[pve-devel] [PATCH many v9 00/13] notifications: notification metadata matching improvements

[Lukas Wagner]

This patch series attempts to improve the user experience when creating
notification matchers.

Some of the noteworthy changes:
  - Allow setting a custom backup job ID, similar how we handle it for
  sync/prune jobs in PBS (to allow recognizable names used in matchers)
  - New metadata fields:
    - job-id: Job ID for backup-jobs or replication-jobs
  - Add an API that enumerates known notification metadata fields/values
  - Suggest known fields/values in match rule window
  - Some code clean up for match rule edit window
  - Extended the 'exact' match-field mode - it now allows setting multiple
    allowed values, separated via ',':
      e.g. `match-field exact:type=replication,fencing
    Originally, I created a separate 'list' match type for this, but
    since the semantics for a list with one value and 'exact' mode
    are identical, I decided to just extend 'exact'.
    This is a safe change since there are are no values where a ','
    makes any sense (config IDs, hostnames)

NOTE: Might need a versionened break, since the widget-toolkit-patches
depend on new APIs provided by pve-manager. If the API is not present,
creating matchers with 'match-field' does not work (cannot load lists
of known values/fields)

Inter-Dependencies:
  - the widget-toolkit dep in pve-manager needs to be bumped
    to at least 4.1.4
    (we need "utils: add mechanism to add and override translatable notification event
    descriptions in the product specific UIs", otherwise the UI breaks
    with the pve-manager patches applied) --> already included a patch for
    this
  - widget-toolkit relies on a new API endpoint provided by pve-manager:
    --> we require a versioned break in widget-toolkit on pve-manager
  - pve-manager needs bumped pve-guest-common (thx @Fabian)

Changelog:
  - v9: fix typos in commit message, add @Max's R-b trailer - thx!
  - v8: incorporate feedback from @Fabian, thx a lot!
    - Made 'job-id' API param usable by root at pam only - this should prevent
      abuse by spoofing job-id, potentially bothering other users with bogus
      notifications.
    - Don't set 'job-id' when starting a backup job via 'Run now' in the UI
    - Add a note to the docs explaining when job-id is set and when not.
    - Drop already applied patches
  - v7: incorporated some more feedback from @Fiona, thx!
    - Fixed error when switching from 'exact' to 'regex' if the text field
      was empty
    - rebased to latest master
    - 'backport' doc improvements from PBS
    - bumped widget-toolkit dep
  - v6: incorporate feedback from @Fiona, thx!
    - rename 'id' -> 'job-id' in VZDump API handler
    - consolidate 'replication-job'/'backup-job' to 'job-id'
    - Move 'job-id' setting to advanced tab in backup job edit.
    - Don't use 'internal' flag to mark translatable fields, since
      the only field where that's necessary is 'type' for now - so
      just add a hardcoded check
  - v5:
    - Rebased onto latest master, resolving some small conflict
  - v4:
    - widget-toolkit: break out changes for the utils module so that they
      can be applied ahead of time to ease dep bumping
    - don't show Job IDs in the backup/replication job columns
  - v3:
    - Drop already applied patches for `proxmox`
    - Rebase onto latest master - minor conflict resolution was needed
  - v2:
    - include 'type' metadata field for forwarded mails
      --> otherwise it's not possible to match them
    - include Maximilliano's T-b trailer in UI patches
