This cleans up the API to not have a special case for etcd anymore. In
particular, this also adds the requirement that the GAPI must generate
an event on startup as soon as it is ready to generate a graph.
There was a race condition that would sometimes occur in that if we
stopped reading from the gapiChan (on shutdown) but then a new message
was available before we managed to close the GAPI, then we would wait
forever to finish the close because the channel never sent, and the
WaitGroup wouldn't let us exit.
This fixes this horrible, horrible race.
This is the initial base of what will hopefully become a powerful API
that machines will use to communicate. It will be the basis of the
stateful data store that can be used for exported resources, fact
exchange, state machine flags, locks, and much more.
This is a monster patch that splits out the yaml and puppet based graph
generation and pushes them behind a common API. In addition alternate
pluggable GAPI's can be easily added! The important side benefit is that
you can now write a custom GAPI for embedding mgmt!
This also includes some slight clean ups that I didn't find it worth
splitting into separate patches.
This makes this logically more separate! :) As an aside...
I really hate the way golang does dependencies and packages. Yes, some
people insist on nesting their code deep into a $GOPATH, which is fine
if you're a google dev and are forced to work this way, but annoying for
the rest of the world. Your code shouldn't need a git commit to switch
to a a different vcs host! Gah I hate this so much.
