protected constructor in order to speed up the code reviews.
#1138 [workbench] The left and right panels can be closed by clicking on the current view’s icon or by resizing them to the minimum width (showing only the icons). When closed, clicking on any of the views' icon will re-open the panel to make the selected view visible.

[ADR-049] Improve the incremental layout for dropper elements

Deprecation warning

[core] The various DTOs related to the creation and renaming of both documents and representations will be removed from the project at some point. The only reason why we will keep them for the moment is that some of them are used to trigger some specific behavior in the EditingContextEventProcessor. The split of the representation metadata should help us remove those special use cases
[core] The method IRepresentationMetadataSearchService#findByRepresentation will be deleted in the future, it only exists as a transition from requesting the whole content of a representation every time to requesting only its metadata when it’s necessary
#779 [diagram] The properties DiagramDescription#toolSections should be removed in the near future since it has no real reason to exist now that the tools are computed on the fly. On top of that, ITool.handler will also be deleted at the same time since we no longer need to create the handlers of all the tools while the server is starting
[diagram] The GraphQL mutations deleteFromDiagram will stop being used soon by the delete from model and delete from diagram tools. They will instead be considered as regular tools and thus leverage the "invoke tool" GraphQL API

Breaking changes

#808 [core] Update the namespace of the projects from sirius-web-xxx to sirius-components-xxx. The projects sirius-web-api and sirius-web-core-api have been merged into sirius-components-core since there was no difference in scope between both projects and neither of them was strictly limited to an api. Since we have validated that most of our projects can be reused outside of a Spring environment (i.e. an environment where Spring Frameworks is in charge of the ApplicationContext), we have also removed the -spring- from most of our project names. We already had Spring dependencies outside of those -spring- projects anyway.
[core] Switch to the org.eclipse.sirius groupId in order to prepare for a future publication of our backend on maven central
#808 [core] Update the namespace of the packages from org.eclipse.sirius.web.xxx to org.eclipse.sirius.components.xxx.
#998 [core] Remove the various annotations used to support a code-first approach to build the GraphQL schema
#975 [core] Remove useless parts of the GraphQL API which were both unused by the Sirius Components frontend and not handled by the Sirius Components backend
#959 [diagram] Remove the concept of DeleteTool. This concept was not useful since any tool can perform a deletion
#1018 [core] Remove the default implementation of IRepresentationMetadataSearchService since products integrating Sirius Components needs the ability to customize its behavior
#1019 [core] Services now have access to the context of the request triggering their execution. Consumer of Sirius Components will have to provide the RequestAttributes in the `RequestContextHolder to make the `EditingContextEventProcessor` work. It should be very easy for those in a Spring environment, but it is not automatic for those outside of a Spring environment
#699 [core] The IRepresentationImageProvider will now use the kind of the representation instead of the instance to compute the image. It will allow users to ask for the image of a representation with either its instance or its metadata
#699 [core] Add the targetObjectId to the RepresentationMetadata
#1045 [core] Providers will now return List<?> instead of List<Object>. This makes it possible for applications to reuse existing services to implement providers without making useless copies of lists
#1068 [form] The form representation is now supporting multiple elements as an input
#1068 [workbench] The integration of the details view in the workbench is not limited to semantic objects with a kind starting with siriusComponents://semantic. Any object can be used as the input of the details view and we will now provide the identifier of all the objects in the selection. This may include graphical elements such as nodes, edges, representations or anything selected in the explorer for example
#693 [workbench] The workbench non longer hard-codes the views which are visible in the left and right side-panels. Instead, each application must explicitly configure its workbench using the new WorkbenchViewContribution element. See ADR-046 for more details. As part of this change, the ExplorerWebSocketContainerProps, PropertiesWebSocketContainerProps, RepresentationsWebSocketContainerProps and ValidationWebSocketContainer types have been removed and replaced with the single WorkbenchViewComponentProps type which is structurally equivalent.
#779 [diagram] Change the signature of the GraphQL API used to retrieve the tools of the diagram’s contextual palette in order to include the identifier of the diagram element
#1022 [diagram] The NodeCreationEvent and the EdgeCreationEvent have been renamed to SinglePositionEvent and DoublePositionEvent to distinguish from any imagined behavior. Additional tests of the incremental layout should be added in the future to test its behavior in use cases that we did not consider in the past. The CreateNodeTool and CreateEdgeTool have also been renamed in order to describe how the user interact with them instead of the behavior that we imagine they have. Their associated mutations have also been renamed. See the ADR for additional details

