They somehow messed up with type hints what made pyright unhappy.
To solve it we explicitly pass the Group class to the group() decorator.
In addition to that bump pyright version.
now it checks that inside square brackets there is indeed IPv6.
In addition to that fix a little issue in the function itself so it returns exactly the same result as psycopg2.extensions.parse_dsn().

- the `_in_fligh` attribute is accessed from multiple threads and must be protected with mutex when it is changed
- allow adding tasks for `_in_fligh.group` from the `sync_pg_dist_node()` method when timeout is reached. Not doing so might result is indefinite transaction if REST API request from worker node failed.
Starting from 1.27 there is containerd process, which also uses k3s binary and being detected by pidof. Therefore we will search for "k3s server" string in the process list instead of just "k3s".
it helps to get rid of recurring patterns:
```python
retry.deadline = retry.stoptime - time.time()
if retry.deadline < XXX:
raise Exception(...) or return False
```
pass reference to a last known leader object in order to avoid obtaining it from the `AbstractDCS.cluster` cache.
This change is useful for Consul, Etcd3 and Zookeeper implementations.
It didn't took into account the fact that we can get a new lease after changing a TTL. In this case we have to update the exiting leader key with the new lease.
To solve it we introduce the on transaction 'failure' callback. The whole workflow looks like (schematically):
```python
txn(
compare=(old_value == self._name)),
success=put(self.leader_path, self._name, self._lease),
failure=txn(
compare=(create_revision == '0'),
success=put(self.leader_path, self._name, self._lease)
)
)
```
The problem was introduced in d98d6d0b02c9cc67464a7b1b31b1c5570c26e12d
- Always pass etcd3 key revision as a string
- Make sure the leader key isn't unconditionally overwritten. It may happen that the leader heart-beat loop didn't run properly and the session has expired. In this case the leader may create a new session and a new leader key. But, there are chances that the other node already created a leader key and we don't want to overwrite it.
- Try to sync HA loops between nodes by adding 0.5 seconds to timeout on non-leader nodes
Make it return the new `SyncState` object in order to avoid reading the new cluster state in the Ha.process_sync_replication().
Now it is a small optimization, but it will become very handy in the quorum commit feature.
- make parse_sync_standby_names() return NamedTuple instead of dict
- fix little issue in Postgresql.reset_cluster_info_state(), it should check global_config independently from cluster and cluster.config
- added pyrightconfig.json with typeCheckingMode=strict
- added type hints to all files except api.py
- added type stubs for dns, etcd, consul, kazoo, pysyncobj and other modules
- added type stubs for psycopg2 and urllib3 with some little fixes
- fixes most of the issues reported by pyright
- remaining issues will be addressed later, along with enabling CI linting task
Sometimes MacOS workers are so slow that Postgres shutdown might take more than 30s-40s, what breaks a test with replica reinit in parallel with the primary restart, because basebackup() does only two attempts and in a pause the replica remains running with empty PGDATA.
In addition to that increase timeouts in ignore_slots test.

