The primary source for project info is now src/version.h.
The pgBackRestDoc::ProjectInfo module loads the project info from src/version.h at runtime so there is no need to update it.
This is consistent with the way BackRest and BackRest test were renamed way back in 18fd2523.
More modules will be moving to pgBackRestDoc soon so renaming now reduces churn later.
This directory was once the home of the production Perl code but since f0ef73db this is no longer true.
Move the modules to test in most cases, except where the module is expected to be useful for the doc engine beyond the expected lifetime of the Perl test code (about a year if all goes well).
The exception is pgBackRest::Version which requires more work to migrate since it is used to track pgBackRest versions.
The local, remote, archive-get-async, and archive-push-async commands were used to run functionality that was not directly available to the user. Unfortunately that meant they would not pick up options from the command that the user expected, e.g. backup, archive-get, etc.
Remove the internal commands and add roles which allow pgBackRest to determine what functionality is required without implementing special commands. This way the options are loaded from the expected command section.
Since remote is no longer a specific command with its own options, more manipulation is required when calling remote. This might be something we can improve in the config system but it may be worth leaving as is because it is a one-off, for now at least.
Allow commands to be skipped by default in the command help but still work if help is requested for the command directly. There may be other uses for the flag in the future.
Update help for ls now that it is exposed.
These constants are easier than using cfgOptionName() and cfgCommandName() and lead to cleaner code and simpler to construct messages.
String versions are provided. Eventually all the strings will be used in the config structures, but for now they are useful to avoid wrapping with strNew().
When a repository server is configured, commands that modify the repository acquire a remote lock as well as a local lock for extra protection against multiple writers.
Instead of the custom logic used in Perl, make remote locking part of the command configuration.
This also means that the C remote needs the stanza since it is used to construct the lock name. We may need to revisit this at a later date.
This behavior allowed a command like this to run without error:
pgbackrest backup --stanza=db full
Even though it actually performed an incremental backup in most circumstances because the `full` parameter was ignored.
Instead, output an error and exit.
Suggested by Jason O'Donnell.
Now only two types of locks can be taken: archive and backup. Most commands use one or the other but the stanza-* commands acquire both locks. This provides better protection than the old command-based locking scheme.
Move command begin to C except when it must be called after another command in Perl (e.g. expire after backup). Command begin logs correctly for complex data types like hash and list. Specify which commands will log to file immediately and set the default log level for log messages that are common to all commands. File logging is initiated from C.
db-path was the only option with a hint so the feature seemed wasteful. All missing stanza options now output the same hint without needing configuration.