#1081 [workbench] It is now possible to specify the component to display in the main area when no representation is open instead of the OnboardArea (which is still the default when there is no override)
#1070 [explorer] When selecting an element or opening a representation (for example from its URL or from the onboard area), it is automatically made visible and selected in the explorer.
#919 [diagram] Support the parent container resize for the border nodes on back-end
#1071 [diagram] Add a label for the border nodes
#1071 [diagram] Improve the resizing of the border nodes
#783 [diagram] Nodes which use images can now also have a border with all the relevant properties: color, size, radius, and line style. This applies to modelers using the compatibility layer and the web-based diagram definitions

v2022.01.0

Architectural decision records

[ADR-37] Add support for connector tool
[ADR-38] Improve the layout of multiple edges between the same nodes

Deprecation warning

#858 [core] Our dependency to Spring Security will be reduced or eliminated soon. Sirius Components will now longer have any opinion on matters of authentication, authorization, principal management, etc. All those concerns will be out of the scope of the project. It will also be way easier to integrate Sirius Components in a Spring based application since it won’t come with this additional requirement

Breaking changes

#858 [core] Remove most of the methods of ISubscriptionManager since they were not really useful
#871 [core] Change the constructor of the EditingContextEventProcessor in order to let consumers provide an IEditingContextEventProcessorExecutorServiceProvider
#134 [workbench] Switch from a single-selection API to a multi-selection API with some changes to the Selection object of the workbench
#878 [core] As specified in the ADR-36, the kind of an object (representation, semantic elements, selection entry of the workbench) is now an URI. All previous kind values have been modified
#878 [graphql] The GraphQL argument classId which appeared on some fields has been replaced by kind since it was always the kind of an object. Technically, it is always the kind of a semantic element but that may not be the case forever
[core] IEditService.findClass() has been removed
[core] IRepresentationDescriptionSearchService has a new findAll method to return all the representation descriptions available in a given editing context
[core] The package containing the concepts related to the editing context has been renamed to remove references to the project
#932 [graphql] Introduce the RepresentationMetadata concept in order to prepare the separation of the metadata from the representation

[frontend] Switch to @typescript-eslint/parser 5.7.0
[frontend] Switch to xstate 4.26.1
[frontend] Update various development dependencies such as Rollup, ESLint, Prettier and Jest

New features

#726 [view] Nodes can now have a dynamically computed size (using sizeComputationExpression) which depends on the current state of the semantic model. If the expression is present and produces a positive integer, it will be used as both the width and height of the node, in pixels. Currently it is not possible to compute different values for width and height.
#133 [diagram] Add a connector tool to help create edges in diagrams
#596 [view] It is now possible to define border nodes in dynamic diagram definitions
#132 [diagram] Add support for drag and drop from the explorer to a diagram

#884 [view] Add support for defining unsynchronized nodes and edges
#822 [diagram] Add support for graphical deletion. We can now offer a dedicated menu in the user interface to perform a graphical deletion instead of a semantic one. On the backend, the compatibility layer has been updated to perform a DeletionViewRequest if there is no default deletion tool and a new variable named deletionPolicy is available to determine if the deletion should be performed graphically or semantically
#943 [view] Add support for optional begin & end labels on edges in views
#822 [view] Handle 'Delete from Diagram' in view-based diagrams

