Added partial data conversions:
user_groups -> local_user: ids, names filled out; mainpage, uri left null
notice -> conversation: stub entry added to push the autoincrement past existing notice items
We add a local_group table to store data about local groups. It has
the unique key for nickname, so /group/<nickname> looks up here.
Updated DB data object classes and data files.
$sn->tags() returns tag list as array; $sn->hasTag('blah') to check for a particular tag only
Could be used to control things in config file:
$sn = Status_network::setupSite($_server, $_path, $_wildcard);
if (!$sn) { die("No such site"); }
if ($sn->hasTag('individual')) { /* blah */ }
Note memcached keys are unchanged; if tags are changed from an external tool clear:
statusnet:<dbname>:status_network:<key>:<val>
for <key>s 'nickname', 'hostname', and 'pathname'
Queue handlers for XMPP individual & firehose output now send their XML stanzas
to another output queue instead of connecting directly to the chat server. This
lets us have as many general processing threads as we need, while all actual
XMPP input and output go through a single daemon with a single connection open.
This avoids problems with multiple connected resources:
* multiple windows shown in some chat clients (psi, gajim, kopete)
* extra load on server
* incoming message delivery forwarding issues
Database changes:
* queue_item drops 'notice_id' in favor of a 'frame' blob.
This is based on Craig Andrews' work branch to generalize queues to take any
object, but conservatively leaving out the serialization for now.
Table updater (preserves any existing queued items) in db/rc3to09.sql
Code changes to watch out for:
* Queue handlers should now define a handle() method instead of handle_notice()
* QueueDaemon and XmppDaemon now share common i/o (IoMaster) and respawning
thread management (RespawningDaemon) infrastructure.
* The polling XmppConfirmManager has been dropped, as the message is queued
directly when saving IM settings.
* Enable $config['queue']['debug_memory'] to output current memory usage at
each run through the event loop to watch for memory leaks
To do:
* Adapt XMPP i/o to component connection mode for multi-site support.
* XMPP input can also be broken out to a queue, which would allow the actual
notice save etc to be handled by general queue threads.
* Make sure there are no problems with simply pushing serialized Notice objects
to queues.
* Find a way to improve interactive performance of the database-backed queue
handler; polling is pretty painful to XMPP.
* Possibly redo the way QueueHandlers are injected into a QueueManager. The
grouping used to split out the XMPP output queue is a bit awkward.
