A pack in this context is a *bundle* of plugins that can be distributed outside of rubygems; it is similar to what ES and kibana are doing, and
the user interface is modeled after them. See https://www.elastic.co/downloads/x-pack
**Do not mix it with the `bin/logstash-plugin pack/unpack` command.**
- it contains one or more plugins that need to be installed
- it is self-contains with the gems and the needed jars
- it is distributed as a zip file
- the file structure needs to follow some rules.
- As a reserved name name on elastic.co download http server
- `bin/plugin install logstash-mypack` will check on the download server if a pack for the current specific logstash version exist and it will be downloaded, if it doesn't exist we fallback on rubygems.
- The file on the server will follow this convention `logstash-mypack-{LOGSTASH_VERSION}.zip`
- As a fully qualified url
- `bin/plugin install http://test.abc/logstash-mypack.zip`, if it exists it will be downloaded and installed if it does not we raise an error.
- As a local file
- `bin/plugin install file:///tmp/logstash-mypack.zip`, if it exists it will be installed
Fixes#6168
including dependencies, and reuse them in an offline installation by
providing an package for it. It adds two important commands to the
plugin manager, the pack and upack, to handle package creation and
installation and adds the --local flag to install and update to pull
plugins from the installed local packages.
Former commits:
add a task to create a bundle, under vendor/cache of the installed gems + their dependencies, this can be used later on to be installed offline
add an option to pass the --local flag to the bin/plugin update task, so it fetch plugins from a local cache, by default under vendor/cache
rename package:build to package:build-cache as is more meaningfull
add a --local flag to bin/plugin install to users can install plugins from the local cache, under the default directory of vendor/cache
add a plugin manager command to build the local cache of installed plugins using bundler package alike command
It adds code for compressing and extracting in zip and tar formats to
the utils module of logstash. The zip module is only jruby dependant as
it uses functions provided by java.
There is also code add in the plugin manager package command to handle
compression of plugins dumping.
Cleanup the custom java code to compress and extract zip files as it has
been known that using rubyzip is good and it has a more ruby like
features so the code is more clean and portable.
set of smallish improvement requested during review
added several options to handle situation when the package of plugins we want to generate is already there
clean up old code
applyed feedback from review, mostly changed in documentating behaviour plus better wording for messages
relocate the Environment.windows? check to the bootstrap side as it's used also in the plugin manager
add an unpack bin/plugin command so users can install packages of plugins throw the plugin manager
document override behaviour in the compress helpers (for zip and tar) plus add a fix for the tar extract when reading entries
made the unpack filename parameter a required one
add a force option to the bin/plugin unpack command
add a notice to that if using a local cache the --local flag should be passed with
Code cleanup and refactor introduced during review
add two wording suggestions comming from review
ammend more wording
skip the major version validation as in situation where there is no internet connection like when using the local vendor/cache to do the update
move compress to the bootstrap environment as being used in the plugin manager means not being loaded with logstash-core