Improvements

#871 [core] An IEditingContextEventProcessorExecutorServiceProvider can be given to the EditingContextEventProcessor in order to customize the ExecutorService which will be used to handle the processing of the IInput received. This will allow consumers to change the thread management policy of Sirius Components
#134 [workbench] The internal API of the workbench is now ready to accept features leveraging a multi-selection

v2021.12.0

Architectural decision records

[ADR-032] Relax our ID policy for editing context and representation (update)
[ADR-034] Switch from semver to calver
[ADR-035] Use a common pattern for configuration properties
[ADR-036] Adopt a more structured selection

Deprecation warning

#818 [workbench] The concept of Selection will be restructured, as described in the ADR-036. Every part of the code involved in the manipulation of the selection of the workbench will be impacted. This includes concepts as remote as the representation descriptions which are used to computed fields like kind. For example, the behavior of the TreeDescription#getKindProvider and NodeDescription#getTargetObjectKindProvider will have to be updated for all the providers. Failure to update to the new behavior will make the selection fail in the workbench
[core] The Success parameterless constructor will be removed soon.

Breaking changes

#804 [core] Update the name of our configuration properties. The configuration property sirius.web.graphql.websocket.allowed.origins will now be sirius.components.cors.allowedOriginPatterns and it will support complex patterns on top of regular origins. The default value will be restored to nothing since it has temporarily been set to . In a development environment, the recommended value would be both patterns and * in order to accept requests from any application hosted on the same machine. The configuration property org.eclipse.sirius.web.editingContextEventProcessorRegistry.disposeDelay will now be sirius.components.editingContext.disposeDelay. Its default value will be 1s since it is the only realistic option with domain and view support.
#692 [explorer] The explorer view is now more generic and extensible. It can represent arbitrary kinds of tree items, but the tree items supported must be configured for each application.
#700 [core] editingContextId and representationId are no longer UUID but String. Products that rely on sirius-components will be able to have their own ID policy for the editingContextId and representationId.

Dependency update

[core] Switch to Spring Boot 2.5.6

New features

#773 [compatibility] Add support for both createView and deleteView model operations which can be used to support unsynchronized diagrams from Sirius Desktop.
#694 [core] Add IRepresentationRefreshPolicyRegistry to contribute `IRepresentationRefreshPolicyProvider`s in order to customize on which kind of change description, representations will be refreshed.
#613 [compatibility] Add support for external java action with the new API IExternalJavaActionProvider which allows others to provide instances of IExternalJavaAction in order to perform some custom behavior during the execution of a tool for example.
#154 [diagram] Add support for the edition of the label of an edge

Improvements

#799 [diagram] The buttons in the diagram’s toolbar now have proper tooltips
[core] Add a task to display TypeScript errors in the VS Code problems view
#773 [compatibility] The synchronization policy of the node descriptions is now properly computed from the AbstractNodeMapping
#694 [core] Data can be provided to Success in order to notify changement made by operation made on the editing context.
[explorer] The context menus on explorer items has been migrated to Material UI
#692 [tree] The tree representation will now act as a proper representation. Its event handlers will now be implementations of ITreeEventHandler and its input will be implementations of ITreeInput
[diagram] The variable selectedNode is now available even if there are no selectedObject from a selection representation
#817 [core] Improve the TypeScript typing of the frontend
[form] Add support for property groups defined in a different category

Bug fixes

[diagram] The variable selectedNode was only available in the variable manager used when executing node tools if a selection dialog was also available. Now the selectedNode variable will always be available unless the tool has been invoked on the background of the diagram

v0.5.0

Architectural decision records

[ADR-024] Add support for view deletion requests
[ADR-025] Switch to a schema first approach for our GraphQL schema
[ADR-026] Improve the performance of unsynchronized nodes
[ADR-027] Make the explorer independent from modeling concepts
[ADR-028] Move representations out of the explorer
[ADR-029] Introduce some object services
[ADR-030] Add a link representation
[ADR-031] Separate metadata representations
[ADR-032] Relax our constraints on some of our identifiers
[ADR-033] Add support for unsynchronized tools

