Add a sendRcon method to BaseInstancePlugin and the slave's Instance
class. This servers two purposes, one is to reduce the repetition when
send RCON commands particularly from plugins, and the other is to
instrument the RCON commands sent with metrics about duration and size.
Add option to set the the maximum amount of commands transmitted in
parallel to the game. Increasing this value allows a greater rate of
commands to be executed.
Use 45 seconds as the default heartbeat interval instead of 60. Using
60 causes connections to drop when proxied through Nginx as the default
timeout there is also 60 seconds.
Use lib* prefix for the modules impored from the lib package to help
distinguish them more from ordinary variables. Fix up the naming
convention for files to be consistently lowercase_underscore for
JavaScript files.
Split up codebase into the packages @clsterio/lib, @clusterio/master,
@clusterio/slave, and @clusterio/ctl using lerna to manage them. This
will allow deployment to use only the parts needed reducing install
size, and better separate the code into shared library, master, slave
and control.
Add integration of the server adminlist, whitelist and banlist into
clusterio. Membership is stored as booleans in the user acconuts and
changes are synchronized live to slaves which pass it on to instances
which in turn will update the running server's lists with RCON commands.
Turn the flat list of commands into a hierarchy of commands, converting
most required parameters into positional parameters and add plugin
loading support for clusterctl.
Add factorio.enable_save_patching config entry to allow disabling the
save patching done on startup. This is for running vannila games or
scenarios that are not compatible with Clusterio.
Add users, roles and permissions and rework the authentication to use
separate user and slave tokens for control and slave connections
respectively.
Add commands for listing permissions, roles and users, and creating,
editing and deleting roles and users.
Implement notification to plugins for disconnect request, connect, drop,
and close. This allows plugins to properly handle slaves and the master
server shutting down without sending messages that will get lost.
Fix missing module declarations, broken lings, broken formating and
incorrect scopes in the documentation. For modules split over several
files it appears the only viable option is to use the memberof directive
on each documented member and only declare the index file as a module.
Send a mapping of the plugins the master server has loaded to slaves
vice versa. Limit the plugins that may be loaded by instances to only
those that the master server has loaded.
Add section to contributing guidelines detailing that single quoted
strings should not be used. The use of it has only resulted in the
addition of more inconsistency to the codebase.
Replace socket.io with plain WebSocket using the ws library as it
doesn't really provide any useful tools over plain WebSocket when it
comes to implementing reliable communication that works across
reconnects. The widespread browser support for WebSocket also means
it has little value to add for the web interface over WebSocket.
Add a library mod for wrapping the Clusterio remote API and providing
related utilities. This eases development of Clusterio related Lua code
by providing the same interface for both mods and modules and also makes
the serialize library available without having to duplicate it.
It is not possible to implement this through save patching as mods
cannot load Lua code from the level code like they can with code from
other mods.
Replace current configuration mess with a trimmed down version of the
original vision of #200. Configs are collection of config groups that
have fields that can be set. These groups allow organizing the fields
as well as opertunity for plugins to add their own groups. By default
plugins have an auto generated group with the enabled field.
Add startup event to the Clusterio module API which is raised at startup
of a Factorio server. This is to server as a replacement for the
on_init and on_configuration_changed events which cannot be used in
modules.
Adds clusterio_patch_number global from the patcher in order to
implement this. This is a number that's incremented every time the save
is patched.
Change module loading to use a module.json file describing the module
and patch in all files in a directory path passed to the patcher instead
of having to pass the files names and their content. This allows the
specification of which files should be passed to the event_handler lib
and an easy implementation of loading stand alone modules.
