Implement a credential option to config entries which is a list of
locations the config entry can be read from. When specified and the
option is a string field this gets rendered as a password field in the
config UI. If the credential is not readable from control the value of
the fields is cleared when the UI is refreshed.
Rewrite shutdown logic for Factorio servers to send a /quit command via
RCON for both Linux and Windows when stopping a server to avoid having
two confusingly intermixed code paths for Windows and Unix systems.
This makes shutdown on Windows tell clients the server shut down instead
of abruptly stoping to respond.
If a factorio dir is configured in config-host.json then use that in the
tests. This removes the requirement of having a factorio installation
in ./factorio or linking to one there when running the tests.
The host.controller_url config is required to end with a / for the url
joining logic to work. Fix code added #619 setting this to a value not
ending with a /.
Remove some assumptions that prevent subscription listeners from working on an
instance. This means allowing the host to forward the event from the instance
to the controller; correctly storing subscription listeners by address rather
than by connection; and a bunch of network and event stuff to correctly clean up
a listener.
Remove the assumption that all subscriptions events contains the updates
property. This meant fixing inconsistent types; always checking if the property
existed; fixing lots of the tests that made incorrect assumptions.
Minior fixes:
- Fix double firing of listener callbacks on first connection.
- Fix synced being set to true too early on first connection.
- Fix edge case interaction between last response and last snapshot for values
with updated set as 0.
Also change the the output made during the start of tests to indicate something
is happening when start up is slow and allow for silent testing to reduce the
amount of text output to the console.
The usage of shell: true means that no escaping is done on the arguments
passed to the commands invoked by the installer. This leads to the
installation failing if the user for example puts a space in the
username for the admin account.
Fix by escaping the arguments passed on command lines. This is
unreasonably complicated on Windows 😡.
Use the settings prototypes to coerce any incorrectly typed mod settings
to the correct type either by casting or by replacing the value with the
default value from the prototype.
This will fix cases where an update to a mod changes the type of ono of
its defined settings.
Store and use a cache of the loaded ModInfo data to mod-info-cache.json
in the mods directory during startup. For simplicity this does not
cache mods added to the controller or host after startup, these get
added to the cache on the next startup.
Implement the shorthand notations that Factorio recognises for colours
where individual components may be left out or the colour specified as
an array of values instead of an object.
Use a separate folder for the TypeScript build for Node.js in the dist
folder. This makes each type of build consistently have its own output
folder instead of being interleaved with the Node.js build.
If a link is closed while the prepareDisconnect action is in progress
the link will still try to signal the disconnect ready over the socket
when the prepareDisconnect action completes, which throws due to the
socket no longer being present. This error is not caught due to the
catch happening before the finally on the promise and triggers an
unhandled rejection.
Fix by rearranging the finally to come before the catch on the promise
so that errors are always handled, and checking that the link still has
a session before attempting to send the disconnect ready signal.
When messages were forwarded they were sent using the low level
connector .send method which accepts a message and sends it over the
link. This method sends the message as is with no modification which
means that at no point during the forwarding logic was the message
sequence number that originated from Link A renumbered to the correct
sequence number to send out on Link B which it was forwarded on.
This in turn caused the logic which drops acked messages from the send
buffer to break which in turn meant the resume could cause duplication
of message and/or messages to be lost. With enough duplicated messages
the resume of one connection could cause other connections to drop and
also initiate resume.
Fix by renumbering the sequence on forwarded messages. In the future
the sequences sent and received should also be checked to make sure this
kind of problem does not happen again, this is not done here because
partially updating a running cluster with sequence problems to one that
checks and enforces sequences numbers will be problematic.
When a plugin broadcasts an event to instances there may be hosts and
instances in the cluster which does not have the plugin loaded. This
would cause an error to be logged for every instance which does not have
the plugin loaded.
Filter out broadcast events sent to hosts and instances such that
instances and hosts that does not have the event do not received them.
Add suffixes like Ms and Ns to variables whos time unit is not in
seconds. This is aligning with a new code style of putting units
on variables that are not in SI base units.
Change the expected exported name of plugin declarations to be "plugin"
at the main entrypoint instead of the default export. This makes the
plugin's code organisation more flexible especially when using CommonJS
JavaScript modules as they can export additional symbols from the
plugin declaration file.
Implement remotely initiated stopping and restarting of the controller
and hosts. Restarting is implemented by exiting with a non-zero exit
code and relying on a process manager to start the procress again. To
prevent accidentally trying to restart on a system that doesn't have a
process manager present the --can-restart command line option needs to
be passed to enable the restart operation.
Record the time a player was first seen joining an instance in
PlayerStats. For existing stats this value is set to the last
joined time when it is first loaded.
Provide the kernel, machine, CPU Model, hostname, and Node.js version
fields to SystemInfo and display them in the Web UI. These were added
as metrics exposed to prometheus in b46efeb.
There are more pieces of information about a system than just its CPU,
Memory and disk metrics. To avoid having to build a separate collection
and subscription for metrics and system info, rename the existing system
metrics to system info in anticipation of providing additonal static
system information such as CPU model in it.
If the controller is behind a proxy then the socket.remoteAddress will
be that of the proxy instead of the end client that connected. In this
case the X-Forwarded-For header will contain the address of the end
client, but this should only be relied upon if the party connecting is a
trusted proxy, otherwise a malicious user could spoof the IP address
that is logged by providing a forged X-Forwarded-For header.
Implement a trusted proxy list consisting of a configured list of IP
addresses and/or CIDR blocks and use the last address[1] in the
X-Forwarded-For header if the remoteAddress address of the connecting
party is in the trusted proxy list.
