Monthly summary for 2025-01 focused on the canvas-plugins repository. Key features delivered: - Robust Plugin Installer with new installation flow and AWS SigV4 integration: overhauled installer framework; dedicated module for installation logic; new plugin-related exceptions. CI/workflows and example environment files updated to support the new installation mechanism. Removed boto3 in favor of a custom AWS Signature v4 implementation for S3 interactions. Commits: 219f54e55a986627ddb92471c290facd3836dac9; a0abdec96efbf779bf2831d53d5bdf5f0222e287. Major bugs fixed: - Automatic restart of plugin runner after plugin installation: ensure plugin runner restarts correctly after installation by sending a SIGHUP signal and removing an unnecessary load_plugins() call to prevent stale configurations and missed updates. Commit: bd82819f31d2948a85ba7ee8e6dab4d1021b02ba. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improves reliability and security of the plugin lifecycle, reducing downtime and configuration drift as plugins are installed and updated. Consolidates installation logic into a dedicated module, minimizes external dependencies (no boto3), and aligns S3 interactions with a custom SigV4 implementation for better control and auditing. CI/CD improvements support the new installer and environment setup, accelerating developer onboarding and plugin development. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Python architecture refactor and modular design, exception handling, signal-based process management, AWS Signature Version 4 integration for S3, dependency elimination (boto3), CI/CD workflow enhancements, and maintainable codebase changes for plugin lifecycle.
