This is an initial implementation of the mgmt language. It is a
declarative (immutable) functional, reactive, domain specific
programming language. It is intended to be a language that is:
* safe
* powerful
* easy to reason about
With these properties, we hope this language, and the mgmt engine will
allow you to model the real-time systems that you'd like to automate.
This also includes a number of other associated changes. Sorry for the
large size of this patch.
This would previously panic since it wouldn't get a kind, and the meta
parameters would overwrite the defaults so it would block because limit
didn't have the default of +inf.
The removal of the SetKind was my fault in:

It's funny because it ends in `bad`. Guess I should have checked that!
This allows the implementer of the GAPI to specify three parameters for
every Next message sent on the channel. The Fast parameter tells the
agent if it should do the pause quickly or if it should finish the
sequence. A quick pause means that it will cause a pause immediately
after the currently running resources finish, where as a slow (default)
pause will allow the wave of execution to finish. This is usually
preferred in scenarios where complex graphs are used where we want each
step to complete. The Exit parameter tells the engine to exit, and the
Err parameter tells the engine that an error occurred.
Since the pgraph graph can store arbitrary pointers, we don't need a
special method to create the vertices or edges as long as they implement
the String() string method. This cleans up the library and some of the
examples which I let rot previously.
The graph of dependencies in golang is a DAG, and as such doesn't allow
cycles. Clean up this lib so that it eventually doesn't import our
resources module or anything else which might want to import it.
This patch makes adjacency private, and adds a generalized key store to
the graph struct.
This is required if we're going to have out of package resources. In
particular for third party packages, and also for if we decide to split
out each resource into a separate sub package.
This puts the generation of the initial event into the Next method of
the GAPI. If it does not happen, then we will never get a graph. This is
important because this notifies the GAPI when we're actually ready to
try and generate a graph, rather than blocking on the Graph method if we
have a long compile for example.
This is also required for the etcd watch cleanup.
Avoid use of the reflect package, and use an extensible list of registred
resource kinds. This also has the benefit of removing the empty VirtRes and
AugeasRes struct types when compiling without libvirt and libaugeas.
