Branch: refs/heads/master Home: https://github.com/tribe29/checkmk Commit: 8b7ec16a1edf70b246f13b4a17601e8c5e65f1ac https://github.com/tribe29/checkmk/commit/8b7ec16a1edf70b246f13b4a17601e8c5… Author: Mathias Laurin <mathias.laurin(a)tribe29.com> Date: 2020-09-02 (Wed, 02 Sep 2020) Changed paths: M cmk/base/data_sources/_data_sources.py M cmk/fetchers/controller.py M tests/unit/cmk/fetchers/test_controller.py Log Message: ----------- Extend and reuse fetcher I/O protocol The core already makes some minimal parsing so that errors may be reported early. This, however, introduces some minimal coupling between the Python part of the protocol and its C++ part. Therefore, it is not trivial to introduce a new protocol. In principle, it is also in our best interest to minimalize the number of protocols. This patch modifies the existing header by renaming some fields and extending others. The changes in Python are mirrored in C++. CMK-5316 Change-Id: I5e72e4d408b257e734f25ac7664bd92c384f777e
