We've decided to give up on trying to keep ScanCore, AN::Tools and Striker as three separate things. We had originally hoped to make ScanCore easily separatable from the Anvil!, but this was adding increasing complexity to the project and complexity is the enemy of reliability.
In this release, AN::Tools becomes Anvil::Tools, all configuration files move to /etc/anvil and all programs and data files move to /usr/sbin/anvil. Words files are now merged, as are SQL schemas (ScanCore agents will still maintain their own, later). The journald tag has changed from 'an-tools' to 'anvil'.
Other changes;
* Tools.t has been updated to handle existing tests. New methods and parameters still need to have tests added though.
* Added a simple test.pl script used for testing things outside the main program. It will be removed before final release.
* Added the simple 'watch_logs' bash script to more easily tail output.

* Started using Time::HiRes and recording the run time of programs using AN::Tools at log level 2.
* Added a check in tools/an-prep-database to write journald.conf.d/an.conf to disable rate limiting to allow high log levels without losing messages.

* Added a start-check to make sure 'home' could read the host UUID and exit if not.
* Removed network_interface_current_name / network_interface_requested_name from the network_interfaces DB table and used simply network_interface_name.
* Added caching to Storage->read_file().
* Now record form answers in the variables table as 'form::<form_name>::<variable>::value' and read the same when the form is first loaded.

* Updated Database->connect to always test if hosts table exists and load the core schema if not.
* Fixed Database->write to log all SQL when 'sys::database::log_transactions' is set.
* Got tools/scancore-update-states scanning and recording network interface data to the database. Also removed it writing out the XML status file.
Signed-off-by: Digimer <digimer@alteeve.ca>
* Added a check to Database->archive_database() to return immediately if the check_tables array is empty.
* Created the new Get->cgi() method that reads in CGI variables (as set by the special 'cgi_list' variable).
* Got more work done on the config_step1 funtions.

* Changed Storage->write_file to touch the target file and set it's permissions before writing it out when 'secure' is set.
* Did a bunch of general cleanup and minor bug fixes.

* Changed all methods that returned 'undef' on error to return '!!error!!' instead.
* Created Convert->round(), ->comma(), ->bytes_to_human_readable() and ->human_readable_to_bytes().
* Created Database->archive_databases(), ->check_lock_age(), ->lock_file() and ->resync_databases() (last one is not started yet).
Signed-off-by: Digimer <digimer@alteeve.ca>
* Created the new System->determine_host_type() method that tries to determine the host type based on the host name (or via sys::host_type).
Signed-off-by: Digimer <digimer@alteeve.ca>
* Added the variables table to the core SQL schema.
* Added Databsae->insert_or_update_variables() and ->read_variable().

This continues the work of adding database support (and ancilliary functions) to m3.
* Adds Alert->check_alert_sent() and Alert->register_alert(), providing similar functions as in m2.
* Adds Database->disconnect(), Database->insert_or_update_states(), Database->locking() (still in progress), Database->mark_active(), Database->_find_behind_database(), Database->_mark_database_as_behind() and Database->_test_access().

* This is an in-progress commit working on adding the Database methods. Much of it is copy/pasted from v2 and none of the new code is tested yet. It will certainly fail to compile.

* Created Get->uuid to generate random UUIDs via 'uuidgen'.
* Created Storage->read_mode that returns the standard 4-digit mode of a directory or file.
* Created System->stop_daemon to stop daemons.
* Altered Template->get to take fully defined path names.
* Altered Template->skin to use the 'set' parameter (as documented) instead of 'skin'. Also made it so that a skin could be set even if the skin directory doesn't exist via the new 'fatal' parameter.

* Changed Log->secure and Log->level to take new settings using 'set => X' parameter to bring them inline with other modules.

* Fixed a bug in Tools.pm->_set_paths where a path set to '#!not_found!#' was being set (the existing value should have been left alone).
* Fixed some escaping in Log->entry. Also added some additional checks to error more gracefully.
* Created Storage->copy_file() that, well, copies files.
* Fixed Storage->find to not call Log->entry.
* Fixed Storage->make_directory() to only pass the first digit when passed a GID or UID with more that one digit (as can happen with GIDs).
* Updated Storage->write_file() to take 'secure' as a parameter to treat the file contents as containing secure data for logging purposes.
* Created System->check_daemon and ->start_daemon to check and start systemd daemons, as needed.
* Updated scancore-daemon to support running things just once on invocation (effectively run on boot or daemon restart). Call scancore-database. from here.
* Added reading striker.conf to scancore-update-states.

