Previously, pg_rewind was called only if a crashed master tried
to rejoin the cluster. It didn't cover the important case of a
master shut down cleanly, but with a combination of a smart
shutdown and subsequently a fast shutdown. Since out pg_rewind
code does not depend on the "uncleanness" of the master's shutdown,
we can call it unconditionally in all cases where the former master
tries to rejoin as a replica.
This resolves #167.
According to https://github.com/zalando/patroni/issues/48 'clonefrom'
tag should be boolean and it should be used to mark node as a suitable
for creation of a new replica from. If there are more then one such node
in the cluster (with tag clonefrom=true), one of them will be chosed
randomly.
It was shutdown correctly and I expected such 'join' working, but it was
not, because new leader didn't had enough time to catch up with the
master before promote.
Instead of starting it up in "read-only", it wil wait 2 seconds, to give
a time to somebody to prompte and after it will execute normal `recover`
procedure.
Such situation is causing patroni crash. Usually it was happening during
manual failover, after former master has demoted and `reset_cluster`
method has been called. In this case `fetch_cluster` was `False` and
`_load_cluster` method was returning value from `self._cluster`, which
was `None`.
In addition to that rename confusing `Etcd.client` and
`ZooKeeper.client` into `_client`. This attribute is available from
AbstractDCS and people had wrong impression that it provides the same
interface for different DCS implementations, which is obviously not the
case. For Etcd it has type etcd.Client and for ZooKeeper - KazooClient.
Despite this release was very buggy it has really nice features:
* EtcdWatchTimedOut exception is raised when `watch` call timed out
* it supports SRV autodiscovery
Since we already implemented our own SRV discovery this feature is not
really interesting for us, but it solves the problem of having two
requirements files for different python versions, because python-etcd
will install dnspython or dnspython3 as a dependency.
In order to fix https://github.com/jplana/python-etcd/issues/152 and
https://github.com/jplana/python-etcd/pull/154 I had to override
`api_execute` method.
