The catalyst-action-rest branch from shlevy/hydra was an exploration of
using Catalyst::Action::REST to create a JSON API for hydra. This commit
merges in the best bits from that experiment, with the goal that further
API endpoints can be added incrementally.
In addition to migrating more endpoints, there is potential for
improvement in what's already been done:
* The web interface can be updated to use the same non-GET endpoints as
the JSON interface (using x-tunneled-method) instead of having a
separate endpoint
* The web rendering should use the $c->stash->{resource} data structure
where applicable rather than putting the same data in two places in
the stash
* Which columns to render for each endpoint is a completely debatable
question
* Hydra::Component::ToJSON should turn has_many relations that have
strings as their primary keys into objects instead of arrays

This allows checking a jobset (say) at most once a day. It's also
possible to disable polling by setting the interval to 0. This is
useful for jobsets that use push notification or are manually
evaluated.
External machines can now notify Hydra that it should check a
repository by sending a GET or PUSH request to /api/push, providing a
list of jobsets to be checked and/or a list of repository URLs. In
the latter case, all jobsets that have any of the specified
repositories as an input will be checked.
For instance, you can configure GitHub or BitBucket to send a request
to the URL
http://hydra.example.org/api/push?repos=git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git
to trigger evaluation of all jobsets that have
git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git as an input, or to the URL
http://hydra.example.org/api/push?jobsets=patchelf:trunk,nixpkgs:trunk
to trigger evaluation of just the specified jobsets.
It's pointless to store these, since Nix knows where the logs are.
Also handle (in fact require) Nix's new log storage scheme. Also some
cleanups in the build page.
The singleton table SchemaVersion contains the current version
of the Hydra database schema. This can be used to upgrade the
schema on the fly.
Also reran the DBIx::Class schema loader.
recording the builds that are part of a jobset evaluation. We need
this to be able to answer queries such as "return the latest NixOS
ISO for which the installation test succeeded". This wasn't previously
possible because the database didn't record which builds of (say)
the `isoMinimal' job and the `tests.installer.simple' job came from
the same evaluation of the nixos:trunk jobset.
Keeping a record of evaluations is also useful for logging purposes.
releases as a dynamic view on the database was misguided, since
doing thing like adding a new job to a release set will invalidate
all old releases. So we rename release sets to views, and we'll
reintroduce releases as separate, static entities in the database.
the derivations that the jobset currently contains. This is
necessary to allow the "latest" channel to contain the correct
builds when the sources of a jobset are reverted.
distinguish between jobs with the same name in different jobsets
(e.g. "trunk" vs "stdenv-branch" for Nixpkgs).
* Renamed the "attrName" field of Builds to "job".
* Renamed the "id" field of BuildSteps to "build".
Note: to upgrade old databases, do a dump with an old Sqlite first;
dumping with a new Sqlite will silently discard (!) the contents of
the ReleaseSetJobs table.
failed in a previous build. This is essential for Nixpkgs: we don't
want to keep doing the same failed dependency (say, Glibc) over and
over again for a few hundred jobs.
