The http error schema has been changed to simplify the outward facing
API. The `op` and `error` attributes have been dropped because they
confused people. The `error` attribute will likely be readded in some
form in the future, but only as additional context and will not be
required or even suggested for the UI to use.
Errors are now output differently both when they are serialized to JSON
and when they are output as strings. The `op` is no longer used if it is
present. It will only appear as an optional attribute if at all. The
`message` attribute for an error is always output and it will be the
prefix for any nested error. When this is serialized to JSON, the
message is automatically flattened so a nested error such as:
influxdb.Error{
Msg: errors.New("something bad happened"),
Err: io.EOF,
}
This would be written to the message as:
something bad happened: EOF
This matches a developers expectations much more easily as most
programmers assume that wrapping an error will act as a prefix for the
inner error.
This is flattened when written out to HTTP in order to make this logic
immaterial to a frontend developer.
The code is still present and plays an important role in categorizing
the error type. On the other hand, the code will not be output as part
of the message as it commonly plays a redundant and confusing role when
humans read it. The human readable message usually gives more context
and a message like with the code acting as a prefix is generally not
desired. But, the code plays a very important role in helping to
identify categories of errors and so it is very important as part of the
return response.
We have been tracking down odd error messages when writing data and
found the problem to be internal server errors when writing empty
bodies.
I added fairly comprehensive test coverage for /api/v2/write as well
as simplify and clarify the error messages.
I did this with a dumb editor macro, so some comments changed too.
Also rename root package from platform to influxdb.
In interest of minimizing risk, anyone importing the root package has
now aliased it to "platform" so that no changes beyond imports were
necessary in those files.
Lastly, replace the old platform module to local path /dev/null so that
nobody can accidentally reintroduce a platform dependency while
migrating platform code to influxdb.
