Separate server name and id, use hostname-valid encoding #216

duncanbeevers · 2017-08-07T06:05:28Z

If you name your ~/.hotel/servers files using non-uri characters, they aren't recognized by the exists middleware.

This PR allows intuitive, human-friendly naming of these files, and a more beautiful list of servers.

-    const id = req.params.id
-      ? this.resolve(req.params.id)
-      : this.resolve(req.hostname.replace(tld, ''))
+    const tld = new RegExp(`\\.${daemonConf.tld}$`)


The previous regexp here wasn't enforcing a dot.

+        .encode(id)


punycode won't mess with existing ASCII; it only ensures that non-ASCII characters get embedded into a hostname-valid space.

+    ? punycode
+        .encode(id)
+        .toLowerCase()
+        .replace(/[^a-z0-9-.]/g, '-')


This ensures that ASCII characters such as spaces, parentheses, commas, and so on, are encoded to a hostname-valid space.

+        .replace(/-+/g, '-')


Because so many characters are replaced by hyphen, any run of multiple hyphens is collapsed to a single hyphen.

Why the ternary, have you spotted a case where it can can be undefined or is it for safety?
Could you write some tests for normalize or add a comment with examples of inputs and expected outputs?

Not sure to understand what they're for?

.replace(/-+/g, '-') .replace(/-$/, '')

It’s to ensure that multiple invalid characters only get replaced by one -, and to remove trailing -s.

Yes, this is just for tidiness sake. In the examples I posted server names include whitespace followed by non-alpha-numeric characters resulting in double hyphens.

It looks a little cleaner to me to tidy them, but the code I wrote mostly applies to my own naming scheme. For example, it doesn't remove leading hyphens, but that's only because I'd never named a server something that would result in a leading hyphen.

I'm happy to simplify this entire section and simply use the pure punycode replacements. That seems less likely to result in id collisions where multiple similarly-named servers normalize to the same server id.

Thanks for the PR :) (and the style fix)

I'd like to understand better, the idea is to be to have "pretty" names for files and automatically get valid domain?

Something like:

~/.hotel/servers/My Server (something).json # my-server-something.localhost

What does your projects directories look like? Do they have () as well or is it just something you want to have in hotel UI?

duncanbeevers · 2018-01-12T20:12:11Z

@typicode The filenames represent the displayed values, like so:

❯ ls -1 ~/.hotel/servers/
Always Master (staging).json
Always Master.json
Auth (staging).json
Auth.json
PMP (desktop).json
PMP (tv).json
Style Guide.json
desktop (staging).json
desktop.json
hotel.json
reflector.json
tv.json

In some cases, parameterizable hotel servers would alleviate this, as many of the configurations are very similar to one another with the modification of one or two command-line flags.
