Issues that need fixing:
- when the editor saves the note with perform_op(), if it isn't modified,
no new undo entry is created, and perform_op then returns the changes
made by the previous operation instead
- the approach of fetching the last action in a subsequent backend
method is unsound, as another queued operation may sneak in first before
we have a chance to query the result - it would be better if it were
returned in a single atomic action
- redrawing the current card while editing is likely to make sound
autoplay annoyingly, and it has an unpleasant redraw. We may be better off
fading it out instead
Side note: the editor cursor moves to the start of the field when the
note is updated in another window - it might be nicer to have it move
the cursor to the end instead.
- This avoids the need for a separate screen, though we may want to
slightly fade out the display when information is stale.
- Means the browser can delay updates just like the main window does.
'card modified' covers the common case where we need to rebuild the
study queue, but is also set when changing the card flags. We want to
avoid a queue rebuild in that case, as it causes UI flicker, and may
result in a different card being shown. Note marking doesn't trigger
a queue build, but still causes flicker, and may return the user back
to the front side when they were looking at the answer.
I still think entity-based change tracking is the simplest in the
common case, but to solve the above, I've introduced an enum describing
the last operation that was taken. This currently is not trying to list
out all possible operations, and just describes the ones we want to
special-case.
Other changes:
- Fire the old 'state_did_reset' hook after an operation is performed,
so legacy code can refresh itself after an operation is performed.
- Fire the new `operation_did_execute` hook when mw.reset() is called,
so that as the UI is updated to the use the new hook, it will still
be able to refresh after legacy code calls mw.reset()
- Update the deck browser, overview and review screens to listen to
the new hook, instead of relying on the main window to call moveToState()
- Add a 'set flag' backend action, so we can distinguish it from a
normal card update.
- Drop the separate added/modified entries in the change list in
favour of a single entry per entity.
- Add typing to mw.state
- Tweak perform_op()
- Convert a few more actions to use perform_op()
- Handle deck building inside class. New deck is built unless caller
passes filtered deck.
- If no deck is passed and current deck is filtered, copy settings.
- Remove exec_().
Running and testing should be working on the three platforms, but
there's still a fair bit that needs to be done:
- Wheel building + testing in a venv still needs to be implemented.
- Python requirements still need to be compiled with piptool and pinned;
need to compile on all platforms then merge
- Cargo deps in cargo/ and rslib/ need to be cleaned up, and ideally
unified into one place
- Currently using rustls to work around openssl compilation issues
on Linux, but this will break corporate proxies with custom SSL
authorities; need to conditionally use openssl or use
https://github.com/seanmonstar/reqwest/pull/1058
- Makefiles and docs still need cleaning up
- It may make sense to reparent ts/* to the top level, as we don't
nest the other modules under a specific language.
- rspy and pylib must always be updated in lock-step, so merging
rspy into pylib as a private module would simplify things.
- Merging desktop-ftl and mobile-ftl into the core ftl would make
managing and updating translations easier.
- Obsolete scripts need removing.
- And probably more.
- wins back the performance lost by the decks and dconf not being
in memory, and the overhead of serializing data for DB calls
- card counts are no longer capped to 1000
- learn counts are currently still calculated separately - can't merge
v1 counts without changing the existing behaviour
- partially rendering the tree may yield more savings
Forces the Fusion theme when running night mode, so we don't need
to work around platform themes that don't respond to the defined
palette.
Feedback/suggestions on the chosen colours welcome - _vars.scss is the
file to change if you want to experiment with adjustments.
