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.
Due to https://github.com/tsenart/deadcode/issues/3 we can't specify
these consts on their own. This moves them into the _platform_test.go
files to avoid creating a package that only exposes a couple of values.