1. make `SyncHandler.current_state()` return `CaseInsensitiveSet` instead of `list` objects.
2. take `sync_node_count` and `sync_node_maxlag` from the `Postgresql._global_config` instead of passing them as arguments.
3. Make `AbstractDCS.write_sync_state()` accept any `Collection`-like objects.
For now it implements:
- CaseInsensitiveDict()
- CaseInsensitiveSet()
Update `patroni.postgresql.sync.parse_sync_standby_names()` to use `CaseInsensitiveSet()` instead of `CaseInsensitiveDict()`
despite being EOL the number of downloads from pypi for 3.6 is on the first place, hence we need to support it.
Fixed a couple of problems in tests:
1. pytest complains about `call` imported from mock, mock.call() is fine
2. one test of Citus intergration was broken
Previously it used to compare between the leader and sync_standbys, while in some cases (actually most of them) the leader should be excluded.
This commit makes `matches()` method flexible:
1. The leader will be included to comparison only if requested
2. checks will be performed as case insensitive (like PG does)
Besides that, everywhere in code start using `cluster.sync.matches()` instead of `name in cluster.sync.members`.
It was possible to have it empty if the all cluster keys are missing in DCS. In this case the `Cluster` object was manually created with all values set to `None` or `[]` (including sync).
It already resulted in #2217, which is in fact wasn't a correct fix.
In order to solve it and reduce code duplication we introduce `Cluster.empty()` and `SyncState.empty()` methods, which will create corresponding empty objects and start using `Cluster.empty()` from all places where the empty `Cluster` object was manually created.
If communication with etcd nodes failed it is logical to start from scratch, from nodes that are listed in the config. But, it could happen that config is in fact outdated and all nodes in the real cluster were replaced.
Previously we used to track whether config file was changed, which turned out not to work in all possible cases.
The new strategy is a bit more different - if communication with all nodes failed we will continue keeping the last know topology and at the same time will try to figure out the new one by merging two lists together, the cached list and the list from the config file.
We made incorrect assumption that `citus_set_coordinator_host()` will trigger `pg_dist_node` sync. Instead we should also use `citus_update_node()` and call `citus_set_coordinator_host()` only during the bootstrap.
Adjust behave tests to verify that coordinator failover is visible on workers.
Configuration parameter is `kubernetes.retriable_http_codes` or `PATRONI_KUBERNETES_RETRIABLE_HTTP_CODES` environment variable.
These status codes are added to the default list of 500, 503, 504.

It could happen that Patroni is started up before PGDATA was mounted. In this case Patroni can't determine major Postgres version from PG_VERSION file. Later, when PGDATA is mounted, Patroni was trying to create the recovery.conf even if the actual Postgres major version is newver than 12.
To mitigate the problem we double check that the `Postgresql._major_version` is set before writing recovery configuration or starting postgres up.

Since a long time Patroni enforcing only one callback script running at a time. If the new callback is executed while the old one is still running, the old one is killed (including all child processes).
Such behavior is fine for all callbacks but on_reload, because the last one may accidentally cancel important ones, that for example updating DNS or assigning/removing Virtual IP.
To mitigate the problem we introduce a dedicated executor for on_reload callbacks, so that on_reload may only cancel another on_reload.

* bump version
* update release notes
* removed 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, and 3.6 from supported versions in setup.py
* switched GH actions back to ubuntu-latest, removed tests with 2.7 and 3.6, and added 3.11
* some little fixes in Citus documentation and behave tests
keep as much backward compatibility as possible.
Following changes were made:
1. All internal checks are performed as `role in ('master', 'primary')`
2. All internal variables/functions/methods are renamed
3. `GET /metrics` endpoint returns `patroni_primary` in addition to `patroni_master`.
4. Logs are changed to use leader/primary/member/remote depending on the context
5. Unit-tests are using only role = 'primary' instead of 'master' to verify that 1 works.
6. patronictl still supports old syntax, but also accepts `--leader` and `--primary`.
7. `master_(start|stop)_timeout` is automatically translated to `primary_(start|stop)_timeout` if the last one is not set.
8. updated the documentation and some examples
Future plan: in the next major release switch role name from `master` to `primary` and maybe drop `master` altogether.
The Kubernetes implementation will require more work and keep two labels in parallel. Label values should probably be configurable as described in https://github.com/zalando/patroni/issues/2495.
it doesn't like relative imports and not recognise `http.server` imported with `six`.
The last one is explicitly added to the list of `hiddenimports()` and will break compatibility with python 2.7, which support will be dropped in the next Patroni release anyway.

