1. Haskel library `pg-client-hs` has been updated to expose a function that helps listen to `postgres` notifications over a `channel` in this [PR](https://github.com/hasura/pg-client-hs/pull/5)
2. The server records an event in a table `hdb_catalog.hdb_cache_update_event` whenever any `/v1/query` (that changes metadata) is requested. A trigger notifies a `cache update` event via `hasura_cache_update` channel
3. The server runs two concurrent threads namely `listener` and `processor`. The `listener` thread listens to events on `hasura_cache_update` channel and pushed into a `Queue`. The `processor` thread fetches events from that `Queue` and processes it. Thus server rebuilds schema cache from database and updates.
CircleCI jobs are run for any PR that is submitted to the repo. This PR adds a check to decide whether the job should be run or not.
Figured out that CircleCI has a way to gracefully terminate a job:
```
circleci-agent step halt
```
A `.ciignore` file is ran against all the changes in the PR to decide whether the PR should be built or not. If the answer comes out as `no`, a file is written at `/buid/skip_job.txt`. This is done in the `check_build_worthiness` step.
All further jobs, in the beginning, looks for this file and gracefully terminates the job if this file is present. The directory is passed down to the jobs as the workspace.
```yaml
skip_job_on_ciignore: &skip_job_on_ciignore
run: |
if [ -f /build/skip_job.txt ]; then
echo "halting job due to /build/skip_job.txt"
circleci-agent step halt
fi
```

There are some known issues on jobs that are run when PR is merged to master, need to address them after this PR is merged.
* read cookie while initialising websocket connection (fix#1660)
* add tests for cookie on websocket init
* fix logic for tests
* enforce cors, and flag to force read cookie when cors disabled
- as browsers don't enforce SOP on websockets, we enforce CORS policy
on websocket handshake
- if CORS is disabled, by default cookie is not read (because XSS
risk!). Add special flag to force override this behaviour
* add log and forward origin header to webhook
- add log notice when cors is disabled, and cookie is not read on
websocket handshake
- forward origin header to webhook in POST mode. So that when CORS is
disabled, webhook can also enforce CORS independently.
* add docs, and forward all client headers to webhook
Rename the admin secret key header used to access GraphQL engine from X-Hasura-Access-Key to X-Hasura-Admin-Secret.
Server CLI and console all support the older flag but marks it as deprecated.
* 1) Tests for creating permissions
2) Test for constraint_on with GraphQL insert on_conflict
* Run tests with access key and webhook
* Tests for GraphQL query with quoted columns
* Rewrite test-server.sh so that it can be run locally
* JWT based tests
* Tests with various postgres types
* For tests on select queries, run setup only once per class
* Tests for v1 count queries
* Skip teardown for tests that does not modify data
* Workaround for hpc 'parse error when reading .tix file'
* Move GeoJson tests to the new structure
* Basic tests for v1 queries
* Tests for column, table or operator not found error cases on GraphQL queries
* Skip test teardown for mutation tests which does not change database state, even when it returns 200.
* testing console tests in the ci
* console: making cypress wait for the server to start
* console: fixing failing tests
* console: update failing test
* console: cleaned up modify tests
* console: fixed a failing test for api-explorer
* server: basic test setup
* server: use the default transaction mode
* server: basic tests in yaml files
* server: restructure test setup and some more tests
