# wfe-yaml
|
|
|
|
YAML workflow definitions for WFE.
|
|
|
|
## What it does
|
|
|
|
`wfe-yaml` lets you define workflows in YAML instead of Rust code. It parses YAML files, validates the schema, interpolates variables, compiles the result into `WorkflowDefinition` + step factories, and hands them to the WFE host. Ships with a shell executor and an optional sandboxed Deno executor for running JavaScript/TypeScript steps.
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
Define a workflow in YAML:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
workflow:
|
|
id: deploy
|
|
version: 1
|
|
steps:
|
|
- name: build
|
|
type: shell
|
|
config:
|
|
run: cargo build --release
|
|
timeout: 5m
|
|
|
|
- name: test
|
|
type: shell
|
|
config:
|
|
run: cargo test
|
|
env:
|
|
RUST_LOG: info
|
|
|
|
- name: notify
|
|
type: deno
|
|
config:
|
|
script: |
|
|
const result = Wfe.getData("build.stdout");
|
|
Wfe.setOutput("status", "deployed");
|
|
permissions:
|
|
net: ["https://hooks.slack.com"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Load and register it:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use std::collections::HashMap;
|
|
use std::path::Path;
|
|
|
|
let config = HashMap::new();
|
|
let compiled = wfe_yaml::load_workflow(Path::new("deploy.yaml"), &config)?;
|
|
|
|
// Register with the host.
|
|
host.register_workflow_definition(compiled.definition).await;
|
|
for (key, factory) in compiled.step_factories {
|
|
host.register_step_factory(&key, factory).await;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Variable interpolation
|
|
|
|
Use `${{ var.name }}` syntax in YAML. Variables are resolved from the config map passed to `load_workflow`:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
let mut config = HashMap::new();
|
|
config.insert("env".into(), serde_json::json!("production"));
|
|
|
|
let compiled = wfe_yaml::load_workflow_from_str(&yaml_str, &config)?;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
| Type | Description |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `load_workflow()` | Load from a file path with variable interpolation. |
|
|
| `load_workflow_from_str()` | Load from a YAML string with variable interpolation. |
|
|
| `CompiledWorkflow` | Contains a `WorkflowDefinition` and a `Vec<(String, StepFactory)>` ready for host registration. |
|
|
| `YamlWorkflow` | Top-level YAML schema (`workflow:` key). |
|
|
| `WorkflowSpec` | Workflow definition: id, version, description, error behavior, steps. |
|
|
| `YamlStep` | Step definition: name, type, config, inputs/outputs, parallel children, error handling hooks (`on_success`, `on_failure`, `ensure`). |
|
|
| `ShellStep` | Executes shell commands via `tokio::process::Command`. Captures stdout/stderr, parses `##wfe[output name=value]` directives. |
|
|
| `DenoStep` | Executes JS/TS in an embedded Deno runtime with configurable permissions. |
|
|
|
|
### Shell step features
|
|
|
|
- Configurable shell (defaults to `sh`)
|
|
- Workflow data injected as `UPPER_CASE` environment variables
|
|
- Custom env vars via `config.env`
|
|
- Working directory override
|
|
- Timeout support
|
|
- Structured output via `##wfe[output name=value]` lines in stdout
|
|
|
|
### Deno step features
|
|
|
|
- Inline `script` or external `file` source
|
|
- Automatic module evaluation for `import`/`export`/`await` syntax
|
|
- Granular permissions: `net`, `read`, `write`, `env`, `run`, `dynamic_import`
|
|
- `Wfe.getData()` / `Wfe.setOutput()` host bindings
|
|
- V8-level timeout enforcement (catches infinite loops)
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
| Feature | Description |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `deno` | Enables the Deno JavaScript/TypeScript executor. Pulls in `deno_core`, `deno_error`, `url`, `reqwest`. Off by default. |
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Core tests (shell executor)
|
|
cargo test -p wfe-yaml
|
|
|
|
# With Deno executor
|
|
cargo test -p wfe-yaml --features deno
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
No external services required. Deno tests need the `deno` feature flag.
