[dataimport, migration] more fixes in the spirit of a6c32edabc8d: [entity, metadata] huuum, use resolvable url as cwuri... And fix existing ones. Closes #3390388

[doc] Fix typo in devrepo/fti

[doc/3.19] Clarify repoapi.get_repository usage Followup for 9a62c52d167e.

[server] use a connection instead of a session for user authentication

Use repoapi instead of dbapi for cwctl shell, upgrade and db-init Hopefully nobody uses dbapi-specific API in their migration scripts. I guess we'll find out.

[server/repo] use internal_cnx in init_sources_from_database

[server/session] avoid spurious warnings from Session.close Add internal non-noisy _rollback method.

[server] rename session to cnx in querier and plan They don't actually need a session, so let's make that clear.

[repo] Use a connection instead of a session for repo.stats()

[repo] Use a connection instead of a session for repo.gc_stats()

[repo] Use a connection instead of a session for repo.get_versions()

[webconfig] get_repository moved to repoapi

[schemaserial] Replace 'cursor' with 'cnx' We don't have cursors in rql, since execute is synchronous.

[book] basic documentation for LDAPfeed

[testlib] Use session.sessionid instead of deprecated session.id

Add data/pgdb to hgignore patterns PostgresTestDataBaseHandler uses it as datadir.

[test] make unittest_postgres pass Use PostgresApptestConfiguration which starts a postgresql cluster locally for the duration of the test.

[devtools] make PostgresTestDataBaseHandler start its own postgresql Don't depend on postgresql already running on the system, or on a static config. To use this, set the configcls attribute of your CubicWebTC-derived test class to PostgresApptestConfiguration. Caveats: - this won't work with several tests running concurrently from the same directory, since each would start its own cluster with a shared data directory and stomp on each other's toes - you need initdb/pg_ctl in $PATH, e.g /usr/lib/postgresql/$version/bin on Debian/Ubuntu systems. Closes #3489631

[web/staticcontrollers] create a unique temporary file for concat handling Predictable names means different processes can race against each other. Let's avoid that and use mkstemp to get a real unique temporary file, and atomically rename it when we're done. Closes #3524182

[server/repo] Use session.sessionid instead of session.id Silences deprecation warning.

[server/session] use _free_cnxset instead of free_cnxset to avoid warnings No need to make DeprecationWarning noise for something the user doesn't have any control over.

[server] Use internal_cnx instead of internal_session in init_repository

[server/session] session.id → session.sessionid The former causes deprecation warnings.

English typography Get rid of extra space before `!' and `?'

[repo] restore python 2.6 compatibility Broken in 12dfce15c8ea.

[server] use internal_cnx instead of internal_session in deserialize_schema

[server/schemaserial] rename cursor argument to cnx cursor is a sql concept it has no meaning for rql.

[repo] Use a connection instead of a session in Repository.properties()

[server/sources] replace references to dbapi with repoapi

[doc/3.19] Make repoapi description match code

[serverctl] remove broken schema-sync command As far as I can tell the migration handler hasn't had a cmd_synchronize_schema method since cubicweb 3.2.0.

[server/session] Fix docstring typo for InternalSession

[book] typo

[server] fix TypeErrors With multisource gone, cnxset.reconnect() doesn't take a source argument. Broken since d62e13eba033.

[notification] use an InternalManager object for notifications if we have an (email, lang) tuple The non-uniform handling of CWUser vs (email, lang) tuple has caused too many bugs; this change mostly unifies the two code paths. Closes #3381521

[req] if a user has a None property, fall back to the default This can happen for InternalManager; the normal CWUser implementation of property_value already has a similar fallback. Related to #3381521

[server] Allow setting an InternalManager's preferred language Related to #3381521

merge 3.18.2 into 3.19 branch

[migration/3.18] protect against attributes in db missing from fsschema Happens if a previous migration forgot a drop_attribute. Closes #3471609

[doc] Update copyright date to 2014 (closes #3463136)

[repoapi] Fix typos in doc strings and comments

[cwxml parser] minor pylint fixes

[devtools] make CubicWebTC.login as admin undo previous logins Fixes things when login is not used as a context manager.

