test: compute list of expected globals from ESLint config file by aduh95 · Pull Request #42056 · nodejs/node

aduh95 · 2022-02-19T19:04:02Z

We don't want to rely on mutable globals for core modules. Instead of
maintaining a separate list of known globals in our test files, parse
the ESLint config to ensure all globals are restricted in the lib/
directory.

All globals must be in the allow list. Previously, only enumerable globals were verified.
This now to verify globals using their name rather than their value. This avoids triggering warnings for globals that are getters with an experimental or deprecation warning (e.g. fetch). It also solves the case where there are two global variables referencing the same object (e.g. global and globalThis).
For convenience and backward compatibility, it's still possible to pass the value of the global rather than its name so current tests can still pass.

@targos This may have consequences for V8 updates (if the new V8 version ships with new globals).

Does this need to be a separate file? Should it be inlined so that people don't think it's something they can/should include themselves in their own tests?

We need to synchronously read and parse lib/.eslintrc.yaml line-by-line for this to work correctly.

I think this is going to break jstest (and targets such as test-only) for builds from the source tar ball as we strip out anything related to linting (e.g. lib/.eslintrc.yaml) from those: #5618
node/Makefile

-$(TARBALL): release-only doc-only
+$(TARBALL): release-only doc-only test/common/knownGlobals.json


This target will also probably need to copy in the generated test/common/knownGlobals.json as the tarball is prepared in $(TARNAME)/ from a fresh git checkout-index.

What's the reason for using Python to generate the file?

aduh95 · 2022-03-02T10:42:57Z

What's the reason for using Python to generate the file?

Because the tarball action doesn't have any available node.

targos · 2022-03-02T10:46:03Z

Don't GitHub runners all have node available by default?

aduh95 · 2022-03-02T11:04:12Z

Don't GitHub runners all have node available by default?

Maybe it was too old to work? I don't exactly remember tbh. Using Python as also the upside of being already integrated in the test suite. Is there a reason not to use Python?

targos · 2022-03-02T11:07:10Z

I hope that one day, Python won't be required anymore to work on node, so adding things that rely on it doesn't help.
I'm not blocking this though, just wanted to understand how you came to using it.

aduh95 · 2022-03-02T11:16:24Z

OK gotcha! Hopefully this won't be too much of a burden to port this to whatever replacement we find – it could be a sed script if it wasn't for Windows support.
Do you have an opinion on what this PR is trying to do?

targos · 2022-03-02T12:10:51Z

 const tmpdir = require('../common/tmpdir');
 tmpdir.refresh();

+common.allowGlobals('require', '_', '_error', ...require('module').builtinModules);


Maybe add common.allowReplGlobals() or similar to avoid repetition?

targos · 2022-03-02T12:11:48Z

I'm ok with the bullet points in your OP, and the changes to test/ LGTM. I don't feel comfortable reviewing the other changes.

RaisinTen · 2022-03-02T15:16:39Z

If we avoid Python and generate the JSON in JS, it would be convenient to do it without creating any additional files which would address #42056 (comment) but I don't know how much time it would add overall when we run all the tests.
