* Send systemd READY notification (#8296)Pierre de La Morinerie2018-02-151-0/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when starting Mattermost programmatically, it's hard to tell when the server is actually ready to receive network connections. This isn't convenient for monitoring (the systemd service status is "running" although the server is still booting), nor for programatic use (where a script would need to know when the server is ready to perform further actions). To improve this, systemd allow processes to tell when they started successfully. The launcher waits for this notification before reporting the service as successfully launched. The way processes notify systemd is by sending a `READY=1` string over a standard unix socket, whose path is provided in an environment var. The systemd service is then told to expect this notification: ```diff [Service] -Type=simple +Type=notify ExecStart=/home/vagrant/go/bin/platform ``` Now, when starting the server, systemd will actually wait for the server to be ready before returning the control to the shell. Additionally, during this time, querying the server status with `service mattermost status` will report the service as "activating" – before transitioning to "running" when the server is ready.
* Add tests for the `platform server` command (#8231)Pierre de La Morinerie2018-02-121-0/+72
* Cleanup app state on initialization error When returning an initialization error, the app state was not cleaned up. This is especially visible during tests, as `appCount` is not decremented, and makes the new app initialization fail. * Test the `platform server` command As the `platform server` command only exits when interrupted by a signal, it is not possible to test it as the other cobra commands. Instead we directly test the actual command function. The internal command handler is slighly refactored to take a channel in argument, and registers it as the signal handler. Nothing very different—except than controlling this channel from the outside allows the test to send the system signal itself, thus preventing the server to run forever.
