After a bit more thinking, we will create new SDK packages for each
of the languages we wish to support writing resource providers in.
This is where the RPC goo will live, so I have created a new sdk/
directory, moved the Protobuf/gRPC definitions underneath sdk/proto/,
and put the generated code into sdk/go/ and sdk/js/.
This rearranges the library code:
* sdk/... goes away.
* What used to be sdk/javascript/ is now lib/mu/, an actual MuPackage
that provides the base abstractions for all other MuPackages to use.
* lib/aws is the @mu/aws MuPackage that exposes all AWS resources.
* lib/mux is the @mu/x MuPackage that provides cross-cloud abstractions.
A lot of what used to be in lib/mu goes here. In particular, autoscaler,
func, ..., all the "general purpose" abstractions, really.
In the old system, the core runtime/toolset understood that we are targeting
specific cloud providers at a very deep level. In fact, the whole code-generation
phase of the compiler was based on it.
In the new system, this difference is less of a "special" concern, and more of
a general one of mapping MuIL objects to resource providers, and letting *them*
gather up any configuration they need in a more general purpose way.
Therefore, most of this stuff can go. I've merged in a small amount of it to
the mu/x MuPackage, since that has to switch on cloud IaaS and CaaS providers in
order to decide what kind of resources to provision. For example, it has a
mu.x.Cluster stack type that itself provisions a lot of the barebone essential
resources, like a virtual private cloud and its associated networking components.
I suspect *some* knowledge of this will surface again as we implement more
runtime presence (discovery, etc). But for the time being, it's a distraction
getting the core model running. I've retained some of the old AWS code in the
new pkg/resource/providers/aws package, in case I want to reuse some of it when
implementing our first AWS resource providers. (Although we won't be using
CloudFormation, some of the name generation code might be useful.) So, the
ships aren't completely burned to the ground, but they are certainly on 🔥.
This change introduces a basic JavaScript SDK (actually in TypeScript,
but consumable either way). This is just scaffolding but provides the
minimal set of abstractions necessary to start writing real stacks.
