Add building a development environment to contributing documentation. This documentation shows how to build a development environment on Ubuntu 19.04 and should work for other Debian-based distros. Note that this document is not included in automated testing due to some unresolved issues with Docker in Docker on Travis CI. We'll address this in the future when we add contributing documentation to the website.

## Building a Development Environment
Update test container OS versions. Update Ubuntu 12.04 to 16.04. Version 16.04 is recently EOL but testing on an old version is beneficial. Update Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. Update Fedora 32 to 33. Version 34 would have been preferred but there were some build issues, i.e. the default shell did not work with configure, and after ksh was installed configure locked up. Add --no-install-recommends to apt-get commands to save a bit of time and space. Update test Dockerfile to run in multiple steps. This makes the container larger but also makes rebuilding after changes faster. The --squash option may be used to keep the container small. Remove obsolete casts in protocol/parallel module. These casts were included in the original migration because Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit gcc required them, but Ubuntu 16.04 32-bit gcc complains. There is no production issue here since at this point in the code the file descriptors are guaranteed to be >= 0.

Add experimental Meson build. Meson is a new build system that offers simpler syntax and superior performance to autoconf/make. In addition, Windows is supported natively. The Meson build appears complete, but currently is used only for auto-generation of code and the host build of pgbackrest. Some container upgrades will be required before Meson can be used for container builds. Also patch the Debian package to force autoconf/make rather than Meson.

Use Rocky Linux for documentation builds instead of CentOS. Since CentOS 8 will be EOL at the end of the year it makes sense to do this now. The centos:8 image is still used in documentation.xml because changes there require manual testing, which will need to be done at a later date. The changes are not user-facing, however, and can be done at any time. Also update CentOS references to RHEL since that is what we are emulating for testing purposes.

If using a RHEL-based system, the CPAN XML parser is required to run `test.pl` and `doc.pl`. Instructions for installing Docker and the XML parser can be found in the `README.md` file of the pgBackRest [doc](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/doc) directory in the section "The following is a sample RHEL 7 configuration that can be used for building the documentation". NOTE that the "Install latex (for building PDF)" section is not required since testing of the docs need only be run for HTML output.

## Coding
The following sections provide information on some important concepts needed for coding within pgBackRest.
### Memory Contexts
Update documentation/links to main branch.
2021-10-13 18:01:53 +02:00
Memory is allocated inside contexts and can be long lasting (for objects) or temporary (for functions). In general, use `OBJ_NEW_BEGIN(MyObj)` for objects and `MEM_CONTEXT_TEMP_BEGIN()` for functions. See [memContext.h](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/src/common/memContext.h) for more details and the [Coding Example](#coding-example) below.
Update contributing documentation. Add more examples of how to write code, add configuration options, test, etc.
2021-05-21 19:21:25 +02:00
### Logging
Update documentation/links to main branch.
2021-10-13 18:01:53 +02:00
Logging is used for debugging with the built-in macros `FUNCTION_LOG_*()` and `FUNCTION_TEST_*()` which are used to trace parameters passed to/returned from functions. `FUNCTION_LOG_*()` macros are used for production logging whereas `FUNCTION_TEST_*()` macros will be compiled out of production code. For functions where no parameter is valuable enough to justify the cost of debugging in production, use `FUNCTION_TEST_BEGIN()/FUNCTION_TEST_END()`, else use `FUNCTION_LOG_BEGIN(someLogLevel)/FUNCTION_LOG_END()`. See [debug.h](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/src/common/debug.h) for more details and the [Coding Example](#coding-example) below.

Update documentation/links to main branch.
2021-10-13 18:01:53 +02:00
Logging is also used for providing information to the user via the `LOG_*()` macros, such as `LOG_INFO("some informational message")` and `LOG_WARN_FMT("no prior backup exists, %s backup has been changed to full", strZ(cfgOptionDisplay(cfgOptType)))` and also via `THROW_*()` macros for throwing an error. See [log.h](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/src/common/log.h) and [error.h](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/src/common/error.h) for more details and the [Coding Example](#coding-example) below.

