Enduro/X 3.3.1 Released

Enduro/X 3.3.1 version is released - mainly works on configuration files (common-config) ini based
Added by Editor over 7 years ago

INI Based configuration system

Enduro/X 3.3.1 now can be configured by using ini file (or files) instead of environment variables, ndrxdebug.conf and q.conf.
Two new environment variables now are added to the system:

1. NDRX_CCONFIG=/path/to/ini/file/or/directory/with/files
2. and optional NDRX_CCTAG which allows processes to specify the subsection of Enduro/X system settings.

The configurations sections are:
[@global] - environment variables for process (see ex_env(5))
[@debug] - debug configuration per binary (see ndrxdebug.conf(5))
[@queue] - persistent queue configurations.

If you use NDRX_CCTAG or specify the "cctag" for ATMI server, then Enduro/X will scan for sections like (e.g. cctag=TAG1):
[@global/TAG1] and then [@global]
[@debug/TAG1] and then [@debug]
[@queue/TAG1] and then [@debug]

cctag can contain multiple tags, which are separated by '/'. In that case multiple lockups will be made with base section combination.

Configuration server available for user applications

New configuration server is being added "cconfsrv" which can be used by applications to use Enduro/X framework for application configuration. The user application can call the "@CCONFIG" server in two modes: A) for getting the exact section, B) for listing the sections. See cconfsrv(8) for more details. The idea behind this is that user can do the programming under Enduro/X in multiple languages (C/Go/Perl/Python/PHP/NodeJs) and these modules typically needs configuration. It would be waste of time if for each of the languages developer would need to think how to read the configuration from config files with natlibraries.ies. The Enduro/X offers standard XATMI micro-service call for reading the ini files in common way for whole application, no matter in which language it is programmed.
