Factorio 1.1.40 added a feature to use a centralized banlist maintained
by Wube. For the dedicated server this needs to be turned on with the
command line flag --use-authserver-bans.
Add ability to move or copy saves between instances. For instances on
the same slave the saves are transferred with filesystem operations, for
instances on two different slaves the proxy stream interface is used to
send the save via the master server.
There are some corner cases with streams that cause them to not emit
finish close or end events which in turn means that code liseting for
these events directly may end up hanging forever. Use stream.finished
to detect end of streams which will handle these cases correctly.
Move the default location of the log files into a configurable logs
folder and split the written logs up by UTC date to more easily allow
deleting of old logs to be performed. The log rotation is implemented
by winston-daily-rotate-file.
The old log format will automatically be migrated to the new format and
location if the target folder for the new logs don't yet exists.
Write new file contents to a temporary file and then rename over the
target file to avoid data loss in the unlikely event there's an error
writing the new file contents or the process is interrupted.
Resolves#416.
Since the connector refactor the action of sending a message on a
connector that is in the process of connecting changed from queuing up
the message to send it to throwing an error. To avoid events forwarded
by the slave to to the master when the connection is down from being
logged as an error forwardEventToMaster has to explicitly drop them.
Prevent ordering issues with save notifications on stop by making the
save list update part of the stop action instead of some unspecificed
amount of time later.
This also fixes the issue of the connection being closed before the last
instance sends it save list on slave shutdown.
Provide a convenience method for checking if the Master-Slave link is
fully online via a .connected property. This is true if the link has
been establised, is not in the dropped state, and not in the process of
disconnecting.
Refine the state flow used in the connector abstractions to better
handle close while connecting and resuming. The new logic is to close
the connection immediately in these two states instead of continuing
trying to connect and then giving up some point later.
For the connectors the handshake state is split into connecting
and resuming, new is replaced by closed, and the closing state is turned
into a boolean flag as it's possible that closing is desired while
connecting, connected or resuming. The connecting state is not present
in the server connector because there's nothing for the server to do in
that connector state.
The timeout logic is completely removed, once a connection attempt is
started for the client it will continue to attempt to connect, attempt
to resume dropped connections and attempt reconnects until either an
authentication error occurs or the client explicitly requests to close
the connection.
A new session timeout is added to control how long to attempt to resume
the connection until it's considered dead and invalidated. This allows
stale connections to give up earlier, and swallow up less data while in
the dropped but not yet invalidated state.
For the client side sending messages while it's connecting has been
changed to throw an error instead of queuing up the message and
(possibly) sending it after the connection is established. Code
shouldn't try to send messages without knowing if the connection it's
trying to send them over is active or not.
Ignore stop if instance status is already stopped. Fixes instance status
getting stuck at stopping if Factorio exits during startup due to the
stopped status having already been sent at the time stop is invoked.
Fixes#400
Prevent potential data loss when starting an autosave by copying it
first. This avoids overwriting a random autosave slot when the server
shuts down after having loaded an autosave.
Add /api/upload-save endpoint that streams the data via the slave
assigned to the target instance to the instance saves directory, along
with a ctl command and web interface button to do the upload.
Add link messages for listing saves and listening for changes to the
list of saves for instances along with a table in the instance view page
showing the save list for the instance and a list-saves command to ctl.
Add options to pass map seed, map exchange string, map gen settings
and/or map settings when creating a save either through the create save
request or the load scenario request.
The Node.js specific rules for Eslint were deprecated in favour of the
node plugin for Eslint. Add node plugin for eslint and switch over to
using its rules, fixing any issues detected.
Notify when an instance is in the process of stopping with a separate
status for it. This makes handling shutdown gracefully a bit simpler in
plugin code.
Rename the config and status indicating whether to load a plugin or not
from "Enabled" to "Load Plugin". The latter better describes what it
does, and unlike the former doesn't imply plugins can be enabled or
disabled on the fly.
Provide the loaded file of the tls_ca config available to slave,
instance and ctl code. This ensures they can easily use it when
connecting to the master server.
Add a per field access parameter to the config class which specifies
which of master, slave and control can access the given field. A
location is added to the config class to specify which party owns it and
fields which do not have an access parameter are not present in the
config and will throw if attempted to be read from or writen to.
The serialize, load, update, get, set and setProp are ammended with a
location parameter which specifiy where the data is from or destined to
and the access checks are performed to ensure remote access to the
config is still limited by the access parameter of field.
With this system in place the master config can be shared with control
and slave connections without compromising secrets that should stay
private. This is primarily the master authentication secret, but other
plugins may define secrets it does not want to have shared with slave
and/or control connections.
Raise "resume" instead of "connect" when a connection is re-established
after a connection drop. This prevents logic meant to resynchronize
state after a full reconnection from being invoked whenever the
connection was temporarily dropped.
Remove the pluginInfo parameter from lib/plugin attachPluginMessages as
the plugin info object is available in the `.info` property of the
plugin. While a plugin instance doesn't exist for the slave side and
was the reason for these to be separate arguments, I expect slave
plugins to be implemented eventually.
Exit immediately if shutdown has already been called. This is due to
the possibility of it being called multiple times from combinations of
signals and fatal errors.
On windows the terminal output is asynchronous by default which leads to
log lines being lost if text is written to stdout before calling
process.exit. Fix by using setBlocking before doing the log call.
The automatic creation of a self-signed certificate while nice presents
several problems. To make connections not reject the self-signed
certificate the validation of TLS certificates are wholesale disabled,
decreasing the security even when properly set up and trusted
certificates are used.
To make the created self-signed certificate pass validation it is
necessary for it to list the host names it's valid for and to copy it to
each machine that intends to connect to the server. These two steps
complicate automating the process in a reliable way and will likely lead
to confused users seeking to disable TLS certificate validation as the
easy way out to problems.
For these reasons, remove the automating creation of a broke self-signed
certificate, fix validation of certificates and document how to set up
TLS properly. This makes HTTPS recommended when accessing over the
internet, but still something which must be explicitly configured.
Special case PluginError printing during startup in slave.js in the same
way it's done in master.js. This makes it so that the stack of the
error thrown by a plugin is printed instead of the stack trace of the
place it was wrapped into a PluginError.
