Rename FinchClient to NerdctlClient with configurable command
Since Finch is essentially a wrapper around nerdctl, rename the client to NerdctlClient for broader applicability. The client now: - Defaults to 'nerdctl' command (was 'finch') - Accepts configurable command name via constructor parameter - Supports both nerdctl and finch (via `new NerdctlClient('finch')`) This change addresses review feedback and enables support for both direct nerdctl users and AWS Finch users with the same codebase. Renamed files: - FinchClient → NerdctlClient - FinchComposeClient → NerdctlComposeClient - All supporting record/schema files Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Code Review: `feature/add-finch-support`
2+
3+
## Scope / Diff Summary
4+
5+
- Branch: `feature/add-finch-support`
6+
- Commit: `0732c96` (“Add Finch container client support”)
7+
- High-level changes:
8+
- Adds a new `FinchClient` (Finch/nerdctl-based) and `FinchComposeClient`.
9+
- Adds Finch-specific Zod schemas + normalization for list/inspect/events.
10+
- Exposes the new clients via `packages/vscode-container-client/src/index.ts`.
11+
- Updates integration tests to allow `CONTAINER_CLIENT_TYPE=finch`.
12+
- Minor `package-lock.json` metadata updates (`"peer": true` entries).
13+
14+
## What Looks Good
15+
16+
- **Good reuse of existing abstractions:** `FinchClient` extends `DockerClientBase`, keeping the surface area small and leveraging existing argument builders and command patterns.
17+
- **Explicit documentation of Finch/nerdctl differences:** clear comments around event stream limitations and the `--expose` / `--publish-all` gap.
18+
- **Schema-first parsing:** using Zod schemas for Finch outputs is consistent with the rest of the repo and helps contain CLI drift.
19+
- **E2E plumbing:** tests are updated to include Finch as a selectable runtime without forcing it into default execution (integration tests are opt-in).
20+
21+
## High-Priority Issues (Recommend Fix Before Merge)
22+
23+
### 1) `parseEventTimestamp` relative-time math is inverted
24+
25+
File: `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchClient.ts`
26+
27+
- The docstring says:
28+
- `"1m"` means **in the past**
29+
- `"-1s"` means **in the future**
30+
- Current logic computes `now + amount * multiplier`, which makes `"1m"` land **in the future**, causing the `since` filter to drop all events.
31+
32+
Recommendation:
33+
- Use `now - amount * multiplier` (so positive durations mean “ago”; negative durations mean “in the future”), matching the intent used elsewhere in tests (e.g. `since: '1m', until: '-1s'`).
34+
35+
### 2) Inspect parsing likely breaks for multi-target inspect calls
36+
37+
Files:
38+
- `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchClient.ts` (inspect containers/images/networks/volumes)
39+
40+
Context:
41+
- `DockerClientBase` adds `--format "{{json .}}"` to `* inspect` commands, which typically yields **one JSON object per line** when inspecting multiple targets.
42+
- Finch parse functions currently do `JSON.parse(output)` and handle `Array` vs single `object`, but **do not handle newline-separated multiple JSON objects**.
43+
44+
Impact:
45+
- `inspectImages({ imageRefs: [...] })`, `inspectContainers({ containers: [...] })`, etc. may fail when passed multiple refs (depending on Finch/nerdctl’s `--format` behavior).
46+
47+
Recommendation (pick one):
48+
- **Option A:** Override the `getInspect*CommandArgs` methods for Finch to omit `--format` and rely on the default JSON array output (if Finch/nerdctl returns arrays by default).
49+
- **Option B:** Make parsing tolerant:
50+
- Try `JSON.parse(output)` first.
51+
- If that fails, fall back to `output.split('\n')` and parse per-line JSON (same as `DockerClientBase`).
52+
53+
### 3) Shell injection / portability risks in `readFile` and `writeFile`
54+
55+
File: `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchClient.ts`
56+
57+
- Both overrides use `bash -c "<string>"` with interpolated values (`this.commandName`, `options.container`, `options.path`).
58+
- Even though these are quoted with `"..."`, a container name/path containing `"` or shell metacharacters can still cause incorrect behavior.
59+
- This also assumes `bash`, `mktemp`, and `tar` exist on the host environment.
