build(deps): replace ipfs-http-client with kubo-rpc-client
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
- Replace deprecated ipfs-http-client with kubo-rpc-client.
- kubo-rpc-client must be imported dynamically since it's ESM-only and we
    still use CJS.

---------------------------

build(typescript): project-wide fixes to allow us to use ESM-only deps

Apologies for the huge diff, this can't be broken down to smaller changes
that would still compile because of cross-package dependencies.

I realize that this change is not exactly the optimal solution, but
it is probably a step in the right direction.
If I somehow found the time to submit pull requests to the libraries
that I needed to fork and re-publish (see details below) and then get
the changes onto the upstream and get them released as the official
packages, then we could (in theory) arrive at a solution that is the
recommended way of fixing these problems (apart from going full ESM-only)

This work stands on the shoulders of the previous commits from @outSH
and takes a slightly different direction compared to what we've been
talking about earlier on account of the problem that the eval-import
workaround causes crashes in Jest.

Based on the above I went through the following adventures:
1. I migrated the build system of kubo-rpc-client myself so that it
correctly exports CJS and ESM and typings for both of those as well,
I put that code on my fork [1] and then published it onto npm as well [2]
After this, I was hoping that now we could just import the package in
our CJS code without issues, but what really happened is that instead of
crashing at the require call that pull in kubo itself, it started crashing
deeper in the require stack where kubo itself was requiring it's own
ESM only dependencies (of which there seem to be at least 10 or 15).
At this point I realized that me migrating and self-publishing all of
these additional packages might not be worth the effort and started looking
for something easier.
2. I gave dynamic imports + moduleResultion=Node16 as my next attempt to
get our build back to working order. With this, the kubo-rpc-client
can now be imported dynamically without issues in packages that declare
themselves as resolving modules as "Node16" in their tsconfig.json
Other issues here were encountered because not all of our ESM only packages
are used in a way that they can be imported dynamically (for example
if their types are part of our own types or are being re-exported).
The two libraries with this problem were `run-time-error` and
`socket.io-client` for both of which I ended up going through the same
treatment as for kubo-rpc-client above (but this time my effort wasn't)
in vain. They work and so I did some search and replace in the entire
codebase to use these re-published packages with the correct types:
[3] [4] [5] [6]
3. After this the project build was working, but Jest was still failing with
compiler errors which I determined to happen because it uses the
root tsconfig.json file for it's internal TS compilation and that root
tsconfig.json file was not setting module resolution to Node16.
4. After fixing that the final hurdle (hopefully) was to ensure that jest gets
execued with the custom node option as below:
NODE_OPTIONS=--experimental-vm-modules yarn jest

[1] https://github.com/petermetz/js-kubo-rpc-client-esm-cjs
[2] https://www.npmjs.com/package/kubo-rpc-client-esm-cjs

[3] https://github.com/petermetz/socket.io-client
[4] https://www.npmjs.com/package/socket.io-client-fixed-types
[5] https://github.com/petermetz/RuntimeError
[6] https://www.npmjs.com/package/run-time-error-cjs

Huge thanks for https://arethetypeswrong.github.io/ a tool I used
extensively to create the fixes for the libraries above.

One more thing that I tried just to collect more data points was to
set the moduleResultion project-wide to Node16 via setting it
in the root tsconfig.base.json but this broke the compiler itself,
as in, there is a bug in the Typescript compiler in v4.x as seen here:
microsoft/TypeScript#51221
So this is one more reason for us to upgrade to 5.x as soon as possible.

I also needed to add "run-time-error" to the root package.json as a
dependency because it was accidentally providing that to some sub-packages
and when we moved to "run-time-error-cjs" the tests that install
plugins from npm started failing (because those releases are still
using "run-time-error" and not "run-time-error-cjs")
