Jun 1, 2025June 2025 performance highlights for SimonRichardson/juju: Strengthened upgrade workflows, enhanced agent management, and overhauled storage directive architecture, all while improving reliability through broader testing and code quality improvements. Key features delivered: - Controller upgrade domain and services: introduced a dedicated domain and domain service for controller upgrades, with target version tracking on bootstrap and related DDL changes, plus documentation to support rollout. - Controller upgrader state and controller model state: added controller upgrader controller state and implemented controller model state; renamed legacy model state to controller model state and updated docs accordingly. - Agent version/state management enhancements: added a new state layer for modeling agent version, including a quick-exit path for set-version logic and refactors; introduced agent stream validation with explicit valid/invalid checks. - Storage directives Core/Unit integration: implemented core storage directive logic, unit-level propagation from apps to units, and creation of storage instances from directives; introduced validation for storage overrides and provisioning triggers. - Quality and maintenance improvements: extensive refactors focusing on code style, testing, error handling, and documentation; enhancements to entity life mapper/helpers tests and fixes across upgrade and password handling workflows. Major bugs fixed: - Controller upgrade logic comparison bug fix and model state naming adjustments to align with expected states. - Missing error checks in agent password flow; fixes to agent upgrader facades and seeding tests; cleanup of storage domain and related API surfaces. - Documentation-related fixes and minor hygiene cleanups to improve developer experience and consistency. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Increased reliability and safety of controller upgrades through formalized upgrade domain/state, improved bootstrap/version handling, and better traceability. - Improved end-to-end storage configuration capabilities from app directives to unit storage, reducing misconfigurations and enabling more flexible deployments. - Broader test coverage and code hygiene contributing to maintainability, faster onboarding, and more predictable releases. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Go-based domain-driven design patterns, state management, and refactoring techniques. - Storage directive architecture, propagation, and validation mechanisms. - Test-driven improvements, documentation hygiene, and CI-friendly code quality practices.
