Many daemons reload config file on SIGHUP; laminar don't have config file, so
signal is ignored (with informative message on stdout). Previously, default
handler for SIGHUP was used that terminates process.
Closes: #166
add -h|--help usage messages to laminarc and laminard
add a mechanism to compile in a version number, and display the
version in the help messages and in the frontend.
resolves#119
laminard is a daemon process and does not read from stdin. Usually
we can rely on the process mananger to do this for us, but if not
(e.g. laminard is run interactively), we need this so that child
processes (job runs) will not be able to block on stdin.
resolves#125
Implement a separate process, the "leader", which runs all the
scripts for a job run, instead of directly from the main laminard
process. This makes for a cleaner process tree view, where the
owning job for a given script is clear; also the leader process
acts as a subreaper to clean up any wayward descendent processes.
Resolves#78.
Large refactor that more closely aligns the codebase to the kj async
style, more clearly exposes an interface for functional testing and
removes cruft. There is a slight increase in coupling between the
Laminar and Http/Rpc classes, but this was always an issue, just until
now more obscured by the arbitrary pure virtual LaminarInterface class
(which has been removed in this change) and the previous lumping
together of all the async stuff in the Server class (which is now
more spread around the code according to function).
This change replaces the use of Websockets with Server Side Events
(SSE). They are simpler and more suitable for the publish-style messages
used by Laminar, and typically require less configuration of the
reverse proxy HTTP server.
Use of gmock is also removed, which eases testing in certain envs.
Resolves#90.
Lose the boost dependency since recent versions of capnproto's kj
also provide a nice filesystem library. Take the opportunity to
refactor the Run object to become more than POD and to encapsulate
some of the functionality that was done in the Laminar class