[devtools] fix self.session._cnx vs self.cnx._cnx confusion after self.login Make sure the client connection and the session refer to the same server connection.

[devtools] _orig_cnx does not exist any more (missing change)

[c-c schema] option to show single etype (closes #3404831)

[multi-sources-removal] Drop entities.source column Since we remove federated multi-sources support, the same value ('system') is always stored in this column and so could be removed. Also, cleanup repository caches and a few api where the very same useless information could be removed. Closes #2919300, at last [jcr: restore sanity check of etype against schema in checkintegrity.has_eid]

[repo] pylint cleanup, mainly of imports, with a bit of style

[multi-sources-removal] Drop no more used federated ('true') multi-sources related code Related to #2919300 (almost done!)

[multi-sources-removal] Turn ConnectionsSet into simpler ConnectionWrapper also, SqliteConnectionWrapper becomes a subclass. This is allowed since now ConnectionsSet responsability has been reduced to handling the system source only. This changeset also: * drops useless cnxset_set / check_connection api * deprecates former .source / .connection / container api but it renames neither the session's cnxset attribute, nor the related repository method. Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] Drop cnxset_freed from source interface Though a hack is still needed when using sqlite Related to #2919300

[cnxset] add backwards compat for cnxset.source_cnxs It's used at least in a vcsfile migration script.

[multi-sources-removal] Simplify ConnectionsSet internal structures and public methods since it now handles a connection to the system source only Related to #2919300 [jcr: adjust 3.17.11 migration, fix a number of bugs in new ConnectionsSet implementation, fix source.{open,close}_source_connections]

[ldap] simplify connection handling since we deleted ldapuser source, we don't need anymore the get_connection and ConnectionWrapper stuff (that was used to put the ldap connection into the cnxset). Also, we should simply let connection errors propagate so this is properly reported to import logs.

[ldap] merge cw.server.ldaputils back into ldapfeed source we don't need separated modules since ldapuser source has been removed

[config] cleanup/refactor server sources file values handling * kill former `sources` method, misnamed since we've only the system source configuration in the sources file (and some default admin account information) * introduce new system_source_config and default_admin_config properties to access to the two information in this file Then use one or the other when appropriate

[repoapi] drop get_option_value's foreid argument repoapi was introduced in 3.19, so no need to introduce legacy deprecated stuff at the same time.

[multi-sources-removal] Drop foreid argument of repo.get_option_value It doesn't need it anymore. Related to #2919300

[c-c restore] drop useless restore-all option, and related systemonly argument

[multi-sources-removal] Kill repo.sources there is only the system source in there now! Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] Drop no more necessary scleanup (source cleanup) argument Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] drop source location search on glob_*[entity|relation] methods source is now always the system source Related to #2919300 [jcr: fix wrong rebase in symmetric relation removal]

[server test] simplify data-schemaserial test instance's schema

[multi-sources-removal] Drop (dont_)cross relation related code That was only needed for now deleted 'true' multisources. Related to #2919300 [jcr: also remove it from server/test/data-schemaserial/schema.py]

[multi-sources-removal] Simplify repo.delete_info_multi arguments, uri is no more used Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] Drop deleted_entities system table and entities.mtime column since they were only used by the entities_modified_since api of the repository which has been dropped. Along with them, the multi-sources-etypes configuration variable and some sql queries at modification/deletion time of entities. Bon vent ! Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] drop repository entities_modified_since public api actually only used by pyrorql/zmqrql sources which have been dropped. This will allow to drop a bunch of system meta-data (eg deleted_entities) Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] Drop the "true" multi-sources planner Only keep copy-based sources. This will soon allow for greater code simplification. Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] Drop cw.server.sources.extlite no more used for a while, beside an utility class Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] Move cw.server.sources.ConnectionWrapper where it belongs It's only used by the ldap utilities. Related to #2919300

