zLUX

This is the project home of the zLUX portion of the Zowe Project. Within, there are several repositories and superprojects which help to categorize the components available for use.

This project is in active development and documentation may be brief at this time. Feel free to contribute to the Wiki and we'll keep the READMEs updated over time.

If you want to get started with a Zowe for the first time, it is best to start by cloning this "zlux" repository. Contained within is a flat collection of subrepositories which are a set of sample Apps for Zowe, the zLUX Framework, and an example zLUX server that pulls it all together.

New users should take a look at zlux-app-server to see how a simple zLUX server is assembled. You'll see the build scripts used to create the deploy/runtime folder structure needed, and a JS file that creates a custom implementation of the Zowe nodeJS-based server.

Note: When using zlux-app-server or any Zowe server which needs to make use of the ZSS (Z Secure Services) Server , please reach out to Rocket members of Zowe who can help to provide you with the external content required for these. In zlux-app-server in particular, you'll see references to "externals/Rocket" where Rocket content external to Github should be placed for full functionality.

npm install fails (internal-ip)

The webClient's package.json requests @angular-devkit/build-angular which requests webpack-dev-server which requests internal-ip which recently implemented a whitelist of OSs omitting os390, this causes the npm install to fail.

Progress circle keeps spinning even after access has failed

Same as issue zowe/explorer-uss#9 in explorer-mvs.

Notify about transfer interruptions

As an App user, I want to be notified of transfer interruptions, so that I am aware if something failed.

Acceptance criteria: user is aware that interruption has occurred - notification should be issued via notification manager, and modal popup that uses Error Widget should be seen on App. Console log should also indicate that a failure occurred
Acceptance criteria: notification, modal error widget, and console log all needs to be informative about the error to the point that the user or support can understand what happened.
Acceptance criteria: notification should occur as a result of a download or upload being interrupted for any reason, such as network disruption or session expiration.

UI: Introduce the ability to close and open and resize the JES tree view

A user should be able to collapse the JES tree in order to see a full screen spool output file
A user should be able to go from a full screen spool output file back to the JES tree and apply filters only to show that job

A user should be able to drag and shrink side panel

REST calls should be versioned

Env var for building UI is "MVD_DESKTOP_DIR"

The env var for finding the webpack and typescript config files has a misleading name. It should perhaps be "ZLUX_UI_SCRIPTS_DIR"

Multi-Window support for apps

Multi-Window support for apps

Desktop: Apps to control launchbar icon jump list

The jump list seen when right-clicking each icon on the launchbar makes use of the context menu object in Zowe which allows for a name to be associated with an action.
I think it would be easy to populate this list with App-custom entries, to do some short list of operations.

Ways to populate:

1. Runtime: Have an App context object that it receives allow it to populate its jump list
2. Startup: Have the Desktop load files from the configuration dataservice for each App.
   2a. Saving: provide some way for Apps to request the Desktop to preserve what it set at runtime for next time around.

Valid actions:

1. Start an instance of the App with some launchContext info.
2. Open a link (new tab??? in-desktop???)

Tiling window support

If you could have hotkeys to take all open windows and position them equally as tiles on the screen, or hotkeys to take one window and put it on the left 50% of the screen and another to put on the right 50% of the screen, these would be great productivity additions to the virtual desktop.

UI fails to expand symlinks

Symlinks are shown in the navigator tree with the same icon as plain files, but when you click on one, nothing happens. Therefore you can't do anything with symlinks. There needs to be a different icon and behaviour for symlinks.

Extensible resource access framework

Sometimes z Systems developers may need access to source code that is in an SCM (so - neither in MVS nor Unix) - for example, to view the code in the editor. It would be nice to have a common way in Zowe to access these resources.

What I have in mind is a URI resolver component (perhaps implemented as a Node module?), where Zowe-based tooling in zLux can simply refer to source files using a URI, and the URI resolver component can do things like get the contents of the resource so that it can be opened in the editor. SCM providers can then extend Zowe to resolve URI's that are particular to their SCM.

Namespaced injectors are handled in a non-standard way

Due to angular/angular#15613, injectors that are defined in namespaces are not declared in the usual way.

e.g., Instead of:

constructor(	constructor(
    public windowManager: WindowManagerService,
    private http: Http,
    @Inject(MVDHosting.Tokens.AuthenticationManagerToken)
  ) {

We have to use

constructor(
    public windowManager: WindowManagerService,
    private http: Http,
    private injector: Injector
  ) {
    this.authenticationManager = this.injector.get(MVDHosting.Tokens.AuthenticationManagerToken);

If the angular issue gets fixed, or if we find a better solution, there are several places that can be cleaned up.

