implementing out-of-console updaters like i2psnark.
- Add new update interfaces in net.i2p.update
- All update implementations moved to routerconsole update/
- Implement an UpdateManager that registers with the RouterContext
- UpdateManager handles multiple types of things to update
(router, plugins, news, ...) and methods of updating (HTTP, ...)
- UpdateManager maintains list of installed, downloaded, and available versions of everything
- Define Updaters that can check for a new version and/or download an item
- Individual Updaters register with the UpdateManager obtained from
I2PAppContext, identifying the type of update item and
update method they can handle.
- Updaters need only core libs, no router.jar or routerconsole access required.
- All checks and updates are initiated via the UpdateManager.
- All status on checks and updates in-progress or completed are
obtained from the UpdateManager. No more use of System properties
to broadcast update state.
- All update and checker tasks are intantiated on demand and threaded;
no more static references left over.
- Split out the Runners and Checkers from the Handlers and make the inheritance more sane.
- No more permanent NewsFetcher thread; run on the SimpleScheduler queue
and thread a checker task only to fetch the news.
- No more static NewsFetcher instance in routerconsole.
All helper methods that are still required are moved to NewsHelper.
The UpdateManager implements the policy for when to check and download.
All requests go through the UpdateManager.
For each update type, there's several parts:
- The xxxUpdateHandler implements the Updater
- The xxxUpdateChecker implements the UpdateTask for checking
- The xxxUpdateRunner implements the UpdateTask for downloading
New and moved classes:
web/ update/

new ConsoleUpdateManager.java
new PluginUpdateChecker.java from PluginUpdateChecker
PluginUpdateChecker -> PluginUpdateHandler.java
PluginUpdateHandler.java -> PluginUpdateRunner
new UnsignedUpdateHandler.java
UnsignedUpdateHandler -> UnsignedUpdateRunner.java
new UnsignedUpdateChecker from NewsFetcher
UpdateHandler.java remains
new UpdateHandler.java
new UpdateRunner.java from UpdateHandler
move NewsHandler from NewsFetcher
new NewsFetcher
new NewsTimerTask
new DummyHandler
Initial checkin. Unfinished, untested, unpolished.
Now, Ajax will be used first, and will fall back to IFrame if JS is disabled,
and a separate page if on a text or mobile browser.
Also, /home and /console (and everywhere) now all have the same summary bar
content, which currently defaults to the original full listing.
Note: this now refreshes along with the rest of the sidebar, so the news.xml
file is read once every 15s - it may be better to cache the headings somewhere,
though it's debatable whether reading the cache file is better than reading the
news.xml file...
