February 2025 Monthly Summary for ProgrammeVitam/vitam-ui. Focused on stabilizing VitamUI deployment, modernizing architecture, and equipping the team with migration tooling to support merged layers. Business value centers on deployment reliability, maintainability, and faster feature delivery for VitamUI users across environments. Key features delivered: - VitamUI deployment improvements: stabilized deployment after archive-search consolidation, reducing rollout risk and post-merge failures. - VitamUI architecture migration and component renames: migrated external/internal layers and renamed VitamUI components across the stack, delivering a cleaner, more modular architecture and easier onboarding for new contributors. - Migration tooling for merged layers: added a migration playbook and documentation updates; migrated collect-external layer to collect for consistent downstream builds and operations. - Code quality improvement: cleaned vitamui_defaults variable to ensure correct configuration usage, reducing runtime misconfigurations. - Packaging/build optimization: prevented building pastis-standalone in rpm or deb packages to streamline artifacts and reduce build times. Major bugs fixed: - Mongo deployment/infra: reset mongo_nodes facts to ensure accurate inventory and runbook reliability. - Container/build: added missing iam-external component to container builds, eliminating a blocker for image creation. - Packaging/build hygiene: ensured packaging does not attempt to build pastis-standalone for rpm/deb, avoiding invalid artifacts. - UI/messages and data handling: fixed renaming of Filebeat fields, corrected drop message, and resolved typos in UI messages (dialog prompts, schema import, ontology import), improving user-facing clarity. - Operational labeling: restored missing labels for paused operations and fixed event handling when steps are empty, improving operability and troubleshooting. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Significantly improved deployment reliability and consistency across VitamUI environments. - Achieved a coherent, scalable architecture with standardized layer naming and component structure. - Reduced build noise and errors by pruning unsupported packaging formats and ensuring complete container builds. - Strengthened observability and user experience through UI and messaging fixes, facilitating faster issue resolution and lower support load.
