2019-06-03Finish the env re-implementationSergey Poznyakoff1
* NEWS: Document the "env" statement and the PIES_MASTER_PID environment variable. Version 1.3.91 * configure.ac: Version 1.3.91 * doc/pies.texi: Document the new "env" statement syntax. Provide instructions on how to convert legacy "env" statement to the new form. * lib/envop.c (environ_unset): Take reference value as argument. If supplied, unset the variable only if its value matches the reference one. * lib/envop.h (environ_unset): Change proto. * src/pies.c (parse_legacy_env): Minor changes. (_cb_env_unset): Allow to specify value. * src/progman.c (run_command): Define PIES_MASTER_PID. * tests/env.at: Check the legacy env syntax. * tests/envop.at: Additional checks.
2019-06-02Speed up tests.Sergey Poznyakoff1
Presence of the ~/.netrc file can slow down execution because of eventual DNS calls in hostcmp. Provide an option to disable netrc parsing and use it in tests. * src/piesctl-cl.opt: New option: --no-netrc. * doc/pies.texi: Document --no-netrc * src/piesctl.c (shttp_connect): Don't read ~/.netrc if given --no-netrc. * tests/env.at: Pass --no-netrc to piesctl. * tests/respawn.at: Likewise. * tests/shell.at: Likewise. * tests/shutdown.at: Likewise. * tests/startup.at: Likewise.
2019-05-31Provide an option to run commands via sh -cSergey Poznyakoff1
The new flag "shell" instructs pies to run the command marked with it as '/bin/sh -c $command'. Alternative shell can be supplied ising the 'program' statement. This is useful if the command line uses shell-specific features (command or variable expansion, redirection, pipes, etc.) This commit also fixes a bug in the 'env' statement handling: a single argument with embedded whitespaces was undergoing word splitting and thus incorrectly handled as multiple arguments. * NEWS: Document changes. * doc/pies.texi: Likewise. * src/comp.c (component_free): Free command. (component_finish): Split command into argv/argc as directed by the CF_SHELL flag. * src/pies.c (_cb_command): Remove. Functionality moved to component_finish(). (_cb_env): Bugfix. Don't split arguments. * src/pies.h (CF_SHELL): New flag. (component) <command>: New member. * tests/Makefile.am: Add new tests. * tests/testsuite.at: Add new tests. * tests/aux/respawn: Change default timeout to 1 second. * tests/respawn.at: Minor change. * tests/shell.at: New test.

2016-03-05ACL reference statements.Sergey Poznyakoff1
All ACL keywords can be used in simple statement as well as in block form. As simple statements, they take a name of an already defined named ACL.
