Added ability to adjust the number of events the TaskRunner keeps as
there's no way to observe all events otherwise.
Task events differ slightly from 0.8 because 0.9 emits Terminated every
time a task exits instead of only when it exits on its own (not due to
restart or kill).
0.9 does not emit Killing/Killed for restarts like 0.8 which seems fine
as `Restart Signaled/Terminated/Restarting` is more descriptive.
Original v0.8 events emitted:
```
expected := []string{
"Received",
"Task Setup",
"Started",
"Restart Signaled",
"Killing",
"Killed",
"Restarting",
"Started",
"Restart Signaled",
"Killing",
"Killed",
"Restarting",
"Started",
"Restart Signaled",
"Killing",
"Killed",
"Not Restarting",
}
```
This seems to fix TestClientAllocations_GarbageCollectAll_Remote being
flaky.
This test confuses me. It joins 2 servers, but then goes out of its way
to make sure the test client only interacts with one. There are not
enough comments for me to figure out the precise assertions this test is
trying to make.
A good old fashioned wait-for-the-client-to-register seems to fix the
flakiness though. The error was that the node could not be found, so
this makes some sense. However, lots of other tests seem to use the same
"wait for node" logic and don't appear to be flaky, so who knows why
waiting fixes this one.
Passes with -race.
Given that the values will rarely change, specially considering that any
changes would be backward incompatible change. As such, it's simpler to
keep syncing manually in the rare occasion and avoid the syncing code
overhead.
Embed pointer conversion functions in the API package to avoid
unnecessary package dependency. `helper` package imports more
dependencies relevant for internal use (e.g. `hcl`).
nomad/structs is an internal package and imports many libraries (e.g.
raft, codec) that are not relevant to api clients, and may cause
unnecessary dependency pain (e.g. `github.com/ugorji/go/codec`
version is very old now).
Here, we add a code generator that imports the relevant constants from
`nomad/structs`.
I considered using this approach for other structs, but didn't find a
quick viable way to reduce duplication. `nomad/structs` use values as
struct fields (e.g. `string`), while `api` uses value pointer (e.g.
`*string`) instead. Also, sometimes, `api` structs contain deprecated
fields or additional documentation, so simple copy-paste doesn't work.
For these reasons, I opt to keep the status quo.
v0.9.0-dev started emitting a Terminated event every time a task process
exited. While this wasn't true in previous versions, it's a useful task
event because it's the only place for job operators to view the task's
exit code.
This behavior is asserted in the e2e/taskevents tests.