### Coding Example
Update documentation/links to main branch.
2021-10-13 18:01:53 +02:00
The example below is not structured like an actual implementation and is intended only to provide an understanding of some of the more common coding practices. The comments in the example are only here to explain the example and are not representative of the coding standards. Refer to the Coding Standards document ([CODING.md](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/CODING.md)) and sections above for an introduction to the concepts provided here. For an actual implementation, see [db.h](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/src/db/db.h) and [db.c](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/src/db/db.c).

#### Example: hypothetical basic object construction
```c
/*
* HEADER FILE - see db.h for a complete implementation example
*/
// Typedef the object declared in the C file
typedef struct MyObj MyObj;
// Constructor, and any functions in the header file, are all declared on one line
MyObj *myObjNew(unsigned int myData, const String *secretName);
// Declare the publicly accessible variables in a structure with Pub appended to the name
typedef struct MyObjPub // First letter upper case
{
unsigned int myData; // Contents of the myData variable
} MyObjPub;
// Declare getters and setters inline for the publicly visible variables
// Only setters require "Set" appended to the name

Refactor logging functions to never allocate memory. Allocating memory made these functions simpler but it meant that memory was leaking into the calling context when logging was enabled. It is not clear that this was an issue but it seems that trace level logging could result it a lot of memory usage depending on the use case. This also makes it possible to audit allocations returned to the calling context, which will be done in a followup commit. Also rename objToLog() to objNameToLog() since it seemed logical to name the new function objToLog().

Update contributing documentation. Add more examples of how to write code, add configuration options, test, etc.
2021-05-21 19:21:25 +02:00
/*
* C FILE - see db.c for a more complete and actual implementation example
*/
// Declare the object type
struct MyObj
{
MyObjPub pub; // Publicly accessible variables must be first and named "pub"
const String *name; // Pointer to lightweight string object - see string.h
};
// Object constructor, and any functions in the C file, have the return type and function signature on separate lines
MyObj *
myObjNew(unsigned int myData, const String *secretName)
{
FUNCTION_LOG_BEGIN(logLevelDebug); // Use FUNCTION_LOG_BEGIN with a log level for displaying in production
FUNCTION_LOG_PARAM(UINT, myData); // When log level is debug, myData variable will be logged
FUNCTION_TEST_PARAM(STRING, secretName); // FUNCTION_TEST_PARAM will not display secretName value in production logging
FUNCTION_LOG_END();
ASSERT(secretName != NULL || myData > 0); // Development-only assertions (will be compiled out of production code)
MyObj *this = NULL; // Declare the object in the parent memory context: it will live only as long as the parent
Allow additional memory to be allocated with a mem context. The primary benefit is that objects can allocate memory for their struct with the context, which saves an additional allocation and makes it easier to read context/allocation dumps. Also, the memory context does not need to be stored with the object since it can be determined using the object pointer. Object pointers cannot be moved, so this means whatever additional memory is allocated cannot be resized. That makes the additional memory ideal for object structs, but not so much for allocating a list that might change size. Mem contexts can no longer be reused since they will probably be the wrong size so their memory is freed on memContextFree(). This still means fewer allocations and frees overall. Interfaces still need to be freed by mem context so the old objMove() and objFree() have been preserved as objMoveContext() and objFreeContext(). This will be addressed in a future commit.

Rename strNew() to strNewZ() and add parameter-less strNew(). Replace all instances of strNew("") with strNew() and use strNewZ() for non-empty zero-terminated strings. Besides saving a useless parameter, this will allow smarter memory allocation in a future commit by signaling intent, in general, to append or not. In the tests use STRDEF() or VARSTRDEF() where more appropriate rather than blindly replacing with strNewZ(). Also replace strLstAdd() with strLstAddZ() where appropriate for the same reason.

## Testing
A list of all possible test combinations can be viewed by running:
```
pgbackrest/test/test.pl --dry-run
```
While some files are automatically generated during `make`, others are generated by running the test harness as follows:
```
pgbackrest/test/test.pl --gen-only
```

Examples of test runs are provided in the following sections. There are several important options for running a test:
- `--dry-run` - without any other options, this will list all the available tests
- `--module` - identifies the module in which the test is located
- `--test` - the actual test set to be run
- `--run` - a number identifying the run within a test if testing a single run rather than the entire test
- `--vm-out` - displays the test output (helpful for monitoring the progress)

pgbackrest-dev => Run a test
```
Remove test.pl --smart, --dev, and --dev-test options. --smart is now the default mode. Since --dev is now just an alias for --no-optimize, remove it. --dev-test has been a noop for a while, so this seems like a good time to remove it. Also make the C auto-generator skip writing files that have not changed to avoid updating the timestamp.

