The _pb2 files are built for both the host and target architectures
(which seems superfluous - we may be able to fix that in the future).
Our script wrote the files into the build folder and then moved them
into the correct place, but because builds are not sandboxed on Windows,
the two actions were racy, and could cause each other to fail. Solved
by writing the files directly into their target locations.
* The importer list have a Hook
Previously, add-on 175027074 simply edited the list once. It became impossible
since the list became a function. Hence I need a filter to add the list here.
@kelciour (nice to meet you by the way), you may be interested by it too (at
least if I believe efb1ce46d4 )
I would have preferred to use `anki.importing.base.Importer` instead of
`Any`. However, this leads to
> Name "anki.importing.base.Importer" is not defined [name-defined]
when I run test.
Helps to solve this would be welcomed
* mention the hook may not last too long (dae)
* Add py3.9 to hooks
This follows examples from efb1ce46d4 I assume the
hooks were missed because those were not considered types but strings.
I did not even try to run pyupgrade and did the change manually, then used bazel format
* remove wildcard import in find.py, and change Any to object (dae)
It's a tiny library that has not been updated in years, and it was
leading to a warning on startup:
DeprecationWarning: invalid escape sequence \W
return re.sub("\W+", "", string)
This adds Python 3.9 and 3.10 typing syntax to files that import
attributions from __future___. Python 3.9 should be able to cope with
the 3.10 syntax, but Python 3.8 will no longer work.
On Windows/Mac, install the latest Python 3.9 version from python.org.
There are currently no orjson wheels for Python 3.10 on Windows/Mac,
which will break the build unless you have Rust installed separately.
On Linux, modern distros should have Python 3.9 available already. If
you're on an older distro, you'll need to build Python from source first.
In order to split backend.proto into a more manageable size, the protobuf
handling needed to be updated. This took more time than I would have
liked, as each language handles protobuf differently:
- The Python Protobuf code ignores "package" directives, and relies
solely on how the files are laid out on disk. While it would have been
nice to keep the generated files in a private subpackage, Protobuf gets
confused if the files are located in a location that does not match
their original .proto layout, so the old approach of storing them in
_backend/ will not work. They now clutter up pylib/anki instead. I'm
rather annoyed by that, but alternatives seem to be having to add an extra
level to the Protobuf path, making the other languages suffer, or trying
to hack around the issue by munging sys.modules.
- Protobufjs fails to expose packages if they don't start with a capital
letter, despite the fact that lowercase packages are the norm in most
languages :-( This required a patch to fix.
- Rust was the easiest, as Prost is relatively straightforward compared
to Google's tools.
The Protobuf files are now stored in /proto/anki, with a separate package
for each file. I've split backend.proto into a few files as a test, but
the majority of that work is still to come.
The Python Protobuf building is a bit of a hack at the moment, hard-coding
"proto" as the top level folder, but it seems to get the job done for now.
Also changed the workspace name, as there seems to be a number of Bazel
repos moving away from the more awkward reverse DNS naming style.
The explicit flush was clearing undo history, and the hook will need
re-working to support propagating OpChanges correctly. It will likely
come back as a GUI hook, instead of one in pylib.
- QueueConfig is only used by the scheduler
- DeckConfig was being used in places that Config should have been used
- Add "Dict" to the name so that the bare name is free for use with a
stronger type.
- anki._backend stores the protobuf files and rsbackend.py code
- pylib modules import protobuf messages directly from the
_pb2 files, and explicitly export any will be returned or consumed
by public pylib functions, so that calling code can import from pylib
- the "rsbackend" no longer imports and re-exports protobuf messages
- pylib can just consume them directly.
- move errors to errors.py
Still todo:
- rsbridge
- finishing the work on rsbackend, and check what we need to add
back to the original file location to avoid breaking add-ons
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.
- blue for normal sync, red for full sync required
- refactor status fetching code so we don't hold a collection lock
during the network request, which slows things down
- fix sync spinner restarting when returning to deck list
