Yuan Teoh 293c1d6889 feat!: update configuration file v2 (#2369)
This PR introduces a significant update to the Toolbox configuration
file format, which is one of the primary **breaking changes** required
for the implementation of the Advanced Control Plane.

# Summary of Changes
The configuration schema has been updated to enforce resource isolation
and facilitate atomic, incremental updates.
* Resource Isolation: Resource definitions are now separated into
individual blocks, using a distinct structure for each resource type
(Source, Tool, Toolset, etc.). This improves readability, management,
and auditing of configuration files.
* Field Name Modification: Internal field names have been modified to
align with declarative methodologies. Specifically, the configuration
now separates kind (general resource type, e.g., Source) from type
(specific implementation, e.g., Postgres).

# User Impact
Existing tools.yaml configuration files are now in an outdated format.
Users must eventually update their files to the new YAML format.

# Mitigation & Compatibility
Backward compatibility is maintained during this transition to ensure no
immediate user action is required for existing files.
* Immediate Backward Compatibility: The source code includes a
pre-processing layer that automatically detects outdated configuration
files (v1 format) and converts them to the new v2 format under the hood.
* [COMING SOON] Migration Support: The new toolbox migrate subcommand
will be introduced to allow users to automatically convert their old
configuration files to the latest format.

# Example
Example for config file v2:
```
kind: sources
name: my-pg-instance
type: cloud-sql-postgres
project: my-project
region: my-region
instance: my-instance
database: my_db
user: my_user
password: my_pass
---
kind: authServices
name: my-google-auth
type: google
clientId: testing-id
---
kind: tools
name: example_tool
type: postgres-sql
source: my-pg-instance
description: some description
statement: SELECT * FROM SQL_STATEMENT;
parameters:
- name: country
  type: string
  description: some description
---
kind: tools
name: example_tool_2
type: postgres-sql
source: my-pg-instance
description: returning the number one
statement: SELECT 1;
---
kind: toolsets
name: example_toolset
tools:
- example_tool
```

MariaDB docs 1 MariaDB is an open-source relational database compatible with MySQL.

About

MariaDB is a relational database management system derived from MySQL. It implements the MySQL protocol and client libraries and supports modern SQL features with a focus on performance and reliability.

Note: MariaDB is supported using the MySQL source.

Available Tools

Requirements

Database User

This source only uses standard authentication. You will need to create a MariaDB user to log in to the database.

Example

kind: sources
name: my_mariadb_db
type: mysql
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 3306
database: my_db
user: ${MARIADB_USER}
password: ${MARIADB_PASS}
# Optional TLS and other driver parameters. For example, enable preferred TLS:
# queryParams:
#     tls: preferred
queryTimeout: 30s # Optional: query timeout duration

{{< notice tip >}} Use environment variables instead of committing credentials to source files. {{< /notice >}}

Reference

field type required description
type string true Must be mysql.
host string true IP address to connect to (e.g. "127.0.0.1").
port string true Port to connect to (e.g. "3307").
database string true Name of the MariaDB database to connect to (e.g. "my_db").
user string true Name of the MariaDB user to connect as (e.g. "my-mysql-user").
password string true Password of the MariaDB user (e.g. "my-password").
queryTimeout string false Maximum time to wait for query execution (e.g. "30s", "2m"). By default, no timeout is applied.
queryParams map<string,string> false Arbitrary DSN parameters passed to the driver (e.g. tls: preferred, charset: utf8mb4). Useful for enabling TLS or other connection options.
