PowerDNS 3.x API does not support setting or getting account info.
This patch lets PowerDNS 3.x users use the rest of the interface without problems.
Account stuff still does not work.
A message is logged in debug mode, to help with troubleshooting on newer versions
of PowerDNS.
Adds an `allow_quick_edit` setting, using the improved setting handling logic from PR #287 to toggle whether records are editable by simply clicking the row or not.
Aims to fix#288
For a setting to be useful, the code has to be able to make sense of it anyway. For this reason it makes sense, that the available settings are defined within the code, rather than in the database, where a missing row has previously caused problems. Instead, settings are now written to the database, when they are changed.
So instead of relying on the database initialization process to create all available settings for us in the database, the supported settings and their defaults are now in a `defaults` dict in the Setting class. With this in place, we can stop populating the `setting` table as a part of database initialization and it will be much easier to support new settings in the future (we no longer need to do anything to the database, to achieve that).
Another benefit is that any changes to default values will take effect automatically, unless the admin has already modified that setting to his/her liking.
To make it easier to get the value of a setting, falling back to defaults etc, a new function `get` has been added to the Setting class. Call it as `Setting().get('setting_name'), and it will take care of returning a setting from the database or return the default value for that setting, if nothing was found.
The `get` function returns `None`, if the setting passed to the function, does not exist in the `Setting.defaults` dict - Indicating that we don't know of a setting by that name.
To avoid problems with inactive DB connections, SQLAlchemy provides a `pool_pre_ping` option, that described in more detail here:
http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/core/pooling.html#disconnect-handling-pessimistic
In flask environments, it's enabled by subclassing SQLAlchemy, which is what I've done here.
Fixes errors like:
sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (_mysql_exceptions.OperationalError) (2006, 'MySQL server has gone away') which results in an Error 500 in the UI.
For DNSSEC enabled zones to function correctly, they need to be rectified on update.
This changes the DNSSEC enable/disable code to set API-RECTIFY:
To `true` when activating DNSSEC on a domain
To `false` when deactivating DNSSEC on a domain
With this, PowerDNS promises to handle the needed rectifications.
