This information will help to detect stale replicas.
In addition to that Host will include ':{port}' if the port value isn't default or more than one member running on the same host.

If the pg_rewind is disabled or can't be used, the former master could fail to start as a new replica due to diverged timelines. In this case, the only way to fix it is wiping the data directory and reinitializing.
So far Patroni was able to remove the data directory only after failed attempt to run pg_rewind. This commit fixes it.
If the `postgresql.remove_data_directory_on_diverged_timelines` is set, Patroni will wipe the data directory and reinitialize the former master automatically.

The latest timeline is calculated from the `/history` key in DCS. In case there is no such key or it contains some garbage we consider the node healthy.

libpq allows opening connection without explicitly specifying neither username nor password. Depending on situation it would rely either on `pgpass` file or trust authentication method in pg_hba.conf.
Since pg_rewind is also using libpq, it could work the same way.

It allows changing logging settings in runtime by updating config and doing reload or sending `SIGHUP` to the Patroni process.
Important! Environment configuration names related to logging were renamed and documentation accordingly updated. For compatibility reasons Patroni still accepts `PATRONI_LOGLEVEL` and `PATRONI_FORMAT`, but some other variables related to logging, which were introduced only
recently (between releases), will stop working. I think it is ok, since we didn't release the new version yet and therefore it is very unlikely that somebody is using them except authors of corresponding PRs.
Example of log section in the config file:
```yaml
log:
dir: /where/to/write/patroni/logs # if not specified, write logs to stderr
file_size: 50000000 # 50MB
file_num: 10 # keep history of 10 files
dateformat: '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'
loggers: # increase log verbosity for etcd.client and urllib3
etcd.client: DEBUG
urllib3: DEBUG
```
1. Log only debug level messages on any kind of error
2. Update regexp for matching postgres aux processes to make it compatible with postgres 11

We want to avoid archiving WALs and history files until the cluster is fully functional. It should really help if the custom bootstrap involves pg_upgrade.
Inheriting stderr from the main Patroni process allows all Postgres logs to be seen along with all patroni logs. This is very useful in a container environment as Patroni and Postgres logs may be consumed using standard tools (docker logs, kubectl, etc).
In addition to that, this change fixes a bug with Patroni not being able to catch postmaster pid when postgres writing some warnings into stderr
It gives users the option to send Patroni application logs to a File instead of Standard Out. There are three environment variables that can be set to enable and configure file logging.
1. `PATRONI_FILE_LOG_DIR`: Path to a directory that is writeable by the executing user. Having this variable set is what activates file logging.
2. `PATRONI_FILE_LOG_NUM`: This is a rolling file logger. This variable dictates how many log files are retained.
3. `PATRONI_FILE_LOG_SIZE`: This variable dictates the size at which the logs will roll.
If `PATRONI_FILE_LOG_DIR` is not set than Patroni will log to stderr (default behavior does not change)

- Update postgres docker image to the latest 11 version.
- Remove empty lines inside the `RUN` command to make the Dockerfile compatible with future docker versions.
- Set the `PATRONI_KUBERNETES_POD_IP` environment variable, which is required when _use_endpoints_ is enabled. Otherwise, the `KeyError` is raised [here](https://github.com/zalando/patroni/blob/master/patroni/dcs/kubernetes.py#L95).
- Set `EDITOR` environment variable to make configuration changes via `patronictl edit-config`.
Change of `loop_wait` was causing Patroni to disconnect from zookeeper and never reconnect back. The error was happening only with python3 due to a difference in implementation of `select.select` function.
- It modifies the Dockerfile and entrypoint slightly to allow for OpenShift SCCs to operate correctly
- It adds 2 template examples that can be easily modified by changing parameters
Fixes#572
Recently 2.6.0 was release which changes the way how create_connection method is called. Before it was passing two arguments, and in the new version all argument names are specified explicitly.
Permanent replication slots are preserved on failover/switchover, that is Patroni on the new primary will create configured replication slots right after doing promote.
Slots could be configured with the help of `patronictl edit-config`.
The initial configuration could be also done in the `bootstrap.dcs`
```yaml
slots:
permanent_physical_1:
type: physical
permanent_logical_1:
type: logical
database: foo
plugin: pgoutput
```
It is the responsibility of the operator to make sure that there are no clashes in names between replication slots automatically created by Patroni for members and permanent replication slots.
Closes https://github.com/zalando/patroni/issues/656
* Always run `pg_rewind` against the remote master
* Always use the remote master as the source when "recovering" stopped standby leader
* Use remote master as the source when "recovering" the node in the unhealthy cluster
* Use the local dbname as the fallback when doing `pg_rewind` from the remote master
* `no_replication_slot` is the allowed key in the `RemoteMember` object
* Make it possible to "bootstrap" the new `standby_cluster` with existing (and valid) data directory. There is one prerequisite though, there should be no `patroni.dynamic.json` file in it!
* pgbackrest support
pgBackrest can restore in existing $PGDATA folder, this allows speedy restore as files which have not changed since last backup are skipped, to support this feature new param keep_data has been introduced. When keep_data=True, cleanup of $PGDATA will be skipped.
Patroni passes some extra parameters to custom_replica_methods when calling, this causes an error due to pgbackrest strict parameter checking. New param no_params=True can be set to skip parameters passing.
Fixes https://github.com/zalando/patroni/issues/625
* Use `shutil.move` instead of `os.replace`, which is available only from 3.3
* Introduce standby-leader health-check and consul service
* Improve unit tests, some lines were not covered
* rename `assertEquals` -> `assertEqual`, due to deprecation warning
Implementation of "standby cluster" described in #657. Standby cluster consists
of a "standby leader", that replicates from a "remote master" (which is not a
part of current patroni cluster and can be anywhere), and cascade replicas,
that replicate from the corresponding standby leader. "Standby leader" behaves
pretty much like a regular leader, which means that it holds a leader lock in
DSC, in case if disappears there will be an election of a new "standby
leader".
One can define such a cluster using the section "standby_cluster" in patroni
config file. This section provides parameters for standby cluster, that will be
applied only once during bootstrap and can be changed only through DSC.