60+
61+
Recommendation:
62+
- Avoid `bash -c` where possible:
63+
- Prefer invoking `finch cp` with argv arrays and do tar/mktemp in Node, or
64+
- Use `/bin/sh -c` with robust escaping via `ShellQuotedString` (matching patterns already used in `DockerClientBase` for exec/stat/list).
65+
- At minimum: explicitly document platform assumptions (Finch is typically macOS) and harden quoting.
66+
67+
## Medium-Priority Improvements (Should Follow Soon)
68+
69+
### 1) Fix incorrect override parameter types
70+
71+
File: `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchClient.ts`
72+
73+
- `parseInspectNetworksCommandOutput` and `parseInspectVolumesCommandOutput` declare `options` as `List*CommandOptions` types, but they override `Inspect*` parsing methods.
74+
- It compiles today (because `options` is unused), but it weakens type safety and is confusing for future maintenance.
75+
76+
Recommendation:
77+
- Align parameter types with the base class (`InspectNetworksCommandOptions`, `InspectVolumesCommandOptions`).
78+
79+
### 2) “Epoch” fallbacks (`new Date(0)`) may produce misleading UX
80+
81+
Files:
82+
- `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchListContainerRecord.ts`
83+
- `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchListImageRecord.ts`
84+
- `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchInspectVolumeRecord.ts`
85+
86+
Observation:
87+
- Several normalizers use `new Date(0)` when the CLI omits or malforms timestamps.
88+
89+
Recommendation:
90+
- If the CLI output should always include a timestamp in strict mode: fail in strict mode instead of silently returning epoch.
91+
- If missing timestamps are expected: consider using `new Date()` (less misleading than 1970) or a documented sentinel strategy. For inspect volume, also validate `new Date(CreatedAt)` isn’t `Invalid Date`.
92+
93+
### 3) Volume label parsing drops label strings
94+
95+
Files:
96+
- `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchClient.ts` (listVolumes parsing)
97+
- `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchInspectVolumeRecord.ts`
98+
99+
Observation:
100+
- `Labels` can be a string in Finch output (including potentially `key=value` pairs), but the implementation treats *any* string as “no labels” (`{}`).
101+
102+
Recommendation:
103+
- If labels are emitted as `key=value,...`, parse via `parseDockerLikeLabels`.
104+
- If Finch emits `""` specifically for no labels, treat only `""` as empty.
105+
106+
### 4) Deduplicate size parsing logic
107+
108+
File: `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchListImageRecord.ts`
109+
110+
- There’s an existing `tryParseSize` utility in `DockerClientBase`.
111+
112+
Recommendation:
113+
- Reuse `tryParseSize` to reduce divergence and ensure consistent unit handling across clients.
114+
115+
### 5) Event filters: labels are silently ignored
116+
117+
Files:
118+
- `packages/vscode-container-client/src/clients/FinchClient/FinchClient.ts`
119+
120+
Observation:
121+
- `getEventStream` options include `labels`, but Finch doesn’t implement label filtering.
122+
123+
Recommendation:
124+
- Either document that labels are unsupported for Finch, or implement best-effort filtering if the event payload provides label data.
125+
- Consider rejecting with a clear `CommandNotSupportedError` when `labels` are provided (to avoid surprising “filters do nothing” behavior).
126+
127+
## Testing Notes
128+
129+
- Ran locally:
130+
- `npm run --workspace=@microsoft/vscode-container-client build`
131+
- `npm run --workspace=@microsoft/vscode-container-client lint`
132+
- `npm test --workspace=@microsoft/vscode-container-client` (unit tests; integration tests are opt-in and destructive)
133+
134+
## Lockfile Note
135+
136+
- `package-lock.json` changed only by adding `"peer": true` metadata in several entries.
137+
- If this wasn’t intentional, consider reverting the lockfile chunk to keep the PR focused.
138+
139+
## Suggested Follow-ups
140+
141+
- Add unit tests around Finch-specific logic:
142+
- `parseEventTimestamp` (relative vs absolute time)
143+
- `parseContainerdTopic` mappings
144+
- `withFinchExposedPortsArg` behavior (including edge cases)
145+
- Consider adding a small compatibility note in the package README about Finch platform expectations and supported CLI flags.
