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Existing tools.yaml configuration files are now in an outdated format.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pre-processing layer that automatically detects outdated configuration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
```

Cassandra docs 1 Apache Cassandra is a NoSQL distributed database known for its horizontal scalability, distributed architecture, and flexible schema definition.

About

Apache Cassandra is a NoSQL distributed database. By design, NoSQL databases are lightweight, open-source, non-relational, and largely distributed. Counted among their strengths are horizontal scalability, distributed architectures, and a flexible approach to schema definition.

Available Tools

Example

kind: sources
name: my-cassandra-source
type: cassandra
hosts:
    - 127.0.0.1
keyspace: my_keyspace
protoVersion: 4
username: ${USER_NAME}
password: ${PASSWORD}
caPath: /path/to/ca.crt # Optional: path to CA certificate
certPath: /path/to/client.crt # Optional: path to client certificate
keyPath: /path/to/client.key # Optional: path to client key
enableHostVerification: true # Optional: enable host verification

{{< notice tip >}} Use environment variable replacement with the format ${ENV_NAME} instead of hardcoding your secrets into the configuration file. {{< /notice >}}

Reference

field type required description
type string true Must be "cassandra".
hosts string[] true List of IP addresses to connect to (e.g., ["192.168.1.1:9042", "192.168.1.2:9042","192.168.1.3:9042"]). The default port is 9042 if not specified.
keyspace string true Name of the Cassandra keyspace to connect to (e.g., "my_keyspace").
protoVersion integer false Protocol version for the Cassandra connection (e.g., 4).
username string false Name of the Cassandra user to connect as (e.g., "my-cassandra-user").
password string false Password of the Cassandra user (e.g., "my-password").
caPath string false Path to the CA certificate for SSL/TLS (e.g., "/path/to/ca.crt").
certPath string false Path to the client certificate for SSL/TLS (e.g., "/path/to/client.crt").
keyPath string false Path to the client key for SSL/TLS (e.g., "/path/to/client.key").
enableHostVerification boolean false Enable host verification for SSL/TLS (e.g., true). By default, host verification is disabled.