[multi-sources-removal] Drop pyrorql and zmqrql sources After a few years experementing "true" multi-sources, we're now moving to "copy-based" source à la datafeed. As pyro and zmq sources have no more known customers and the related code is in the way of future refactoring of cubicweb's core, we decided to drop support for those sources without backward compatibility. If you're still using a zmqrql or pyrorql source and you want to upgrade, ask support to move it to datafeed using a pre-3.19 version first. Related to #2919300 (first step)

[web/formfields] Make CompoundField inherit needs_multipart from its subfields If there's a FileField within a CompoundField, the latter will not have the enctype multipart set, even though the FileField needs it. CompoundField should inspect its children fields to determine whether it needs multipart. Closes #3406930.

[wsgi/handler] fix api change from 3.18

[req] deprecate get_cache (closes #3181499)

Added tag cubicweb-version-3.18.2, cubicweb-debian-version-3.18.2-1, cubicweb-centos-version-3.18.2-1 for changeset 6880674c1a26

merge 3.17.12 into 3.18 branch

[editcontroller] fix cardinality computation (closes #3120495)

[debian] move yams max version to Depends And fix a syntax error and wrong package name in the process.

[pkg] prepare 3.17.12

[web] Fix typo in docstring

[test] remove custom implementation of FakeRequest.header_accept_language() (closes #3375021) ``Accept-Language`` should be overridable just as any other request header. Default value is "nothing" since the application should be able the empty header case.

[adapters] fix a name stomping error (entity) Also give proper name to subject (role, not target), and kill unused variable.

[entities] unconditionnally sanitize the html output of printable_value Closes jpl##49466

[doc] Update the debian stable name to wheezy

[i18n] Fix two typos

fix deprecation info

[web error] exception may not have a 'status' attribute, generating an AttributeError that hides the original error. Closes #3381670

[test api] extract a context manager to temporarily disable app.error_handler monkey patch

[views/workflow/tmppng] fix console crash on nth call to this one-shot view The underlying design issue is not addressed here, only a cosmetic and "we understand and document what's happening" note. Related to #3400448.

[dataimport] The subjtype should be the subject of a relation, not the object, closes #3365113

[testlib] Fix assertMessageEqual assertEqual(msg, msg) had a hard time failing.

[doc] Pass field to value callback in FieldsForm example This avoids a deprecation warning when following the documentation.

[pkg] prepare 3.18.2

[migractions] Don't silently ignore errors when installing sql procedures If we're going to ignore errors, at least be loud about it. sqlexec already wraps the sql execution in a try/except block, so we were never going to catch any exceptions in the caller. Check the return value instead. Closes #3459618.

[schema] execute the new stored procs/funcs at migration time (closes #3450368)

[schema/stored procs] fix syntax error (closes #3450362)

Added tag cubicweb-version-3.18.1, cubicweb-debian-version-3.18.1-1, cubicweb-centos-version-3.18.1-1 for changeset 60322cb8636c

[web/data] Update fullcalendar to version 1.6.4 Fixes compat with jquery 1.10 (closes #3445689)

[debian] declare breaks on cubicweb-invoice (closes #3444985) It tries to access a 'state' attribute on an entity without going through the IWorkflowable adapter.

[hooks/security] silence yams warning (closes #3440707) If the rdef is not final, yams will complain.

[migration/3.18] recover from bad CWSource.in_synchronization default value The addition of this attribute in 3.13.8 had default=False, which made no sense, and was fixed in 3.13.9. However no migration was done so apps that ever saw the 3.13.8 code could still have '' as defaultval for this attribute.

[pkg] prepare 3.18.1

[security] Add comment to check_entity_attributes shortcut Make it clear that it is only an optimization. Related to #3444095.

