Geo 2.0 Regression - Data Types
What does this MR do?
Fixes #329818 (closed)
Currently in the backend we are "hard-coding" the data types for SSF replicables. These data-types are how we determine which strategy they are using (Repository/Blob) in the frontend. This change adds helper methods on the 2 strategies to tell the frontend the true data type each replicable represents.
This change is also behind a feature flag (:geo_nodes:beta)
How to test
- Set up a Geo Primary/Secondary GDK
- Fetch the current branch
- Activate the Feature Flag on your Primary GDK (
:geo_nodes_beta) - Navigate to
http://127.0.0.1:3000/admin/geo/nodes_beta - View UI
