[cwconfig] add the CubicWebConfiguration.ensure_uid_directory() method (related to #11298794) that recursively enforce uid on files.

[cwconfig] extract uid file setting code from check_writeable_uid_directory (related to #11298794) into an ensure_uid() method

[web] Fix bug with usage of os.rename under windows environment In 7c386161ebd6 we removed cache handling from property sheet and introduced usage of a tempfile + os.rename to get atomic generation of files. The pb is that this is not portable, since under windows os.rename will raise an exception if the file already exists (because there is no way to write a file atomatically in such case). This kind of thing should be out of the CW scope anyway, so implements a quick & dirty fix in the mean time. Closes #14214794

[migration] More resilient migration script Query the information schema to retrieve existing constraint (primary key and unique) and drop them. Thus don't use anymore DROP CONSTRAINT IF EXISTS (not implemented by e.g. old versions of sqlserver). To do so a missing DISTINCT was necessary to avoid duplicates.

[session] Ensure access to rql varmaker always mark the session as dirty When one accesses the rql_varmaker, that's usually to use it. The pb was that when the varmaker was already in page's data (which is stored as session data), session storage such as redis won't see that the session data is dirty and has to be stored back at the end of the request. To fix this, systematically call set_page_data.

typo

[native] Use cnx.system_sql instead of doexec method in syntax_tree_search The latter handles connection issues and tries to reconnect. Method syntax_tree_search appears to be called from quite a few place where it seems useful to be resilient to connection issues (authentication for instance). This reconnection logic appears to have disappeared at some point when working on https://www.cubicweb.org/2919309. Could not find the exact reason though...

Remove usage of cnx.ensure_cnx_set context manager It has been deprecated since 3.21, no reason to keep using it internally.

[hooks/test/synschema] remove an unneeded skipTest. Related to #5557633.

[test] Check retcode of subprocesses in devctl tests And display decoded stdout in case of failure.

merge 3.23

[pkg] Bump version to 3.24.0.dev0

[pkg] Drop NO_SETUPTOOLS option setuptools is the defacto standard nowadays. The only place where NO_SETUPTOOLS option was used is during packaging (RPM, Debian) and even in this context, it seems that setuptools is the way to go (see https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide).

[debian] update cubicweb-dev.lintian-overrides cubicweb/skeleton/debian/rules.tmpl is now cubicweb/skeleton/debian/rules prevent lintian from complaining

[pkg] Properly export data files in setup.py and adjust "newcube" test With the new package layout (everything under "cubicweb" package), the custom install_lib rule which makes use of include_dirs defined in __pkginfo__.py did not prepend the package name to source directories to be copied. Fixing this. Also, in setup.py's export() function, the destination directories' path to be created during source tree walk was wrong. All this makes cubicweb/skeleton directory (which is not a package) properly installed by setup.py. The test in cubicweb/devtools/test/unittest_devctl.py wasn't properly implemented because it used an installation of cubicweb in "develop" mode which shadows such packaging issues. Also it used "python -m cubicweb" instead of directly "cubicweb-ctl" and the former appears to fall back to using the cubicweb package *from sources* instead of the installed one. Now that this test runs against the installed version of cubicweb, fix MANIFEST.in to include tox.ini files (cubicweb's and skeleton's) as this is expected from the test. Closes #14127941.

[pkg] Handle verbose option in setup.py's export function Make debugging easier.

[pkg] Drop unused EMPTY_FILE global variable

[tox] Do not install package in "develop" This might shadow so packaging issues. And user can still pass --develop to tox.

[pkg] Bump version to 3.23.2

pep8 bits

[schema] Add a method on yams constraints to compute its unique name used to identify it in the DB backend.

[migration] Test and fix case of addition of an attribute with some serialized constraint It was crashing on attempt to remove an unexisting constraint. This code may be removed safely as it's expected to be handled by the constraint removal hook. Notice that adding a vocabulary on shortpara makes yams change the varchar max size. This is arguable but not the point of this test, so simply adapt the max size defined in the schema coherently so we don't have to bother with that at this point.

[test] Add a migration test for update of a static vocabulary constraint This is a constraint serialized to be checked by the DB backend, hence ensure the old constraint is dropped and the new one is created.

[schema2sql] Avoid "parsing" SQL statements for database initialization A big SQL string was generated, then splitted. This caused bug if some value in the schema (eg vocabulary, default) contained the separator (';'). To properly fix this, yield each individual statement instead of generating a string. Closes #14050899

[schema2sql] Drop most of the DB DROP related code This code is dead for a while, it has been superseded by `sql_drop_all_user_tables`. Related to #14050899

[hooks] Use already imported module alias

[schema2sql] Rename as_sql to constraint_value_as_sql which is easier to grasp independantly of the context.

[schema2sql] Drop unused indent argument on aschema2sql Related to #14050899

[schema2sql] More docstrings and minor API improvements Along the way, renamed local `column` variable to `attr` where we're NOT manipulating a DB column name but a schema attribute. Related to #14050899

[schema2sql] inline eschema_attrs method * not a public API * doesn't makes things easier to grasp -> useless Related to #14050899
