# sysinfo
# Author: R. W. Rodolico
# Primary client portion of sysinfo system. Will collect information about its current
# host and create a report containing the information. This report can then be processed
# by process_sysinfo.pl on the collection computer.

#
# Version 1.3 20071104
# added capability of e-mailing the results by itself and external configuration file

# Version 1.3.1 20071110
# added du -sk to explicitly do directory sizes in 'k'. Also, fixed some documentation

# Version 1.3.3 20081104
# modified hostname to hostname -f, and allowed user to place custom value in configuration file
# also, modified to go with Debian standards in preparation to creating a debian package.

# Version 2.0 20081208
# Modified to use different libraries for different OS's in preparation to porting to Windows
# Uses different packages based on which OS it is on.

# Version 3.0 20120923
# Major revision. Most internal intelligence pulled out and put into modules and data transfer format has been changed to YAML
#
# Base system only pulls client name, machine name and machine number, all of which can be set in the configuration file
# if the value is not set, it attempts various means to determine the values and, if it fails, aborts with an error message
#    client name -- REQUIRED, must come from configuration file
#    machine name --  REQUIRED, if not set via conf file, attempts hostname command (hostname -f) or module getHostName
#    machine number -- REQUIRED, if not set via conf file, attempts "echo `hostname -f`-clientname | md5sum" or module getSerial
# modules are stored in "configuration directory/modules" (/etc/sysinfo/modules on most Linux systems) and are processed in 
# standard sort order (case sensitive). 
# Module filenames may contain alpha-numeric, underscore and the period only (files containing other characters are ignored).
# Modules should set their exit code to 0 for success, and non-zero for failure
# Modules should return 0 or more tab delimited, newline terminated strings, processed as one record per line
# A module return string line is processed as follows:
#     category \t [category \t ...] \t key \t value
# example:
#    System \t num_cpu \t 1
#    System \t Users \t root \t /root/
# (note, if non-zero exit code returned, return value is assumed to be error message and is printed to STDERR) 
# sysinfo stores the result in a hash, using categories as the keys (case sensitive), thus, the above results in
# $store{'System'}{'num_cpu'} = '1';
# $store{'System'}{'Users'}{'root'} = '/root';
# upon completion, sysinfo converts the $store hash into an XML or YAML string for transfer
# It then sends it to the main server as defined in the conf file.
# NOTE: YAML is hand crafted to kill any requirements for external libraries
# see sub hashToYAML for details

# Version 3.0.1 20160321
# Renamed to sysinfo-client to not conflict with Linux package sysinfo
# created installer in Perl to not rely on package managers
# default path for configuration file changed to /etc/camp/sysinfo-client.conf
# $VERSION changed to $DATA_VERSION to not conflict with $main::VERSION (script version vs data format version)
#
# Version 3.1.0 20160401
# module and script dirs now arrays to be searched. Idea is that default
#    modules/scripts are in installdir/modules or installdir/scripts, and
#    user supplied are in /etc/scripts and /etc/modules
# Tightened up the file systems checks, requiring all scripts and modules
#    be set 0700 at least, and owned by root
# Transport layers now an array, and if one fails to send the report, the others
#    are tried in turn
# Worked on logic for sendReport to give better error checking.
# Doing a search for the configuration file matching cwd, then /etc/camp, then /usr/local/etc/camp
# Self documenting, ie a key for software\tsysinfo-client\version\current version is inserted
#
# Version 3.1.1 20160915 RWR
# set use strict and use warnings, then fixed errors
#
# Version 3.1.2 20160922 RWR
# $exitCode 1 (not applicable to this machine) does not throw warning
#
# Version 3.1.3 20161010 RWR
# Removed extra use warnings
#
# Version 3.1.4 20161023 RWR
# Would error out if moduledir does not exist, added a return
#
# Version 3.1.5 20170327 RWR
# On freeBSD systems, was looking in wrong place for configuration file
#
# Version 3.2.0 20180320 RWR
# Major change in the configuration file format; All entries are loaded into 
# hash %configuration, so clientname is no longer $clientname, but is now
# $configuration{'clientname'}
# NOT backwards compatible
# changed configuration to be loaded into hash (vs directly loaded into variables)
# added UUID to configuration file
#
# Version 3.2.1 20180424 RWR
# Finally got a semi-stable version of this running. Fixed a bunch of bugs
# and appears to be working correctly.
#
# Version 3.3.0 20190419 RWR
# Converted to use YAML config file
#
# Version 3.4.0 20191111 RWR
# adding logging with priority. logging is a hash inside of %cvonfiguration which contains the following
# $configuration{ 'logging' } = {
#    'log type'  => 'string',
#    'log level' => #,
#    'other params' => something,
# };
#
# The default log type is cache, which builds an array of all messages passed. When the log type is changed, the cache is
# checked for values and, if they exist, they are dumped to the log, then removed.
#
# Currently, the only log type is 'file', which has one other additional parameter, 'log path' which
# points to the actual log to be created. The log is NOT limited in size, so use something else to
# do that.
# log level is an integer which is compared the a priority passed to the logging function. The
# higher log level is set, the more verbose the log.
# 0 - Normal, basically logs when the program starts and ends, and any warnings.
# 1 - a little more information about flow
# 2 - Gives ending information on structures
# 3 - Gives a lot of info about structures when they are initialized and at the end
# 4 - Crazy. Dumps just about every structure every time they are changed
#
# $TESTING has been set to a binary. If true, the report is not sent via the transports, but is dumped to /tmp/sysinfo.testing.yaml
#
# Version 3.4.1 20191117 RWR
# Added syslog as a possible option for logging.

# sendResults( $parameters, $message, $scriptDirectory )
#
# Sends results of run to server using external script. If external

#
# Parameters
#  $parameters - a hash containing the information necessary to make the transfer
#  $message - the message to be sent
#  $scriptDirectory - path (not filename) of script to be executed
# 
# $parameters contains different key/value pairs depending on the script used
#             for example, a stand-alone SMTP script may need a username/password,
#             smtp server name, port number, from and to address
#             while an http transfer may only need a script name
#             See the individual scripts to determine what parameters need to be
#             filled in.
#             The only required parameter is 'sendScript' which must contain the
#             name of the script to execute (and it must be located in $scriptDirectory)
# SCRIPT must contain one sub named doit, that accepts three parameters, the hash, 
#       the message, and, optionally, the script directory
#
# If script not defined, just dump to STDOUT. With a properly set up cron job, the output
# would then be sent via e-mail to an administrative account, possibly root
