The old system with vendor/ and git submodules worked great,
unfortunately FUD around git submodules seemed to scare people away and
golang moved to a go.mod system that adds a new lock file format instead
of using the built-in git version. It's now almost impossible to use
modern golang without this, so we've switched.
So much for the golang compatibility promise-- turns out it doesn't
apply to the useful parts that I actually care about like this.
Thanks to frebib for his incredibly valuable contributions to this
patch. This snide commit message is mine alone.
This patch also mixes in some changes due to legacy golang as we've also
bumped the minimum version to 1.16 in the docs and tests.
Lastly, we had to disable some tests and fix up a few other misc things
to get this passing. We've definitely hot bugs in the go.mod system, and
our Makefile tries to workaround those.
This ensures that docstring comments are wrapped to 80 chars. ffrank
seemed to be making this mistake far too often, and it's a silly thing
to look for manually. As it turns out, I've made it too, as have many
others. Now we have a test that checks for most cases. There are still a
few stray cases that aren't checked automatically, but this can be
improved upon if someone is motivated to do so.
Before anyone complains about the 80 character limit: this only checks
docstring comments, not source code length or inline source code
comments. There's no excuse for having docstrings that are badly
reflowed or over 80 chars, particularly if you have an automated test.
This moves to the newest etcd release, and also updates the imports to
the new go.etcd.io path. I think this is a bit of a pain, but might as
well get it done.
This is a giant cleanup of the etcd code. The earlier version was
written when I was less experienced with golang.
This is still not perfect, and does contain some races, but at least
it's a decent base to start from. The automatic elastic clustering
should be considered an experimental feature. If you need a more
battle-tested cluster, then you should manage etcd manually and point
mgmt at your existing cluster.
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.