Update test container OS versions. Update Ubuntu 12.04 to 16.04. Version 16.04 is recently EOL but testing on an old version is beneficial. Update Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. Update Fedora 32 to 33. Version 34 would have been preferred but there were some build issues, i.e. the default shell did not work with configure, and after ksh was installed configure locked up. Add --no-install-recommends to apt-get commands to save a bit of time and space. Update test Dockerfile to run in multiple steps. This makes the container larger but also makes rebuilding after changes faster. The --squash option may be used to keep the container small. Remove obsolete casts in protocol/parallel module. These casts were included in the original migration because Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit gcc required them, but Ubuntu 16.04 32-bit gcc complains. There is no production issue here since at this point in the code the file descriptors are guaranteed to be >= 0.

Build a container to run tests. The vm must be pre-configured but a variety are available. A vagrant file is provided in the test directory as an example of running in a virtual environment. The vm names are all three character abbreviations, e.g. `u20` for Ubuntu 20.04.

pgbackrest-dev => Build a VM
```
Update test container OS versions. Update Ubuntu 12.04 to 16.04. Version 16.04 is recently EOL but testing on an old version is beneficial. Update Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. Update Fedora 32 to 33. Version 34 would have been preferred but there were some build issues, i.e. the default shell did not work with configure, and after ksh was installed configure locked up. Add --no-install-recommends to apt-get commands to save a bit of time and space. Update test Dockerfile to run in multiple steps. This makes the container larger but also makes rebuilding after changes faster. The --squash option may be used to keep the container small. Remove obsolete casts in protocol/parallel module. These casts were included in the original migration because Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit gcc required them, but Ubuntu 16.04 32-bit gcc complains. There is no production issue here since at this point in the code the file descriptors are guaranteed to be >= 0.

Each module is separated by a line of asterisks (*) and each test within is separated by a line of dashes (-). In the example below, the module is `command` and the unit test is `check`. The number of calls to `testBegin()` in a unit test file will dictate the number following `total:`, in this case 4. Under `coverage:`, the list of files that will be tested.

The [harnessConfig.h](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/test/src/common/harnessConfig.h) describes a list of functions that should be used when configuration options are required for a command being tested. Options are set in a `StringList` which must be defined and passed to the `HRN_CFG_LOAD()` macro with the command. For example, the following will set up a test to run `pgbackrest --repo-path=test/test-0/repo info` command on multiple repositories, one of which is encrypted:

StringList *argList = strLstNew(); // Create an empty string list
Remove TEST_PATH_REPO, TEST_PATH_PG, and TEST_PATH_SPOOL constants. It seems better to use TEST_PATH in combination with a constant string rather than have a number of different path constants. This improves readability and reduces confusion about which constant should be used.

Replace harnessCfgLoad*() functions with HRN_CFG_LOAD() macro. HRN_CFG_LOAD() handles the majority of test configuration loads and has various options for special cases. It was not clear when to use harnessCfgLoadRaw() vs harnessCfgLoad(). Now "raw" functionality is granular and enabled by parameters, e.g. noStd.

Sometimes it is desirable to store or manipulate files before or during a test and then confirm the contents. The [harnessStorage.h](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/test/src/common/harnessStorage.h) file contains macros (e.g. `HRN_STORAGE_PUT` and `TEST_STORAGE_GET`) for doing this. In addition, `HRN_INFO_PUT` is convenient for writing out info files (archive.info, backup.info, backup.manifest) since it will automatically add header and checksum information.

Remove support for PostgreSQL 9.0/9.1/9.2. Our new policy is to support ten versions of PostgreSQL, the five supported releases and the last five EOL releases.

