We observe a lot of deprecation warnings using the
"deprecated_waffle_utils" custom attribute. To make it easier to track
these items, we add the waffle flag/namespace name to the custom
attribute.
Tests were referring to internal implementation
details of edx-django-utils. This comment removes
those references to free the library up to be
refactored.
ARCHBOM-1584
When module_name is None, the call to edx-django-utils'
get_code_owner_from_module crashes. So we avoid making that call when
the module_name is None, which sometimes happens (for good reasons or
not, but it's valid behaviour).
- Add ADR for the extraction of waffle_utils to
edx-toggles to reuse across IDAs.
- Add ADR for temporarily leaving CourseWaffleFlag
in edx-platform in order to simplify extraction.
- Add ADR for simplifying the interface for
WaffleFlag and WaffleSwitch by removing the
Namespace classes.

This changes:
- `WAFFLE_FLAG_CUSTOM_METRICS`
- `WaffleFlagNamespace._set_waffle_flag_metric`
- `_get_waffle_flag_custom_metrics_set` and some other unreferenced
internals
This uses the new names introduced in edx-django-utils
3.8.0 (edx/edx-django-utils#59), which we're already using, as
well as updating a few other locations where we incorrectly refer
to New Relic custom metrics instead of custom attributes.
Includes a couple of unrelated lint fixes in a file I modified.
Instead of going up the stacktrace to find the module names of waffle
flags and switches, we manually pass the module __name__ whenever the
flag is created. This is similar to `logging.getLogger(__name__)`
standard behaviour.
As the waffle classes are used outside of edx-platform, we make the new
module_name argument an optional keyword argument. This will change once
we pull waffle_utils outside of edx-platform.
Note that the module name is normally only required to view the list of
existing waffle flags and switches. The module name should not be
necessary to verify if a flag is enabled. Thus, maybe it would make
sense to create a `add` class methor similar to:
class WaffleFlag:
@classmethod
def add(cls, namespace, flag, module):
instance = cls(namespace, flag)
cls._class_instances.add((instance, module))
Adds the following additions to the toggle state endpoint:
- course override data from CourseWaffleFlag.
- computed_status for waffle flags (accounting for
course overrides when applicable), and waffle switches.
Note: the waffle switch computed_status will make more
sense when we include WaffleSwitch instances that don't
have any data in the database.

This effectively evaluates the flag outside of the context of a course.
This was previously available through `.is_enabled_without_course_context`,
which has been removed in favor of simply `is_enabled()`.
This was done to make the CourseWaffleFlag interface more uniform with
that of WaffleFlag and ExperimentWaffleFlag and eliminate unecessary
branching when handling CourseWaffleFlags.
For the Courseware MFE rollout experiment, we want users'
default buckets to be consistent across course runs.
ExperimentWaffleFlag advised that this could be done
by calling `.is_enabled(...)` without a course_key argument;
however, doing so breaks when uing the main_flag.BUCKET_NUM
scheme to apply bucket rules for a specific set of users
or courses.
This commit explicitly adds course-unaware-bucketing via
a new kwarg to ExperimentWaffleFlag.__init__ method.
Furthermore, it fixes ExperimentWaffleFlag.is_enabled(course_key=None)
to work as advertised, by means of calling
.is_enabled_without_course_context on its subordinate flags.

This is Phase 2 if a rollout started here:
https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/pull/24392
When a flag is being used without a request, we will
return True if the flag's everyone status is set to
True.
The current implementation is to use flag_undefined_default,
which is deprecated and we are trying to remove it.
ARCHBOM-1331
Fix bug in metric temp_flag_no_request_default_match.
Metric renamed to temp_flag_no_request_default_match_2
to ensure we are looking at the right data.
This extends Phase 1 of the rollout, as documented in:
https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/pull/24392
ARCHBOM-1331
This is Phase 1 of a 2 part rollout.
Here, we want to ensure that checking if the waffle flag
is set to active for everyone would provide the same value
as the current implementation for calls that have no request.
The current implementation is to use flag_undefined_default,
which is deprecated and we are trying to remove.
We are adding a custom metric to see if they match in
Production. If all goes well, in Phase 2 we will switch to
this new approach.
ARCHBOM-1331
In order to remove the deprecated flag_undefined_default=True
argument, this commit updates the following flags to always be
enabled using a new temporary class:
- course_experience.course_outline_page
- course_experience.unified_course_tab
Adds a temporary setting `USE_DEFAULT_TRUE_NAMESPACE`,
to enable a monitored rollout of this change.
TNL-7061 is the ticket where these flags will actually be
removed. This requires more careful work including removing
all dead code, and potentially refactoring tests that were
testing shared functionality, but only when the flag was
False.
ARCHBOM-1316
- update ADR to provide more alternatives for updating
the default value of a flag.
- add a `flag_` prefix to the flag metrics
- add module-level note about flag metrics
- add NewRelic query example and warning
- fix typo in toggle annotation
