    Work continues slowly on the configuration_hook_manager. I moved my installation over to an ssd, so now development is happening faster. At some point I should look into running an lsp server from inside the irods builder, I might actually be able to get good completion and navigation. I have moved the configuration update logic so…

    Today I have been investigating enhancing the reload() method with a list of difference objects. So far this has been relatively simple to implement. Next week I plan to figure out the design of what will become the configuration_change_hook_manager facility, but let’s go through some preliminary thoughts The hook should be addressed by the configuration…

    I have continued to work on configuration_hook_manager. It is slowly coalescing into something that can truthfully said to compile. There are a few issues that I have to figure out, such as how to handle nested properties, and whether or not dispatching every event to every hook makes sense from a performance point of view(okay,…

    Today has been marked by some progress in eliminating some dead ends in exploring fixing the bug. Changing the merge behavior in .capture() was successful in getting the main server to start yesterday, but it broke the agent server by somehow eliminating some of the information. But I had a thought, if I just make…

    Today, with the help of the team I was able to resolve the issue with the server not being able to be stood up. The solution was to use docker-compose to tear down the previously created containers, as the database lingered without doing that and that caused errors in setup which resulted in a non-viable…

    Today has been slow because of being stuck with nothing more than my laptop. This has kept builds glacial and prevented most of the testing that I was hoping to do today. There is a simple explaination of the problems though, for whatever reason, when the capture() method is called on the server settings, it…

  • iRODS progress report Day 2(6/2/2022)

    Today I spent my time trying to get the configuration file to reload after I successfully ran the test suite. The first approach that I tried was hooking it into the Cron system. This has failed thus far because reloading the configuration on the main server causes use-after-frees (I think) due to contention over the…
