context cancellation, but log the unexpected watcher error before returning so

Definitely, this is also the case for any changes that happen as a result of the evaluation itself (metadata, SSE URL changing, or even any other top level field that is in the response). This is something that should be separately addressed in both Flagd and OFREP, happy to make the issues for both to document and track. I'll setup a separate PR to fix the ETag calculation to include the entire response body of the OFREP response in the ETag spec - which is more in line with how the concept of the ETag is intended (to cover the entire response and help CDN's cache data - https://httpwg.org/specs/rfc9110.html#field.etag) |

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Derive the HTTP ETag from the evaluated response.
Version(selector) does not include evaluationContext. A client can cache flags evaluated for one context, change a context attribute, and receive 304 Not Modified before ResolveAllValues runs. The client then keeps evaluations for the old context.
Keep flagConfigEtag as configuration-change metadata. Generate the HTTP ETag from the complete bulk response after evaluation, or disable 304 responses until that is implemented. Add a regression test that changes a non-targetingKey context attribute while retaining the previous If-None-Match value.

There's some double duty happening here - finderprinting is fine, but this is also filtering by flagSetId - something that the storage/query-layer actually does for you much more efficiently using immutable radix trees; basically you can pass the selector into store.Watch and it will only emit events when the set of flags selected is impacted. In the future we might support selectors like "all boolean flags" etc - anything we can query/index - so we need to lean on that here.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The store's Watch already selector-scopes via ToQuery (including compound indices), so the tracker should watch per-channel, with that channel's real selector rather than one "empty-selector" watch plus grouping after the fact. That single change:
- lets channels be arbitrary selectors
- removes the whole-store re-fingerprint on every change and manual filtering
- makes the ETag scope exactly match the eval scope "for free"
This is how the EventStream currently works, which is basically a gRPC equivalent of the SSE you are writing. You can basically power your SSE entirely with the same logic.
…ces. Also use the built in subscriber to clean up the tracking massively. Signed-off-by: Jamie Sinn <james.sinn@dynatrace.com>

The intent here is to isolate the current list, and process that separately from the mutex'd path here so that the channel can close faster. I guess technically this is an over optimization, but i was treating it as a queue drain in isolation so that closing isn't blocked on this queue having a race condition/concurrency fight for it.
If you think it's fine, happy to just do this in a single drain for shutdown.

The next line does t.subs = map[string]*subscription{}, so I believe it's extra memory allocation with that loop.

it is, but during shutdown (when this is intended) i wasn't too worried about it given it's only doubling the number of connections. Happy to swap this to a blocking shutdown if you prefer.

Conceptually I don't think these are super valuable metrics here; I think it might be better to move the metrics idea/discussion to a larger initiative that accounts for more than just the evaluation flow. |

This PR
The implementation of the wire protocol/message format is the bare SSE object that was defined in ADR-0008, not a custom protocol.
The SSE server is using the LaunchDarkly EventSource server which we've proven in DevCycle/Dynatrace that it's quite stable and has the ideal functionality that we want (channels, separation, and highly performant).