Deprecation warning

[core] The field ChangeKind#NOTHING will be removed soon since we have the option to just not send anything at all
[explorer] Representations will be removed from the explorer soon
[core] The metadata of the representations will be removed from the content of the representation soon. As a result, fields like IRepresentation#id, IRepresentation#descriptionId or event IRepresentation#label will be removed. It will allow us to massively improve the performance of some use cases and simplify the manipulation of the representations in other use cases
[workbench] The workbench will become independent of internal concepts from Sirius Components. As a result, the explorer will not have any hardcoded actions such as "create a new document" or "create a new representation". The concept of document will be removed from the frontend entirely
[graphql] The interface ITypeProvider will soon be removed
[graphql] All the GraphQL annotations used to build the schema programmatically will be removed soon such as @GraphQLObjectType, @GraphQLField, @GraphQLNonNull, @GraphQLID. Annotations used to execute GraphQL queries like @QueryDataFetcher or @MutationDataFetcher will still be supported

Breaking changes

#673 [graphql] Rename namespace to domain in the GraphQL API
[core] Remove the need to give a logger to the BaseRender
[properties] Remove useless fields from the properties payloads
[graphql] Use pagination for the fields used by the onboarding such as EditingContext#stereotypeDescriptions or EditingContext#representations
#563 [core] Update the support for custom images by referencing images by their identifiers instead of their file name
#683 [core] Move projects such as sirius-web-services-api, sirius-web-services, sirius-web-graphql-schema and sirius-web-graphql out of Sirius Components
[core] Remove all the sirius-web-collaborative-XXX-api projects. Those projects became a random collection of all the interfaces (external APIs and internal ones) used by the collaborative projects. Those interfaces now exist within the various collaborative projects
[graphql] Remove the field ErrorPayload#additionalMessages since it was useless
[graphql] Remove the principal from the GraphQL Context since Spring Security allows us to access it much more easily
#744 [core] Use Reactor to communicate event handler results. As a result of this change, the concept of EventHandlerResponse has been removed and replaced with two different sinks. The payloadSink should be used to communicate a response to the process which has sent the input to handler. The changeDescriptionSink can be used in order to indicate to the other event processors a change that has occur. Such change may trigger a refresh or other behavior in the other event processors
#727 [core] Make IRepresentationDescriptionSearchService editing context aware
#750 [core] Add the ability to provide a status error message. The enumeration Status has been replaced by an interface named IStatus with two classes implementing it, Failure and Success. Thanks to Failure, it is now possible to provide a custom error message for an event handler but as of today this error message is not used in the ErrorPayload created from the Failure. This will change in the future
#740 [domain] Remove the explicit nsURI from domain definitions. Now only a name will be required and other properties will be computed from said name (nsURI and nsPrefix).

New features

#190 [emf] Add support for inverse references navigation thanks to an ECrossReferenceAdapter installed directly on the EditingContext
#588 [domain] Add support for multiple inheritance
#598 [view] Add support for node border size, edge width, label font format and node label color in the view language
#514 [diagram] Disable move, resize and arrange all on auto-layout diagram
#688 [core] Add support for cross site request forgery token while uploading files. Projects integrating Sirius Components will have to decide whether or not they want to add such support and if they want to activate it. It will not be supported for now in Sirius Web
#671 [graphql] Add the GraphQL schemas of Sirius Components. Starting with this commit, projects integrating Sirius Components will be able to easily embrace a schema first approach to build their GraphQL schema. It will also be way easier to track changes to our GraphQL schema over time
#697 [graphql] Add the ability to perform AQL based queries on the content of an editing context using the queryBasedXxx fields
#672 [diagram] Add support for the ViewDeletionRequest in a similar fashion as the previously added ViewCreationRequest in order to support unsynchronized diagram description created programmatically

