Some py3k related fixes: use text_type instead of unicode

[cwctl] Kill deprecated ordered_instances method no need to keep bw compat for this.

[test/cleanup] Use plain unittest

[test/cleanup] flake8 unittest_rqlannotation.py

[debian] logilab >= 1.2.2 in requires (only in build depends) Related to #16404515.

[debian] move unittest2 to requires not recommends closes #16404515

[devtools] named context for boxes subTest for consistency

Added tag 3.24.3, debian/3.24.3-1, centos/3.24.3-1 for changeset bb5904cd284e

[pkg] 3.24.3

[cwconfig] ensure CubicWebNoAppConfiguration returns a typed value (closes #16364459)

[views/optimization] Makes has_editable_relations predicate less costly by using generator The `has_editable_relations` predicate is used to say if the 'modify' action should appear. To do so, it checks if anything is editable (ie. something in the attributes, relations or inlined section of the automatic form). This may be costly since it may have to check several permissions. To optimize this a bit, this cset turns list into generator so that we'll avoid unnecessary work as soon as we find a match.

[cwconfig] Trim down allowed exceptions in gettext language setting I can't see any valid reason to pass on ImportError and AttributeError. In particular, the latter shadowed a Python 3 error until 4f43e64603ef.

[pkg] Configure "universal" wheel build According to https://packaging.python.org/distributing/#wheels, we should create universal wheels (no 2to3 step, no C extension). Configure this in setup.cfg. [ci skip]

[rqlrewrite] Test and fix potential NameError We were referencing a loop variable, which may lead to a name error and show a potential error if there are several matching variables. To avoid this, introduce a list to hold every encountered variable and process all of them later.

flake8 uicfg

[uicfg] Remove unpredictability from autoform_section initialization It was attempting to guess smart default values by looking at the opposite relation (neg_role), but depending on the (random) ordering of the schema, it may or may not have been set yet, leading to unpredictable result with varying hash seed. Remove those fuzzy lookup all at once, it may change some (unreliable) things in your app but at least it's still a bit easier to explain. Closes #16272968

[schema/optimization] Wrap rql expressions into EXISTS node when checking individual permissions Some RQL expression may retrieve several results. It makes sense to wrap them into an EXISTS node to optimized things a bit. This is already done by security insertion of 'read' rql expressions.

[views/optimization] Prefetch state'names and comment format in wfhistory component This will avoid later queries to retrieve them.

[devtools] Make timeout error in qunit tests configurable and use SkipTest in test_jscript.py The reason is that the latter tests quite often fail in our CI environment, possibly due to concurrent execution of the browser, and this makes it hard to identify a truly failing build there. So skip tests with a timeout error.

[debian] update changelog's time tag

[pyramid] Drop reference to pyramid_cubicweb in ctl command docstring [ci skip]

[debian] Rework split of cubicweb-ctl package It does not appear simple to have the .install files work. So just copy cubicweb-ctl script in DESDIR of cubicweb-ctl binary package and remove .install files. Related to #16133259.

[skeleton] Rephrase long description of Debian package into something meaningful [ci skip]

[skeleton] Depends on python-cubicweb in debian packaging [ci skip]

[debian] Have a single python-cubicweb binary for the library But keep distinct meta-packages for dependencies of the HTTP server (Twisted/Pyramid) and database backend. Related to #16133259.

[debian] Update debian packaging (closes #16133259) - use dh_python, pybuild and debhelper>=9, - refactor and simplify the debian/rules, - rename binary packages (but cubicweb-ctl) to python-xxx - remove daemon handling stuff (initscripts...) from cubicweb-ctl (one should now use a standard WSGI delivery method),

[pkg] Version 3.24.1

[tox] Use `python -m check_manifest` instead of check-manifest program To make sure we use Python from tox's virtualenv.

add debian buildpackage-generated files to hgignore

[test] Fix language negotiation test At least when executed alone (there seems to be a test isolation problem which I could not figure out).

[pyramid] No more need for an internal connection when user is cached

[web] req.lang should be None or a non-empty string

[web] Simplify a bit language handling Drop `set_default_language` and `set_user_language` by considering that: * before being bound to the user, request will have the site's default language * cnx has the user's preferred language, hence get it back to the request when it's bound to a connection The first point requires some change to cubicweb's vreg faking so it doesn't break. That should be enough.

