- Merge CommitTask daemon into PullLocal daemon. This is another artifact of past instability (and order-dependent parsers). We still publish to the timeline, although this was the last consumer. Long term we'll probably delete timeline and move to webhooks, since everyone who has asked about this stuff has been eager to trade away the durability and ordering of the timeline for the ease of use of webhooks. There's also no reason to timeline this anymore since parsing is no longer order-dependent.

lighttpd could support rules like this, to add efficiency:
# Aggressively cache all static files
$HTTP["url"] =~ "\.(jpg|gif|png|css|js|htc)" {
expire.url = ( "" => "access 1 years" )
}
# Compress files for faster transfer
compress.filetype = (
"text/plain",
"text/html",
"text/javascript",
"text/css",
"text/xml"
)
compress.cache-dir = <would need to set to something>?
I don't know if that is necessary or useful. Probably not a good idea
at this point, where the code is changing so rapidly: a 1 year cache
of javascript code could cause trouble. And i think the default
lighttpd.conf already compresses text/html, text/plain, text/css, and
application/x-javascript by default, so we're ok there (could add
text/javascript and text/xml, I guess).
Summary:
This addresses three issues with the current patch management system:
# Two people developing at the same time often pick the same SQL patch number, and then have to go rename it. The system catches this, but it's silly.
# Second/third-party developers can't use the same system to manage auxiliary storage they may want to add.
# There's no way to build mock databases for unit tests that need to do reads.
To resolve these things, you can now name your patches whatever you want and conflicts are just merge conflicts, which are less of a pain to fix than filename conflicts.
Dependencies are now a DAG, with implicit dependencies created on the prior patch if no dependencies are specified. Developers can add new concrete subclasses of `PhabricatorSQLPatchList` to add storage management, and define the dependency branchpoint of their patches so they apply in the correct order (although, generally, they should not depend on the mainline patches, presumably).
The commands `storage upgrade --namespace test1234` and `storage destroy --namespace test1234` will allow unit tests to build and destroy MySQL storage.
A "quickstart" mode allows an upgrade from scratch in ~1200ms. Destruction takes about 200ms. These seem like fairily reasonable costs to actually use in tests. Building from scratch patch-by-patch takes about 6000ms.
Test Plan:
- Created new databases from scratch with and without quickstart in a separate test namespace. Pointed the webapp at the test namespaces, browsed around, everything looked good.
- Compared quickstart and no-quickstart dump states, they're identical except for mysqldump timestamps and a few similar things.
- Upgraded a legacy database to the new storage format.
- Destroyed / dumped storage.

Summary:
We have a lot of cases where we store object relationships, but it's all kind of messy and custom. Some particular problems:
- We go to great lengths to enforce order stability in Differential revisions, but the implementation is complex and inelegant.
- Some relationships are stored on-object, so we can't pull the inverses easily. For example, Maniphest shows child tasks but not parent tasks.
- I want to add more of these and don't want to continue building custom stuff.
- UIs like the "attach stuff to other stuff" UI need custom branches for each object type.
- Stuff like "allow commits to close tasks" is notrivial because of nonstandard metadata storage.
Provide an association-like "edge" framework to fix these problems. This is nearly identical to associations, with a few differences:
- I put edge metadata in a separate table and don't load it by default, to keep edge rows small and allow large metadata if necessary. The on-edge metadata seemed to get abused a lot at Facebook.
- I put a 'seq' column on the edges to ensure they have an explicit, stable ordering within a source and type.
This isn't actually used anywhere yet, but my first target is attaching commits to tasks for T904.
Test Plan: Made a mock page that used Editor and Query. Verified adding and removing edges, overwriting edges, writing and loading edge data, sequence number generation.