Citus cluster (coordinator and workers) will be stored in DCS as a fleet of Patroni logically grouped together:
```
/service/batman/
/service/batman/0/
/service/batman/0/initialize
/service/batman/0/leader
/service/batman/0/members/
/service/batman/0/members/m1
/service/batman/0/members/m2
/service/batman/
/service/batman/1/
/service/batman/1/initialize
/service/batman/1/leader
/service/batman/1/members/
/service/batman/1/members/m1
/service/batman/1/members/m2
...
```
Where 0 is a Citus group for coordinator and 1, 2, etc are worker groups.
Such hierarchy allows reading the entire Citus cluster with a single call to DCS (except Zookeeper).
The get_cluster() method will be reading the entire Citus cluster on the coordinator because it needs to discover workers. For the worker cluster it will be reading the subtree of its own group.
Besides that we introduce a new method get_citus_coordinator(). It will be used only by worker clusters.
Since there is no hierarchical structures on K8s we will use the citus group suffix on all objects that Patroni creates.
E.g.
```
batman-0-leader # the leader config map for the coordinator
batman-0-config # the config map holding initialize, config, and history "keys"
...
batman-1-leader # the leader config map for worker group 1
batman-1-config
...
```
Citus integration is enabled from patroni.yaml:
```yaml
citus:
database: citus
group: 0 # 0 is for coordinator, 1, 2, etc are for workers
```
If enabled, Patroni will create the database, citus extension in it, and INSERTs INTO `pg_dist_authinfo` information required for Citus nodes to communicate between each other, i.e. 'password', 'sslcert', 'sslkey' for superuser if they are defined in the Patroni configuration file.
When the new Citus coordinator/worker is bootstrapped, Patroni adds `synchronous_mode: on` to the `bootstrap.dcs` section.
Besides that, Patroni takes over management of some Postgres GUCs:
- `shared_preload_libraries` - Patroni ensures that the "citus" is added to the first place
- `max_prepared_transactions` - if not set or set to 0, Patroni changes the value to `max_connections*2`
- wal_level - automatically set to logical. It is used by Citus to move/split shards. Under the hood Citus is creating/removing replication slots and they are automatically added by Patroni to the `ignore_slots` configuration to avoid accidental removal.
The coordinator primary actively discovers worker primary nodes and registers/updates them in the `pg_dist_node` table using
citus_add_node() and citus_update_node() functions.
Patroni running on the coordinator provides the new REST API endpoint: `POST /citus`. It is used by workers to facilitate controlled switchovers and restarts of worker primaries.
When the worker primary needs to shut down Postgres because of restart or switchover, it calls the `POST /citus` endpoint on the coordinator and the Patroni on the coordinator starts a transaction and calls `citus_update_node(nodeid, 'host-demoted', port)` in order to pause client connections that work with the given worker.
Once the new leader is elected or postgres started back, they perform another call to the `POST/citus` endpoint, that does another `citus_update_node()` call with actual hostname and port and commits a transaction. After transaction is committed, coordinator reestablishes connections to the worker node and client connections are unblocked.
If clients don't run long transaction the operation finishes without client visible errors, but only a short latency spike.
All operations on the `pg_dist_node` are serialized by Patroni on the coordinator. It allows to have more control and ROLLBACK transaction in progress if its lifetime exceeding a certain threshold and there are other worker nodes should be updated.
When `synchronous_standby_names` GUC is changed PostgreSQL nearly immediately starts reporting corresponding walsenders as synchronous, while in fact they maybe didn't reach this state yet. To mitigate this problem we memorize current flush lsn on the primary right after change of `synchronous_standby_names` got visible and use it as an additional check for walsenders.
The walsender will be counted as truly "sync" only when write/flush/replay_lsn on it reached memorized LSN and the `application_name` is known to be a part of `synchronous_standby_names`.
The size of PR mostly related to refactoring and moving the code responsible for working with `synchronous_standby_names` and `pg_stat_replication` to the dedicated file.
And `parse_sync_standby_names()` function was mostly copied from #672.
1. Fix problem with logical slots not advancing when only the primary lost access to DCS
2. Don't let Patroni to join as a raft voting member when running failsafe behave tests. It allows to test exactly the same conditions as for other DCS
3. Speed up dcs_failsafe_mode behave tests by getting rid from long sleeps, slight reshuffling of places when we start/stop outage, and by killing Patroni/Postgres to avoid long shutdown due to the leader key removal attempts.
If PR is open from the external GH repo secrets are not set due to security reasons. It makes codacy coverage report to fail.