Fix AttributeError for "lang" on repo/client connections This is a regression introduced by b48020a80dc3, which removed call to set_language from the `req._set_user` method. This is fine, but we still want a language on connections, so we've to handle it if necesary in Connection.__enter__ (i.e. once connection is properly open). When using pyramid front-end, which has a users cache, we've to cache its language as well because we must not access its preferred_language method since it's not bound to a proper connection.

Alias ugettext to gettext method of cwGNUTranslations in Python 3 The former does not exist in Python 3, but we rely on it. This fixes test_login_bad_password in cubicweb/pyramid/test/test_login.py which has never passed since being introduced in 6392f34fcdad.

[devctl] make i18n custom message extractors work with legacy layouts distname needs to be "cubicweb_<cubename>", even with legacy layouts for pkg.load_entry_point() to work closes #16272177

Fix (new) flake8 errors They showed up on upgrade of flake8/pep8.

[pyramid] Try "eid" first when retrieving a subresource of ETypeResource So that Pyramid traversal works as existing CubicWeb URL publishing.

Fix AttributeError on postcommit when db-create adds non-system CWSource entities In this case, `Repository.add_source` is called from an operation, not from `Repository.init_sources_from_database`, thus the attribute `sources_by_eid` does not exist. Closes #16251078.

[devctl] Optimize cleanup_sys_modules a bit by moving out of a loop a costly computation that is constant. This at least benefits the `i18ncube` command. Related to #15789486.

[pyramid] Install file listing monitored files in application home Instead of using a temporary file, that never gets deleted. Closes #16159807.

[pyramid] Fix login error message language Use http negotiation unless language is explicitly set for the site. Closes #16236485.

i18n update Pyramid-related messages were not translated. Closes #16236243.

[pyramid] Add action verb used in some messages displayed by the command For instance we'll see 'instance started' instead of 'instance None', which is nicer.

[pyramid] No more need to check CW version since it's now shipped with it

[pyramid] Fix 404 handling Avoid seeing a traceback in the UI by catching it before it reaches pyramid and restore usage of the '404' view. Closes #16159863

Fix broken flake8 configuration and flake8 errors which were hidden by this breakage. flake8 --filename options doesn't work as expected: * it's expected to be a shell pattern, using stdlib's fnmatch.fnmatch function internally. This funciton thinks that 'cubicweb/x.py' doesn't match 'cubicweb/x.py' (there must be a reason but that's not the point), hence no file was actually checked ; * as this is a list of pattern, each encountered file is checked against each pattern, leading to run time explosion. So maintain list of files to check in a separated file and give this list to flake8 using unix's xarg command.

[entities] Fix typo in wfobjs debug message

[doc] Add my 3.24 release notes

[migration] Drop cw_schema relation first without this, we ends up with the traceback shown at https://www.cubicweb.org/ticket/16130960. This is not the proper fix, which I have not been able to find. It seems due to this very rare case of deletion of such relation linked to CWRType vs order of execution of operation (in this case, the operation deleting the entity table is run before some other queries using it). As forcing this relation to be deleted before the entity type fixes the problem while this case seems rare enough, IMO this patch is "good enough". Closes #16130960

[hooks] Delete some properties cached on entities schema on schema updates cubicweb.schema add two additional @cachedproperty that should be cleared when in-memory schema is modified. This may leads to e.g. attempt to delete some already dropped relations. Related to #16130960

[doc] Add some words in changelog about pyramid support in core + fix its title Closes #16121152.

[pkg] Fix extra packages not installable For instance `pip install -e ".[pyramid]"` should install the pyramid dependencies. A typo caused all these extra packages to not be found by pip. Closes #16121322.

Added tag 3.24.0, centos/3.24.0-1 for changeset 9f7949b63ab2

[views] simplify and fix the TreeView (closes #16055814) Simplify the (internal) TreeView._init_params() method to get rid of the useless 'initial_thru_ajax' argument. The ajax tree view was not working properly when loaded via ajax, for instance from a lazy tab. This was due to the buggy protection against double javascript/ css inclusion, which is no more needed server-side as it is now implemented client-side. Deprecate use of the initial_thru_ajax argument of the TreeView.call() method.

