rCOMMc028c2a4f299: [services] [5/n] prefix search websocket server

Summary

This diff implements a Websocket server on the identity service that queries users on the Opensearch domain with prefixes. Currently, these diffs implements just the upgrade and prefix searching. Diffs for authentication are pending testing.

The websocket server is initialized on port 50057 on the identity server.

Depends on D9878

Test Plan

Tested on staging with a custom image. Upgrade successful and prefix search returns a list of user_id, username pairs.

Looking for some clarification on a few things. Tunnelbroker currently keeps a heartbeat and terminates on timeout. Do we wish to do the same with clients connected to this websocket server? |

Currently, in terms of error handling, I've opted to just use expects similar to Tunnelbroker. The tokio task simply panics with the expect message. I believe that this is alright for now, but wanted to check whether we wanted to use Results instead.

General notes:

Terraform looks okay 👍
Hyper / upgrade request stuff looks okay (we do the same in Tunnelbroker, I'll move this part to shared code soon)
My comment in main.rs is crucial for correct error handling.
Open question to other reviewers about port numbers (see inline comments)
@kamil could you take a look at the accept_connection() part, especially message and error handling there? You're probably the most experienced person here. I think doing expect() terminates the websocket connection, but I'm unsure about other possible side effects

services/identity/src/main.rs
85–92 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	Look at these comments: https://linear.app/comm/issue/ENG-4795/improve-tunnelbroker-error-handling#comment-e5b7ef52 You probably want the same here. Tunnelbroker has it wrong
services/identity/src/websockets/mod.rs
145–147 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	Should the `"OPENSEARCH_ENDPOINT"` be in `constants.rs`? 2, Might be a good idea to use clap: add `--opensearch-endpoint` CLI flag which handles the env var and default value for you. See `config.rs`, it's a matter of adding a single field to the struct.
187–189 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	Up to you, might be more readable
200–203 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	Perhaps this is purposeful design idea, I don't know, but I don't see a point here Why is this `results` field a list of stringified JSONs? Why do we stringify them again instead of simply returning list of `User` objects? I.e. why doing this: { "action": "searchResults", "results": ["{\"username\":\"john\",\"user_id\":\"123\"}", "..."] } instead of: { "action": "searchResults", "results": [ { "username": "john", "user_id": "123" }, { ... } ] }
services/terraform/remote/service_identity.tf
11–12 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	I don't have any strong opinion on this, but what about following Tunnelbroker's port convention? This is: 50051 - grpc 51001 - websocket Since Identity exposes gRPC on 50054, how about exposing WebSocket on 51004?
14 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	You don't need this one unless you use `services_connect_configuration` to expose WebSocket to other services

Yeah. The port number of 50057 was chosen arbitrarily as the next free port after 50054. If there's a convention we're using, we should definitely use that.

Thanks for addressing my feedback! Mostly LGTM, still letting others view it.

Only my inline question about stringifying nested JSON still remains unanswered

nix/dev-shell.nix
118 ↗	(On Diff #34958)	This is seemingly required for cargo to build. I believe the compilation errors began occurring after using the latest version of reqwest. I tried using an older version of reqwest but it was incompatible with our tokio runtime version. So need to put these in our nix files for everything to build on server and local dev.

services/identity/src/websockets/mod.rs
200–203 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	My bad, forget to respond. So stringifying in my earlier diff was definitely an oversight. I mistakenly believed that serde_json::json! would convert the usernames to objects. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe I have addressed this issue in my last diff update by collecting them as values.

services/identity/src/websockets/mod.rs
193–205 ↗	(On Diff #34958)	If `hit.document()` return type is `User`, and `User` has `#[derive(Serialize)]`, you can even skip the `Value` type, the `json!` should recognize `User` automatically
200–203 ↗	(On Diff #34817)	Sorry, missed your change. I was just curious if that stringifying was intentional.

One question and one suggestion, otherwise LGTM

services/identity/src/websockets/mod.rs
154 ↗	(On Diff #34958)	I don't think using `expect()` in this loop is a good idea, it's probably better to log the error and break the loop to execute `outgoing.close()` to shut it down gracefully and ensure the connection is closed
183–187 ↗	(On Diff #34958)	I am not familiar with the entire architecture of this solution, but shouldn't we, instead of ' expect()` to keep the connection open and e.g. send a message to the client that something went wrong? Terminating code and breaking socket connection seems excessive, but maybe that's the intention, I am just asking

log reqwest error instead of mapping to SearchError

Any idea why so many of the CI builds are failing?

Previous reqwest change didn't include error type change

Error on my part. I made some changes for it to build last night but didn't pick up all my changes with arc diff.

Still working on resolving CommTest build errors. That's still caused by the lambda workflow.

Harbormaster failed remote builds in B25399: Diff 35091!Dec 29 2023, 8:05 AM

Another note for my reviewers. I decided to implement a function that sends errors back to the websocket client similar to tunnelbroker.

Tunnelbroker's send_error_init_response handles this by taking ownership of the SplitSink named outgoing. This is okay as the tunnelbroker websocket server returns from the loop after the error.

With Kamil's suggestion, we are using continue in the loop instead of breaking from the loop. This meant the function would need to borrow the SplitSink instead. However, this causes errors with the line

tokio::spawn(async move {
  accept_connection(websocket, addr).await;
});

as this future is not Send due to send_error_response taking a mutable reference of the SplitSink (in my first attempt).

Therefore, I decided to use Arc and Mutex. However, another option might have been to forward tasks to the SplitSink with an mpsc channel and clone mpsc Senders to each new error response thread. Just putting this out there in case I missed something or I should use the mpsc solution.