If enabled it will allow Patroni to cope with DCS outages.
In case of a DCS outage the leader tries to call all remaining members in the cluster via API and if all of them respond with success the leader will not be demoted.
The failsafe_mode could be enabled by running
```sh
patronictl edit-config -s failsafe_mode=true
```
or by calling the `/config` REST API endpoint.

They are frequently failing because sometimes replicas are a bit slow realizing that they are synchronous. Instead of instroducing more sleeps we will poll for required http status code with some timeout.
If the cluster is stable (no nodes are joining/leaving/lagging) we want to run at most one monitor query per every HA loop. So far it worker perfectly except when synchronous_mode is enabled, where we run two additional queries:
1. SHOW synchronous_mode
2. SELECT ... FROM pg_stat_replication
In order to solve it, we will include these "queries" to the common monitoring query is synchronous_mode is enabled.
In addition to that make sure that `synchronous_standby_names` is reset on replicas that used to be a primary and avoid using replicas which are not in the 'running' state.
P.S.: in the monitoring query we also extract the current value of synchronous_standby_names, because it will be useful for the quorum commit feature.

- the new MacOS doesn't play well with old go binaries (bump etcd)
- use brew to install Postgres and expect (unbuffer, to make behave output colorful) and use the latest version
- upload failed logs instead of grepping them to stdout
When doing the leader race we need to check that the former primary isn't alive anymore. For that we relied on non-inclusive terms. In order to simplify future work on getting rid from all non-inclusive words we change the check to rely on a difference in format of wal/xlog field. There is only "location" for the primary and "replayed_location" + "received_location" for standbys.
In addition to that we start supporting "wal" field as well as deprecated "xlog".

If openssl binary is available use it to generate a self-signed certificate. Use it to protect Patroni REST API
(`verify_client: required`).
In case if Postgres is compiled with SSL support enable it in the configuration and configure pg_hba.conf to check client certificates (`verify-ca`) in addition to passwords. Also configure superuser/replication/rewind users to use client certificates and verify server certificate (`verify-ca`)
There is a known [vector of attact](https://pganalyze.com/blog/5mins-postgres-security-patch-releases-pgspot-pghostile) by creating functions and/or operators in a public scheme with the same name and signature as corresponding objects in `pg_catalog`.
Since Patroni is heavily relying on superuser connections we want to mitigate it by enforcing `search_path=pg_catalog` for all connections created by Patroni (except replication connections). It is achieved by introducing a new function, that wraps psycopg.connect() and appends ` -c search_path=pg_catalog` to `options` parameter.
In addition to that, we set connection.autocommit to True before returning it.
Previously such an exception was raised only from the `get_cluster()` method, and now we will to do the same from the `update_leader()` and `attempt_to_acquire_leader()` methods.
These methods influence Postgres promotion and demotion and we want to make a difference between different types of failures. Specifically, if calls have failed because DCS isn't accessible or due to a timeout.

The only advantage of localkube was being a low weight. Anything else started creating only problems:
1. It is not properly maintained for many years.
2. It effectively worked only on Linux, but stopped on modern version due to changes in iptables.
Instead, we will use widely adoped tools like kind or k3s. The "kind-kind" is the default K8s context (see ~/.kube/config), but it could be overriden using `PATRONI_KUBERNETES_CONTEXT` environment variable. When executed from GH actions the context is set to k3d-k3s-default, because K3s is much faster to start.
The HAProxy is closing connections as soon as it got the HTTP Status code leaving no time for Patroni to properly shutdown SSL connection.

Windows doesn't support `SIGTERM`, but our behave tests in majority of cases relying on Patroni graceful shutdown.
In order to emulate the behaviour we introduced the new REST API endpoint `POST /sigterm`. The endpoint works only on Windows and when `BEHAVE_DEBUG` environment variable is set.
Besides that some minor adjustments in behave tests were done. Mainly related to backslash-slash handling.
In addition to that improve test coverage on Windows by properly mocking access to filesystem and avoiding calling
`subprocess.call()`. Specifically, symlink creation on Windows requires Admin privileges and there is no `true.exe`.

