If an array of multiple servers is put in $config['queue']['stomp_server'], enqueues will pick a random server to send to (failing over automatically if any are down).
Queue handling daemons connect all servers so they get events no matter where they were delivered.
In case of disconnection, daemons should now handle it gracefully and attempt to reconnect every 60 seconds or so, automatically resubscribing to all queues once it's back up.
Can put to 'native' failover for reads as well by disabling $config['stomp']['manual_failover'] = false; but this is untested and may explode in addition to requiring that your ActiveMQ cluster actually be set up to handle its own data distribution.
Additionally, can choose which queues to mark as persistent by setting $config['stomp']['persistent'] to an array of queue names.
Move definition of NICKNAME_FMT above plugin initialization but below loading of Validate package.
A merge error when refactoring setup lead to this not being defined yet when plugins were initialized, causing the router setup in MapstractionPlugin which tried to use this constant to fail.
Result was bogus links and if you hit the URL directly the action would be "unrecognized".

We have about 10-12 JavaScript pages per Web page. They usually
are based on the same server as the Web pages, but since they're
static files, it makes sense to offload them to a lite server that
handles static files well.
This commit lets you set a separate Javascript server and path for the
default Javascript code in StatusNet.

configurable server and path for javascript files
queuectl.php --update -s<site>
queuectl.php --stop
queuectl.php --restart
Default control channel is /topic/statusnet-control. For external utilities to send a site update ping direct to the queue server, connect via Stomp and send a message formatted thus:
update:<nickname>
(Nickname here, *not* server hostname! The rest of the queues will be updated to use nicknames later.)
Note that all currently-connected queue daemons will get these notifications, including both queuedaemon.php and xmppdaemon.php. (XMPP will ignore site update requests for sites that it's not handling.)
Limitations:
* only implemented for stomp queue manager so far
* --update may not yet handle a changed server name properly
* --restart won't reload PHP code files that were already loaded at startup. Still need to stop and restart the daemons from 'outside' when updating code base.
New configuration options to define a single-user mode. This hides
most of the "community" pages, like the public timeline and groups.
The main user's timeline becomes the main page, and most other URLs
are changed.
Switching back and forth between 1-user and multi-user mode is
probably hazardous.

Moved much of the writing that happens when posting a notice to a new
queuehandler, distribqueuehandler. This updates tags, groups, replies
and inboxes at queue time (or at Web time, if queues are disabled).
To make this work well, I had to break up the monolithic
Notice::blowCaches() and make cache blowing happen closer to where
data is updated.

Move distribution of notices to new distribute queue handler
Previously, messages once delivered would just get stuck in the queue seemingly forever if they never got ACKed.
Note this could lead to partial duplication, for instance if the OMB or Twitter queue handlers die after 1/2 of the outgoing sends.
Recommendations:
* catch exceptions more aggressively within queue handlers (so only PHP fatal errors are likely to kill in the middle)
* for processing that involves sending to multiple clients, consider a second queue similar to the XMPP output, eg for OMB:
- first queue gets delivery list and builds message data, enqueueing it for each target address
- second queue can handle each individual outgoing message (and attempt redelivery etc separately)
This would also protect better against a recurring error preventing delivery in the second part, and could spread out any slow sends over multiple threads.
Queue handlers for XMPP individual & firehose output now send their XML stanzas
to another output queue instead of connecting directly to the chat server. This
lets us have as many general processing threads as we need, while all actual
XMPP input and output go through a single daemon with a single connection open.
This avoids problems with multiple connected resources:
* multiple windows shown in some chat clients (psi, gajim, kopete)
* extra load on server
* incoming message delivery forwarding issues
Database changes:
* queue_item drops 'notice_id' in favor of a 'frame' blob.
This is based on Craig Andrews' work branch to generalize queues to take any
object, but conservatively leaving out the serialization for now.
Table updater (preserves any existing queued items) in db/rc3to09.sql
Code changes to watch out for:
* Queue handlers should now define a handle() method instead of handle_notice()
* QueueDaemon and XmppDaemon now share common i/o (IoMaster) and respawning
thread management (RespawningDaemon) infrastructure.
* The polling XmppConfirmManager has been dropped, as the message is queued
directly when saving IM settings.
* Enable $config['queue']['debug_memory'] to output current memory usage at
each run through the event loop to watch for memory leaks
To do:
* Adapt XMPP i/o to component connection mode for multi-site support.
* XMPP input can also be broken out to a queue, which would allow the actual
notice save etc to be handled by general queue threads.
* Make sure there are no problems with simply pushing serialized Notice objects
to queues.
* Find a way to improve interactive performance of the database-backed queue
handler; polling is pretty painful to XMPP.
* Possibly redo the way QueueHandlers are injected into a QueueManager. The
grouping used to split out the XMPP output queue is a bit awkward.

