## Summary Adds `tools/hangar` — a macOS desktop control panel for working on Fleet locally: branch management, `fleet serve` orchestration, log tail, dev MySQL backup/restore, `fleetctl`, GitOps, and `osquery-perf`, all in one window. Built with **Go + [Wails 3](https://v3alpha.wails.io)** — the backend is plain Go (`os/exec`, `syscall`, goroutines) so Fleet engineers can contribute to it; only the desktop shell is Wails. The `internal/` packages are pure and unit-tested. ### History note Hangar started as a Rust/Tauri app. It was ported to Go, and **the Go port is now the canonical `tools/hangar`**. The original Rust/Tauri implementation has been removed from the monorepo (preserved in a standalone repo) — so although this branch's earlier commits add and then replace the Rust app, the net diff is just the Go app at `tools/hangar`. The bundle identifier is `com.fleetdm.fleet-hangar`, matching the original app so existing settings carry over. # Checklist for submitter - [x] Input data is properly validated, `SELECT *` is avoided, SQL injection is prevented (using placeholders for values in statements), JS inline code is prevented especially for url redirects, and untrusted data interpolated into shell scripts/commands is validated against shell metacharacters. - [x] Timeouts are implemented and retries are limited to avoid infinite loops > No `changes/` file: `tools/` is contributor tooling, not a user-visible Fleet change. No DB migrations, no Fleet config settings, no fleetd/orbit changes. ## Testing - [x] Added/updated automated tests (Go unit tests across `internal/`, including a path-traversal regression for backup deletion) - [x] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually ## Test plan - [x] `cd tools/hangar && task dev` launches the app (live-reload) - [x] `task build` produces `bin/fleet-hangar`; `go test ./...` is green - [x] First-run gate discovers a local Fleet clone and runs dep checks - [x] Server tab can run the build chain and start `fleet serve` - [x] Git tab branch search finds an older branch (e.g. a stale `qa-*`) by name <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Introduced Fleet Hangar, a comprehensive desktop application for Fleet development workflows, providing unified controls for server/database management, git operations, configuration, logging, and troubleshooting. * Added database backup management with metadata tracking. * Integrated process orchestration for development services (Docker, ngrok, Python). <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: George Karr <georgekarrv@users.noreply.github.com>
Github Actions
Fleet uses Github Actions for continuous integration (CI). This document describes best practices and at patterns for writing and maintaining Fleet's Github Actions workflows.
Bash
By default, Github Actions sets the shell to bash -e for linux and MacOS runners. To help write
safer bash scripts in run jobs and avoid common issues, override the default by adding the following
to the workflow file
defaults:
run:
# fail-fast using bash -eo pipefail. See https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#exit-codes-and-error-action-preference
shell: bash
By specifying the default shell to bash, some extra flags are set. The option pipefail changes
the behaviour when using the pipe | operator such that if any command in a pipeline fails, that
commands return code will be used a the return code for the whole pipeline. Consider the following
example in test-go.yaml
- name: Run Go Tests
run: |
# omitted ...
make test-go 2>&1 | tee /tmp/gotest.log
If the pipefail option was not set, this job would always succeed because tee would always
return success. This is not the intended behavior. Instead, we want the job to fail if make test-go fails.
Concurrency
Github Action runners are limited. If a lot of workflows are queued, they will wait in pending until a runner becomes available. This has caused issue in the past where workflows take an excessively long time to start. To help with this issue, use the following in workflows
# This allows a subsequently queued workflow run to interrupt previous runs
concurrency:
group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.head_ref || github.run_id}}
cancel-in-progress: true
When a workflow is triggered via a pull request, it will cancel previous running workflows for that
pull request. This is especially useful when changes are pushed to a pull request frequently.
Manually triggered workflows, workflows that run on a schedule, and workflows triggered by pushes to
main are unaffected.
