What does this MR do and why?

This is the fourth MR in a series of changes that will change Service Desk issues list from haml file to a Vue app.

EE search tokens ⬅

🚫

This MR covers:

  • create EE version of the Service Desk List app
  • define tokens available for EE in Service Desk listing
  • fetch data necessary for filtering (iterations)

I was originally planning on putting all searching functionality in one MR, but seeing how quickly the diff grew, I decided to split it up even further.

Screenshots or screen recordings

Screenshots are required for UI changes, and strongly recommended for all other merge requests.

How to set up and validate locally

Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.

SERVICE DESK SETUP

  1. Setup a service desk on your GDK: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit/-/blob/main/doc/howto/service_desk_mail_room.md
  2. Send an email to your Service Desk, so you have something to display on the list.

ALTERNATIVE SETUP

  1. You can omit Service Desk setup and force an already existing issue to become a SD issue. Open the rails console: rails c
  2. Use these commands. Change 7 to the project id that matches the one you want to use for testing:
email = 'your-email@gitlab.com'
project = Project.find 7
issue = project.issues.last
issue.update!(service_desk_reply_to: email, author: User.support_bot)
IssueEmailParticipant.create!(issue: issue, email: email)

  1. In rails console enable the feature flag

    Feature.enable(:service_desk_vue_list)
Feature.enable(:frontend_caching)

  2. Visit the project that has Service Desk setup

  3. In the main navigation click Monitor, than Service Desk.

  4. Click within the search bar and start choosing tokens. You should be able to see users, labels, milestones, releases that you have setup on your GDK, along with available emojis.

FYI There is a known problem that Issues in the main navigation highlight when you are on Service Desk view.