Improvements

[domain] Add multiple validation rules to help create proper domains
[view] Add validation rules to help create proper views
#646 [view] Improve the default color used for new edges in the view language
[core] Replace most NoOpXxx classes by internal NoOp classes on each interface
#674 [core] Use the Spring Security executor service to propagate the current principal in the thread of the EditingContextEventProcessor instead of relying on our custom solution
#680 [validation] Ensure that the validation view is open by default
#690 [diagram] Add the selectedNode variable to the delete from diagram and invoke node tool handlers
#638 [diagram] Leverage the automatic layout configuration while computing the incremental layout in order to fix differences in behavior between the incremental layout and the automatic layout
#719 [compatibility] Add support for the container and element variables for the node/container creation tools
#729 [emf] Make sure that the resource set of our EditingContext is an IEditingDomainProvider
#731 [view] Allow an EdgeDescription to have multiple sources and targets
#743 [view] Add support for edge labels in views
#739 [view] Add a name to node and edge descriptions
#761 [domain] Validate the names of domains, entities and their features
#767 [core] Use ServerContext to retrieve the httpOrigin in Tool.tsx. Thanks to this improvement, it is possible to embed diagrams with the proper tool image in a complex architecture
[workbench] Improve the overflow management of the onboarding area
#795 [domain] Custom-defined domains now appear first in the new root object modal

Bug fixes

#654 [domain] Set Feature#optional default value to true since false created serialization issues. We cannot provide false as a default value since EMF cannot handle such use case
[diagram] Make the DiagramRenderingCache maps predictable in order to improve performances
#735 [view] Ensure that the generic edge tool is not used when a custom one is provided
#747 [diagram] Fix bounding box computation for images with wide labels
#738 [view] Fix the validation rules of the views when using qualified domain type names
[view] Consider conditional styles when computing a node type. This bug could lead to the creation of diagrams where node declared a specific type that did not match the type of their style. As a result, we could create diagrams that we could not deserialize with our Jackson parser
[core] Add a fallback strategy to the payload sink. With the use of reactor to the event handler, it has become possible to handle an input without ever providing a payload as a response. Now after 5s without a response, an ErrorPayload will be send back. This will not stop the current processing of the input nor will it rollback any change made, it will only send a response to ensure that the frontend is not waiting forever for an answer
#776 [view] Avoid id collision between diagram descriptions with the same name by leveraging the URI of the diagram description to create a more unique identifier

v0.4.0 (2021-07-30)

This new release improves support for meta modeling. It also prepares the removal of a lot of code from this repository. Sirius Components will soon be independent from any persistence layer, from the GraphQL layer and even from a specific business layer.

Architectural decision records

[ADR-020] Add support for validation in the workbench
[ADR-021] Add validation support to forms
[ADR-022] Add support for selection dialog
[ADR-023] Move business code from Sirius Components to Sirius Web

Deprecation warning

[core] All the GraphQL and business related projects will be move to the Sirius Web project. As a result, projects such as sirius-web-services-api, sirius-web-services, sirius-web-graphql-schema and sirius-web-graphql will no longer exist in this repository

Breaking changes

#569 [emf] Move document-related code out of sirius-web-emf

#562 [graphql] Remove references to projectId from the subscriptions and use editingContextId instead
#562 [graphql] Move the representation and representations fields from Project to EditingContext
#562 [core] Remove multiple references to projectId from the collaborative parts. This will impact various concepts such as the input used to edit forms
#584 [graphql] Remove all the GraphQL projects from sirius-web-spring-starter. As such, projects consuming Sirius Components will now have to explicitly depend to those projects. They will soon be removed entirely from Sirius Components to go Sirius Web
#584 [core] Remove the need to perform some access control and remove the IDataFetcherEnvironmentService in favor of ObjectMapper
#589 [core] Remove sirius-web-services from sirius-web-spring-starter. Our business layer will soon be moved out of Sirius Components to Sirius Web
[core] Remove the unused ProjectCreatedEvent
[core] Remove the support for modelers since it has never been used
[core] Refactor the collaborative layer in order to make it easier to reuse in other applications. This change includes a large set of small API breaks to concepts such as IRepresentationService or IRepresentationSearchService
[core] Provide the editing context while searching and saving representations instead of its identifier. As a result, interfaces such as IRepresentationPersistenceService and IRepresentationSearchService have been modified