Update InfoPg to read/write control versions for the history in backup.info, since we can no longer rely on the mappings being available. In theory this could have been an issue after removing 8.3/8.4 if anybody was using a version that old.

### Running a Unit Test
**Code Coverage**
Unit tests are run for all files that are listed in `define.yaml` and a coverage report generated for each file listed under the tag `coverage:`. Note that some files are listed in multiple `coverage:` sections for a module; in this case, each test for the file being modified should be specified for the module in which the file exists (e.g. `--module=storage --test=posix --test=gcs`, etc.) or, alternatively, simply run the module without the `--test` option. It is recommended that a `--vm` be specified since running the same test for multiple vms is unnecessary for coverage. The following example would run the test set from the **define.yaml** section detailed above.

Remove test.pl --smart, --dev, and --dev-test options. --smart is now the default mode. Since --dev is now just an alias for --no-optimize, remove it. --dev-test has been a noop for a while, so this seems like a good time to remove it. Also make the C auto-generator skip writing files that have not changed to avoid updating the timestamp.

2021-05-21 19:21:25 +02:00
> **NOTE:** Not all systems perform at the same speed, so if a test is timing out, try rerunning with another vm.
Because a test run has not been specified, a coverage report will be generated and written to the local file system under the pgBackRest directory `test/result/coverage/lcov/index.html` and a file with only the highlighted code that has not been covered will be written to `test/result/coverage/coverage.html`.
If 100 percent code coverage has not been achieved, an error message will be displayed, for example: `ERROR: [125]: c module command/check/check is not fully covered`
**Debugging with files**
Sometimes it is useful to look at files that were generated during the test. The default for running any test is that, at the start/end of the test, the test harness will clean up all files and directories created. To override this behavior, a single test run must be specified and the option `--no-cleanup` provided. Again, continuing with the check command, from **define.yaml** above, there are four tests. Below, test one will be run and nothing will be cleaned up so that the files and directories in `test/test-0` can be inspected.
```
Remove test.pl --smart, --dev, and --dev-test options. --smart is now the default mode. Since --dev is now just an alias for --no-optimize, remove it. --dev-test has been a noop for a while, so this seems like a good time to remove it.

### Understanding Test Output
The following is a small sample of a typical test output.
```
run 8 - expireTimeBasedBackup()
run 8/1 ------------- L2285 no current backups
000.002s L2298 empty backup.info
000.009s 000.007s L2300 no backups to expire
```
**run 8 - expireTimeBasedBackup()** - indicates the run number (8) within the module and the parameter provided to testBegin, e.g. `testBegin("expireTimeBasedBackup()")`
**run 8/1 ------------- L2285 no current backups** - this is the first test (1) in run 8 which is the `TEST_TITLE("no current backups");` at line number 2285.
**000.002s L2298 empty backup.info** - the first number, 000.002s, is the time in seconds that the test started from the beginning of the run. L2298 is the line number of the test and `empty backup.info` is the test comment.
**000.009s 000.007s L2300 no backups to expire** - again, 000.009s, is the time in seconds that the test started from the beginning of the run. The second number, 000.007s, is the run time of the **previous** test (i.e. `empty backup.info` test took 000.007 seconds to execute). L2300 is the line number of the test and `no backups to expire` is the test comment.

Add .inc extension to C files included in other C files. These files were never intended to be compiled on their own so the .c extension was a bit misleading. In particular Meson does not like .c files that are not intended to be compiled independently. Leave header files as is since they are already protected against being included more than once and are never expected to be compiled.
2022-05-31 22:06:41 +02:00
Options can be added to a command or multiple commands. Options can be configuration file only, command-line only or valid for both. Once an option is successfully added, the `config.auto.h` and `parse.auto.c.inc` files will automatically be generated by the build system.

