[21:15] <waigani> morning all
[21:19] <waigani> simple review if anyone's interested: https://github.com/juju/juju/pull/91
[21:33] <menn0> waigani: mornin'. looking at that PR now.
[21:33] <waigani> menn0: sweet, thanks. I suspect I may have to add more tests - just started with the basic one.
[21:39] <menn0> waigani: is the description for the PR correct? You say this implements the client side of the UserInfo but this looks to be the server side.
[21:40] <menn0> waigani: ignore me...
[21:40] <menn0> waigani: I'm tired. You're right.
[21:41] <waigani> menn0: hehe, I was just composing my explanation
[21:41] <thumper> I don't particularly like the "todo, not tested" bits
[21:41] <menn0> I got my directory paths and file names mixed up
[21:41] <thumper> can we not work out how to test it?
[21:42] <menn0> that was going to be my first review comment... you should be able to mock out the API call to test the error case
[21:42] <waigani> thumper: okay, there are other places in the API with the same todo - I was being lazy and followed suit
[21:48] <menn0> waigani, thumper: I've just commented with a suggestion on how to do this.
[21:50] <waigani> menn0: yay thanks. I'll plow through these emails asap and get onto it.
[21:56] <menn0> waigani: I've added a few more comments and I'm done for now.
[21:56] <waigani> menn0: Great. Thank you!
[22:34] <thumper> argh...
[22:34] <thumper> my head hurts
[22:34] <thumper> although not boxing this time
[22:34] <thumper> lots of thinking around identities and users
[22:39] <waigani> thumper: and lack of wine?
[22:39] <thumper> not yet
[22:39] <thumper> had a drink last night
[22:39] <thumper> but it will be the last for a while
[22:39] <waigani> the rest of us will have to drink more to put up with you!
[22:40] <waigani> I'm not sure how to mock out a method, without creating a constructor for the object/struct
[22:41] <waigani> oh, haha - I just spotted NewUserManagerAPI, looks like a constructor
[22:41] <waigani> ignore me
[22:56] <waigani> thumper, menn0: I've made the server side UserInfo mockable. How do I mock it out from the client side? It is called over the wire and initialized separately from the client.
[22:56] <thumper> waigani: you shouldn't do it that way
[22:56] <waigani> oh
[22:56] <thumper> you should mock out the client's user manager
[22:56] <thumper> not the server side
[22:57] <waigani> back to the drawing board
[22:57] <thumper> at least I think...
[22:57] <thumper> are there examples of this anywhere?
[22:57] <thumper> I have vague recollections of this before
[22:58] <waigani> thumper: i get what you're saying, mock out the server endpoint on the client side
[22:58] <thumper> yeah
[22:58] <waigani> I'll give it another go after standup
[22:59] <thumper> api/client_test.go line 75
[22:59] <waigani> thumper: sweet, thanks
[22:59] <menn0> waigani, thumper: in this case it's really easy isn't it? All calls are made through a single standalone function (call()) so patch that function for tests where you'd like to create an error condition.
[22:59] <thumper> not sure how helpful it'll be
[22:59] <thumper> menn0: that seems the obvious place...

[23:20] <waigani> connection dropped, we were done right?
[23:22] <JoshStrobl> Any feedback from Juju documenters? https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/juju-dev/2014-June/002708.html
[23:23] <menn0> waigani: yep, we were done
[23:45] <thumper> JoshStrobl: we agree it needs to be updated :-)
[23:49] <menn0> bikeshedding required! when a relation hook fails should the agent info in the status output look like:
[23:49] <menn0> a) hook failed: some-relation-changed for mysql:server
[23:49] <menn0> b) hook failed: some-relation-changed with mysql:server
[23:49] <menn0> c) hook failed: some-relation-changed for wordpress:mysql to mysql:server
[23:49] <menn0> (if the error was being reported for the wordpress charm)
[23:50] <menn0> currently we get something like: hook failed: some-relation-changed
[23:50] <waigani> c
[23:50] <waigani> menn0: call is a method of Client struct. If I was to make the method mockable, I'd have to add a constructor to the struct.
[23:51] <menn0> waigani: I'm talking about the call function at usermanager/client.go:21
[23:52] <waigani> menn0: oooohhh
[23:52] <menn0> thumper: any thoughts on the colour of the bike shed?
[23:55] <menn0> waigani: to patch you'll probably need to introduce another level of indirection (i.e. a standalone function which takes st and the other args that call() takes.
[23:56] <waigani> menn0: yep, I just missed the call func in usermanager - I went looking further up the tree in api/client
[23:58] <menn0> davecheney: any preference on how relation hook failures should be displayed in status output?