Indicators for download & upload progress

As an App user, I want to be notified and visualize progress of transfer, so that I know when my download or upload is complete.

Visualize transfer progress through progress bar on App UI, but also use notification manager to alert when a transfer has completed

Acceptance criteria: Have a progress bar that is shown during a download or upload where the activity of the bar corresponds to the percent complete of the download or upload
Acceptance criteria: Alert the user via notification manager that the download has completed.

Architectural requirement: progress bar is a component that is informed of progress of actions whether its

Errors in loading a plugin should not interrupt server as a whole

If there are problems with loading a plugin, the server should "note" (at least output a message to the log) that a specific plugin failed to load, but the remainder of plugins should be loaded, and server startup should complete.

Example: if there is circular dependency between the services of two different plugins, those plugins should fail to load, but the server should complete its startup.

Current behavior:

The error is logged and startup does not continue. The nodeServer process does not stop, but the nodeServer is not fully initialized to server Zowe ZLUX (desktop)
Server Log:

could not start the server:  Error: Cyclic dependency, node was:{"identifier":"org.zowe.zlux.sample.iframe","apiVersion":"1.0.0","pluginVersion":"1.0.0","pluginType":"application","webContent":{"framework":"iframe","launchDefinition":{"pluginShortNameKey":"sampleiframe","pluginShortNameDefault":"IFrame Sample","imageSrc":"assets/icon.png"},"descriptionKey":"Sample App Showcasing IFrame Adapter","descriptionDefault":"Sample App Showcasing IFrame Adapter","startingPage":"html/index.html","isSingleWindowApp":true,"defaultWindowStyle":{"width":800,"height":445,"x":200,"y":50},"path":"..\\..\\sample-iframe-app\\web"},"dataServices":[{"type":"import","sourcePlugin":"org.zowe.zlux.sample.angular","sourceName":"hello","localName":"hello"}],"configuration":{"contents":{}},"location":"../../sample-iframe-app","dataServicesGrouped":{"router":[],"import":[{"configuration":{"contents":{}},"type":"import","sourcePlugin":"org.zowe.zlux.sample.angular","sourceName":"hello","localName":"hello"}],"node":[],"proxy":[],"external":[]}}

etc.

Client presentation: ZLUX: unknown resource requested

Proposed behavior:

Problem is logged, offending plugin(s) do not finish loading, or are removed if they are already loaded.
Additional NOTE: If the server cannot come "all the way up" it should exit, rather than stop partway.

Add static code analysis

As part of CII Badge requirement:

At least one static code analysis tool (beyond compiler warnings and "safe" language modes) MUST be applied to any proposed major production release of the software before its release, if there is at least one FLOSS tool that implements this criterion in the selected language. [static_analysis]
A static code analysis tool examines the software code (as source code, intermediate code, or executable) without executing it with specific inputs. For purposes of this criterion, compiler warnings and "safe" language modes do not count as static code analysis tools (these typically avoid deep analysis because speed is vital). Some static analysis tools focus on detecting generic defects, others focus on finding specific kinds of defects (such as vulnerabilities), and some do a combination. Examples of such static code analysis tools include cppcheck (C, C++), clang static analyzer (C, C++), SpotBugs (Java), FindBugs (Java) (including FindSecurityBugs), PMD (Java), Brakeman (Ruby on Rails), lintr (R), goodpractice (R), Coverity Quality Analyzer, SonarQube, Codacy, and HP Enterprise Fortify Static Code Analyzer. Larger lists of tools can be found in places such as the Wikipedia list of tools for static code analysis, OWASP information on static code analysis, NIST list of source code security analyzers, and Wheeler's list of static analysis tools. The SWAMP is a no-cost platform for assessing vulnerabilities in software using a variety of tools. If there are no FLOSS static analysis tools available for the implementation language(s) used, select 'N/A'.

It is SUGGESTED that at least one of the static analysis tools used for the static_analysis criterion include rules or approaches to look for common vulnerabilities in the analyzed language or environment. [static_analysis_common_vulnerabilities]
Static analysis tools that are specifically designed to look for common vulnerabilities are more likely to find them. That said, using any static tools will typically help find some problems, so we are suggesting but not requiring this for the 'passing' level badge.

