Just want to update that we should be good to go on this by Monday. The final changes to support the compatibility layers are currently riding the train.

@akosiaris -- can we plan to take action on this on Monday from the ServiceOps side? Is there anything else y'all need beforehand?

Compatibility changes are live. Rerouting can be performed whenever ServiceOps is able.

That's a bit short of a timeline, I don't think we 'll be ready on Monday (we haven't even dug deep into what's needed from our side). But we might be able to target the week of Oct 7th, depending on what exactly we figure out we need to do. I 'll sync internally in the team and let you know.

No worries. Are you comfortable with us posting Oct 17 as an updated target delivery in our hypothesis status?

Hey @akosiaris -- were you able to review this ticket with your team? Are we good targeting next week?

Hey @akosiaris -- just following up again on the timeline here. Do you have any updates?

Hi,

I just had enough time to review this. This can't be implemented in the infrastructure that serviceops maintains but rather the CDN/Edge. Adding Traffic. I 'll also try to post a patch, but I 'll be needing traffic's OK. I 'll also post a patch but I think that implementing such a logic at the CDN/Edge layer is exposing too much information to the it. If done, it must be temporary and reverted at a very clearly agreed date and not left lingering.

@HCoplin-WMF, I had not foreseen this complication, this will take longer than originally anticipated.

After discussing with @hnowlan, I think I was wrong. We already have some infrastructure (in the form of lua scripts for ATS) that was built with Traffic to allow easier configuration of the routing and mappings of /api/rest_v1/ that I wasn't aware of. I 'll untag Traffic, I don't think they are needed for this one. I 've already pushed and merged a patch to configure the rest-gateway to do the mapping.

@HCoplin-WMF The internal mappings on rest-gateway work, all that's left is merging https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/1080232 and external traffic will move from being routed to restbase to being routed, via rest-gateway, to /w/script.php. It looks like, something major happening aside, we will be able after all to meet the Oct 17th date. Is there some communication or other action that you 'd like to take before the change is merged and deployed? Or should we just deploy it on that date?

Looking at it today, it looks much better indeed. The header is live and working.

It is okay for the rest.php version to omit the { items: [ … ] } wrapper? I don't know what the impliction of this is, maybe RESTBase clients already have to support it without the wrapper for other reasons. I'm just comparing the two and noticed the difference.

No it's not. I... simpley missed that. Good catch, thank you!

Thank you @Krinkle ! That's an embarrassing oversight.

I've posted a fix, which we could backport. But given that there's no huge urgency, I suggest we let the change ride next week's train and activate the rerouting on or after Oct. 28th.

Sorry for the last minute timeline changes, @akosiaris

Edit: to be clear, my "embarrassing oversight" comment was only directed at myself, as the author of this task. I even posted links to the endpoints in question without noticing the discrepancy, sigh.

Fine by me. I 'll have very limited availability that week, but a Service Ops team member should be able to pick this up. Otherwise, I 'll be merging the week after that.

The fix for the items wrapper has ridden the train and is live on production wikis. MediaWiki Interfaces is good for the rerouting to proceed at Service Ops' convenience.

@akosiaris The "after" output you post above would be the output without RESTbase compat mode (not the incomplete compat mode output). This generates the correct result:

gives:

Note that the check for the header value got stricter at some point - x-restbase-compat: 1 used to work, but it no longer does. It has to be x-restbase-compat: true.

My mistake. I missed that part. I assume that we are OK with clients that don't pass x-restbase-compat: true to receive the output I pasted above in the "after" section then. Which means I should re-revert this and proceed as planned. If not, please do tell me to hold off.

Clients shouldn't have to send the header, the gateway should add it when forwarding the request...

Summarizing from a discussion on IRC with @daniel I missed the part about

All forwarded calls should include a x-restbase-compat header with a value of 'true'. This instructs the MW REST endpoints to return RESTbase-compatible data.

I 'll have to look into how to implement that in the rest-gateway, I 'll take a step back and figure that one out before proceeding with the re-reverted change.

Yes, this is fine. The TID value designed as a transparent token. It can be used as a path parameter in future request, but that parameter has already been ignored for several months now.

Sounds good. I'll give the revert ~20 more minutes to roll out fully and report back to see if things are fixed.

This change was supposed to be a clean reroute, with 0 impact to all API users.

