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 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