- NOTICE_INBOX_SOURCE_* constants moved to common.php since Notice_inbox.php not always loaded
- fixed typo in User::staticGet() call which caused user #1 to receive messages once for each subscriber instead of for him/herself
- 'continue' -> 'continue 2' inside switch() statement to fix loop escape (PHP considers switch() a looping construct for break & continue)
Key changes:
* Initialization code moved from common.php to StatusNet class;
can now switch configurations during runtime.
* As a consequence, configuration files must now be idempotent...
Be careful with constant, function or class definitions.
* Control structure for daemons/QueueManager/QueueHandler has been refactored;
the run loop is now managed by IoMaster run via scripts/queuedaemon.php
IoManager subclasses are woken to handle socket input or polling, and may
cover multiple sites.
* Plugins can implement notice queue handlers more easily by registering a
QueueHandler class; no more need to add a daemon.
The new QueueDaemon runs from scripts/queuedaemon.php:
* This replaces most of the old *handler.php scripts; they've been refactored
to the bare handler classes.
* Spawns multiple child processes to spread load; defaults to CPU count on
Linux and Mac OS X systems, or override with --threads=N
* When multithreaded, child processes are automatically respawned on failure.
* Threads gracefully shut down and restart when passing a soft memory limit
(defaults to 90% of memory_limit), limiting damage from memory leaks.
* Support for UDP-based monitoring: http://www.gitorious.org/snqmon
Rough control flow diagram:
QueueDaemon -> IoMaster -> IoManager
QueueManager [listen or poll] -> QueueHandler
XmppManager [ping & keepalive]
XmppConfirmManager [poll updates]
Todo:
* Respawning features not currently available running single-threaded.
* When running single-site, configuration changes aren't picked up.
* New sites or config changes affecting queue subscriptions are not yet
handled without a daemon restart.
* SNMP monitoring output to integrate with general tools (nagios, ganglia)
* Convert XMPP confirmation message sends to use stomp queue instead of polling
* Convert xmppdaemon.php to IoManager?
* Convert Twitter status, friends import polling daemons to IoManager
* Clean up some error reporting and failure modes
* May need to adjust queue priorities for best perf in backlog/flood cases
Detailed code history available in my daemon-work branch:
http://www.gitorious.org/~brion/statusnet/brion-fixes/commits/daemon-work
* Mostly punctuation updates so that the same message is used consistently in all of StatusNet.
* Some cases of "Title Case" removed, because that does not appear to be used consistently.
This reverts commit 5d9a2eb17e.
These are commands that are/were implemented by Twitter, and we don't
(yet) implemented. People will be looking for that information.
* We now cache negative lookups; clear them in Memcached_DataObject->insert()
* Mark file.url as a unique key in statusnet.ini so its negative lookups are cleared properly (first save of a notice with a new URL was failing due to double-insert)
* Now using serialization for default in-process cache instead of just saving objects; avoids potential corruption if you save an object to cache, change the original object, then fetch the same key from cache again
Consolidated several separate implementations of the same weighting algorithm into common_sql_weight() and fixed some bugs...
For MySQL, now using timestampdiff() instead of subtraction for the comparison, so we get sane results when the year doesn't match, and utc_timestamp() rather than now() so we don't get negative ages for recent items with local server timezone.
Unknown whether the same problems affect PostgreSQL, but note that it lacks the timestampdiff() SQL function.

self-subscription) via the API. Additionally, make it impossible
to block yourself or unsubscribe from yourself, period.
I also made User use the subs.php helper function for unsubscribing
during a block.
Hopefully, these changes will get rid of the problem of people
accidentally deleting their self-subscriptions once and for all
(knock on wood).

DB_DataObject hides errors by silently returning null for any non-existent method call, making it harder to tell what the heck's going on... the rights check for blocked remote users returned null for the check for subscribe rights, thus eval'ing to false. We now log a note in this circumstance, which would have cut about 3 hours off of the debug time.

Success return code from omb_broadcast_message was dropped in commit ec88d2650e (Aug 10 2009) which switched us to libomb backend. With queues enabled, this would lead to the notice being readded to the outgoing OMB queue for redelivery as the queue system thought the send failed. The resends caused extra load and confusion for third-party sites, and more worryingly just plugged up our own queue so legit messages were badly delayed.
This commit should restore the previous state, where we fire-and-forget; that is, we're not actually checking to see if all remote subscribers received the message successfully and there will be no resends.

The call was moved to this spot in commit 3ea1119e50 (previously init'd later in another func) but doesn't seem to be needed anyway. None of our code uses the variables that this function defines, just the constants -- which are already predefined without the call.
The function is deprecated in PHP 5.3 and gone in 6, so we may as well toss it now.
common_logged_in() returned bogus results because it checks against null specifically, but common_current_user() was sticking 'false' into $_cur because that's what User::staticGet() returned from a failed lookup. Now we skip over a failed lookup here, so we keep null and all is well.

* sphinx.conf.sample better matches our live config, skipping unused stopword list and using a more realistic indexer memory limit
Further notes:
* Probably doesn't work right with PostgreSQL yet; Sphinx can pull from PG but the extraction queries currently look like they use some MySQL-specific functions.
