Control status will be replaced by job-specific output at some point.
Task was not useful anymore with state machine, may reintroduce
something similar at a later point, but consider alternatives:
- opentracing.io
- embedding everything in ctx
- activity stack would work easily
- log entries via proxy logger.Logger object
- progress reporting should be in status reports of individial jobs
We lost the nice context-stack [jobname][taskname][...] at the beginning
of each log line when switching to logrus.
Define some field names that define these contexts.
Write a human-friendly formatter that presents these field names like
the solution we had before logrus.
Write some other formatters for logfmt and json output along the way.
Limit ourselves to stdout logging for now.
Implement
* pruning on source side
* local job
* test subcommand for doing a dry-run of a prune policy
* use a non-blocking callback from autosnap to trigger the depending
jobs -> avoids races, looks saner in the debug log
Done:
* implement autosnapper that asserts interval between snapshots
* implement pruner
* job pull: pulling + pruning
* job source: autosnapping + serving
TODO
* job source: pruning
* job local: everything
* fatal errors such as serve that cannot bind socket must be more
visible
* couldn't things that need a snapshotprefix just use a interface
Prefixer() instead? then we could have prefixsnapshotfilter and not
duplicate it every time...
* either go full context.Context or not at all...? just wait because
community climate around it isn't that great and we only need it for
cancellation? roll our own?
Don't use jobrun for daemon, just call JobDo() once, the job must
organize stuff itself.
Sacrifice all the oneshot commands, they will be reintroduced as
client-calls to the daemon.
Job names are derived from job type + user-defined name in config file
CLI now has subcommands corresponding 1:1 to the config file sections:
push,pull,autosnap,prune
A subcommand always expects a job name, thus executes exactly one job.
Dict-style syntax also used for PullACL and Sink sections.
jobrun package is currently only used for autosnap, all others need to
be invoked repeatedly via external tool.
Plan is to re-integrate jobrun in an explicit daemon-mode (subcommand).
