Console logs: Link detection does not properly parse full URLs

[onionhammer]

When I hover over the URL, it excludes the port, etc.

This may have to do with colored port numbers vite spits out.

Good call on the colorization. I bet that's the cause here. Out of curiosity, does the URL detection work for VITE output in plain windows terminal? We more or less match what they do for detection, though we might be doing it at a different stage of the pipeline that has different ultimate effect...

Yes, it works in VS Code terminal as well

Interesting. We'll have to see if we can re-layer that logic (url detection and ANSI-to-CSS are basically two of several steps in the log processing). Good find! We'll take a look.

I am unable to recreate this issue in the latest main.
I have tried looking at the logs with urls in them and I have tried the following tests:

  [Theory]
  [InlineData("No urls", "No urls")]
  [InlineData("Named https url: https://some-page.com/", "Named https url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://some-page.com/\">https://some-page.com/</a>")]
  [InlineData("Named http url: http://some-page.com/", "Named http url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://some-page.com/\">http://some-page.com/</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP https url: https://0.0.0.0/", "IP https url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://0.0.0.0/\">https://0.0.0.0/</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP https url: http://0.0.0.0/", "IP https url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://0.0.0.0/\">http://0.0.0.0/</a>")]
  [InlineData("Named https url with port: https://some-page.com:5173/", "Named https url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://some-page.com:5173/\">https://some-page.com:5173/</a>")]
  [InlineData("Named http url with port: http://some-page.com:5173/", "Named http url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://some-page.com:5173/\">http://some-page.com:5173/</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP https url with port: https://0.0.0.0:5173/", "IP https url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://0.0.0.0:5173/\">https://0.0.0.0:5173/</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP http url with port: http://0.0.0.0:5173/", "IP http url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://0.0.0.0:5173/\">http://0.0.0.0:5173/</a>")]
  [InlineData("Named https url: https://some-page.com", "Named https url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://some-page.com\">https://some-page.com</a>")]
  [InlineData("Named http url: http://some-page.com", "Named http url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://some-page.com\">http://some-page.com</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP https url: https://0.0.0.0", "IP https url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://0.0.0.0\">https://0.0.0.0</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP https url: http://0.0.0.0", "IP https url: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://0.0.0.0\">http://0.0.0.0</a>")]
  [InlineData("Named https url with port: https://some-page.com:5173", "Named https url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://some-page.com:5173\">https://some-page.com:5173</a>")]
  [InlineData("Named http url with port: http://some-page.com:5173", "Named http url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://some-page.com:5173\">http://some-page.com:5173</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP https url with port: https://0.0.0.0:5173", "IP https url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://0.0.0.0:5173\">https://0.0.0.0:5173</a>")]
  [InlineData("IP http url with port: http://0.0.0.0:5173", "IP http url with port: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://0.0.0.0:5173\">http://0.0.0.0:5173</a>")]
  public void CreateLogEntry_LinkDetectionParsesFullUrls(string input, string expectedOutput)
  {
      var logParser = new LogParser(false);
      var logEntry = logParser.CreateLogEntry(input, false);
      var output = logEntry.Content;

      Assert.Equal(expectedOutput, output);
  }

In all tests, LogParser correctly parses the full url and generates a link.
If wanted, I can submit a pr adding this test Aspire.Dashboard.Tests.
In either case, I am convinced the issue has been resolved.

Edit:
The tests tries to validate LogParser as a whole. UrlParser is already well tested.

I don't think we've done anything to address the issue. The tests above wouldn't catch the problem. The issue (based on the info provided by the OP) is that VITE passes ANSI control codes to colorize the port number (and the colon and forward slash chars). So the text coming across in the logs to generate the URL in the OP's image (just the URL, ignoring the arrow and other text on that line) would be something like http://localhost\x1B[94m:\x1B[96m5173x1B[94m/x1B[0m.

We would need to do something such that the URL parsing can ignore the ANSI codes, or some other way to orchestrate both changes.

[MatsM16]

What would be the preferred way to parse http://localhost\x1B[94m:\x1B[96m5173x1B[94m/x1B[0m:

1. <a target="_blank" href="http://localhost:5173/">http://localhost:5173/</a>
   Completely ignoring ANSI sequences.
2. <a target="_blank" href="http://localhost:5173/">http://localhost\x1B[94m:\x1B[96m5173x1B[94m/x1B[0m</a>
   Only removing ANSI sequences for the actual href.

Also, would it be ok if I made AnsiParser.IsControlSequence and AnsiParser.EscaoeChar public to reuse them in UrlParser?

Edit: I realize UrlParser will receive the ANSI sequences as <span>...</span> due to the AnsiParser running first.

@tlmii
I have made a pr changing UrlParser to remove xml tags when parsing an URL.
I would love some input.
