- Closes#1528.
- Several commands (`builder status`, `image list`,
`stats`, `system df`, `system status`) advertised
`--format yaml` and `--format toml` but only handled
`json`, and every other format fell through to the
table. With this PR, we now route them through one
shared renderer with an exhaustive switch over the
format enum, so a missing format would now be a
compile error, and not just fail silently.
- Since TOML has no top level array, TOML output
now wraps list payloads under an `items` key,
because otherwise it was returning nothing for lists.
- `stats` now prints one static result for machine
readable formats instead of opening its live table
view.
- `builder status` now returns an empty list for
json/yaml/toml when no builder is running, instead
of the unparseable "builder is not running" text.
The table view keeps the message.
- with `--quiet` and no builder it now exits 0 with
no output, earlier it exited non-zero.
- Discussion topic #1336.
- This change migrates away from using `UserDefaults`,
instead providing a TOML configuration mechanism for
user configurable settings. All existing system property
settings keys are supported in the new configuration
file. However, users will have to migrate any settings
they have configured in the `UserDefaults` into TOML
for these settings to take effect.
- Breaking changes:
* `container system property get` is removed in favor of
users directly utilizing `container system property list --format toml | jq<>`.
* `container system property set` is removed since the TOML
configuration is effectively immutable during the lifetime of the
`container` daemon. Uses can edit the TOML they have in their home
directory, however no changes will take effect until the daemon is
restarted via `container system stop && container system start`
* `container system property list --format table` is removed as
generating tabular format is non-trivial and the new TOML format is
intended to be human readable
## Motivation and Context
This PR consolidates duplicated list-output formatting across the CLI
into shared rendering infrastructure.
Currently, each list command has its own copy of the same
json/quiet/table branching. This PR pulls that into shared rendering
infrastructure in `ContainerCommands`:
- `ListDisplayable` protocol for table + quiet output
- `renderJSON`, `renderTable`, `renderList` as pure functions that
return strings
- `emit()` as the single stdout boundary (no-ops on empty strings to
avoid blank-line regressions)
- `JSONOptions` so all JSON encoding goes through one path, including
volume inspect's pretty + ISO 8601 case
JSON encoding remains separate from display formatting: each command
still chooses its own JSON model, while `ListDisplayable` is used only
for table and quiet output. `ImageList` remains the intentional
exception for quiet mode so it can avoid unnecessary async work.
This change also replaces inline `JSONEncoder` usage with `renderJSON`,
removes the old `Codable+JSON.swift` helper, and moves `TableOutput` and
`ListFormat` into `ContainerCommands`. It also adds unit tests for the
shared rendering helpers and expands integration coverage for image,
network, and registry list formatting.
## Testing
- [x] Tested locally
- [x] Added/updated tests
- [ ] Added/updated docs
- Closes#1236.
- As with other resources, default to tabular output, with `--format
json` alternative.
- Also changes common workflow to collect logs even when test step times
out.
