[server] Drop update_config method of source It does not make sense anymore to update the config of a source instance (subclass of cubicweb.server.sources.AbstractSource) now that they are always built from database information (CWSource). In datafeed and ldapfeed, we move all code from "update_config" method in "init" method. This changeset fixes LDAPFeedUserDeletionTC.test_a_filter_inactivate() failure (unittest_ldapsource.py) introduces in previous changeset.

[server] Make "sources_by_uri" and "sources_by_eid" properties of repository I.e. do not populate these dict as repo initialization (bootstrap step) but always use information from database. This is needed because when multiple instances of the same application run, if one instance adds a CWSource the other ones will not see it. In particular, when using a scheduler instance, new CWSource will be added by the web instance and not seen by the scheduler which is supposed to update them. We thus define properties for sources_by_eid and sources_by_uri instead attributes on repository instance. CWSource entities are thus retrieved from database every time these properties are accessed. We factor out initialization of the "source" instance (subclass of cubicweb.server.source.AbstractSource) in a _sources() method. Note that this method takes care of calling "init" method on the source as well as "set_schema" (previously done in repo.set_schema(), which now only touches system_source). Accordingly the "init_sources_from_database" method is dropped along with "add_source"/"remove_source" methods. In syncsources hook, we thus drop: * SourceAddedOp operation which called repo.add_source() so that the SourceAddedHook only cares about checking source configuration now; * SourceRemovedOp and SourceRenamedOp operations for the same reason; * SourceConfigUpdatedOp as updating the live config of source is meaningless once we rely on them being retrieved from the database; * SourceHostConfigUpdatedHook hook which is now useless without call to SourceConfigUpdatedOp; In 3.10 migration script, remove usage of sources_by_uri repo attribute which, unless I'm missing something, appears useless (at least now). In tests: * unittest_datafeed: remove test_update_url method since we dropped respective hook; * unittest_ldapsource: LDAPFeedUserDeletionTC.test_a_filter_inactivate() currently fails because it still relies on live config being updated, this will be fixed in the next changeset once all "live source" logic will be removed.

Add a "Contributing" section to README with patch submission guidelines For the CubicWeb project and its dependencies, we now prefer patches submission and review by email on a public mailing list. We are thus moving away from the previous vcreview-based workflow taking place on the forge. This change is motivated by the following points: - the current reviewer assignment mechanism (pick a random reviewer, rely on reviewer availability rather than on willingness to review, send related patches to distinct people, etc.) is inefficient if not counter-productive; - most of the times, discussion only happens between the patch submitter and a reviewer with no easy way to increase the audience; - cubicweb-vcreview has no concept of patch series; - cubicweb-vcreview is not actively maintained anymore and its usability keeps deteriorating. We expect that email-based submission and review of patches will circumvent these limitations. Anybody interested in the project is welcome to subscribed to the mailing list and participate to the review process. This patch documents the basic workflow of patches submissions by email.

[cwctl] do only clean static data dir content (closes #17069762) deleting the directory itself is useless and may be a problem in automated deployment environments (user may not have permissions to delete or create that directory).

[cwctl] add a no-config-update option to the upgrade command (closes #17069607)

[cwconfig] Add "pyramid" config type to MCOMPAT dict I don't know what this is for exactly, but the accept_mode method below queries this dict with the configuration type name. And if the latter is "pyramid", it crashes since there's no key in MCOMPAT dict. So add one with the same value as "all-in-one". This code is called during "upgrade" migration in particular.

[pyramid] Avoid shutting down the repository at exit if it's already shutting down For install `cubicweb-ctl pyramid` command will explicitly call `repo.shutdown()` so the atexit hook is redundant. Prevent the latter to be executed when the repository is already shutting down (otherwise one gets an assertion error).

[server/test] Extract a "ldapsource" function in unittest_ldapsource.py We will add more use of this pattern in forthcoming changesets, so avoid repetition.

[server] Move "system" source initialization into its own method

[entities] Make CWSource's dictconfig method clearer

[entities] Move CWSource update_config method as a function in 3.15 migration script This script is the only caller of this method. In the code of the function, drop "skip_unknown" argument and continue accordingly upon OptionError.

[server/test] Turn "pull" method of LDAPFeedTestBase into a staticmethod Because it does not use reference to "self" (which should be "cls" for classmethod).

[py3] Use six.text_type instead of unicode in _CWSourceCfgMixIn.update_config()

[server] Drop condition on "3.10" migration in repo.init_sources_from_database() We'll duplicate the code of this method in forthcoming changeset so clean it up a bit of old stuff.

[pkg] Version 3.25.0rc2

[doc] More release note about session data handling mentionning deprecation of _cw.data and removal of get/set_shared_data.