Disable security hooks for internal sessions Fixes semantic change introduced in 96dba2efd16d where internal sessions started to check attribute permissions. Closes #3444095

[migration/3.18] Explicitly delete constraint on defaultval Make sure the SizeConstraint on defaultval is removed, and avoid more unnecessary commits.

[migration/3.18] Idempotency fixes Try to make partially-upgraded instances migrate properly.

[migration/3.18] Fix NameError

[migration/3.18] Add add_permission relation definitions earlier Otherwise sync_schema_props_perms('defaultval') does not work because the later relation is not in schema.

[migration/3.18] Only commit when we did something Avoids countless confirmation prompts. Closes #3438804.

[doc/3.19] fix (mostly) grammar

fix version number: we still target cw 3.19

Fix a couple merge errors

merge 3.18.0 in 3.19 branch

Added tag cubicweb-version-3.18.0, cubicweb-debian-version-3.18.0-1, cubicweb-centos-version-3.18.0-1 for changeset db37bf35a147

[book] drop reference to removed cubicweb.predicates.implements

3.18.0

[i18n] update French and English translations

i18n update

merge stable

[hooks/security] provide attribute "add" permission As of today, the update permission on attributes is checked at entity *creation* time. This forbids using update permissions the proper way. We set it to be checked at entity update time only. We introduce a specific 'add' permission rule for attributes. For backward compatibility, its default value will be the same as the current 'update' permission. Notes: * needs a new yams version (ticket #149216) * introduces two new 'add_permissions' rdefs (attribute - group|rqlexpr) * if the update permission was () and the bw compat kicks in, the rule is not enforced, to avoid un-creatable entity types -- this restriction will be lifted when the bw compat is gone * small internal refactoring on check_entity_attributes * one small pre 3.6.1 bw compat snippet must be removed from schemaserial Closes #2965518.

[server/test] reorganize data/migratedapp/schema.py to allow comparison with data/schema.py Pure reorganization to make it possible to visually compare both schemas.

[schema] move definition of RQLExpression classes before default permission dicts

[server] remove old backwards compat for PropagateSubjectRelation*Hook Those classes were removed from server/hook.py.

[book] replace PropagateSubjectRelation*Hook references PropagateSubjectRelationHook, PropagateSubjectRelationAddHook and PropagateSubjectRelationDelHook were deprecated by PropagateRelationHook, PropagateRelationAddHook, PropagateRelationDelHook respectively in v3.9, and removed in 3.18. Closes #3420672

[doc] update 3.18 release notes

[pkg] bump logilab-common requirement Necessary since 4b3e657d17ab "[source configuration] silent lgc 0.60 deprecation warning"

update jquery to 1.10 (closes #2786674) Includes: * base jquery * jquery.migrate to help for the transition * jquery.ui The jquery.ui.tabs api has slightly changed hance the change in web/views/tabs. The autocompletion widget is slightly adapted to follow an API change and now extends the base functionality in a simpler way.

[notification] Use https url when available in notification view context Closes #3376252.

[req] Return base-url in case https-url is None in base_url() Closes #3376322.

[server/session] fix typo in keep_cnxset_mode docstring

[breadcrumbs] Small breadcrumb components refactoring * use `open_breadcrumbs` and `close_breadcrumbs` methods where applicable in the BreadCrumbEntityVComponent hierarchy * include the first separator related code in `open_breadcrumbs` to avoid code duplication Closes #3223911.

[views/dot] use an inlined svg for schema and workflow graphs These are currently served as "temporary" pngs which are actually consummed immediately. Which means they cannot be requested twice and any further attempt will yield an error in the logs and some end-user surprise. There is no known acceptable workaround for IE-8 (and previous versions). SVGWEB could be workable but it's not trivial to integrate it properly. Closes #3400448.

[release notes] Documents one() and find() addition

[js] noop is undefined in plain javascript (related to #2786674)

[css] drop shadow.gif & use a couple of rules (closes #3381435)

[css] replace old rounded corners hack by css rules Closes #3381426.