New features

#554 [core] Add support for the validation view
#428 [properties] Add support for the edition of multi-valued references in the properties view
#559 [diagram] Add support for selection dialogs. This also include the support for SelectModelElementVariable in the Sirius RCP compatibility layer along with an example of such tool in the Flow-Designer
#655 [properties] Add support for the validation in the properties view

Improvements

[core] Improve the ShareDiagramModel, DeleteDocumentModal and UploadModelModal by migrating them to MaterialUI and XState
#550 [diagram] Improve the incremental layout support by taking into account the padding defined in the ELK configuration. On top of that some improvements have been made to the algorithm of the incremental layout in order to maintain it more easily
#640 [core] Use accordions to layout the left and right sites of the workbench

Bug fixes

#604 [core] Use the MaterialUI ClickAwayListener to close the context menu. This help fix an issue where the context menu of the explorer could be closed automatically after being opened
#557 [domain] Fix multiple issues with the first release of domains such as NullPointerException during the transformation and better default values
#557 [view] Fix multiple issues with the first release of views
#451 [diagram] Fix the issue which caused one character to be swallowed during the direct edit of a label in a diagram

v0.3.0 (2021-05-18)

In this third major release, we have introduced support for the meta modeling in the web browser with the new domain and view languages.

In order to make Sirius Components even more reusable, we have removed all of the views of the frontend. Sirius Components will no longer have an opinion on the architecture of the whole frontend application which will include the workbench. It will only provide as frontend components, representations, the workbench and some utility components but not the core structure of a full web application.

On the backend side, things are moving in the same direction with some massive refactoring for the future removal of the persistence layer and the business layer from Sirius Components. All the related projects will soon move to Sirius Web in order to integrate more easily Sirius Components in applications which do not share the same architectural constraints as Sirius Web.

Some improvements have also been made to the incremental layout in order to support a basic workflow.

Architectural decision records

[ADR-011] Decouple the event handlers from the refresh
[ADR-012] Incremental layout: Make it possible to move or create a diagram element at a specific position
[ADR-013] Refactor incremental layout
[ADR-014] Add a correlation identifier to inputs and payloads
[ADR-015] Add support for resizing diagram elements
[ADR-016] Remove SubscriptionDescription
[ADR-017] Improve the source and target edge anchors
[ADR-018] Adopt a subset of Ecore to define data schemas for modelers
[ADR-019] Support Simple Diagram Definitions by Reusing Sirius Desktop VSMs

Deprecation warning

[core] All the business code will be removed from Sirius Components in the months to come (project, document, persistence-related code, etc). This will include projects such as sirius-web-persistence, sirius-web-services-api and more
[core] The support for custom images has been integrated as a prototype. Massive changes to its API will occur in the future in order to cleanup its lifecycle
[core] The concept IDataFetchingEnvironmentService which can be used to setup an access control policy will soon be removed since it will be up to each application to define its own policy