This is a reasonable goal, but I don't think it justfies the lack of communication. Shit happens, just let us know what to expect ahead of time. For example, if this was deployed to test.wikipedia.org first, our automated test suite would've run against it and caught it. Redirecting a big chunk of RESTBase over to rest.php is genuinely a big deal (as evidenced by how long it took to get here!!) and should be something people are shouting from the rooftops in celebration, not complaining about.

I also want to recognize and apologize for the slight delay in response and action since you flagged. It is election day in the US, so our engineers who are normally responding this time of day are out voting!

Makes sense, hopefully we can dig into this properly in the incident report (e.g. should U.S. election day be a no deploy day given low availability).

Bill correctly identified the root cause: the core endpoitn expects redirect=no (for consistency with index.php), while RESTbase expected redirect=false. We can just accept both, see https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/1087568.

Before rolling out the switch again, it might be a good idea to survey all query parameters that are accepted for compatibility, if that hasn't been done already.

Moreover: do we have a set of urls that we've tested to work? It might be useful for us so that we can prepare an httpbb test suite to run before and after switching one host for validating the change.

Yes, I just double-checked - the only other supported query parameter is stash, which can be true or false.

That would be nice, but it wouldn't have caught the problem we just encoutnered either - I wouldn't have thought to check for redirect=false. Known good cases are easy to cover, unknown bad cases are easy to miss...

Also, we may encounter problems that are more subtle - etag handling or cache control headers or CORS or whatnot. I checked all the stuff that I could think of a while ago, see https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10FaxUcD6y4Xjss21HfXUwVsH98RCWO7Bs9hhZuDTfFg/edit?pli=1&gid=0#gid=0.

That all makes sense, but also now seems like the perfect time to encode a bunch of this lost-then-rediscovered knowledge into httpbb rules.

This is a haunted graveyard but it doesn't have to remain so.

AFAIK redirect=false was always the canonical way to pass it (c.f. T130757#2184827). And like I said, this is all in the mwbot-rs test suite. Can you deploy to test.wikipedia.org first this time and give us like a week?

Yes, it is doable, although not an exception we 'd like to carry for a prolonged period of time. A week sounds fine though.

Please could someone propose some wording/links for a Tech News entry? Please also confirm whether it should be in the upcoming edition (Frozen on Friday, sent on Monday), or the edition after that. Thanks.

@Quiddity has a point here, lack of sufficient communication has backfired once already, it's prudent to over communicate this time around to avoid similar issues.

I think the exact wording, as well as timing, is up to MW-Interfaces-Team, so I 'll refrain from suggesting one, but @HCoplin-WMF, this is probably a good opportunity!

Confirming that we are including a callout for this work in this week's Tech News. Thanks for the nudge @akosiaris and @Quiddity !

Change #1087568 merged by jenkins-bot:

[mediawiki/core@master] REST: Allow page endpoint "redirect" parameter to have value "false".

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/1087568

For the record, this got sent out in https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/News/2024/46

The exact wording was:

Wikimedia REST API users, such as bot operators and tool maintainers, may be affected by ongoing upgrades. The API will be rerouting some page content endpoints from RESTbase to the newer MediaWiki REST API endpoints. The impacted endpoints include getting page/revision metadata and rendered HTML content. These changes will be available on testwiki later this week, with other projects to follow. This change should not affect existing functionality, but active users of the impacted endpoints should verify behavior on testwiki, and raise any concerns on the related Phabricator ticket.

The redirect parameter fix is now live on all production wikis.

Given that we want rerouting to only test to be temporary, and given that the US Thanksgiving holiday is next week, could/should we plan to do this the week of Dec 2nd?

What timing works for Service Ops? @Legoktm , is there any particular timing that would be more less convenient for you?

Dec 2nd makes sense to me.

Hey there! Please confirm when you've completed the rerouting on the test wiki. I will be sending a corresponding update/call to action on the Wikitech-l distro for folks to start testing once it's officially rerouting.

Related: I met with the RESTbase folks, and we are all aligned on delaying rolling this out to other projects until the new year. We would like to avoid risk related to breaking changes while folks are out for end-of-year holidays. @MSantos and/or I will send out a corresponding timeline update (and follow up testing announcement) via Tech News.

@HCoplin-WMF Hi! Changes are up, pass tests and are reviewed. I 'll be deploying them tomorrow EU morning and monitoring them throughout the day. I 'll be updating this task once we are done and ping the few people that showed an interest in testing in test wiki,

Fabulous! Thank you so much for all the support on this, @akosiaris !
