this patch adds the new PacketCollector class.
It's a single point for collecting information about
packets sent and recieved from the APRS client.
Basically instead of having the packetlist call the seen list
when we get a packet, we simply call the PacketCollector.rx(),
which in turn calls each registered PacketMonitor class.
This allows us to decouple the packet stats like classses inside
of APRSD. More importantly, it allows extensions to append their
own PacketMonitor class to the chain without modifying ARPSD.
This patch removes the need for the RPC Server from aprsd.
APRSD Now saves it's stats to a pickled file on disk in the
aprsd.conf configured save_location. The web admin UI
will depickle that file to fetch the stats. The aprsd server
will periodically pickle and save the stats to disk.
The Logmonitor will not do a url post to the web admin ui
to send it the latest log entries.
Updated the healthcheck app to use the pickled stats file
and the fetch-stats command to make a url request to the running
admin ui to fetch the stats of the remote aprsd server.
This patch implements a new stats collector paradigm
which uses the typing Protocol. Any object that wants to
supply stats to the collector has to implement the
aprsd.stats.collector.StatsProducer protocol, which at the
current time is implementing a stats() method on the object.
Then register the stats singleton producer with the collector by
calling collector.Collector().register_producer()
This only works if the stats producer object is a singleton.
This patch adds support for loading extenions
to APRSD!!
You can create another separate aprsd project, and register
your extension in your setup.cfg as a new entry point for aprsd
like
[entry_points]
aprsd.extension =
cool = my_project.extension
in your my_project/extension.py file
import your commmands and away you go.
The packet msgNo field is a string, but is typically is an integer
counter to keep track of a specific packet id. The counter was
returning an int, but the packet.msgNo is a string. So, when trying to
delete a packet from the packet tracker, the key for accessing the
packet is the msgNo, which has to be a string. Passing an int, will
cause the packet tracker to not find the packet, and hence silently
fail.
This patch forces the msgNo counter to be a string.
This patch is the initial conversion of the custom config
and config file yaml format to oslo_config's configuration mechanism.
The resulting config format is now an ini type file.
The default location is ~/.config/aprsd/aprsd.conf
This is a backwards incompatible change. You will have to rebuild
the config file and edit it.
Also any aprsd plugins can now define config options in code and
add an setup.cfg entry_point definition
oslo_config.opts =
foo.conf = foo.conf:list_opts
This patch reworks all the packet processing to use the new
Packets objects. Nuked all of the messaging classes.
backwards incompatible changes
all messaging.py classes are now gone and replaced by
packets.py classes
