Noa cc73953787 Typescript views (#3584)
# Description of Changes

Currently need changes from both #3548 and #3527, and the latter is
merged into master but the former isn't rebased on top of it. so we stay
silly for the moment

I'd like to pull out my first commit into its own PR, but that's not
really possible until #3548 rebases onto master.

# Expected complexity level and risk

2 - pretty straightforward translation of the wasm/Rust view
implementation to typescript.

# Testing

- [ ] <!-- maybe a test you want to do -->
- [ ] <!-- maybe a test you want a reviewer to do, so they can check it
off when they're satisfied. -->

Piotr Sarnacki 647be7e9c0 spacetime init rewrite (#3366)
This is a draft of the new functionality for `spacetime init`. In order
to run it with built-in templates you have to set the path to the config
file:

```
export SPACETIMEDB_CLI_TEMPLATES_FILE=crates/cli/.init-templates.json
```

In the future it will fetch the list from GH.

A few notes:

* the previous functionality of `spacetime init` does not work at the
moment
* the code needs a bit more cleanup and tests before merging
* there is a bit of a mix in how we generate empty server and client
projects. For Rust we use the existing way of generating. For TypeScript
we clone an empty project from the repo. I wanted to play with both ways
of doing things, and I'm still not sure which is better. Generation in
Rust means that the generated code will match the CLI version and not
necessarily whatever is in Git. On the other hand, for the builtin
templates we will be fetching the newest version from GH, which I guess
might also not what we want, ie. we probably want only stable templates.
More discussion is needed here
* we use `spacetimedb` directory for the server files
* I don't particularly like the inability to disable interactive mode
easily. We discussed disabling it by default if all of the required
arguments are passed, but I don't think it's feature proof. For example,
if someone relies on a non-interactive mode, and we add a new required
argument, instead of printing a message `missing --foo`, we will
automatically launch interactive mode, which is harder to debug. That's
why I think I'd prefer to implement `--non-interactive` argument
* it's kind of hard to keep the legacy behaviour. If you don't pass any
arguments, we go into interactive mode. In the legacy version, we would
print required arguments. If someone passes `--lang` or `--project-path`
explicitly, I guess we could run the legacy workflow, but not sure if
it's worth it, as the command was marked as unstable anyway
* the project path defaults to the project name, but I think we should
probably replace change whitespaces to dashes, or at least ask for the
project path with the project name being the default (or both)

Tyler Cloutier 58d299ea42 Removed @clockworklabs/typescript-sdk in favor of spacetimedb (#3262)
# Description of Changes

This PR removes the `@clockworklabs/typescript-sdk` from the repository
and retains only `spacetimedb` in the `crates/bindings-typescript`
directory. Some files are migrated to `spacetimedb`. I have also updated
the appropriate READMEs.

In addition I have symlinked the old `sdks/typescript` directory to
point to `crates/bindings-typescript`.

# API and ABI breaking changes

This is not technically a breaking change of any kind, although it does
orphan and deprecate the
[@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk)
npm package. This package will no longer work with SpacetimeDB.

Users should now install and use the `spacetimedb` package.

# Expected complexity level and risk

2, it's a straightforward change but affects many files.

# Testing

- [ ] I ran `pnpm test` in the `spacetimedb` package
- [ ] I ran the quickstart app

Tyler Cloutier c83f55f65e Refactors TypeScript into a single spacetimedb package (#3248)
# Description of Changes

This PR moves most of the contents of `@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk`
into the `spacetimedb` module. The `spacetimedb` module now exports
`sdk` and `server` as separate subpaths where `sdk` contains the code
which was previously in `@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk`.

In particular it makes the following moves:

- `/sdks/typescript/packages/sdk` -> `/sdks/typescript`
- most of the contents of `/sdks/typescript/packages/sdk` ->
`crates/bindings-typescript`
- `/sdks/typescript/packages/test-app` ->
`crates/bindings-typescript/test-app`

The following packags was NOT moved:

`/sdks/typescript/examples/quickstart-chat`

## Motivation

In accordance with
https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDB/issues/3250, we would like
to consolidate `@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` into a single
`spacetimedb` package so that users can import the different things they
need from a single package.