When starting postgres after bootstrap of the standby-leader the `follow()` method is used to always return `True`.
This behavior was changed in the #2054 in order to avoid hammering logs if postgres is failing to start.
Since now the method returns `None` if postgres didn't start accepting connections after 60s, the change broke the standby-leader bootstrap code.
As the solution, we will assume that the clone was successful if the `follow()` method returned anything different from `False`.

When restore_command is configured Postgres is trying to fetch/apply all possible WAL segments and also fetch history files in order to select the correct timeline. It could result in a situation where the new history file will be missing some timelines.
Example:
- node1 demotes/crashes on timeline 1
- node2 promotes to timeline 2 and archives `00000002.history` and crashes
- node1 recovers as a replica, "replays" `00000002.history` and promotes to timeline 3
As a result, the `00000003.history` will not have the line with timeline 2, because it never replayed any WAL segment from it.
The `pg_rewind` tool is supposed to correctly handle such case when rewinding node2 from node1, but Patroni when deciding whether the rewind should happen was searching for the exact timeline in the history file from the new primary.
The solution is to assume that rewind is required if the current replica timeline is missing.
In addition to that this PR makes sure that the primary isn't running in recovery before starting the procedure of rewind check.

Previously sync nodes were selected only based on replication lag and hence the node with `nofailover` tag had the same chances to become synchronous as any other node. That behavior was confusing and dangerous at the same time, because in case of failed primary the failover couldn't happen automatically.

When deciding whether the ZNode should be updated we rely on the cached version of the cluster, which is updated only when members ZNodes are deleted/created or the `/status`, `/sync`, `/failover`, `/config`, or `/history` ZNodes are updated.
I.e. after the update of the current member ZNode succeeded the cache becomes stale and all further updates are always performed even if the value didn't change. In order to solve it, we introduce the new attribute in the Zookeeper class and will use it for memorizing the actual value and for later comparison.
Specifically, if `postgresql.unix_socket_directories` is not set.
In this case Patroni is supposed to use only the port in the connection string, but the `get_replication_connection_cursor()` method defaulted to host='localhost'
1. Two `TypeError`-s raised from `ApiClient.request()` method
2. Use the _retry() wrapper function instead of callable object in the `_update_leader_with_retry()` when trying to workaround concurrent updates of the leader object.
In some extreme cases Postgres could be so slow that the normal monitoring query doesn't finish in a few seconds. It results in
the exception being raised from the `Postgresql._cluster_info_state_get()` method, which could lead to the situation that postgres isn't demoted on time.
In order to make it reliable we will catch the exception and use the cached state of postgres (`is_running()` and `role`) to determine whether postgres is running as a primary.

While doing demote due to failure to update leader lock it could happen that DCS goes completely down and the get_cluster() call raise the exception.
Not being properly handled it results in postgres remaining stopped until DCS recovers.
Due to different reasons, it could happen that WAL archiving on the primary stuck or significantly delayed. If we try to do a switchover or shut it down, the shutdown will take forever and will not finish until the whole backlog of WALs is processed.
In the meantime, Patroni keeps updating the leader lock, which prevents other nodes from starting the leader race even if it is known that they received/applied all changes.
The `Database cluster state:` is changed to `"shut down"` after:
- all data is fsynced to disk and the latest checkpoint is written to WAL
- all streaming replicas confirmed that they received all changes (including the latest checkpoint)
- at the same time, the archiver process continues to do its job and the postmaster process is still running.
In order to solve this problem and make the switchover more reliable/fast in a case when `archive_command` is slow/failing, Patroni will remove the leader key immediately after `pg_controldata` started reporting PGDATA as `"shut down"` cleanly and it verified that there is at least one replica that received all changes. If there are no replicas that fulfill the condition the leader key isn't removed and the old behavior is retained, i.e. Patroni will keep updating it.
