This requires breaking changes in gofmt. It is hilarious that this was
changed. Oh well. This also moves to the latest stable etcd. Lastly,
this changes the `go vet` testing to test by package, since the new go
vet changed how it works and now fails without this change.
This patch adds a simple function API for writing simple, pure
functions. This should reduce the amount of boilerplate required for
most functions, and make growing a stdlib significantly easier. If you
need to build more complex, event-generating functions, or statically
polymorphic functions, then you'll still need to use the normal API for
now.
This also makes all of these pure functions available automatically
within templates. It might make sense to group these functions into
packages to make their logical organization easier, but this is a good
enough start for now.
Lastly, this added some missing pieces to our types library. You can now
use `ValueOf` to convert from a `reflect.Value` to the corresponding
`Value` in our type system, if an equivalent exists.
Unfortunately, we're severely lacking in tests for these new types
library additions, but look forward to growing some in the future!
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.
