Create a module that does ssh and treats it like
a console. The plan is to have a cliserver.py to
behave in a manner resembling consoleserver.py, but
with option to have multiple distinct sessions per
target.
In the confetty CLI, readline clear history was done as
part of login process. Since readline is not a given
to accomodate scripting behaviors, no longer do the
clear_history(). The concern I had was that
the password might have gotten into history, but that
seems to not be the case.
Expansion of a noderange containing a dynamic group
would erroneously make the dynamic members get promoted
to 'permament' members. Fix this by isolating the
change so that the underlying group config is not changed
just by adding in dynamic nodes.
If only one node was in given noderange, then
the httpapi response would not look similar in
structure to a multi-node response. Force even
single items in this special case to be an array
to allow easier javascript client code.
systemd's default stop seems to be incapable of understanding
how to shut down our service. Provide an explicit ExecStop
to have systemd act more sanely.
If confluent gets stuck, provide a debug facility
to sample where it is stuck. Sending confluent
SIGUSR1 will now cause /var/log/confluent/hangtraces
to get written to.
The console API had a 'wait_for_data' which will never be used.
Also change __init__() so that it can be called via super() to
allow working around IDE complaints.
While the client can handle it now, have the server
avoid needless processing of '' data from a console
provider. Address it at the deepest level (the
tlvdata implementation) and a place higher up the stack
to avoid hits to log and such.
When attributes were specified with an incorrect noderange
it was failing to report the noderange error. If that were
specifically addressed, it would then proceed to erroneously
complain about valid attribute names.
Rather than manually curate the VERSION, use git tags
and auto-create intermediate builds with unique identifiers.
Identify both number of commits to indicate order and the git
short rev to see which rev matches.
nodelist command would show 'help' with no arguments, but
natural expectation is to list all nodes. Adjust to match
that expectation. If a noderange was somehow problematic,
the output was not appropriate, this too is addressed.
nodeconsole provides a wrapper for confetty offering logical
tab completion for console specifically as well as help
text to explain critical info about using nodeconsole.
nodelist provides functionality analagous to nodels in
xCAT 2.x codebase
