[schema] add utility function to build a CubicWebSchema from a namespace Will be useful for testing computed attributes and relations.

Fix test migration crash waiting to happen due to inferred relations Avoid crashing when a relation definition which is already known (due to being inferred) gets explicitly added. As explained in a comment, this would deserve more thinking, but at least this fixes a test failure with computed relations.

fix typo in syncschema hooks

[test] Make test_undo_api less random The order in which hooks are run is not predictable if they have the same 'order' attribute, which is the case for SetOwnershipHook and SetInitialStateHook. So don't assume in_state will be set before created_by.

merge 3.17.17 into 3.18 branch

[wsgi] Fix unicode decoding in POST The application/x-www-form-urlencoded sent by firefox or chrome is utf-8 encoded BEFORE being urlencoded. Hence, decoding must urldecode THEN decode the utf-8 string, and not the other way around.

[wsgi] add the --debug / -D option to the wsgi command

[wsgi] Fix multiple variables reading in params Closes #4306081

[wsgi] Set self.vreg Closes #4306049

[wsgi] Add missing import Closes #4305988

[wsgi] Fix https detection - 'HTTPS' is not part of wsgi, it is a CGI variable. The right wsgi variable is 'wsgi.url_scheme' - Force https if url starts with '/https/' (and remove the prefix from the path. Closes #4305985

[wsgi] Re-set the request content after calling the inherited constructor. Closes #4191813

[wsgi] Honor the 'CONTENT_TYPE' wsgi variable See http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0333/#environ-variables Closes #4191812

Added tag cubicweb-version-3.17.17, cubicweb-debian-version-3.17.17-1, cubicweb-centos-version-3.17.17-1 for changeset 57e9d1c70512

[pkg] prepare 3.17.17

[web/headers] don't list a request header twice in "Vary"

[test] silence a few more deprecation warnings in unittest_hooks self.session → cnx.

[session] call rollback in Connection.__exit__ If we just free the cnxset and clear the Connection, we're missing the pending operation's rollback_event callbacks, which may be needed for cleanup.

[devtools] pre_setup_database takes a Connection, not a Session

[source/native] cPickle is available in all supported pythons

devtools: deprecate .req_from_url Which uses .request() And instead provide .admin_request_from_url, which is a context manager yielding the request.

[tests] Add a webtest based TestCase class Closes #4002134

[tests] Move 'anonymous_allowed' property from CubicWebServerTC to CubicWebTC The effective set of the property on the config is now done later that before, ie at the end of CubicWebTC.init_config instead of before. It is believed not to have an impact on the test suites that uses `anonymous_allowed`. Related to #4002134

[compat] Remove imports of "any" and "all" from lgc (closes #4306044) They're builtin since python 2.5.

[css] Remove the `div` tag specification of the pendingDelete css rule The HTML tag was changed by e2f96b16c3bd from a div to a span without changing the css rule accordingly. Closes #4285248.

[cwvreg] cleanup the event manager when reloading modules Closes #3848995 The event manager callbacks are not cleaned during reloading. So the callback defined in the reloaded module appears twice (old and new version). This may cause problem when the old version is called.

[test] Add missing attribute 'add' permission in test schema Silences yams warning.

[facet html] Add surrounding div with "facetBody" class to "has_text" facet. This makes its html structure consistent with the other facets and fixes both css and a javascript behaviour (hide the facet body when clicking on its title). Closes #3797501.

[cwctl] don't prompt for cube options in automatic mode Closes #3984223

[serverctl] fix default value for db-init config-level Otherwise cubicweb-ctl db-init --automatic complains that "--automatic and --config-level should not be used together" when they weren't. Closes #3984336

[web] Return useful error messages when exceptions arise in ajax controllers (closes #3932503) The call to super() in RemoteCallException passes 'reason' all the way to python's Exception.__init__() which is then stored in Exception.args. This way, CubicWebPublisher.ajax_error_handler() gets a useful error message when calling unicode(exc). The change to uilib is just to prepend the exception type name. Just a small improvement.

[test] Fix test breakage uncovered by previous changeset Now that Binary.__eq__ doesn't always return true, this test started failing. CWAttribute.defaultval is zpickled, and the description_format attribute is a String, meaning unicode, so adjust the expected test result.
