Request-Level Options

[zachkinstner]

Introduce an options collection at the request level. Some interesting options might be:

• Override default timeout limit
• Override default graph name
• Set some RexProMessage setting(s)
• Omit the command results (see #9)

Probable request structure:

• Request ID
• Session ID
• Timer
• Error
• Options
  • Key: Value
  • Key: Value
• Command List
  • Command
  • Command

Unknown options keys and invalid option values would return a request-level error.

Since RexConnectConsole operates at the Command level, this feature only applies to RexConnectServer.

Perhaps some of the example options above would be better-suited as Config settings. This would allow the console to use them. It would also allows the server to, for example, increase the timeout for a particular command within a request.

Possible option: auto-commit an individual query within a session. RexPro provides a transaction parameter, which specifies whether a query should be wrapped in a transaction. It's not clear to me right now if:

• A) only the current query would be committed
• B) all prior in-session queries would be committed
• C) the g variable gets overwritten, and the session becomes corrupted

Option (A) is ideal, but it seems that (B) or (C) are more likely cases. In any case, I can't really think of a good use case for this right now.