* Created Convert->cidr() that will convert dotted decimal subnets to CIDR notation and vice versa.
* Created Database->get_local_id that returns the ID from striker.conf that matches the local host, if any,
* Created Get->network_details that returns the host name and a list of interfaces and their IP addresses (if any).
* Created System->call() that takes a shell call and returns the output.
* Created icon for the top-right bar that are "on" (lit up).
* Created a skeleton striker.conf file.
* Created the new scancore-database tool that will manage ScanCore databases.

* Fixed a bug in Storage->write_file() where the parent directory wasn't created if it was missing. Also removed passing the mode to the parent directory creation as the file mode rarely applies to the directory (ie: 644 breaks directories but is common for files).
* Changed Template->skin to return just the skin name, not the path.
* Updated scancore-update-states to write the network state information to both xml (for ScanCore) and JSON (for jquery) files.
Signed-off-by: Digimer <digimer@alteeve.ca>
* Renamed 'defaults::languages' to 'defaults::language'.
* Created Storage->change_mode(), Storage->change_owner(), Storage->make_directory() and Storage->write_file() that does what their names imply, using the shell commands instead of the built-in commands (may switch to them later). The ->make_directory() method will create any needed parent directories.
* Moved System->read_file() to the Storage module as it made more sense there. For now, System is empty.
* Created Words->language to set or check the active output language.
* Fixed Template->get() to use Words->language.
* Updated Words->string() to take the new 'string' parameter which, when set, is used instead of the 'key' parameter and is treated as a pre-retrieved string, so replacement keys are directly injected.
* Updated Template->get() to take the 'variables' parameter and then uses Words->string({string => ...}) to process the replacement keys.
* Updated tools/scancore-update-states to write out the network interface states to the status.xml file.

* Created Log->language that sets/returns the active log language.
* Created Log->variables that takes a hash reference and logs their variable: [$value] pairs.
* Created the new /usr/sbin/striker/ directory which is added to the list of search directories. We will store our tools here.
* Created the scancore-daemon and scancore-daemon.unit files which will handle all the things we used to use crontab for, minus ScanCore itself.
* Created the scancore-update-states that will eventually store some machine state information in a file that the web browser can read.
* Created the cgi-bin/home script that will be the main landing page for the Striker UI.
* Added some of the initial html files.

* Added an index.html and favicon as well as a very basic 'home' cgi script which will allow the web development to start.

* Added Get->host_uuid that reads the host's UUID from dmidecode.
* Added Log->_adjust_log_level to automatically change the active log level when -V (0), -v (1), -vv (2), -vvv (3) or -vvvv (4) are passed.

* Got Log->entry() working now. Decided to use journald logging exclusively... They've thought a lot more about logging than we will, and the idea that there are special facilities for sensitive log entries and the ability to perform remote logging was too appealing.
* Created Log->level() to set/check the currently active log level.
* Created Log->secure() to set/check whether sensitive log entries will be recorded.

* Added Get->date_and_time() method.
* Added the 'initialize' parameter to Storage->search_directories() to have a cleaner way of initializing the search directories.
Signed-off-by: Digimer <digimer@alteeve.ca>
* Added the new $an->_get_hash_reference() method that takes a key in the format "foo::bar" and returns the contents of $an->data->{foo}{bar}.
* Added the new Words->clean_spaces() method that removes leading and trailing spaces from a string, and condenses multiple spaces into single ones to simplify string parsing.
Signed-off-by: Digimer <digimer@alteeve.ca>
* Created tests for most existing module methods now.
* Updated Storage->search_directories to handle merging @INC and $ENV{'PATH'} when called with an invalid directories parameter, and exploited this behaviour to initially set the directory search list. This also deprecated the Tools->_add_environment_path_to_search_directories() method.
* Added Storage->read_config based on the old v2 'Storage->read_conf()'. Also ported over the old Tools->_add_hash_reference() and Tools->_make_hash_reference() methods to assist with this method's operation.
* Created Words->key() that returns the raw string for a given language and key.
