When processing binlog insert statements, we want to use `sharedColumns`
to decide which values to fetch and convert from the insert DML event.
We only want to `mappedShareColumns` to define the column names in the
`replace into ...` statement.
- Identifying textual characters sets; converting into specific type when applying dml events
- Refactored `ColumnsList`: introducing `Column` type
- Refactored `unsigned` handling, as part of `Column`
- `Column` type supports `convertArg()`: converting value of argument according to column data type
- DB URI attempts `utf8mb4,utf8,latin1` charsets in that order (first one to be recognized wins)
- Local tests filter by pattern
- Local tests append table schema on failure
- Local tests do not have postpone flag file
- Added character set local tests: `utf8`, `utf8mb4`, `latin1`
- Added `switch-to-rbr` flag; applying binlog format change if needed
- Using dedicated db instance for locking & renaming on applier (must be used from within same connection)
- Heartbeat now uses `time.RFC3339Nano`
- Swap tables works! Caveat: short table outage
- `--test-on-replica` works!
- retries: using `panicAbort`: from any goroutine, regardless of context, it is possible to terminate the operation
- Reintroduced changelog events listener on streamer. This is the correct implementation.
- `INSERT`, `DELETE`, `UPDATE` statements
- support for `--noop`
- initial support for `--test-on-replica`. Verifying against `--allow-on-master`
- Changelog events no longer read from binlog stream, because reading it may be throttled, and we have to be able to keep reading the heartbeat and state events.
They are now being read directly from table, mapping already-seen-events to avoid confusion
Changlelog listener pools table in 2*frequency of heartbeat injection
- Throttling variables protected by mutex
- Added `--throttle-additional-flag-file`: `operation pauses when this file exists; hint: keep default, use for throttling multiple gh-osc operations`
- ColumnList is not a `struct` which contains ordinal mapping
- More implicit write changelog + audit changelog
- builder now builds `DELETE` and `INSERT` queries from data it will eventually get from DML event
- Sanity check for binlog_row_image
- Restarting replication to be sure binlog settings apply
- Prepare for accepting `SIGHUP` (reloading configuration)
