trowel

Releases

Start the devcontainer Feature’s Trowel service only after the Ansible Feature’s ansible-setup s6-rc oneshot succeeds when that service is installed, and install after the Ansible Feature. Without the Ansible Feature, Trowel starts as before, and the OpenBao Agent dependency stays independent.

Read configuration snippets from the conf.d directory beside the config file, such as /etc/trowel/conf.d. Their webhooks and subjects are added in file name order, a snippet that sets server, nats, or vault already set elsewhere is an error, and Trowel reloads when a snippet is added, changed, or removed. DEB and RPM packages and the devcontainer Feature create an empty /etc/trowel/conf.d.

Publish the public docs from docs/user in the wyrd.foo format, and point the demo recorder at docs/user/assets.

Export OpenTelemetry traces, metrics, and logs, configured with the standard OTEL_* environment variables, and carry W3C trace context from webhooks through JetStream to HTTP and command destinations and dead letters.
Reload the configuration when its file changes or on SIGHUP, keeping the running configuration when the new one fails to load, validate, resolve its secrets, or start.
SIGHUP reloads the configuration instead of stopping the process, and the systemd unit maps systemctl reload trowel to it.
Name HTTP destinations in logs, dead-letter Relay-Error headers, and spans by their URL as written, with ${NAME} references left unexpanded unless the new http.show lists them and userinfo redacted. A URL written without references shows only its scheme, host, and port, where it previously appeared in full.

Keep generated Python bytecode out of the repository.
Publish Linux packages with the AUR service installation profile.
Document trace continuity from a central webhook publisher to satellite relays with distinct durable consumers.

Relay HTTP webhooks into NATS JetStream and JetStream messages to HTTP endpoints or commands, with secrets read inline, from files, or from OpenBao or Vault over https or a unix socket, published as a container image, APT, RPM, and AUR packages, and an s6-overlay devcontainer Feature.
