This patch gets rid of the thin veneer that we currently have around the three
executables. This was done for historical reasons (circa 2003 Guile couldnʼt
deal with process signals and forks). In fact these problems were fixed many
moons ago, and there is now no need for it. The project becomes 100% Guile!
Many files are affected; interested coders should use the GIT repository to
understand the details of all the changes.
The option is supposed to be able to take an optional argument, but if the
argument is not supplied (should default to 8) then the test, rather than
failing, is skipped with a friendly message in the log file. The proper fix
will come with an upstream patch to GNU Guile, and a future version of Mcron.
* tests/schedule-2.sh: new test, new file
* Makefile.am: make sure to run the new test file
Previously were looking for files listed on the command line in
Guile's modules directory. This is a bug-fix; running
'make check' will reveal one less failure than before.
* src/mcron/scripts/mcron.scm (process-user-file): use read and eval
instead of load.
The mcron program goes looking for files specified on the command
line in Guile's module path, inevitably resulting in failure to load
said file. Running 'make check' will show at least one failure.
* tests/basic.sh: Added new test.
Some of the date tests depend both on the particular time of day and year at
which the test is run, and also on the state of daylight-savings adjustments.
(At the present time on my system there are four failing tests, but YMMV.)
This patch puts all the tests to UTC time in the C locale, making the results
consistent. *All* items in the test suite should be passing once again.
* tests/job-schedule.scm: Fix up the environment before running the tests.
'call-with-current-continuation' is overkill and not quite what we
want. 'let/ec' is supported in Guile 2.0, 2.2, and 3.0.
* src/mcron/base.scm (run-job-loop): Use 'let/ec' instead of
'call-with-current-continuation'.
<libguile.h> in Guile 2.x used to include these, but this is no longer
the case with 3.0.
* src/cron.c, src/mcron.h: Include <string.h>.
* src/utils.c: Include <stdio.h>.
This allows users to configure the Mail Transfert Agent (MTA) of their
choice.
* configure.ac: Add '--with-sendmail' option.
(SENDMAIL): Default to 'sendmail -t'.
* NEWS: Announce it.
* src/mcron/redirect.scm (with-mail-out): Assume the MTA is reading the
message for recipients.
* build-aux/guix.scm: Remove 'which' from the native-inputs.
* README: Do not include the version number. Refer to "HACKING" when
"INSTALL" is not available. Tell about the "--disable-multi-user"
configure option.
It seems that it is not useful to catch 'misc-error exception when
calling 'getopt-long'. Since 'parse-args' purpose was only to catch
this particular error, it can be deleted.
* src/mcron/utils.scm (parse-args): Remove.
* src/mcron/job-specifier.scm (configuration-user): Box it using
SRFI-111 to be explicit about the mutability of this object.
(job): Adapt.
(set-configuration-user): Adapt and use 'get-user'.
* tests/job-specifier.scm ("set-configuration-user: passwd entry")
("set-configuration-user: invalid uid", "set-configuration-user: uid")
("set-configuration-user: invalid spec")
("set-configuration-user: name"): New tests.
This is a follow-up to commit 913e3c65e4.
Since 'next-...-from' procedures now uses an '#:optional' argument
instead of a dotted optional arguments list, 'bump-time' doesn't need to
unwrap VALUE-LIST anymore.
* src/mcron/job-specifier.scm (bump-time): Pass VALUE-LIST directly to
'%find-best-next'.
* tests/job-specifier.scm ("next-hour-from"): New test.
* NEWS: Update.
Reported-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
The behavior of the 'min' procedure which converts its parameters to
inexact numbers when at least one of them is inexact was causing
'%find-best-next' to always return real numbers.
* src/mcron/job-specifier.scm (%find-best-next): Preserve the exactness
of numbers in NEXT-LIST.
* tests/job-specifier.scm ("%find-best-next: exact"): New test.
Reported-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
Fetching third-party files inside a make rule is convenient and less
error prone since 'make' has access to '$srcdir'.
* build-aux/gnu-fetch: Delete.
* maint.mk (WGET, git_sv_host, sv_git_am, sv_git_gl)
(fetchfiles): New macros.
(fetch): New target.
* HACKING <Updating auxilary scripts>: Update instructions.