[views/templates] provide a modal main template (closes #3274672) The current NonTemplatableViewTemplate may seem to provide the desired feature if a '__notemplate' is provided in the form, unfortunately, it: * wraps the view in a spurious div * calls view.set_stream(), which has the effect of wiping any js/css resource recorded until then by the view, leading to hard-to-track missing resources symptoms

[js/widgets] fix the InOut widget with modern jQuery versions Several things are done there: * reduction in size and complexity of the code * the unused defaultsettings are removed * the initial `unlinked` list is now correctly populated from python-side * the unit test is adjusted because it tested an irrelevant implementation detail which is no longer true (but the widget of course still handles correctly the linkto information) Tested with ie7, ie9, chromium, firefox. Tested with jQuery 1.6 (cw 3.17.x) and 1.10. Closes #3154531.

[autoform] Allow overridding of permissions checks Closes #3063930

[schema] fix unique together index handling We now provide a more compact indexname, using the schema constraint entity type and the position of the columns set in the entity type unique constraints list. This avoids a nasty name truncation issue. The UniqueTogetherError object is made smarter: it computes the rtypes, abstracting the underlying backend (pg/sqlserver vs sqlite). The `user friendly` adapter is much simplified since there is no longer any truncation issue. Uses a new logilab.database version (ticket #151507) and a new yams version (ticket #189299) Closes #2514939 [jcr: disable hooks when temporarily dropping CWUniqueTogetherConstraint entities]

[pyrorql] deprecate pyrorql source (closes #2919299)

[web/facet] do NOT drop offset/limit of the base rql (closes #3344579)

[webctl] Generate static data directory on upgrade (closes #2167873) - if the folder already exists, ``upgrade`` asks for deletion, - add an option (``generate-staticdir``) to allow skipping this task. - add an option (``staticdir-path``) to specify the static data folder path. The ``gen-static-datadir`` command allows to specify the target folder but there is otherwise no way to retrieve this information during upgrade.

[cwctl] Don't check for old lgc versions Support for check_duplicated_command in CommandLine was added in 2011 for 0.55, and we already depend on 0.59.0.

[migration/3.18] add sanity checks before changing symmetric relations Delete supposedly impossible relations from the db. Related to #3259713.

[migration/3.18] disable all hooks when setting up symmetric relations This operation is semantically a no-op, so it should be invisible for the application. Related to #3259713.

[devtools] bases for instrumenting / debugging standard propagation hooks * a class that helps writing command to check propagation, detecting standard errors and picture the propagation as a graph * a class to instrument sets used to configure standard propagation hooks closes #3171980

instrument cwvreg, so we may know what's being loaded by asking the registry store

set proper PACKAGE information for yams 0.39 Yams 0.39 adds an unobstrusive API to get the package, or cube, defining a part of the schema (entity type, relation type/def). As CubicWeb overrides part of the schema reading process, we have to handle this information on our side so it will be properly set.

[yams] follow yams 0.39 api change introduced by ad95fd2c46de (package attribute on etype/rtype/rdef)

Make the GROUP_CONCAT aggregate function not repeat values (closes #3223975) Work on sets instead of arrays, so if the same value appears twice it's not repeated in the concatenated output. This patch handles the postgresql and sqlite backends, mysql is left alone at this point (seems doable, but I don't have time or motivation to fix and test it).

[mail] allow to specify SMTP's MAIL FROM address to config.sendmails(). Closes #3373620 Also modify testlib.Email so we don't loose this information and may test it.

[mail] format_mail copy/paste fix: we want to test sender-name, not sender-addr

symmetric relations: replace bogus rql2sql translation by a hook The hook ensures X r Y => Y r X iff r is symmetric. The rql-no-hook data importer receives a small amendment but note that: * there exist no test for it * its actual semantics are undefined Hence we cannot prove this hunk breaks nothing, because we cannot prove anything. Closes #3259713.