[session] Drop long deprecated [get/set]_shared_data methods they are deprecated since 3.19 and access to the .data attribute itself deprecated in 3.25, so it's time to drop them.

[session] Drop the user session synchronization machinery which should not be necessary anymore since groups and properties are fetched for each request (cache lives in transaction_data).

[session] Avoid deprecation warning on access to Connection.data this attribute has been deprecated during the session related rework, remove warning by explicitly storing data in .transaction_data since session data is not anymore reachable through Connection object. This will allows simplification of session synchronization hooks in a later cset. Also since we do not rely anymore on session data here, we may at some point rewrite those properties to rely on the ORM instead of such custom caching.

[doc] Add release note about change in uicfg

merge 3.25 heads

[hg] Add generated slapd.conf to hgignore

Fix flake8 errors in unittest_cwctl

[cwctl] Drop 'cubicweb_' prefix when displaying cubes with 'cubicweb-ctl list' consistently with newcube / create commands. This is an alternate implementation to backed out changeset fe995d56c949. Closes #17054738

Fix flake8 errors in unittest_cwconfig

[config] Test loading of ccplugin modules to ensure ccplugin modules of cube as package aren't loaded twice, once as `cubicweb_<cube>.ccplugin`, once as `cubes.<cube>.ccplugin`. This test used to fail until fe995d56c949 has been backout. It requires calling `cleanup_sys_module` in `CubicWebConfigurationTC.tearDown` to remove any cube's submodule loaded during tests, so content of `sys.modules` may be tested.

[test] Extract out method-which-is-not-a-method mocking iter_entry_points to ease reuse and improve readability.

[cwconfig] Add a docstring on available_cubes method a renaming could be better at some point, but that's a start.

Backed out changeset fe995d56c949 available_cubes should not strip cubicweb_prefix but return actual package name for cube as package, since its output is also used to e.g. get ccplugin or site_cubicweb module name. Original aim of this set was to fix output of the "cubicweb-ctl list" command. This will be done by an alternate implementation in a later cset.

[hooks] Drop "logstats" hook It is now useless as its looping task would not run on a web instance because respective repository has no scheduler.

[hooks] Do not register "logstats" if repository has no scheduler

[server] Introduce an `has_scheduler` method on Repository This is to be used by client application to determine if looping tasks may be registered in the current process. By checking this, one will avoid the warning in looping_task method when the repository has no scheduler.

[server] Warn instead of failing when a looping task is registered and repo has no scheduler We should provide a way for client code to detect if they should register the looping task or not. See next patch for that.

[server] Exit quickly when a looping task is registered in maintenance mode In such cases the repository will not have a scheduler on purpose because the repository will not be kept running and will quickly shutdown after migration so that it's undesirable to have looping tasks being executed.

[config] Drop unused init_available_cubes method

[doc] Move content of former README.pyramid into relevant modules

Drop README.pyramid.rst file It has been kept since 3.24 when we merged pyramid-cubicweb and cubicweb-pyramid repositories into cubicweb's one waiting for someone to move the information in some canonical place but this never happened and this information is probably not so useful or already existing elsewhere. So just drop the file.

Make entypo link a true URL in README

Refer to cubicweb.readthedocs.io in README docs.cubicweb.org contains outdated documentation at the moment (and for quite some time); until it gets update, refer to the up-to-date documentation on readthedocs.

[server] don't catch exception from postcommit_event() if we are in test mode The historic behavior is to hide potential exception occurring in postcommit_event(). Unfortunately logging statements are hidden by default during tests and it become very hard to debug. At least raise if we are in test mode.

[pkg] Version 3.25.0rc1

[tox] Simplify command line to build the doc

[pyramid] Drop warning about pyramid_debugtoolbar not found in debug mode Some people way want to run a pyramid server in debug mode without the toolbar. This warning is annoying for them. Others should just install and *include* the toolbar by hand.

[pkg] Add development.ini.tmpl to "cubicweb.pyramid" package data Otherwise the file is not installed and `cubicweb-ctl create -c pyramid` does not work.

[skeleton] Don't use system site packages in tox environment As we changed this in cubicweb, there is a consensus that this is not the best practice so let us change it as well for skeleton.

[doc] Update "settings" pyramid documentation Document that without "bwcompat" we can use a development.ini file directly and add a dedicated section to list configuration options.

[doc] Update the "quickstart" page of pyramid documentation Again mentioning the two modes of operations and dropping references to prior implementation.

[doc] Rewrite "pyramid" index page in the book We drop references to pyramid-cubicweb and cubicweb-pyramid, remaining of the merge in 3.24. We now mention the two possible operation modes (with bwcompat being true or false).
