Originally, DiskstatsMenu differentiated between an empty pattern
entered by the user (which in the shell version meant "match all")
and any other valid pattern by replacing it with /(?=)/.
However, Diskstats now carries the original string, inside the
OptionParser object, so the above was redundant.
/proc/diskstats actually has two formats, one for devices, one for
partitions. The latter wasn't handled by the original pt-diskstats,
but one of the previous commits introducing some minimal handling
for that. This commit removes that, since the partition format
doesn't have enough information to be useful.
Still TODO: Attributes still have a single method that doubles
as a getter and setter. The constructor for Diskstats is still
weird -- A tad more stricter than it should be, if anything.
->print_rest is still rest, even though that's hardly
memorable, mostly because of a lack of ideas on what to
rename it. The main loop in the Menu is still a while (1).
As a nice perk, it's nearly twice as fast now! It also adds a
_very_ experimental --memory-for-speed argument, which
turns on memoization for the current biggest bottleneck.
Missing a doc overhaul and tests, but this deals with most of the
feature upgrades in the blueprint.
The shell version of pt-diskstats is now in bin has pt-diskstats-shell,
in case that's needed.
With this most of the interactive mode should be working.
pt_diskstats.pm has the documentation and can be used for testing,
which should be in the next commit.
This commit also includes the revamped command line options.
Mostly bits and pieces at the moments. ReadKeyMini is a portable-ish
Term::ReadKey. Used here by DiskstatsMenu, which is currently only
for show.
Diskstats has most of the logic of the old pt-diskstats, with parts
now implemented by the DiskstatsGroupBy* classes; The latter subclass
the former.
As mentioned at the start, this is a work in progress. In addition to to
not having all the parts attached, also missing are the data-gathering mode,
the command-line argument parsing, and a large amount of tests.