[migration] fix handling of default value for boolean attributes We can't assert that the old value is 'True' or 'False', because False used to be stored as an empty string in pre-3.18 versions.

[entity/url publishing] fetch_rqlst should use 'is_instance_of' instead of 'is' We usually want to get any subclasses as well (think Training subclass of Workcase). Closes #3210365.

[rewriter] fix latent bug: arbitrary etype may be substituted when using is_instance_of type restriction Note: the test is not deterministic because the bug depends on the iteration order on a set.

[test] drop no more used test data file

[doc] Refer to RsetTableView in EntityTableView docstring instead of TableView

Fix use of vreg.config.anonymous_user() If no anonymous user is declared, anonymous_user() returns 'None, None', not 'None'.

[server] avoid race-condition in timer events With a granularity of one second, there's a good chance calling localtime twice will return the same value. We should consider the event ready immediately if that happens, not wait one second.

[server/pyro] try to shutdown the repository properly If RepositoryServer.trigger_events is not called we might miss a QuitEvent and thus never shutdown the repository and its looping tasks.

[book] remove broken links to web.views.wdoc.ChangeLog{View,Action} ChangeLogView and ChangeLogAction were removed in 3.16.0 (changeset fa044b9157d7, https://www.cubicweb.org/2423532) Closes #3369687

[book] fix Session.{set,free}_cnxset autodoc They're Session methods, not bare functions. Without this building the docs says: reading sources...

cwetype is a *class* property, rename its argument accordingly

typo

[req] New method: RequestSessionBase.find(). This method does what find_entities and find_one_entity did, except it returns the resultset itself. In addition, it accepts 'reverse_' arguments and check that the relations actually exists on the entity before executing the query. Also, reimplement find_one_entity and find_entity based on the new function so they benefit from the more complete implementation, and deprecate them. Note: List of values in kwargs are NOT supported in this initial implementation. Closes #3361290

[rset] New method: ResultSet.one() This method will return exactly one entity while enforcing its existence and unicity. The idea is shamelessly borowed from SQLAlchemy Query.one(). Closes #3352314 [jcr: use len(self) instead of len(self.rows)]

Added tag cubicweb-debian-version-3.17.11-2 for changeset b02e2912cad5

[predicates] allow multiple transition names in on_fire_transition (closes #3013720) Also add a warning about the unimplemented from_state_name argument.

[css] add the entypo font as available ressource (closes #2930356) This provides a standard set of pictograms for use in CubicWeb and cubes. To use a pictogram, the "cubicweb.pictograms.css" must be explicitly loaded (using, e.g. view.add_css(...)).

[skeleton i18n] Add PO-Revision-Date header to make emacs po-mode happy Closes #3276389

[uicfg] give a set_fields_order method to the primary view display control Hence it is nicely symmetrical with the fields kwargs. Closes #2741963.

prepare 3.17.11

[devtools] write db config through a temporary file Avoids other test processes reading partially written config and exploding in pickle.loads. There are still concurrency issues, presumably with the database itself. Something for another friday.

[server] Add missing indices for undo support (closes #3259691) The tables used by the 'undo' feature were missing some indices, which among other things triggered repeated sequential scans when deleting old transactions.

[sqlutils] fix sqlite group_concat harder (related to #3331906)

[sqlutils] avoid a crash with sqlite when using group_concat (closes #3331906)

[server/initrepo] show failed sql statements and abort if necessary (closes #3308564)

[tableview] Don't share column renderers between all instances of a table (closes #3351872)

[tableview] Add some unique element to AbstractColumnRenderer.__str__ (related to #3351872) Otherwise different instances look the same which is confusing.

add failing test case related to #3013554

[web] make sign_text unicode aware, avoid crash with non-ascii chars. Closes #3289774

[doc] Use string debug mode in debugged docstring

[rql2sql] fix relation table scope when some variable from subquery is used. Closes #3252270 While it feels weird to drop this explicit ColumnAlias handling, hg history has no clue on its introduction (prior to rev 0) and no older test case fails without it, so let's drop it.

