Josh Story 47d0c30246 [Fiber][Float] Error when a host fiber changes "flavor" (#29693)
Host Components can exist as four semantic types

1. regular Components (Vanilla obv)
2. singleton Components
2. hoistable components
3. resources

Each of these component types have their own rules related to mounting
and reconciliation however they are not direclty modeled as their own
unique fiber type. This is partly for code size but also because
reconciling the inner type of these components would be in a very hot
path in fiber creation and reconciliation and it's just not practical to
do this logic check here.

Right now we have three Fiber types used to implement these 4 concepts
but we probably need to reconsider the model and think of Host
Components as a single fiber type with an inner implementation. Once we
do this we can regularize things like transitioning between a resource
and a regular component or a singleton and a hoistable instance. The
cases where these transitions happen today aren't particularly common
but they can be observed and currently the handling of these transitions
is incomplete at best and buggy at worst. The most egregious case is the
link type. This can be a regular component (stylesheet without
precedence) a hoistable component (non stylesheet link tags) or a
resource (stylesheet with a precedence) and if you have a single jsx
slot that tries to reconcile transitions between these types it just
doesn't work well.

This commit adds an error for when a Hoistable goes from Instance to
Resource. Currently this is only possible for `<link>` elements going to
and from stylesheets with precedence. Hopefully we'll be able to remove
this error and implement as an inner type before we encounter new
categories for the Hoistable types

detecting type shifting to and from regular components is harder to do
efficiently because we don't want to reevaluate the type on every update
for host components which is currently not required and would add
overhead to a very hot path

singletons can't really type shift in their one practical implementation
(DOM) so they are only a problem in theroy not practice

The error code system substitutes React's error messages with error IDs to provide a better debugging support in production. Check out the blog post here.

  • codes.json contains the mapping from IDs to error messages. This file is generated by the Gulp plugin and is used by both the Babel plugin and the error decoder page in our documentation. This file is append-only, which means an existing code in the file will never be changed/removed.
  • extract-errors.js is an node script that traverses our codebase and updates codes.json. You can test it by running yarn extract-errors. It works by crawling the build artifacts directory, so you need to have either run the build script or downloaded pre-built artifacts (e.g. with yarn download build). It works with partial builds, too.
  • transform-error-messages is a Babel pass that rewrites error messages to IDs for a production (minified) build.
