backend/.golangci.yml declared version: "2" on line 1 but used the
golangci-lint v1 schema below it: a top-level linters-settings key and
an issues.exclude-use-default key that does not exist in v2. Under v2
that config does not validate, so every threshold in it was inert --
lll fell back to its 120-column default rather than the intended 88,
and funlen, cyclop and dupl were not applied at all. The `0 issues.`
result the repo has been relying on was therefore meaningless.
Replace it with the org-standard file verbatim (sha256
021cc83f4e6fc7c31b95b34b846723dfcf20b66b7baeea1dc40406e643346bcb) and
repoint the golangci-lint pin in Dockerfile.backend from v2.7.2 to the
org-standard v2.12.2.
Guard against the config drifting from the standard again by asserting
its sha256 as the first step of the backend lint target. The check is a
local hash comparison against a constant in the Makefile: it needs no
network, fetches nothing, and adds no unpinned external reference to
the build path. It also catches a strictly larger class of breakage
than schema validation would, since a schema-valid but non-canonical
config is exactly how this file got into its broken state.
With the config actually loading, lll reports server.go:65 at 93
columns. Fix it, plus the two other over-long lines called out on the
issue (server.go:97 at 81 and reportbuf.go:166 at 88) which are inside
the 88-column lint limit but over the 77-column hard wrap in the Go
styleguide. All three were long //nolint justifications on the code
line; move the justification into a preceding comment block and leave
a short directive behind. No suppression is added or widened, and
.golangci.yml is not touched after the copy.
Drop the //nolint:wsl in server.go entirely rather than relocating it.
The standard config disables wsl, so the directive suppressed nothing;
removing it still yields `0 issues.`
Verified: `cd backend && make check` reports `0 issues.` and passes
with the network unavailable, root `make check` passes, and
`docker build -f Dockerfile.backend .` builds green against the pinned
v2.12.2.
Place the backend Dockerfile at repo root as Dockerfile.backend so
the build context includes .git, giving git describe access for
version stamping. Fix .gitignore pattern to anchor /netwatch-server
so it does not exclude cmd/netwatch-server/. Remove .git from
.dockerignore. Update CI workflow and backend Makefile docker target.
Introduce the Go backend (netwatch-server) with an HTTP API that
accepts telemetry reports and persists them as zstd-compressed JSONL
files. Reports are buffered in memory and flushed to disk when the
buffer reaches 10 MiB or every 60 seconds.