[massive store] remove unused code

Drop a cw 3.24 warning

Fix unexpected req.relative_path() when calling CWTC.app_handle_request with path argument The _deprecated_path_arg decorator can not be used in this case, since it won't ensure backward compat if path value has been specified and is not similar as req's path (which is generally the case). This problem has been introduced by 904ee9cd0cf9.

[req,web/request] Move language prefix handling into web request This changes part of d8830e2bd2e0 by unsetting "lang" attribute of RequestSessionBase in particular (because it appears to break many downstream applications). The new implementation relies on a new "build_url_path" method on RequestSessionBase that is overridden in _CubicWebRequestBase to handle the language prefix in URL. As a consequence build_url in RequestSessionBase is not aware of this prefix anymore (contrary previous implementation from d8830e2bd2e0). Move respected tests from unittest_req.py into unittest_request.py. Commenting out part of test_handle_request_no_lang_negotiation_fixed_language in unittest_application.py because it now fails because of some obscure bug that cannot be resolved at the moment. Related to #15743487.

[test] Use stdlib unittest instead of lgc.testlib in unittest_request.py

[test] Distinguish "request" tests from accept parser ones in unittest_request.py

[pkg] Add setuptools to RPM build requirements

[pkg] Version 3.24.0

[req,web] Make it possible to handle page language from URL prefix Adding a short language prefix to URL (like "/en" or "/fr") changes the language the pages are displayed in. This prefix is kept during navigation. This way it is not necessary to do language negotiation, nor to use user preferences to determine which language to apply. This behavior is controlled through a new configuration option "language-mode", which replaces "language-negociation" option and which values may be "http-negotiation", "url-prefix" or "" (to disable language setting and force using "ui.language" property). Migration from previous option is not handled because I could not manage to have it working (users will get prompted with the configuration file diff anyways). Add some tests checking various scenarios. Closes #15743487

[config] fix the load_site_cubicweb() method for to 'new-style' cubes (closes #16059402) We first try to load the site_cubicweb module from the cubicweb_<cube> package, and if it fails, revert back to old cube path.

[massive store] remove on_commit / on_rollback parameters No actual use of this was found in client code. If one wants to control this behaviour, he can always override the commit method and add a try / except around flush_entities in its own store

[massive store] master_init should commit by default Default client usage is to create a master store to control slave ones. They need to access cwmassive_initialized from another transaction

[massive store] isolate SQL statements that one may want to customize i.e. provide public methods for meta data insertions

[massive store] Store entities in temporary table as well * on some entity type is encountered by a slave, create a dedicated table for insertion of entities of this type by this slave, similarly to what is done for relation - this should lower changes of conflicts in master/slaves mode ; * delay drop of constraints and indexes to `finish` method, where copy from temporary tables to regular table is done ; * insertion of metadata is done by scanning temporary tables, which may be way shorter than theier associated regular table ; * drop drop_metadata_constraints with its constraint_dropped friend attribute, there are no more necessary since this is done once in the `finish`. Related to #15538303

[massive store] Drop useless check for empty buffer If something went wrong, an error will be raised.

[massive store] Docstring / comment cleanups

[massive store] Turn a runtime error into an assertion geting there is a bug.

[massive store] Delay metadata attributes and default values handling to flush_entities This may be done once for all there, instead of for each entity in prepare_insert_entity.

[massive store] Use a slave specific table for relation insertion in the massive store * attribute a random id to the store * add a column containing this id in the cwmassive_initialized table * separate generic `master_init` which create the cwmassive_initialized table from rtype specific initialization which must be done in each slave now * delay removal of table indexes to `finish` * get back relations from each table on `finish` Similar work still has to be done for entities insertion - which will allow more cleanup to the constraints handling which is still rough for now. Related to #15538303

[massive store] docstring and __init__ cleanup

[massive store] Drop dead code This function is never used

[massive store] Reintroduce methods that are necessary to properly handle master/slave configuration Related to #15538303

[massive store] Follow configuration of the metadata generator Don't drop constraints and indexes for tables that are ignored by the metadata generator given to the store. One may now easily disable insertion of e.g. created_by / owned_by by removing them from the MetadataGenerator.META_RELATIONS set, in which case indexes for associated table won't be removed by the massive store.

