Using commas instead of spaces prevents a the misinterpretation of
commands as hostnames. If the `--hosts` option was given just before a
command, it would consume the commands as arguments to the `--hosts` list.
The internal header directory conflicted with in-source builds causing a
build failure. This is fixed by renaming the internal header directory to
something other than maxscale.
The renaming pointed out a few problems in a couple of source files that
appeared to include internal headers when the headers were in fact public
headers.
Fixed maxctrl in-source builds by making the copying of the sources
optional.
The scripts start MaxScale processes on two different servers. The support
framework for the tests is in place but the tests themselves still need to
be modified to allow the use of non-localhost addresses.
The yargs framework combined with the pkg packaging causes the executable
name to be mangled on installation. For this reason, the usage should be
explicitly added to each command.
The timestamp of the last change from passive to active is now
tracked. This, with the timestamps of the last master_down and master_up
events, allows detection of cases when MaxScale was failed over but the
failover was not done.
Currently, only a warning is logged if no new master has appeared within
90 seconds of a master_down event and MaxScale was set to active from
passive.
The last event and when the event was triggered is now shown for all
servers. The latest change from passive to active is also shown.
The enabled admins for the Linux users were shown as basic users. This was
caused by the separation of the two admin types.
Added tests that check that enabled Linux accounts show the correct type
in the output.
The documentation stated that the users are created with administrative
privileges by default when in fact they were created with read-only
privileges.
Updated documentation generation script and regenerated documentation. Now
all command documentation is generated by using the output of the `help`
commands.
The type of the created user can now be specified with the --type option.
Expanded tests that cover the user creation. Also added a test case that
checks that basic users are only allowed to read through the REST API.
Only the protocol, port and address of the listener were used to check if
a listener exists. The check should also use the name of the listener to
be sure that each name is unique.
Expanded tests to check that the creation of duplicate listeners is
detected. Did minor improvements to related test code.
The `cluster diff` command is now tested by doing add/alter/remove
operations on servers. As the same methods are used for all objects, they
should detect all sorts of modifications between two Maxscales.
The check that the two MaxScales have the same services is now in a common
function. Added more details into the error message as to why the command
failed. The hosts and their extra services are logged for both the source
and target of the command.
The `cluster diff` command could display the extra services in the diff
but this could be interpreted as a sign that MaxScale could act on that
part of the diff. Returning an error instead of silently ignoring the
extra services should allow for a more consistent user experience.
The `execute` command now returns the output of the command instead of
printint it. This allows the tests to actually test the output of the
commands instead manually verifying that it is correct. It also allows the
library part to be used as an actual library that only returns data.
The messages now show where the request failed and what was
requested. This should help resolve both develper and end-user problems.
Also fixed the missing logging of the output string in the `parse`
callback of the main function and cleaned up the POSTed server body.
The monitors should only be reused if they have the same name and they use
the same module. This way the only difference is in configuration.
Fixed MaxCtrl detection of bad options and altered monitor creation test
to expect correct results. Also improved some of the error messages.
The test tests the internals of the cluster diff generation
algorithms. This should guarantee that the diff calculation and the
resulting synchronization will work as expected without having to test it
on a live cluster.
The `cluster sync` command synchronizes a MaxScale cluster with one
server. This allows new MaxScale instances to be synchronized with an old
instance by using the same configuration file and performing a cluster
sync.
The `cluster diff` command prints out the difference between the source
and target MaxScale. This allows users to detect changes that have
happened on one MaxScale but not on the other.
Moved MaxCtrl into a separate package to simplify packaging and
distribution process. Having the client as a separate component allows one
set of packages to be used on multiple platforms.
All errors are now returned as rejected Promises. This will make the error
reporting more consistent with the tested output as well as the actual
output.
Added more tests for error cases and fixed minor argument processing bugs.
The tests are now sorted by command type. This allows for more consistent
test creation as tests can be done per source code file instead of per
object type.
Added helper functions for common testing operations. The two main ones
are doCommand, which executes a MaxCtrl command and returns a result, and
verifyCommand, that executes a command and verifies the result via the
REST API.
The alterations to logging and maxscale were sending malformed JSON to
MaxScale. Boolean values weren't converted to JSON booleans but were sent
as strings.
