The http internal client's FragmentBlocks and Blockdata methods were being used
incorrectly, and incorrect respectively. One was not being passed a node URI by
monitorAntiEntropy, and the other was always using the defaultURI regardless of
what was passed to it. Antientropy was doubling not working because of this. I
think this crept in pretty recently, so hasn't actually affected anyone.
I exposed a SyncData method on Server so that we can invoke the anti entropy
task manually instead of trying to set up the interval so that it will run and
then sleeping and waiting for it to run. Now that this test works the way it
does, the other anti entropy test is obsolete, and I deleted it.
these were occaisionally referenced elsewhere in the codebase - in all but one
case, there were workarounds that are actually better I think.
In the one case there wasn't I created a single top level DefaultConfig object
which is instantiated with all the default values and can be referred to if
necessary.
There was a bug in fragment.go with the way MaxWritesPerRequest was treated if
it was 0. Elsewhere, 0 meant no limit, but here, it would have caused a division
by 0.
Changed the default metrics provider from "nop" to "none", although "nop" will
still work. Previously, any value other than "statsd" or "expvar" was treated as
"nop", but I've changed this behavior to return an error if an invalid string is
provided. I think this is better behavior, because in the case that someone
bothered to change the default, they were probably interested in actually
getting stats, and might be annoyed when it silently failed.
All exported funcs in api.go are now documented
Several poorly named methods of API and Cluster were renamed. Particularly, the
word Fragment was often changed to Slice in cases where it was really a slice
being specified and not a fragment.
several methods which received or returned internal data structures have been
refactored to be more opaque.
Deprecation logging was added to input definition methods.
