This commit is to fix issue #325.
There were three issues with the PIP installations.
1) If multiple instances of the same platform were found, pip could
attempt to install the same dependency multiple times at once by being
run simultaneously in different processes. This would cause pip
failures due to race conditions. This has been fixed by using a thread
lock to allow only one instance of PIP to run at a time.
2) PIP would not check the target if the dependency was already met.
This would lead to PIP attempting to reinstall every dependency on
every boot. This would eventually fail because the package was already
installed, but it significantly increased boot time, especially on
Raspberry Pis.
3) PIP would not upgrade packages that were already installed. Usually,
when a version is specified to PIP, it will install the specified
version if it is not already installed, even without the \-\-upgrade
flag. This behavior did not work when using the \-\-target flag. When
using the target flag, a new install is always attempted, but nothing
will be overwritten unless the \-\-upgrade flag is also given. This
caused new packages to not be installed when their dependencies were
increased. This is fixed by defaulting towards using the
\-\-upgrade flag.
Since the requirements only change when the software is updated,
this adds a command line switch to disable pip installs on
startup. The default behavior is maintained when the switch is
not specified. Skipping pip helps a lot with startup on older RPi
hardware.
Created three additional flags for the hass command:
-v - Toggle verbose log file output
—pid-file - Specify PID file path
—daemon - Launch as daemon (nix only)
The core now binds to SIGQUIT on nix systems to trigger a clean
shutdown.
Modified HTTP server to write logging messages through the logging
module.
