This replaces the unmaintained serde_cbor with serde_json in both
db and IPC contexts. It changes the database on disk format to align
better to how we structure values in memory making it faster to load
entries when they aren't cached. And this breaks down the horrible
ValueSet enum to dyn trait types, which has a huge performance
improvement to the server.
Fixes#180 - this adds an oddjobd style tasks daemon to the unix tools. This supports creation of home directories and the maintenance of alias symlinks to these allowing user renames. The tasks daemon is written to require root, but is seperate from the unixd daemon. Communication is via a root-only unix socket that the task daemon connects into to reduce the possibility of exploit.
Fixes#369 due to the changes to call_daemon_blocking
Fixes#306 adding command line autocompletion. These are generated to: CARGO_TARGET_DIR/item-hash/out/. These will need to be packaged for distros later, it's unclear how we could use cargo install with these as cargo doesn't support arbitrary artefacts like this (yet?).
Previously we would only cache "hits" - items that kanidm is aware
of and did know about. However, this mean querying a raw uid/gid
number that was not known to files or kanidm would result in kanidm
doing an online check each request.
This adds a NXcache to cache misses, so they can be served as misses,
faster, and to reduce load on the main kanidm servers.
Fixes#336
Fixes#250, replacing cookies with auth-bearer tokens. This is done using fernet with randomised keys each startup. The reason for this is that in the future the size of the auth token may exceed cookie limits, so we must be able to understand and process auth bearer. Additionaly, this lets us store the tokens for say the kanidm cli as reqwest today can't persist a cookie jar.
This finishes some of the outstanding clippy issues that existed. Additionally, we updated all the project deps and updated libraries we could in the project. A bug exists currently in cargo outdated that is preventing further updates to this however, but that's a bit out of my hands.
this completely removes actix and actix-web from the codebase, replacing it with tokio and http-rs/tide. Due to a current temporary limit in tokio parts with openssl/libressl, rustls is used for the webserver, but I'll change this back once that issue is resolved. For now there are likely some other clippy issues, but the next step now is that I can finally run cargo outdated and update this and the other kanidm/* deps to be up to date due to no longer being held back on versions by actix. So following this, I need to finish clippy warnings, and run cargo outdated and cargo audit.