All medium and high severity exploitable vulnerabilities discovered with static code analysis MUST be fixed in a timely way after they are confirmed. [static_analysis_fixed]

It is SUGGESTED that static source code analysis occur on every commit or at least daily. [static_analysis_often]

Navigator pane not sizeable

The navigator pane cannot be resized (Mac w/ Chrome) which leads to some ugly presentation (see attached screenshot) when dataset names are long. The panes should be resizeable so that both the navigator and the editor can be enlarged. A nice feature would be, if the navigator can be collapsed to leave the rest of the window for the editor.

Verify and enable code linter

As part of CII Badge requirement:

The project MUST enable one or more compiler warning flags, a "safe" language mode, or use a separate "linter" tool to look for code quality errors or common simple mistakes, if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can implement this criterion in the selected language. [warnings]
Examples of compiler warning flags include gcc/clang "-Wall". Examples of a "safe" language mode include JavaScript "use strict" and perl5's "use warnings". A separate "linter" tool is simply a tool that examines the source code to look for code quality errors or common simple mistakes. These are typically enabled within the source code or build instructions.

Add dynamic code analysis

As part of CII Badge requirement:

It is SUGGESTED that at least one dynamic analysis tool be applied to any proposed major production release of the software before its release. [dynamic_analysis]
A dynamic analysis tool examines the software by executing it with specific inputs. For example, the project MAY use a fuzzing tool (e.g., American Fuzzy Lop) or a web application scanner (e.g., OWASP ZAP or w3af). In some cases the OSS-Fuzz project may be willing to apply fuzz testing to your project. For purposes of this criterion the dynamic analysis tool needs to vary the inputs in some way to look for various kinds of problems or be an automated test suite with at least 80% branch coverage. The Wikipedia page on dynamic analysis and the OWASP page on fuzzing identify some dynamic analysis tools. The analysis tool(s) MAY be focused on looking for security vulnerabilities, but this is not required.

It is SUGGESTED that if the software produced by the project includes software written using a memory-unsafe language (e.g., C or C++), then at least one dynamic tool (e.g., a fuzzer or web application scanner) be routinely used in combination with a mechanism to detect memory safety problems such as buffer overwrites. If the project does not produce software written in a memory-unsafe language, choose "not applicable" (N/A). [dynamic_analysis_unsafe]

It is SUGGESTED that the software produced by the project include many run-time assertions that are checked during dynamic analysis. [dynamic_analysis_enable_assertions]

All medium and high severity exploitable vulnerabilities discovered with dynamic code analysis MUST be fixed in a timely way after they are confirmed. [dynamic_analysis_fixed]

Acceptance criteria: user is aware that interruption has occurred - notification should be issued via notification manager, and modal popup that uses Error Widget should be seen on App. Console log should also indicate that a failure occurred
Acceptance criteria: notification, modal error widget, and console log all needs to be informative about the error to the point that the user or support can understand what happened.
Acceptance criteria: notification should occur as a result of being unable to do a user-requested action on the local mainframe or remote host.

User control over file encoding

As a mainframe user, I want to control the encoding when sending & receiving data, so that I get data that is useful on both workstation & mainframe.

Acceptance criteria: ability to choose encoding for download & upload. For download from mainframe to workstation, utf8 or binary(no encoding change) are the minimum required choices. For workstation to mainframe, the content can either be transferred as binary (no encoding change), or you can choose to have a conversion to utf8, ebcdic-1047, ebcdic-931, or iso-8859-1.
Acceptance criteria: ability to choose whether to tag on upload to mainframe, or not. Default=yes
Acceptance criteria: download from mainframe is assumed ebcdic unless content is tagged
Nice to have: be able to view the tagged encoding of a file on the mainframe as a detail column

File Transfer App

FTP application refactoring

What this Epic Is:

Support secure file and dataset transfer between zOS & your PC
Act like FTP, but does not have to be FTP (could be HTTP)
You should be able to list files, datasets and Directories on the zOS system
Queue up downloads of these files and datasets to your PC
Browse your PC to upload files as files or datasets
Set the transfer mode to either char set conversion or binary
One secure protocol that the team will decide
The UI should follow Craig's mockup - contact @NolanRogers for the Mock Up
Browsers that Zowe supports can be found on the Zowe.org website
https://zowe.github.io/docs-site/v1-2-x/user-guide/systemrequirements.html#common-system-requirements

What this Epic isn't:

Would be great, but not required for this Epic:

Create a convenient UI for performing an XMIT on datasets
Convenient UI for creating a PAX or TAR for files
Maybe DropBox and WindowsFS, too: copy your content to/from dropbox to Z
Be able to change file permissions like chmod in Unix
These could lead to future Epics.