[dataimport] make MetadataGenerator.META_RELATIONS customizable This should be done on the instance rather than on the class

[massive store] Rework constraint/index handling The basic idea is to keep the primary constraint on entities.eid since it's heavily used in metadata insertions. Other option would have been to drop / recreate but its very costly on big database, and the index is used for insertion into the entities table itself, so it's not worth droping it at a first glance. Also, keeping it avoids to systematically drop all constraints which depends on it. We may thus now lazily drop constraints, only on insertion of some etype/rtype for the related table. Related to #15538359

[massive store] Lazy removal of constraints and metadata indexes They should not be removed during store's init, because we may want to query the database with its index between store creation and call to prepare_insert* (e.g. to build the extid2eid map). Along the way: * rename drop_metadata_constraints into drop_metadata_indexes, because that's what it does * rework a bit impacted tests Closes #15538359

[repository] Drop the index on entities.type It should be now only used in maintenance queries in checkintegrity. Those are not worth maintaining it. Closes #15538317

[source] Drop source mapping handling It was only used by the cwxmlparser which has been deleted. This is too complex for litle benefit, we don't want to maintain that in cubicweb.

[repository] Drop the entities.extid column and associated cache This was not necessary anymore with promoted usage of the new data import API. Turn repository's _type_extid_cache to _type_cache with only the entity's type as key. This introduces an backward incompatible change: entity_metas dict doesn't contains anymore the extid key, but it doesn't seem used at all anywhere, so this sounds acceptable. Closes #15538317

[repository] Drop the entities.asource column It not used anymore thanks to previous patches. Closes #15538288

[integrity check] Stop using entities.asource column in integrity checks Simply check if entities have a cw_source, and link it to the system source when not found. Related to #15538288

[rql2sql/test] Ensure test results predictability Without this, test were randomly failing within tox due to different order of solutions.

[rql2sql] Stop generating SQL query from RQL using entities.type This was necessary in the "true multi-sources" time, it's not anymore, while maintaining this index is costly. Related to #15538317

[test] Remove some usages of lgc.testlib

[test] Avoid pytest discovery warnings Having TestServerConfiguration and alike in the test module namespace causes pytest discovery errors, because it thinks it's a test class.

flake8 and all * update some copyright * drop most __docformat__ declaration * fix some flake8 warnings / errors

[schema2sql] Drop deprecated comment

[cnx] Use entity_type instead of entity_metas()['type'] The latter is deprecated in favor of the former which has been introduced on cnx to replace it.

[entity] Reimplement and deprecate entity.cw_metainformation It shouldn't rely anymore on cnx.entity_metas which is itself deprecated, and the cw_metainformation API is similarly not needed anymore, access directly to cwuri / cw_source if needed. Related to #15538288

[repository] Drop type_and_source_from_eid and rename related cache We don't want to handle anymore the entities.asource column so we shouldn't use those anymore. Also rename repository's _type_source_cache into _type_extid_cache as this is what it's containing now. Do similar renaming to the system source API. Related to #15538288

[entity] Stop returning source information in cw_metainformation() We should not need that. It has been introduced to handle things we should not do and probably don't do anymore (e.g. attempting to grasp recursive import of several sites). Related to #15538288.

[json] Stop serializing cw_source into default json representation of an entity Related to #15538288

Drop deprecated LDAP related script both are relying on the 'entities.source' column which has been dropped in 3.19. They have been written with the old ldapsource in mind, which has been dropped at that time.

[entity] Stop linking to external site for external entities This behaviour was ok when we had "true" multi-sources but its rather painful with datafeed sources. Also, it makes absolute_url() costlier than what it should. Besides, it relies on cw_metainformation()['source'] that is pending for removal. Instead, add a link to the original object in the metadata view (the one that displays eid and source at the bottom right corner of the primary view). Related to #15538288.

[datafeed] Drop entity deletion handling in the default source / parser This should be handled by specific parser to avoid using "entities.asource". Reimplement it in the ldap parser. Related to #15538288

[sources] Drop 'moved_entities' table handling This was clumsy and could be handled using exturi / cwsource, as the ldap source now does.
