Saadi Myftija 255a73a2fe feat(deployments): --native-build-server support for the deploy command (#2702)
This PR adds support for CLI deployments using the native build server.

**Background**

The deployment command currently does the following:
- bundles the code
- submits the build context to our external build provider and waits for
the build
- triggers deployment state transitions using the platform API

Upstream build provider outages cause issue with deployments,
potentially blocking deployments entirely. We recently introduced the
`--force-local-build` flag as a fallback to enable deployment without a
dependency on the upstream build provider, though it requires users to
have docker in their systems. This PR continues that work by providing a
remote build path which uses our own build server and does not rely on
the external provider.

**Changes in this PR**

Introduced the new `--native-build-server` flag, which does the
following:
- scans all files relevant for the Trigger deployment and evaluates
ignore rules
- packages it up in an archive and uploads it as a deployment artifact
- queues the deployment and triggers the build
- streams logs from the build server

This no longer relies on external build services. Also deployment state
transitions happen on the server-side, giving us more flexibility to
evolve the flow and schemas of related deployment API endpoints. In
general it gives us better control of the whole build and deployment
process. This path will eventually become the default.

The `--detach` flag is also new, allowing to trigger deployments without
waiting for the result.

The deployment artifacts are uploaded via pre-signed URLs to avoid
unnecessary load on the platform. The new `/artifacts` endpoint
generates the pre-signed URLs; size limits are enforced on s3. This
endpoint is deliberately generic, we could extend it in the future to
upload other artifacts client-side in a similar way, e.g., large payload
packets.

@trigger.dev/database

This is the internal database package for the Trigger.dev project. It exports a generated prisma client that can be instantiated with a connection string.

How to switch branches when you've done migrations

Sometimes you've applied migrations and then want to switch branches without wiping out your local database.

To do this you can run the following command:

DB_VOLUME=database-data-alt pnpm run docker

This will switch to the alt volume for your local database. This database will be blank if you haven't switched to this volume before, so you'll need to follow the normal steps (in the Contributing guide) to get setup, e.g. apply migrations and seed.

To switch back to the original volume, run the following command:

pnpm run docker

How to add a new index on a large table

  1. Modify the Prisma.schema with a single index change (no other changes, just one index at a time)
  2. Create a Prisma migration using cd internal-packages/database && pnpm run db:migrate:dev:create
  3. Modify the SQL file: add IF NOT EXISTS to it and CONCURRENTLY:
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS "JobRun_eventId_idx" ON "JobRun" ("eventId");
  1. Dont apply the Prisma migration locally yet. This is a good opportunity to test the flow.
  2. Manually apply the index to your database, by running the index command.
  3. Then locally run pnpm run db:migrate:deploy

Before deploying

Run the index creation before deploying

CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS "JobRun_eventId_idx" ON "JobRun" ("eventId");

These commands are useful:

-- creates an index safely, this can take a long time (2 mins maybe)
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS "JobRun_eventId_idx" ON "JobRun" ("eventId");
-- checks the status of an index
SELECT * FROM pg_stat_progress_create_index WHERE relid = '"JobRun"'::regclass;
-- checks if the index is there
SELECT * FROM pg_indexes WHERE tablename = 'JobRun' AND indexname = 'JobRun_eventId_idx';

Now, when you deploy and prisma runs the migration, it will skip the index creation because it already exists. If you don't do this, there will be pain.
