The checks whether a request body is present are now done at a higher
level. This removes the need to do the checks at the resource handler
callback, removing duplicated code.
The checks are done by adding constraints to resources that must be
fulfilled by each request.
Added debug assertions to make sure that the core logic of the REST API
resource system works.
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.
If a destroyed monitor is created again, it will be reused. This should
prevent excessive memory growth when the same monitor is created and
destroyed again.
The feedback system wasn't used and was starting to cause problems on
Debian 9 where the libcurl required different version of OpenSSL than what
MaxScale was linked against.
Allowing requests to be converted to raw HTTP requests allows them to be
propagated to other instances of MaxScale. This should allow multiple
MaxScales to perform the same action in a coherent manner.
A simple clustering mechanism needs to be added to make MaxScale aware of
other instances.
The module command self links now point to an endpoint that executes the
module command. Depending on the type of the module command, either a GET
or a POST request must be made.
The /maxscale/ resource now supports PUT requests which modify core
parameters. As not all parameters can be changed at runtime, only
modifications to parameters that support runtime configuration are
allowed.
A set of the core MaxScale parameters can now be altered at runtime. This
set consists of the authentication timeouts and the admin interface
authentication. Other parameters either can't be modified due to internal
limitations or aren't sensible to modify at runtime.
The template class wraps a HashMap such that only a few operations
are allowed. Usage requires specializing a RegistryTraits class
template for each entry type.
The REST API now supports the If-Modified-Since, If-Unmodified-Since,
If-Match and If-None-Match headers and returns the correct response if the
conditional fails.
Added tests for the date parsing and expanded the HTTP header tests in the
REST API test suite.
The resource system now tracks both the time when a resource was last
modified and the revision number of the resource. This allows working
Last-Modified and ETag headers to be generated by the REST API.
The If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match request headers are not yet
processed and using them will always return the resource instead of a 304
Not Modified response.
Returning 204 No Content removes the cost of always sending back the
modified resource. If the modified resource is required, a GET request
should be made to retrieve it.
Updated tests to account for this change.
Various small changes to part2, as suggested by comments and otherwise.
Mostly renaming, working logic should not change.
Exception: session id changed to 64bit in the container and associated
functions. Another commit will change it to 64bit in the session itself.
MySQL sessions are added to a hasmap when created, removed when closed.
MYSQL_COM_PROCESS_KILL is now detected, the thread_id is read and the kill
command sent to all worker threads to find the correct session. If found, a
fake hangup even is created for the client dcb.
As is, this function is of little use since the client could just disconnect
itself instead. Later on, additional commands of this nature will be added.
Without the member template it is not possible to pass an auto_ptr
instantiated with a derived type to post() or broadcast().
The reason is that the conversion constructor and conversion
operator of auto_ptr are equally good for that purpose, and hence
the compilation ends with an error.
WorkerDisposableTask is intended to be passed using auto_ptr, to
make it plain that the ownership is moved. If it's inherited from
WorkerTask it can be passed as a WorkerTask, which is confusing as
it in that case will not be disposed of.
The compiler will anyway insert padding to ensure the size of the
structure is a multiple of 8. That will under Valgrind show up as
writes of uninitialized data when the messages are sent over the
pipe.
Rather than forcing the structure to be aligned on 4 byte boundary
we simply expand the id field to an 8 byte type.
The filter names for the service parameter `filters` weren't converted
into the new format. This caused a configuration error when a filter with
significant whitespace in its name was used in a service.
The modules, their types and default values are exposed via the
/maxscale/modules resource. Currently, only a list of resources can be
exposed as the externally exposed module object (MXS_MODULE) does not have
the name and type information in it.
Service parameters can now be altered with a PUT request to the REST
API. This allows general level parameters to be altered.
Module specific parameters need to be altered with a different mechanism,
namely the module command system. This requires that a generic way to call
a function needs to be devised.
When a persisted configuration file is read, the values in it are
considered to be more up-to-date than the ones in the main configuration
file. This allows all objects to be persisted in a more complete form
making it easier to change configuration values at runtime.
This change is intended to help make runtime alterations to services
possible.
Monitor resources can now be altered with a PUT request. The method allows
alterations on all parameters that the maxadmin `alter monitor` command
allows.
The service, filter and monitor resources now have a "parameters" value
which contains a set of all configuration parameters for that object. This
set contains both standard and non-standard parameters.
Also fixed a mistake in the constant name definitions for the monitor
parameters "events" and "script".
A self link to the resource itself provides a convenient way for the
client to request a resource, modify it and call the self link to update
it. This removes some of the burden on the client to keep track of the
resource links by placing these in the resource itself.
The server can now be modified with a PUT request of a modified server
resource. The server resource was reorganized to have the parameters as a
separate entity from the other more general entities of the resource.
The PUT/POST functions return a more appropriate error message when no
request body is provided.
Moved some of the constant names used in server.cc into the config.h
header.
The actual list of headers is not known when the request is first
generated. This prevents the headers from being generated in admin.cc
which handles things on a lower level.
The moving of the header generation is done with the OPTIONS method in
mind. This header needs to be generated inside the RootResource class
which manages the navigation of the resources.
Cleaned up various parts of the resource, request and response class
headers.
Moved `using` declarations into .cc files.
Made the Resource class non-copyable as it isn't really meant to be
copied.
