The Manager now broadcasts a worker update to SocketIO clients when a
worker gets a new task assigned. This ensures the "current task" shown in
the worker details view is up to date.
The etag prevents job submissions with old settings, when the job
compiler script has been edited. The etag is the SHA1 hash of the
`JOB_TYPE` dictionary (as defined by the JavaScript file). The hash is
computed in a way that's independent of the exact formatting in the
JavaScript file. Also the actual JS code itself is irrelevant, just the
`JOB_TYPE` dictionary is used.
Include `RELEASE_CYCLE` in the Makefile. This is mentioned at startup of
Manager and Worker, and reflects in the software version they report.
If `RELEASE_CYCLE == "release"`, Manager and Worker report their version
as `ApplicationVersion`. If it's any other string, the Git hash will get
appended.
When a worker's tasks get requeued because it goes to sleep, the task log
will now mention the worker identification (name + UUID). This aids in
figuring out what happened to tasks.
The Task details component already linked to the Worker it was assigned
to last, and now the Worker links back to the task.
There's only one task shown in the Worker details. If the Worker is
actively working on a task, that one's shown. Otherwise it's the
last-updated task that was assigned to the worker.
This commit does not introduce functional changes, besides renaming
every mention of 'wizard' with 'setup assistant'. In order to run the
manager setup assistant use:
./flamenco-manager -setup-assistant
The change was introduced to favor more neutral and descriptive working
for this functionality. Thanks to Sybren for helping to get this done!
* Replace "OK!" with "successfully"
Remove exclamation mark since there is no need to call for attention.
Use "successfully" as it is more descriptive in this case than OK,
which can have other meanings.
- Added initial description and illustration
- Swap "Check" button for fields with a debounced @input event
- Turn Blender's list into a radio selector
- Tweak wording when paths are not found
- Add microtip library for tooltips
- Make navigation steps clickable, according to the state
Two-way variable implementation in the job submission end-point. Where
Flamenco v2 did the variable replacement in the add-on, this has now
been moved to the Manager itself. The only thing the add-on needs to
pass is its platform, so that the right values can be recognised.
This also implements two-way replacement when tasks are handed out, such
that the `{jobs}` value gets replaced to a value suitable for the
Worker's platform as well.
When a Worker changes state from `awake` to something else, it cannot
run tasks any more. This now triggers a requeue of its active task
(should be one at most, if things are sane) so that another worker can pick
it up.
SQLite often errors out on this with only `interrupted (9)` as message.
This logging should at least tell us whether it's our own "background
context" timing out, or whether something else fishy is going on.
Fix workers timing out when they're `asleep`. When sleeping, the Worker
will call the `WorkerState` operation to see if they have to wake up, but
that didn't mark the workers as "seen". As a result, a sleeping worker
would always time out.
Run some API operations in a background context. This should prevent some
of the SQLite "interrupted" errors, as those can occur when the context
closes while a query is running.
The API operations that Workers use are now mostly running in a separate
background context, at least from the moment onward when they can run
independently of the Worker connection.
For some reason, on Windows, creating a directory with zero permissions
still allows creating a file in there. Just skip that part of the test.
The Explorer's properties panel of the directory also shows "Read Only
(only applies to files)", so at least that seems consistent.
Add a SHA256 password hasher for worker authentication. It's not used at
the moment, but can be switched to for faster API queries. Note that
switching will cause authentication errors on already-existing workers,
which means they'll automatically re-register.
This is mostly useful for debugging & profiling purposes.
Move the Worker password hashing/comparison functions into a struct, and
use it via an interface. This will make it easier to switch to different
hashing algorithms.
Even with a low number of iterations, BCrypt is quite slow. That's good for
security, but not for Flamenco Worker authentication -- the password is
more as "nice check to avoid accidentally reusing the same ID" than
something for security.
In the first-time wizard, if Blender cannot be found on $PATH but it can
be found via .blend file association, that should just be reported as a
normal sitation, and not as a `500 Internal Server Error`.
This just updates the config and saves it to `flamenco-manager.yaml`.
Saving the configuration doesn't restart the Manager yet, that's for
another commit.
This adds a `-wizard` CLI option to the Manager, which opens a webbrowser
and shows the First-Time Wizard to aid in configuration of Flamenco.
This is work in progress. The wizard is just one page, and doesn't save
anything yet to the configuration.
Manager always creates an implicit variable `{jobs}`. This used to be
Shaman-dependent, but now it's always there (has been for a while). This
is now reflected in an add-on comment, and in an extra unit test.
The task logs storage system is refactored to use the `local_storage`
package. Configuration options have also changed:
- `task_logs_path` is renamed to `local_manager_storage_path`, to
emphasise that only the Manager deals with those files, with default
value `./flamenco-manager-storage`.
- `storage_path` is renamed to `shared_storage_path`, to emphasise this
is the storage shared between Manager and Workers, with default value
`./flamenco-shared-storage`.
Task logs are still stored in
`${local_manager_storage_path}/job-{jobUUID[0:4]}/{jobUUID}/task-{taskUUID}.txt`

Add a "Last Rendered" view to the webapp.
The Manager now stores (in the database) which job was the last
recipient of a rendered image, and serves that to the appropriate
OpenAPI endpoint.
A new SocketIO subscription + accompanying room makes it possible for
the web interface to receive all rendered images (if they survive the
queue, which discards images when it gets too full).
After processing an image in the "last-rendered" processor, a SocketIO
object is sent to clients to indicate the last-rendered image needs to
be (re)loaded.
This also moves the previously existing "done callback" from a single
function to a per-image callback, so that it can be called with the
right information in there, and only when that particular image is
actually done processing.
The notification message sent via SocketIO also contains the necessary
info to render the image, so that the web client doesn't have to call
the `fetchJobLastRenderedInfo` operation.