Summary:
Rough cut of Drydock. This is very basic and doesn't do much of use yet (it
//does// allocate EC2 machines as host resources and expose interfaces to them),
but I think the overall structure is more or less reasonable.
== Interfaces
Vision: Applications interact with Drydock resources through DrydockInterfaces,
like **command**, **filesystem** and **httpd** interfaces. Each interface allows
applications to perform some kind of operation on the resource, like executing
commands, reading/writing files, or configuring a web server. Interfaces have a
concrete, specific API:
// Filesystem Interface
$fs = $lease->getInterface('filesystem'); // Constants, some day?
$fs->writeFile('index.html', 'hello world!');
// Command Interface
$cmd = $lease->getInterface('command');
echo $cmd->execx('uptime');
// HTTPD Interface
$httpd = $lease->getInterface('httpd');
$httpd->restart();
Interfaces are mostly just stock, although installs might add new interfaces if
they expose different ways to interact with resources (for instance, a resource
might want to expose a new 'MongoDB' interface or whatever).
Currently: We have like part of a command interface.
== Leases
Vision: Leases keep track of which resources are in use, and what they're being
used for. They allow us to know when we need to allocate more resources (too
many sandcastles on the existing hosts, e.g.) and when we can release resources
(because they are no longer being used). They also give applications something
to hold while resources are being allocated.
// EXAMPLE: How this should work some day.
$allocator = new DrydockAllocator();
$allocator->setResourceType('sandcastle');
$allocator->setAttributes(
array(
'diffID' => $diff->getID(),
));
$lease = $allocator->allocate();
$diff->setSandcastleLeaseID($lease->getID());
// ...
if ($lease->getStatus() == DrydockLeaseStatus::STATUS_ACTIVE) {
$sandcastle_link = $lease->getInterface('httpd')->getURI('/');
} else {
$sandcastle_link = 'Still building your sandcastle...';
}
echo "Sandcastle for this diff: ".$sandcastle_link;
// EXAMPLE: How this actually works now.
$allocator = new DrydockAllocator();
$allocator->setResourceType('host');
// NOTE: Allocation is currently synchronous but will be task-driven soon.
$lease = $allocator->allocate();
Leases are completely stock, installs will not define new lease types.
Currently: Leases exist and work but are very very basic.
== Resources
Vision: Resources represent some actual thing we've put somewhere, whether it's
a host, a block of storage, a webroot, or whatever else. Applications interact
through resources by acquiring leases to them, and then getting interfaces
through these leases. The lease acquisition process has a side effect of
allocating new resources if a lease can't be acquired on existing resources
(e.g., the application wants storage but all storage resources are full) and
things are configured to autoscale.
Resources may themselves acquire leases in order to allocate. For instance, a
storage resource might first acquire a lease to a host resource. A 'test
scaffold' resource might lease a storage resource and a mysql resource.
Not all resources are auto-allocate: the entry-level version of Drydock is that
you manually allocate a couple boxes and configure them through the web console.
Then, e.g., 'storage' / 'webroot' resources allocate on top of them, but the
host pool itself does not autoscale.
Resources are completely stock, they are abstract shells representing any
arbitrary thing.
Currently: Resource exist ('host' only) but are very very basic.
== Blueprints
Vision: Blueprints contain instructions for building interfaces to, (possibly)
allocating, updating, managing, and destroying a specific type of resource in a
specific location. One way to think of them is that they are scripts for
creating and deleting resources. For example, the LocalHost, RemoteHost and
EC2Host blueprints can all manage 'host' resources.
Eventually, we will support more types of resources (storage, webroot,
sandcastle, test scaffold, phacility deployment) and more providers for resource
types, some of which will be in the Phabricator mainline and some of which will
be custom.
Blueprints are very custom and specific to application types, so installs will
define new blueprints if they are making significant use of Drydock.
Currently: They exist but have few capabilities. The stock blueprints do nearly
nothing useful. There is a technically functional blueprint for host allocation
in EC2.
== Allocator

Allow the registation of event listeners which can react to various application
events (currently, task editing).
I'll doc this a bit better but I wanted to see if anyone had massive objections
to doing this or the broad approach. The specific problem I want to address is
that one client wants to do a bunch of routing for tasks via email, so it's
either build a hook, or have them override most of ManiphestReplyHandler, or
something slightly more general like this.

This is pretty straightforward, except:
- We need to request read/write access to the address book to get the account
ID (which we MUST have) and real name, email and account name (which we'd like
to have). This is way more access than we should need, but there's apparently no
"get_loggedin_user_basic_information" type of call in the Google API suite (or,
at least, I couldn't find one).
- We can't get the profile picture or profile URI since there's no Plus API
access and Google users don't have meaningful public pages otherwise.
- Google doesn't save the fact that you've authorized the app, so every time
you want to login you need to reaffirm that you want to give us silly amounts of
access. Phabricator sessions are pretty long-duration though so this shouldn't
be a major issue.

Summary:
Provide a {T123} syntax which pulls in the entire name of an object, not just a
link to it. A major use for this is organizing projects using wiki pages. Since
handle links show object status now, this lets you organize stuff in an ad-hoc
way and get a reasonable overview of it. We can make handles richer in the
future, too.
The performance on this isn't perfect (it adds some potential single gets) but I
think it's okay for now and I don't want to make remarkup engine even more
complex until the preprocess/postprocess stuff has had a chance to settle and
I'm more confident it works.
In Differential and Maniphest we'll also incorrectly cache the object
state/name, but that'll fix itself once I move the cache code to use
preprocess/postprocess correctly.

Summary:
Single brackets are getting some troublesome false positives in Facebook's
install. Particularly, there's a weird convention at Facebook of tagging diffs
by putting stuff like "[perf]" or "[chat]" in the title, although this isn't
turned into structured data at any stage. When commits appear in Diffusion, we
currently link such ad-hoc tags to Phriction.
Wikipedia uses double-bracket sytnax, as do many other wikis, so this seems like
a reasonable burden to place on the lightweightness of the markup. The
alternative is selectively disabling Phriction markup in some interfaces, but
I'd rather allow integration in commit messages and just guard the syntax more
closely.
(I'm not providing any sort of migration plan since this landed less than a week
ago and I'm pretty confident no one has built a huge wiki yet, but I added a
CHANGELOG note.)

Summary:
We already support this (and Facebook uses it) but it is difficult to configure
and you have to write a bunch of code. Instead, provide a simple flag.
See the documentation changes for details, but when this flag is enabled we send
one email with a reply-to like "D2+public+23hf91fh19fh@phabricator.example.com".
Anyone can reply to this, and we figure out who they are based on their "From"
address instead of a unique hash. This is less secure, but a reasonable tradeoff
in many cases.
This also has the advantage over a naive implementation of at least doing object
hash validation.
@jungejason: I don't think this affects Facebook's implementation but this is an
area where we've had problems in the past, so watch out for it when you deploy.
Also note that you must set "metamta.public-replies" to true since Maniphest now
looks for that key specifically before going into public reply mode; it no
longer just tests for a public reply address being generateable (since it can
always generate one now).
Test Plan:
Swapped my local install in and out of public reply mode and commented on
objects. Got expected email behavior. Replied to public and private email
addresses.
Attacked public addresses by using them when the install was configured to
disallow them and by altering the hash and the from address. All this stuff was
rejected.