Breaking changes

#152 [releng] Remove usage of airbnb-props-types and universal-cookies since we don’t need them
[core] Make views handle the lifecycle of their navbar instead of relying on a common navbar design and lifecycle. This will lower the complexity of the lifecycle of the views and give way more flexibility to the views
#342 [core] Introduce the ChangeKind concept to decouple event handlers from representation. Prior to this change, an event handler had to know the behavior of all the representations in order to find out which representations were impacted by its change. Now, it can describe the change made and each representation can find out if this change is relevant to them or not
#348 [core] Add a correlation identifier on IInput and IPayload. From now on all payloads created must have, as an identifier, the identifier of the input which has trigger their creation. This will give us the ability to provide advanced features in the future and improve our debugging capabilities now
#351 [core] Transform ChangeKind into ChangeDescription in order to encapsulate the source of the change too. This will allow a representation to distinguish between a SEMANTIC_CHANGE coming from another representation and one coming from itself
#347 [diagram] Replace Size and Position builders by Size#of and Position#at
#378 [core] Make the stereotype description editing context aware. As a result, the IStereotypeService and some related classes are now manipulating an extra parameter in some methods, the editingContextId
#368 [core] Remove the now useless PreDestroyPayload
[properties] Remove the PropertiesEventProcessor which has never been used. Both the properties and the form representation are using the FormEventProcessor
#357 [core] Remove the SubscriptionDescription and use instead the Spring SecurityContextHolder to retrieve the user subscribing to a reactive flux. As a result, this change will give us the ability to use much more easily other GraphQL integration in Spring such as Netflix DGS
#268 [core] Dispose instances of IEditingContextEventProcessor when they are not used anymore. This change introduce some minor evolutions to the API of IDisposablePublisher and IEditingContextEventProcessorRegistry which can impact any custom IRepresentationEventProcessor
#377 [graphql] Rename the projectEvent subscription to editingContextEvent
#382 [diagram] Switch the type of the label identifier from String to UUID
#384 [explorer] Make the child creation descriptions editing context aware in order to leverage the domain to compute the children
[core] Remove the now useless Subscriber component
[compatibility] Remove the now useless CanCreateMappingTester and ToolDescriptionQuery
#386 [graphql] Make the representation creation editing context aware. This will move the field representationDescriptions on the editing context in the GraphQL schema
#333 [core] Make IEditService#findClass editing context aware
#402 [core] Remove all views from Sirius Components. Sirius Components will stop trying to provide a complete product but it will instead be used as a framework which can be used to build collaborative graphical applications. As a result, the views have been removed and most of them been transferred to Sirius Web.
#473 [explorer] Improve the support for the read only workbench. This change introduce some API changes in several key workbench components such as PropertiesWebSocketContainer

#367 [core] Improve the logging of the reactive flux manipulation
#287 [diagram] Refactor the incremental layout
#286 [diagram] Use figure bounds intersection as edge anchor

Bug fixes

#315 [compatibility] Use the label of the conditional style used instead of the fallback style
#342 [explorer] Fix a regression caused by a refactoring which caused the explorer to not be refreshed when a representation had been deleted
[core] Prevent multiple NullPointerException with ObjectService, NodeMapping#getStyle, Edge#toString
#335 [form] Restore icons in list property sections and use the icons of the list item element’s types instead of the selected element’s type
#360 [diagram] Restore the use of auto layout on diagram creation
#346 [compatibility] Make the behavior of the Unset model operation match the one in Sirius RCP. The previous implementation did not actually match the behavior of Sirius Desktop on several points. The featureName was taken as a fixed string, but Sirius Desktop evaluates it as a dynamic expression and the previous implementation could never actually remove individual elements from a multi-valued feature, only reset/clear it
#378 [business] Fix a regression which prevented the creation of new document from the onboarding area
#420 [diagram] Fix a regression on the direct edit in diagrams
[diagram] Leverage the identifier of the edge description while computing the identifier of the edge in order to ensure that we do not have duplicate edge identifiers in a diagram

v0.2.0 (2021-02-12)

Second major release of Sirius Components after the move to an open source project.

Sirius Components was the core part of the proprietary product Obeo Cloud Platform up until a couple months ago. We have transferred in the Eclipse Foundation most of the code of Obeo Cloud Platform to become both Sirius Web and its core part Sirius Components which should be reusable in multiple applications.

In this release, we have made some major refactoring in order to separate some remaining business concern which are specific to Sirius Web from the core goals of Sirius Web. These improvements are not complete and some of them will need to be improved down the road but the structure of the project is starting to be more visible.

Architectural decision records

[ADR-007] Adopt stable identifiers for diagrams
[ADR-008] Add support for incremental layout
[ADR-009] Adopt a proper versioning strategy
[ADR-010] Reduce the coupling of our collaborative support

Deprecation warning

[core] The hook useProject will soon be removed. It’s original goal was to provide the ability to subscribe to a project related subscription but this subscription has never really been used. It was way too much used to simply fetch a project while this could be done with way less dependencies
[core] Any usage of projectId in the collaborative parts or in the representation related code will be removed in the upcoming months
[core] All frontend code using our custom React widgets such as Button, Text, Spacing, Checkbox etc will be modified to use MaterialUI instead
[core] All frontend code using custom made state machines instead of XState based ones will be migrated to XState

