## Summary Phase 1 of a multi-phase cautious approach for adding an experimental application cache for Kibana solutions called `metric_entities` and integrates it within Security Solutions. Phase 1 is putting experimental support into the application without breaking existing features. Lots of TODO's, conversations and a possible RFC from phase 1 to phase 2 approach. Some features are missing, but for phase 1 the general idea and code is all there. To enable this first phase after checking out the branch add this to your `kibana.dev.yml` ```yml xpack.metricsEntities.enabled: true xpack.securitySolution.enableExperimental: ['metricsEntitiesEnabled'] ``` Then go into Stack Management -> Advanced Settings (Under Security Solutions) and set the enabled to true like so: <img width="1229" alt="Screen Shot 2021-04-08 at 2 21 02 PM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/114091276-b3cbb700-9875-11eb-9083-5c1d91dd20ed.png"> Next go to the security_solutions page and you will see it being activated and you will have these transforms running if you look under stack management: <img width="1710" alt="Screen Shot 2021-04-29 at 2 00 27 PM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/116611174-4a2e4e00-a8f3-11eb-9e15-55cb504dfb2a.png"> On the hosts page, network, page, etc... You can see them being activated when you have no query/filter and you click on request: <img width="1405" alt="Screen Shot 2021-04-29 at 2 01 28 PM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/116611274-6a5e0d00-a8f3-11eb-9998-9f5b3d1c5c63.png"> You will see in the request the index patterns all starting with `estc_xyz*` ### Checklist Delete any items that are not applicable to this PR. - [x] Any text added follows [EUI's writing guidelines](https://elastic.github.io/eui/#/guidelines/writing), uses sentence case text and includes [i18n support](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/packages/kbn-i18n/README.md) We have lots of TODO's but no concrete docs with this just yet. - [ ] [Documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/development-documentation.html) was added for features that require explanation or tutorials Behind a feature flag and this isn't there yet. - [ ] [Unit or functional tests](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/development-tests.html) were updated or added to match the most common scenarios |

Kibana-related packages
This folder contains packages that are intended for use in Kibana and Kibana plugins.
tl;dr:
- Don't publish to npm registry
- Always use the
@kbnnamespace - Always set
"private": trueinpackage.json
Using these packages
We no longer publish these packages to the npm registry. Now, instead of specifying a version when including these packages, we rely on yarn workspaces, which sets up a symlink to the package.
For example if you want to use the @kbn/i18n package in Kibana itself, you
can specify the dependency like this:
"@kbn/i18n": "1.0.0"
However, if you want to use this from a Kibana plugin, you need to use a link:
dependency and account for the relative location of the Kibana repo, so it would
instead be:
"@kbn/i18n": "link:../../kibana/packages/kbn-i18n"
How all of this works is described in more detail in the
@kbn/pm docs.
Creating a new package
Create a new sub-folder. The name of the folder should mirror the name in the
package's package.json. E.g. if the name is @kbn/i18n the folder name
should be kbn-i18n.
All new packages should use the @kbn namespace, and should be marked with
"private": true.
Unit tests for a package
Currently there is only one tool being used in order to test packages which is Jest. Below we will explain how it should be done.
Jest
A package should follow the pattern of having .test.js files as siblings of the source code files, and these run by Jest.
A package using the .test.js naming convention will have those tests automatically picked up by Jest and run by the unit test runner, currently mapped to the Kibana test script in the root package.json.
yarn testoryarn grunt testruns all unit tests.yarn jestruns all Jest tests in Kibana.
In order for the plugin or package to use Jest, a jest.config.js file must be present in it's root. However, there are safeguards for this in CI should a test file be added without a corresponding config file.
Each package can also specify its own test script in the package's package.json, for cases where you'd prefer to run the tests from the local package directory.
