When enabled, lines like "# interval-start 1234567890123456" and "#
interval-end 1234567890123456" will be added to the data output. Note
that there may be an "interval-end" timestamp followed by an identical
"interval-start" timestamp, if the response at the nilmdb level was
split up into multiple chunks.
In general, assume contiguous data if previous_interval_end ==
new_interval_start.
Added new flag "-R" to command line to perform an automatic removal.
This should be the last of the ways in which a single command could
block the nilmdb thread for a long time.
The server buffers the string and passes it to nilmdb. Nilmdb passes
the string to bulkdata. Bulkdata uses the rocket interface to parse
it in chunks, as necessary. Everything gets passed back up and
everyone is happy.
Currently, only pyrocket implements append_string.
This is a pretty big change that will render existing clients unable
to modify the database, but it's important that we use POST or PUT
instead of GET for anything that may change state, in case this
is ever put behind a cache.
This decorator makes a class always be serialized, including its
instantiation, in a separate thread. This is an improvement over
the old Serializer() object wrapper, which didn't put the
instantiation into the new thread.
Previously, we could get empty intervals anyway by having a non-empty
interval and removing a smaller interval around each piece of data.
Turns out that empty intervals are OK and needed in some situations,
so explicitly allow and test for it.
Specifically, switch from using global configuration and several apps,
to using application-specific configuration with a single app. This
should hopefully make it easier to plug this into another
WSGI-compliant server someday, and also silences some startup warnings
about missing application configs.
Now nilmdb.client, nilmdb.server, nilmdb.cmdline, and nilmdb.utils
are each their own modules, and there is a little bit more of a
logical separation between them. Various changes scattered throughout
to fix naming (for example, nilmdb.nilmdb.NilmDBError is now
nilmdb.server.errors.NilmDBError).
Reduced usage of "from __future__ import absolute_import" as much
as possible. It's still needed for the functions in the nilmdb/server
directory to be able to import the nilmdb module rather than the
nilmdb.py script.
This should hopefully ease future packaging a bit.
Use numbered subdirectories to avoid having too many files in one dir.
Add appropriate tests.
Also fix an issue where the mmap_open LRU cache could inappropriately
open a file twice because it was using the optional "newsize"
parameter as a key -- now lrucache can be given a slice object that
describes which arguments are important.