There are detailed comment blocks above each section that explain the rules for defining commands and options. Regarding options, there are two types: 1) command line only, and 2) configuration file. With the exception of secrets, all configuration file options can be passed on the command line. To configure an option for the configuration file, the `section:` key must be present.
Update documentation/links to main branch.
2021-10-13 18:01:53 +02:00
The `option:` section is broken into sub-sections by a simple comment divider (e.g. `# Repository options`) under which the options are organized alphabetically by option name. To better explain this section, two hypothetical examples will be discussed. For more details, see [config.yaml](https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/blob/main/src/build/config/config.yaml).

Note that `section:` is not present thereby making this a command-line only option defined as follows:
- `set` - the name of the option
- `type` - the type of the option. Valid values for types are: `boolean`, `hash`, `integer`, `list`, `path`, `size`, `string`, and `time`
- `command` - list each command for which the option is valid. If a command is not listed, then the option is not valid for the command and an error will be thrown if it is attempted to be used for that command. In this case the valid commands are `backup` and `restore`.
- `backup` - details the requirements for the `--set` option for the `backup` command. It is dependent on the option `--stanza`, meaning it is only allowed to be specified for the `backup` command if the `--stanza` option has been specified. And `required: false` indicates that the `--set` option is never required, even with the dependency.
- `restore` - details the requirements for the `--set` option for the `restore` command. Since `required:` is omitted, it is not required to be set by the user but it is required by the command and will default to `latest` if it has not been specified by the user.

- `group` - indicates that this option is part of the `repo` group of indexed options and therefore will follow the indexing rules e.g. `repo1-test-type`.
Fix links and update child process example. Removed colon from example titles to fix links, fixed test.yml link, and updated the example for the parent/child test process to use the latest macros instead of sleep().

- `default` - sets a default for the option if the option is not provided when the command is run. The default can be global (as it is here) or it can be specified for a specific command in the command section (as in [Example 1](#example-1-hypothetical-command-line-only-option) above).

- `command` - list each command for which the option is valid. If a command is not listed, then the option is not valid for the command and an error will be thrown if it is attempted to be used for that command. In this case the valid commands are `backup` and `restore`.
- `command-role` - defines the processes for which the option is valid. `main` indicates the option will be used by the main process and not be passed on to other local/remote processes.
At compile time, the `config.auto.h` file will be generated to contain the constants used for options in the code. For the C enums, any dashes in the option name will be removed, camel-cased and prefixed with `cfgOpt`, e.g. `repo-path` becomes `cfgOptRepoPath`.
Migrate command-line help generation to C. Command-line help is now generated at build time so it does not need to be committed. This reduces churn on commits that add configuration and/or update the help. Since churn is no longer an issue, help.auto.c is bzip2 compressed to save space in the binary. The Perl config parser (Data.pm) has been moved to doc/lib since the Perl build path is no longer required. Likewise doc/xml/reference.xml has been moved to src/build/help/help.xml since it is required at build time.

All options must be documented or the system will error during the build. To add an option, find the command section identified by `command id="COMMAND"` section where `COMMAND` is the name of the command (e.g. `expire`) or, if the option is used by more than one command and the definition for the option is the same for all of the commands, the `operation-general title="General Options"` section.
To add an option, add the following to the `<option-list>` section; if it does not exist, then wrap the following in `<option-list>` `</option-list>`. This example uses the boolean option `force` of the `restore` command. Simply replace that with your new option and the appropriate `summary`, `text` and `example`.

If Docker is installed, it will be used by the documentation generator to execute the code elements while building the documentation, therefore, the `--no-exe` should be omitted, (i.e. `pgbackrest/doc/doc.pl --output=html`). `--no-cache` may be used to force a full build even when no code elements have changed since the last build. `--pre` will reuse the container definitions from the prior build and saves time during development.