Breaking changes

#241 [core] Introduce the sirius-web-core-api project and move some core concepts from the services API into the new core API project such as IEditingContext, IPayload and IInput
#241 [core] Introduce the sirius-web-services project and move some business related concepts like Document, Project and ProjectService out of the collaborative projects
#241 [core] Remove the dependency to the persistence from the collaborative API
#241 [core] Remove the Context concept which was used to propagate the authenticated principal to the business code. It was given to more than 70 classes while used by only a couple of them. On top of that, Spring’s SecurityContextHolder can perform the same job with a much lower coupling. This will help reduce the coupling between the collaborative parts and the services API
#241 [core] Remove the useless IProjectInput and replace its usage with IInput
#241 [core] Remove all dependencies to sirius-web-services-api from sirius-web-collaborative-api
#241 [core] Remove the ProjectRenamedEventPayload to allow us to prepare the future deletion of the useProject hook and the complete removal of business concerns from the collaborative layer
#241 [core] Rename the ProjectEventProcessor to EditingContextEventProcessor. This concept and its registry have been made independent of Project. Those concepts will stop relying on a projectId but an editingContextId instead even if in practice this variable will still contain the value of projectId for now.
#241 [core] Remove the method IEditingContext#getDomain. This method will now only be available on the EMF specific version of the IEditingContext. This contraint was not useful for alternate implementations
#241 [core] Move the RenameRepresentationInput to the sirius-web-collaborative-api and `IObjectService to the sirius-web-core-api
#241 [explorer] Use editingContextId instead of projectId in the explorer
#241 [properties] Move properties related services to form related projects
#241 [diagram] Remove the dependency to sirius-web-services-api in sirius-web-spring-collaborative-diagrams thanks to the introduction of two new projects sirius-web-diagrams-services-api and sirius-web-diagrams-services. These two new projects are used to allow someone else to use a different persistence strategy for the diagrams. It will need to be refined but this solution allows us to isolate our dependency to the IRepresentationRepository
#292 [workbench] Restructure the components used by the workbench to make it reusable by consumers of Sirius Components. Components such as DiagramWebSocketContainer and PropertiesWebSocketContainer have thus been modified. In order to make it easier to reuse a Sirius Components workbench a component named Workbench has been created and new types such as Selection, Representation and WorkbenchProps have been introduced
#303 [business] Remove the link to modelers from the project context menu. Since we will not have time to fix the modelers before the release, we will not show this feature to end users and instead remove links to the modeler related pages

New features

#256 [emf] Add support for composed images for IObjectService#getImage
#220 [core] Add a basic support for the creation and edition of modelers
#131 [diagram] Add feedback to diagrams to indicate that tools cannot be applied
#232 [diagram] Add first support for incremental layout
#153 [workbench] Add the ability to close representations by adding a MaterialUI tabbar to display representations
#293 [workbench] Lower the coupling between the workbench and representations by introducing the RepresentationContext and the type RepresentationComponentProps for all representation components which replaces types such as DiagramWebSocketContainerProps. The RepresentationContext can be used to contribute additional representations to the Sirius Components workbench.
#296 [core] Introduce the ServerContext in order to customize the URL of the server used by the frontend components. This will allow consumers of Sirius Components to specify a different httpOrigin to organize their frontend and backend in a very different manner

Improvements

#252 [diagram] Improve the TypeScript typing of the DiagramWebSocketContainer with the introduction of Selection and a dedicated DiagramWebSocketContainerProps
[releng] Trigger the build on any pull requests regardless of their origin
#283 [graphql] Add the EditingContext to the GraphQL API
#261 [emf] Improve the perform of the DocumentService by removing some useless loading and serializing steps of EMF resources
#238 [diagram] Migrate the DiagramWebSocketContainer to XState and MaterialUI

Bug fixes

#278 [diagram] Ensure that we are always sending the latest diagram state and not the initial state when new users subscribe to an already opened diagram
#295 [diagram] Fix a bug which could lead to the creation of a diagram containing labels with the same identifier
