The role of the master server as the party controlling every part of the
cluster is not well reflected in its name and has caused confusion among
users on several occasions. Rename master to controller to better
reflects its role.
When reducing the collection interval in Prometheus it may be necessary
to to reduce the metrics gathering timeout to ensure it's less than the
interval. Add config options to adjust the timeouts used for metrics
gathering so that these can be set accordingly.
Fix the logic for determining which entries in the banlist changed being
incorrect and causing the banlist sync to be broken. Add unit tests for
the syncUserListsEventHandler to ensure it functions as exxpected.
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.
When statistics_exporter handles getMetrics it may take a long time for
the result of command it sends to be returned if the instance's command
stream is overloaded, this in turn would cause the slave to miss its
window to reply on the getMetrics request and no metrics for the slave
would be available. Ensure statistics_exporter does not use more than 5
seconds to respond by adding a timeout to the metrics gathering.
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 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.
