dc 105052b948 test: prove staged rejections from the response, and check the field rules at macro level
The MPE_DERIVED post edit hook aborts with mp_abort, so the webout carries a
sasjsAbort object: stagedata.test.3 and .4 now read that through
mpe_assert_abort instead of inferring the outcome from MPE_LOADS.

The field level rules move into mpe_derived_check so they can be tested
directly.  A service cannot exercise them all - VAR_LABEL is varchar(256) and a
staging dataset declares the same length, so a longer label is truncated before
any check sees it - and the macro test runs in seconds rather than minutes.

Data Controller for SAS

Control your manual data modifications!

Alternatives to Data Controller include:

  • 💾 Developing / testing / deploying / scheduling overnight batch jobs to load files from shared drives
  • 🔒 Opening (and locking) datasets in Enterprise Guide or SAS® Table Viewer to perform direct updates
  • ❓ Asking a #DBA to run validated code after a change management process
  • 🌐 Building & maintaining your own custom web application
  • 🏃 Running #SAS or #SQL updates in production

Problems with the above include:

  • Legacy 'black box' solutions with little to no testing, documentation or support
  • End users requiring direct write access to critical data sources in production
  • Upload routines that must be manually modified when the data model changes
  • Breaches due to unnecessary parties having access to the data
  • Inability to trace who made a change, when, and why
  • Reliance on key individuals to perform updates
  • Building bespoke ETL for every new data source
  • High risk of manual error / data corruption

Data Controller for SAS® solves all these issues in a simple-to-install, user-friendly, secure, documented, battle-tested web application. Available on Viya, SAS 9 EBI, and SASjs Server.

An individual Viya deploy can be done in just 2 lines of #SAS code!

Development

Lighthouse CI

This project includes automated Lighthouse performance and accessibility checks that run on pull requests. The checks ensure:

  • Accessibility Score: Minimum 1.0 (100%) median score across all tested pages

The Lighthouse CI workflow:

  1. Sets up the development environment with SASjs server and mocked services
  2. Builds and serves the Angular frontend
  3. Installs Chrome and runs lhci autorun (Lighthouse CI) against key pages
  4. Uploads results as artifacts for review

To run Lighthouse checks locally:

cd client
npm install
npm run lighthouse

Configuration is in client/lighthouserc.js (URL list, desktop preset, Chrome flags, assertions).
