This required a change in the event system to add an "activity" field.
This is meant to be generic in the case that there is more than one need
for it, but at the moment, allows a poke to tell that it is a poke in
response to an apply that just finished, instead of a regular poke or
backpoke in which all that matters is timestamp updates, because there
wasn't any actual work done (since that state was okay).
* Add exec type
* Switch erroneous use of fmt to log instead
* Check for edge existence for safety before using
* Avoid recalling etcd channel maker
* Clean up logging output
This is the third main feature of this system. The code needs a bunch of
polish, but it actually all works :)
I've tested this briefly with N <= 3.
Currently you have to build your own etcd cluster. It's quite easy, just
run `etcd` and it will be ready. I usually run it in a throw away /tmp/
dir so that I can blow away the stored data easily.
This is still a dirty prototype, so please excuse the mess. Please
excuse the fact that this is a mega patch. Once things settle down this
won't happen any more.
Some of the changes squashed into here include:
* Merge vertex loop with type loop
(The file watcher seems to cache events anyways)
* Improve pgraph library
* Add indegree, outdegree, and topological sort with tests
* Add reverse function for vertex list
* Tons of additional cleanup!
Amazingly, on my first successful compile, this seemed to run!
A special thanks to Ira Cooper who helped me talk through some of the
algorithmic decisions and for his help in finding better ones!
This is a prototype that i'm attempting to "release early". Expect a lot
of changes! It is intended to be a config management tool that will:
* be event based
* execute actions in parallel
* function as a distributed system
There are a bunch more design ideas going into this, please stay tuned!
