breaking: Clean up deprecated functionality for v1 by tstirrat15 · Pull Request #562 · authzed/zed

tstirrat15 · 2025-10-12T15:18:36Z

Description

Part of getting a v1 of Zed out the door. We want to take the opportunity to get rid of some deprecated codepaths, which will keep complexity down in the long term.

Changes

Remove zed preview schema compile - it's now just zed schema compile
Remove zed watch - it's now just zed relationship watch
Remove deprecated revision flag - use the other consistency flags
Remove zed permission lookup - it's zed permission lookup-resources
Remove deprecated estimated-count flag on bulk-delete - use limit instead

Testing

Review. See that tests still pass.

internal/commands/permission.go

 	registerConsistencyFlags(checkCmd.Flags())

 	permissionCmd.AddCommand(checkBulkCmd)
-	checkBulkCmd.Flags().String("revision", "", "optional revision at which to check")


this one wasn't marked as hidden, can we actually remove it?

i also see this

readCmd.Flags().String("revision", "", "optional revision at which to check") _ = readCmd.Flags().MarkHidden("revision")

I would argue yes, as long as we document it

miparnisari · 2025-10-14T18:06:38Z

I wonder if we could take this PR as an opportunity to:

have zed permission bulk-check and zed permission check-bulk be an alias for zed permission bulk (will match zed relationship bulk-delete)
have zed relationship write be an alias for zed relationship create (will match zed schema write)

This would be in the name of consistency 😄

I ran mage gen:docForPublish and inspected the docs at https://github.com/authzed/zed/blob/main/docs/zed.md. I saw this, can we update it?

zed/internal/cmd/schema.go

Lines 97 to 101 in 57fdb03

    
           	Example: ` 
        
           	Write to stdout: 
        
           		zed preview schema compile root.zed 
        
           	Write to an output file: 
        
           		zed preview schema compile root.zed --out compiled.zed

internal/cmd/cmd.go


 	relCmd := commands.RegisterRelationshipCmd(rootCmd)

-	commands.RegisterWatchCmd(rootCmd)


This is one of the aliases that we removed.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:39:30Z

internal/cmd/cmd.go

-	schemaCompileCmd := registerAdditionalSchemaCmds(schemaCmd)
-	registerPreviewCmd(rootCmd, schemaCompileCmd)


We no longer pass out the schemaCompileCmd as it's no longer needed as an arg to the preview command.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:39:41Z

internal/cmd/preview.go

-	schemaCmd := &cobra.Command{
-		Use:        "schema <subcommand>",
-		Short:      "Manage schema for a permissions system",
-		Deprecated: "please use `zed schema compile`",
-	}


No longer any commands under this.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:39:54Z

internal/cmd/schema.go

 	schemaCmd.AddCommand(schemaCompileCmd)
 	schemaCompileCmd.Flags().String("out", "", "output filepath; omitting writes to stdout")
-
-	return schemaCompileCmd


See note about no longer passing things out of this command.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:40:20Z

internal/commands/permission.go

-	// Deprecated (hidden) flag.
-	if revision := cobrautil.MustGetStringExpanded(cmd, "revision"); revision != "" {


This is now covered by the consistency option; we want to get rid of the old way of doing things.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:40:27Z

internal/commands/permission.go

+		Short:   "Check permissions in bulk exist for resource-permission-subject triplets",
+		Args:    ValidationWrapper(cobra.MinimumNArgs(1)),
+		RunE:    checkBulkCmdFunc,
+		Aliases: []string{"check-bulk", "bulk-check"},


Adding aliases here.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:40:44Z

internal/commands/permission.go

-	lookupCmd := &cobra.Command{
-		Use:               "lookup <type> <permission> <subject:id>",


No longer using a separate command for lookup. This is covered by lookup-resources.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:41:16Z

internal/commands/permission.go


 	permissionCmd.AddCommand(expandCmd)
 	expandCmd.Flags().Bool("json", false, "output as JSON")
-	expandCmd.Flags().String("revision", "", "optional revision at which to check")


Same deal here.

tstirrat15 · 2025-11-20T22:41:44Z

internal/commands/relationship.go

 		Args:              ValidationWrapper(StdinOrExactArgs(3)),
 		ValidArgsFunction: GetArgs(ResourceID, Permission, SubjectTypeWithOptionalRelation),
 		RunE:              writeRelationshipCmdFunc(v1.RelationshipUpdate_OPERATION_CREATE, os.Stdin),
+		Aliases:           []string{"write"},


Adding zed relationship write as an alias - this is what i always want to write.