### Pros:
- allow users to install a single package with subpaths `spacetimedb`,
`spacetimedb/react`, `spacetimedb/sdk`, `spacetimedb/server`, etc.
- Is much simpler for bundling, etc.
- Is backwards compatible with `@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` which
now becomes a thin wrapper
- eventually allow us to break up the `spacetimedb` package into other
packages if we want to split them up (e.g. `@spacetimedb/lib`,
`@spacetimedb/sdk`, etc.) and we can solve the build complexity that
introduces when we get to it
- eventually allow us to move `bindings-csharp` out of the crates
directory where it probably doesn't belong anyway
- organizes all TypeScript packages into the packages directory where
you'd normally expect them, with the possible exception of
`/sdks/typescript` if we wanted to leave that separate

### Cons:
- The `sdk` directory is now a bit of a ruse as to where the code
actually lives since it's just a thin wrapper. If it eventually becomes
its own independent package, we'll also have to break up spacetimedb
into `@spacetimedb/lib` and `@spacetimedb/server` so that
`@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` can depend on `@spacetimedb/lib` while
being a dependency of `spacetimedb`.

Ideally this change would have been made later, however, it became
necessary for the following **heinously disastrous chain of forcing
moves**:

1. Adding `react` support necessitated shipping react as an optional
peer dependency under `@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk/react`
2. This required adding a new build target/export/bundle
3. Previously `@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` was configured to have
`noExternal` for `spacetimedb` meaning it would collect the library into
the sdk bundle. I attempted to continue this for react support but...
4. Creating a new `react` bundle which also pulled in `spacetimedb`
caused their to be nominal type conflicts between classes in the
duplicate `spacetimedb` bundles.
5. Changing `spacetimedb` to be included as `external` caused compile
errors because `@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` is configured in
`tsconfig.json` to fail on unused variables and it was now including the
source of `spacetimedb` which is not configured to error on unused
variables and has "unused" private variables which are actually used by
us secretly, but not exposed to the clients.
> SIDE NOTE: The unused variables settings cannot be turned off on a
line by line basis, so it has to be turned off entirely, but in order to
maintain the linting checks we had I used `eslint` to enforce the rule
so that we could disable it line by line. (This caused me to discover
quite a lot of things that were broken that were caught by `eslint`
being applied to the entire project. `eslint` was previously only
applied to the `quickstart-chat` and the `crates/bindings-typescript`
library)
6. Changing the build to be external, now requires `spacetimedb` to also
be published to npm as its own module which
`@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` now imports, which requires that we add
`tsup` config to `spacetimedb` to publish a built version of the
library.
7. The only way to avoid that is to move the `sdk` and `react` code from
`@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` into the existing `spacetimedb` package
to avoid the duplicate import problem on step 4 and change
`@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk` back to again use `noExternal` for its
`spacetimedb` dependency.

And here we are. I chose not to move `/crates/bindings-typescript` even
though that's probably not a great place long term. It would be better
to have it in `/packages/spacetimedb` or `/npm-packages/spacetimedb` or
`/ts-packages/spacetimedb` or something, and move all our TypeScript
packages in there. But that is a different matter.

The net result however is that we have a new `spacetimedb` package which
exports the different parts of the API under:

- `spacetimedb`
- `spacetimedb/server`
- `spacetimedb/sdk`
- `spacetimedb/react`

while still not breaking the existing deploy process, nor any
users/developers who are currently using
`@clockworklabs/spacetimedb-sdk`.

I think long term should we ever decide to split `spacetimedb` up into
multiple packages or if we have additional unrelated packages, we should
publish them to the `@spacetimedb` org which I reserved for us here:

https://www.npmjs.com/org/spacetimedb

> NOTE: `spacetimedb` is a package and `@spacetimedb` is an org.
`spacetimedb/sdk` is not a separate package, it's a subpath export of
the `spacetimedb` package, whereas `@spacetimedb/sdk` would be (and
would need to be) it's own separate package. You can certainly have both
`spacetimedb/sdk` and `@spacetimedb/sdk`. We could for example host the
code for the sdk at `@spacetimedb/sdk` and just reexport it from
`spacetimedb` under the `spacetimedb/sdk` subpath.

# API and ABI breaking changes

This should not change or modify the API or ABI in any way. If it does
so accidentally it is a bug, although I carefully went through the
exports.

# Expected complexity level and risk

3 because it changes how the SDK is built a bit and rearranges a lot of
paths.

# Testing

- [x] All of the CI passes
- [x] I also ran quickstart-chat to confirm that it is not broken
- [x] I also ran test-app
