When mgmt is in etcd-client-only mode and using an external etcd server,
we don't want to unset our only known endpoint since this would deadlock
our etcd client since it can't connect to anyone. This could have
happened because a plain etcd server didn't set any endpoints to follow,
and as a result we noticed it was empty and decided to use that instead.
To workaround this issue on an earlier version of mgmt, you would have
had to run:
etcdctl put /_mgmt/endpoints/etcd http://localhost:2379
to set this magic key on the initial etcd server.
Not sure how this snuck in!
I've now ran a quick grep across the code base, and I can't find any
similar mistakes.
ack '.Done()' | grep -v defer | grep -iv ctx # then check these
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.
Unfortunately, this doesn't give us a way to pass in our own logger
function, and afaict by reading the source, it's not possible because
the necessary methods are private. In any case, this is left as a future
exercise.
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.
A clean re-write of this etcd code is needed, but until then, this
should hopefully workaround the occasional test failures. In practice I
don't think anyone has every hit this bug.
This commit adds a new test to etcd/fs/fs_test.go that performs the same
actions (with some new cases) as TestFs2 and TestFs3, but allows us to
add more test cases as needed.
This enables imports in mcl code, and is one of last remaining blockers
to using mgmt. Now we can start writing standalone modules, and adding
standard library functions as needed. There's still lots to do, but this
was a big missing piece. It was much harder to get right than I had
expected, but I think it's solid!
This unfortunately large commit is the result of some wild hacking I've
been doing for the past little while. It's the result of a rebase that
broke many "wip" commits that tracked my private progress, into
something that's not gratuitously messy for our git logs. Since this was
a learning and discovery process for me, I've "erased" the confusing git
history that wouldn't have helped. I'm happy to discuss the dead-ends,
and a small portion of that code was even left in for possible future
use.
This patch includes:
* A change to the cli interface:
You now specify the front-end explicitly, instead of leaving it up to
the front-end to decide when to "activate". For example, instead of:
mgmt run --lang code.mcl
we now do:
mgmt run lang --lang code.mcl
We might rename the --lang flag in the future to avoid the awkward word
repetition. Suggestions welcome, but I'm considering "input". One
side-effect of this change, is that flags which are "engine" specific
now must be specified with "run" before the front-end name. Eg:
mgmt run --tmp-prefix lang --lang code.mcl
instead of putting --tmp-prefix at the end. We also changed the GAPI
slightly, but I've patched all code that used it. This also makes things
consistent with the "deploy" command.
* The deploys are more robust and let you deploy after a run
This has been vastly improved and let's mgmt really run as a smart
engine that can handle different workloads. If you don't want to deploy
when you've started with `run` or if one comes in, you can use the
--no-watch-deploy option to block new deploys.
* The import statement exists and works!
We now have a working `import` statement. Read the docs, and try it out.
I think it's quite elegant how it fits in with `SetScope`. Have a look.
As a result, we now have some built-in functions available in modules.
This also adds the metadata.yaml entry-point for all modules. Have a
look at the examples or the tests. The bulk of the patch is to support
this.
* Improved lang input parsing code:
I re-wrote the parsing that determined what ran when we passed different
things to --lang. Deciding between running an mcl file or raw code is
now handled in a more intelligent, and re-usable way. See the inputs.go
file if you want to have a look. One casualty is that you can't stream
code from stdin *directly* to the front-end, it's encapsulated into a
deploy first. You can still use stdin though! I doubt anyone will notice
this change.
* The scope was extended to include functions and classes:
Go forth and import lovely code. All these exist in scopes now, and can
be re-used!
* Function calls actually use the scope now. Glad I got this sorted out.
* There is import cycle detection for modules!
Yes, this is another dag. I think that's #4. I guess they're useful.
* A ton of tests and new test infra was added!
This should make it much easier to add new tests that run mcl code. Have
a look at TestAstFunc1 to see how to add more of these.
As usual, I'll try to keep these commits smaller in the future!
This patch corrects the destination path in CopyFs to use the source's
base filepath, instead of the entire source path. Now copying /foo/bar
to /baz results in /baz/bar instead of /baz/foo/bar. This commit also adds
a test to verify this behaviour.
This allows golang tests to be marked as root or !root using build tags.
The matching tests are then run as expected using our test runner.
This also disables test caching which is unfriendly to repeated test
running and is an absurd golang default to add.
Lastly this hooks up the testing verbose flag to tests that accept a
debug variable.
These tests aren't enabled on travis yet because of how it installs
golang.
This giant patch makes some much needed improvements to the code base.
* The engine has been rewritten and lives within engine/graph/
* All of the common interfaces and code now live in engine/
* All of the resources are in one package called engine/resources/
* The Res API can use different "traits" from engine/traits/
* The Res API has been simplified to hide many of the old internals
* The Watch & Process loops were previously inverted, but is now fixed
* The likelihood of package cycles has been reduced drastically
* And much, much more...
Unfortunately, some code had to be temporarily removed. The remote code
had to be taken out, as did the prometheus code. We hope to have these
back in new forms as soon as possible.
The test for gometalinter got silently broken in an earlier commit.
Look for the missing space that was added back in this commit to see
why! In any case, this now fixes some of the things that weren't
previously caught by this change.
If anyone knows how to run these sorts of tests properly so that entire
packages are tested and so that we can enable additional tests, please
let me know!
It's also unclear why goreportcard catches a few additional problems
which aren't found by running this ourselves.

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 patch adds the option to specify URLs to advertise for clients and peers.
This will facilitate etcd communication through nat, where we want to listen
on a local IP, but expose a public IP to clients/peers.
