merge 3.16 fix in default

[devtools] fix a couple issues with xvfb-run xvfb-run didn't quite clean up correctly after itself, because: - dash doesn't run EXIT traps on signals - if we don't run the command in the background, a TERM handler doesn't run until the command exits

[devtools/qunit] don't open-code subprocess.Popen.terminate

[devtools/qunit] get rid of unused variable

[server] *init_repository* lookup the database instead of the schema to drop tables (closes #810743) So, tables are dropped even if the schema was changed. :note: if mssql, drop views before tables. :note: because of table dependencies we try a second drop sequence

[book] remove XXX to an old discussion about appengine

[web publish] in case of error, ensure proper http status is set and Content-disposition header is reseted. Closes #2553066

Add CubicWebRequestBase.content (closes #2742453) This is the body of the HTTP request (stream)

add the match_http_method predicate (closes #2559932) This aim at creating views which are selected on other HTTP methods (PUT, DELETE, ...)

[pkg] the previous commit requires new feature in yams.

add a command to compare db schema and file system schema (closes #464991)

drop typed_eid() in favour of int() (closes #2742462) typed_eid was introduced to abstract the eid type when running on Google AppEngine. It is not used anymore and can be removed. Let's use int() instead.

merge with stable

3.15 is the new old stable

[web] don't link to None in author box (when author has been deleted) (closes #2409855)

dbapi: try to restore compatibility of the connect api with 3.15 A few issues here: - urlparse('foo').scheme is '', not None - cnxprops is an optional argument Regression from 62213a34726e ("[db-api/configuration] simplify db-api and configuration so that all the connection information is in the repository url, closes #2521848") Closes #2754322

3.16 is the new stable After discussion with David Douard I'm merging 3.16.x branches in stable and starting 3.17 feature on default.

[views/primary] some inner sections should use the `limit` by default to avoid a denial of service (closes #2719110) Today, it is possible to call .related and get a huge unlimited database-dos-inducing resultset that will be nevertheless limited a bit further in pure python in the `autolimited` view. While we cannot completely avoid potential denial of services such as these we mitigate the problem with the default ui settings: if the inner vid is `autolimited`, then the relation result sets is computed using the user-defined limit. This change respects the semantics of the `autolimited` view and shouldn't break anything.

[entity] ensure the .related(entities=False) parameter is honored all the way down (closes #2755994) As of today, such a call will always fill the relation cache by calling .entities() on every single related rset entry. As a consequence, the `limit` parameter handling also had to be fixed. It was bogus in the following ways: * not used in the related_rql, hence potentially huge database requests, but also actually * foolishly used in the .entities()-calling cache routine we now bypass (this changeset ticket's main topic) Now: * we set a limit on the rql expression, and * forbid caching if given a non-None limit (as we don't want to make the cache handling code more complicated than it is already) With this, entity.unrelated gets a better limit implementation (so the code in related/unrelated is nice and symmetric) Risk: * _cw_relation_cache disappears completely, which is good, but this is Python, so you never know ...

[test/web] fix invisibly bogus test (prepares #2755994) The test was wrong but that was cancelled out by a cache effect and fuzzy naming. Wiping the entity caches restores sanity: the choices list are the same before and after the SET. Also field.choices uses entity.unrelated but always returns related + unrelated elements. Hence `choice` replaces `unrelated` where it makes sense. AssertIn is used in place of AssertTrue.

[cwconfig] Fix exception handling when building the cube dependency graph UnorderableGraph exceptions do not have a 'cycles' property. A simple cast to str does the job.

[merge] backport stable fixes

[test/sobject] fix test regression Was complaining: - * updated comment #EID (#EID) ? ^^^^ + * updated comment #EID (duh?) ? ^^^^ in sobjects/test/unittest_supervising.

[web/request] Prune extraneous 'pageid' from generated ajax URL parameters (closes #2758130) If 'pageid' is given through extraparams, it is sent twice to the browser. On the JS side, the final URL loadxhtml() will end up using will have 'pageid' set twice which CubicWeb will readily accept as a list. Pruning this parameter makes sure it is exactly once.

[web/component] Use global variable to point to ajax controller (part of #2758254)

[web] Use the new '/ajax' URL path to access the AjaxController (closes #2758254) 5a81fa526b30 took care of all the JS code, this patch cleans up the remaining python bits.

[devtools/httptest] fix syntax error introduced by ce5ae7b80d2c

[component] Fix URL generation for navigation component (closes #2464832)

merge with another default heads

Merge stable into default (NON-TRIVIAL) - dropping __future__ statement added by d2472948da9c - added migration from 407acc41beb5 to migration file for 3.16.1

maintain python2.5 compatibility

[schema/workflow] one more typo fix Also add proper migration.

[devtools] add http_publish to CubicWebTC (closes #2565882) Fakes a http request, without overriding the normal error handling. Returns the request object so the caller can check for errors.

[testlib] url_publish should give url to the request and the rset returned by the path evaluator to ctrl_publish. Closes #2557468 Also, url_publish now accepts a `data` argument to simulate POST of values.

[towards py3k] import reduce() from functools (part of #2711624)

merge stable fix into default

[doc] document dbapi.Connection

[c-c shell] fix command description (-P option is gone long ago)

[hooks/syncschema] do not crash when adding a new entity type (closes #2741643) The previous version assumed META_RTYPES provide relation definitions for all entity types.

[views/debug] Do not show all web sessions without CNX, just count them (closes #2602161)

[facets js] use $ instead of jQuery and other small cleanups

[devtools/httptest] allow sending other types of requests besides GET