[cwctl] backout 5d5b3a865eb1, which breaks interactive shell usage

[ReST] Implement a rql-table reST directive. Closes #3252856 allowing to call table or derivated view specify headers / cellvids. Also, rql may be split accross several lines which greatly improve readability.

[server] drop support for antediluvian lgdb versions That API was changed in 2010, before logilab-database was moved out of logilab-common.

Added tag cubicweb-centos-version-3.17.10-1, cubicweb-version-3.17.10, cubicweb-debian-version-3.17.10-1 for changeset fe0e1863a137

[pkg] prepare 3.17.10

[web] don't rename resources in gen-static-datadir We should use the result from WebConfiguration.locate_resource to know which file to copy, not what name to copy it to. The destination file should be the name of the resource, as the client will request it. This matters in the case of cubicweb.css which locate_resource might rewrite to cubicweb.old.css. Closes #3206129

[notification] avoid leaking cnxsets (closes #3243810) When sending notifications, we get each recipient as either an email address or a CWUser. In the latter case, we create a temporary session for that user and use it to send the mail. However, if we later decided to not send the mail after all, we'd leak the session and its cnxset. Add a try block inside the loop to make sure the temporary sessions are closed properly.

[book] English fix

[serverctl] complete the schema-diff command with options that will fix & enhance it. Notably: - filter out eids (doesn't make sense for the filesystem schema) - handle permissions, trying to detect the default ones Needs yams #174042. Closes #2996547.

[server] deprecate the old multi-source system It is removed in 3.19. Closes #2919299

[doc] document changed attribute default value storage

defaultval migration for sqlite

[schema] store default attribute values in a Bytes field, allowing python objects as default values Notes: * Binary objects grow two methods * we depend on a newer yams version * the code is quite simplified as a result of the whole change * a very old and nasty bug where bool(default values) evaluating to False not being properly migrated is killed Closes #2414591.

[source/native] fix sqlserver pattern matcher for unique constraints (closes #3227593) The matcher is used to parse the low-level error message and extract meaningful information for the end users. If broken, the users see an alarming and bewildering message. A full & definitive fix is scheduled for CubicWeb 3.18.

[dbapi] Fix broken inmemory:// URLs parsing (closes #3225832) ParseResult.path is what comes after the "domain name" in standard URLs. So in the case of 'inmemory://<instance' URLs, it is always empty. ParseResult.netloc contains the "domain name" part that we really want.

[metadata hook] rename an operation for the sake of readability

[book] Typo fix and rephrasing in devrepo/migration

[cwshell] rename history file to .cwshell_history (erudi is dead, long live cw)

[entity] Entity.related(): add a targettypes argument (closes #2957313) This allows to restrict the entity types returned by the method (passed to cw_related_rql). When such an argument is given, no caching happens.

[source configuration] silent lgc 0.60 deprecation warning

[querier/security] instrument a bit the querier read security checks Related to #2920304

[book] Improve PostgreSQL configuration section * Do not advice for specific PostgreSQL version (point to meta-packages if available in Linux distros); * First mention packages from Linux distros, put the link to official postgres documentation at the end; Closes #2725302.

[js] add a selector string escaping function will help use id strings in jquery selector expressions, e.g: "foo.[subject]:42" -> "foo\.\[subject\]\:42" Related to #3154531.

[merge] backport stable fixes

[test/ldapsource] backout 192a748550c7 which broke RQL2LDAPFilterTC

[rset] make sure rset.description is always a list It's more consistent, and avoids pylint warning "Instance of 'tuple' has no 'append' member"

[schema] edit syntax tree instead of playing with strings for RQLExpressions Lets us support more complex expressions involving e.g. "HAVING" clauses. Closes #3202855
