* Divest api/ package of deps elsewhere in the nomad repo.
This will allow making api/ a module without then pulling in the
external repo, leading to a package name conflict.
This required some migration of tests to an apitests/ folder (can be
moved anywhere as it has no deps on it). It also required some
duplication of code, notably some test helpers from api/ -> apitests/
and part (but not all) of testutil/ -> api/testutil/.
Once there's more separation and an e.g. sdk/ folder those can be
removed in favor of a dep on the sdk/ folder, provided the sdk/ folder
doesn't depend on api/ or /.
* Also remove consul dep from api/ package
* Fix stupid linters
* Some restructuring
Given that the values will rarely change, specially considering that any
changes would be backward incompatible change. As such, it's simpler to
keep syncing manually in the rare occasion and avoid the syncing code
overhead.
Embed pointer conversion functions in the API package to avoid
unnecessary package dependency. `helper` package imports more
dependencies relevant for internal use (e.g. `hcl`).
nomad/structs is an internal package and imports many libraries (e.g.
raft, codec) that are not relevant to api clients, and may cause
unnecessary dependency pain (e.g. `github.com/ugorji/go/codec`
version is very old now).
Here, we add a code generator that imports the relevant constants from
`nomad/structs`.
I considered using this approach for other structs, but didn't find a
quick viable way to reduce duplication. `nomad/structs` use values as
struct fields (e.g. `string`), while `api` uses value pointer (e.g.
`*string`) instead. Also, sometimes, `api` structs contain deprecated
fields or additional documentation, so simple copy-paste doesn't work.
For these reasons, I opt to keep the status quo.
IOPS have been modelled as a resource since Nomad 0.1 but has never
actually been detected and there is no plan in the short term to add
detection. This is because IOPS is a bit simplistic of a unit to define
the performance requirements from the underlying storage system. In its
current state it adds unnecessary confusion and can be removed without
impacting any users. This PR leaves IOPS defined at the jobspec parsing
level and in the api/ resources since these are the two public uses of
the field. These should be considered deprecated and only exist to allow
users to stop using them during the Nomad 0.9.x release. In the future,
there should be no expectation that the field will exist.
This PR fixes an issue in which we would merge an update stanza from the
job into the task groups even if it was empty. This broke round
tripping a job (reading from the api and resubmitting as JSON)
