This PR adds a number of small improvements to the log fetching to add more stability and prevent silent errors from being dropped.

  1. Stricter response validation in loki-client
  2. Prevent polling while a request is currently pending. This prevent abort signals from being created and ensures that we don't end up in a loop where each poll takes longer than the interval time making a request never finish
  3. Swap signal abortion to an auto-incrementing request numbers. Although this could cause a slight increase on the backend as multiple requests could be in flight at the same time, it will prevent the "context cancelled" noted in the logs in the ticket from being caused by frontend means

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved log query handling for Loki error responses, malformed results, and unsuccessful requests.
    • Prevented outdated log responses from overwriting newer results.
    • Prevented automatic refreshes while logs are loading or additional entries are being fetched.
    • Improved handling of request failures and empty log queries.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for Loki response validation, stale requests, pending pagination, and HTTP 200 error payloads.
  • Accessibility for Testing
    • Added a stable identifier for the “more logs available” control.

Walkthrough

The change validates Loki error and malformed responses, ignores stale log and pagination results, prevents refreshes during pending requests, and adds Cypress coverage for these behaviors.

Changes

Logs request reliability

Layer / File(s) Summary
Loki response validation
web/src/logs.types.ts, web/src/loki-client.ts, web/src/__tests__/loki-client.spec.ts
Adds LokiErrorResponse and validates Loki responses before returning QueryRangeResponse. Tests cover error, malformed, and array responses.
Request ordering and state updates
web/src/hooks/useLogs.ts
Uses request IDs to ignore stale log and pagination responses and errors. New log requests reset pagination loading state.
Refresh guards and end-to-end coverage
web/src/pages/logs-page.tsx, web/src/pages/logs-detail-page.tsx, web/src/pages/logs-dev-page.tsx, web/src/components/virtualized-logs-table.tsx, web/src/test-ids.ts, web/cypress/e2e/integration/logs-page.cy.ts, web/eslint.config.ts
Skips refreshes while log requests are pending. Adds a load-more test identifier, Cypress coverage, and ESLint linter options.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 6b3cb

With automatic refresh enabled, slow histogram requests can be repeatedly cancelled and never display results. This should be fixed before merge.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

No functions found in the changed files to evaluate docstring coverage. Skipping docstring coverage check. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 0 functions across 11 files.

Full details: Stable And Deterministic Test Names

Explanation

PASS — The PR adds only static test titles in Cypress and Jest files, such as “displays a Loki error payload returned with HTTP 200” and “does not refresh while a log request is pending.” No title contains a pod name, timestamp, UUID, node, namespace, IP address, or other dynamic value. The repository has no Ginkgo test definitions; the changed tests use describe/it with literal strings.

Full details: Test Structure And Quality

Explanation

PASS. The custom check applies only to Ginkgo test code. This pull request changes Cypress and TypeScript tests (web/cypress/e2e/integration/logs-page.cy.ts and web/src/__tests__/loki-client.spec.ts); it adds no Ginkgo It, BeforeEach, AfterEach, Eventually, or Consistently blocks. The repository search found no Ginkgo-style calls in Go files, so the listed Ginkgo requirements are not applicable.

Full details: Microshift Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS — The pull request adds Cypress TypeScript tests in web/cypress/e2e/integration/logs-page.cy.ts, not Ginkgo e2e tests. The changed-file diff contains no Go or other Ginkgo test changes. The added tests use cy.intercept, cy.visit, and mocked Loki responses; they do not reference any listed unavailable MicroShift APIs, namespaces, or unsupported cluster assumptions.

Full details: Single Node Openshift (Sno) Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS: The commit adds Cypress it() tests in web/cypress/e2e/integration/logs-page.cy.ts and Jest tests in web/src/__tests__/loki-client.spec.ts. It adds no Ginkgo tests or Go files. The added tests use mocked HTTP responses and do not assume multiple nodes, HA, scheduling, failover, or topology roles. The SNO check is therefore not applicable.

Full details: Topology-Aware Scheduling Compatibility

Explanation

PASS: The pull request changes only frontend TypeScript, Cypress, and ESLint files. The base-to-HEAD diff contains no deployment manifests, operator code, controllers, or Kubernetes scheduling constraints. The changed log refresh and request-handling logic does not affect pod placement, replicas, affinity, tolerations, topology spread, or PDB settings.

Full details: Ote Binary Stdout Contract

Explanation

PASS: The pull request changes only web TypeScript/Cypress files. It does not change the Go binary entrypoint or any suite/process setup. The repository has no OTE/Ginkgo setup code, and the Go stdout search found no fmt/log/klog stdout writes. The existing HTTP response writes are server responses, not process stdout.

Full details: Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS: The pull request adds TypeScript Cypress and Jest tests, not Ginkgo e2e tests. The new Cypress tests use relative application routes with cy.intercept() and cy.visit(), and the added unit tests perform no network access. No hardcoded IPv4 address, IPv4-only parsing, or external/public connectivity requirement was introduced.

Full details: No-Weak-Crypto

Explanation

PASS: The pull request changes Loki response validation, request ordering, polling, tests, and UI identifiers. The added lines contain no MD5, SHA1, DES, 3DES, RC4, Blowfish, or ECB usage, custom cryptography, or secret/token comparisons. The only repository MD5 reference is an existing package-lock dependency and is not changed by this pull request.

Full details: Container-Privileges

Explanation

PASS. The pull request changes only web TypeScript, TSX, and Cypress files. It adds no container or Kubernetes manifest changes and no added lines contain privileged, hostPID, hostNetwork, hostIPC, SYS_ADMIN, or allowPrivilegeEscalation: true. Existing workload manifests set allowPrivilegeEscalation: false, drop all capabilities, and run as non-root. The existing Dockerfile root builder stage is unchanged and is not introduced by this pull request.

Full details: No-Sensitive-Data-In-Logs

Explanation

PASS. The patch adds no console, logger, telemetry, or print calls. The new Loki error text is passed to the existing UI ErrorMessage component, which renders it in an Alert; it is not written to logs. Added test data contains only generic Loki parse-error text and result labels. No passwords, tokens, API keys, PII, session IDs, hostnames, or customer data are introduced into logging.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Block refresh while the histogram request is pending.

When the histogram is visible, runQuery() calls getHistogram(). The three refresh guards can call runQuery() after the logs request completes while isLoadingHistogramData remains true. getHistogram() aborts the active histogram request before starting a replacement, so a 15-second interval can repeatedly abort histogram requests before they complete. Add !isLoadingHistogramData to each refresh condition in the three affected pages.
