qx build fails

[pcrespov]

qx compile --target=build in our container is producing an output with errors

how-to-reproduce

cd osparc-simcore/web/server/client
docker-compose build --no-cache
docker-compose run qx compile --target=build

• Serve now build-output folder (if your browser cannot open files, then use e.g. python3 -m http.server 8080)
• in browser add user, password and click logiin ... then error (see above)

These are images with qx inside built at different times (see created date)

~ $ docker image ls --filter 'reference=*client*'

I created a test.sh script to spit out the versions of the compiler and sdk

#!/bin/bash
echo qooxdoo-compiler: $(qx --help 2>&1 >/dev/null | grep  Versions | cut -c28-)
echo qooxdoo-sdk     : $(cat ${QOOXDOO_PATH}/version.txt)
echo http-server     : $(npm -g info http-server version)

et voila

~ $ docker run -it --entrypoint ./test.sh -v $(pwd):/home/scu/client client_qx:build
qooxdoo-compiler: v0.2.14
qooxdoo-sdk : 6.0.0-alpha
http-server : 0.11.1
~ $ docker run -it --entrypoint ./test.sh -v $(pwd):/home/scu/client services_webclient:build
qooxdoo-compiler: v0.2.14
qooxdoo-sdk : 6.0.0-alpha
http-server : 0.11.1
~ $ docker run -it --entrypoint ./test.sh -v $(pwd):/home/scu/client services_webclient:dev
qooxdoo-compiler: v0.2.14
qooxdoo-sdk : 6.0.0-alpha
http-server : 0.11.1
~ $ docker run -it --entrypoint ./test.sh -v $(pwd):/home/scu/client client_qx:development
qooxdoo-compiler: v0.2.13
qooxdoo-sdk : 6.0.0-alpha
http-server : 0.11.1

version pairs sdk-compiler differ!! Could you please have a look at the magic in the client/Dockefile

will take a look

the problem is that it seems that iconfonts break in the compiled version of the application

[oetiker]

I have managed to reproduce the problem with https://github.com/ITISFoundation/qx-iconfont-fontawesome5

[oetiker]

further debugging shows that Image.js in the qx framework seems to behave differently when compiled in build mode ... not handling icon fonts as expected

[oetiker]

the problem is NOT related to the qx-compiler release ... the build version also fails when generated with qx compiler 0.2.13

[oetiker]

the problem is that build mode breaks if else structures in Image.js ... fixed by https://github.com/qooxdoo/qooxdoo/pull/9573

further investigation into the root cause is required https://github.com/qooxdoo/qooxdoo-compiler/issues/207

$ docker run -it --entrypoint /bin/sh itisfoundation/client_qx:development
$ npm show babel version
6.23.0
$ npm show babel-cli version
6.23.0

$ docker run -it --entrypoint /bin/sh itisfoundation/client_qx:build
$  npm show babel version
6.23.0

They have the same babel version! I pushed both into dockerhub. You can type the commands above and will be pulled into your computer just in case you want to explore for more details.

a new version of qxcompiler has been published with shrinkwrap now ... so by reinstalling qxcompiler all should be well.
