deliver all shares at once instead of feeding them out one-at-a-time.
Also fix distribution of real-number-of-segments information: now all
CommonShares (not just the ones used for the first segment) get a
correctly-sized hashtree. Previously, the late ones might not, which would
make them crash and get dropped (causing the download to fail if the initial
set were insufficient, perhaps because one of their servers went away).
Update tests, add some TODO notes, improve variable names and comments.
Improve logging: add logparents, set more appropriate levels.
This patch also renames some instances of "find_shares()" to "find_all_shares()" and other instances to "find_uri_shares()" as appropriate -- the conflation between those names confused me at first when writing these tests.
Fix parsing of a Range: header to support:
- multiple ranges (parsed, but not returned)
- suffix byte ranges ("-2139")
- correct handling of incorrectly formatted range headers
(correct behaviour is to ignore the header and return the full
file)
- return appropriate error for ranges outside the file
Multiple ranges are parsed, but only the first range is returned.
Returning multiple ranges requires using the multipart/byterange
content type.
To test the changes for #577, we need a deterministic way to simulate
the passage of long periods of time. twisted.internet.task.Clock seems,
from my Googling, to be the way to go for this functionality. I changed
a few things so that OphandleTable would use twisted.internet.task.Clock
when testing:
* WebishServer.__init___ now takes an optional 'clock' parameter,
* which it passes to the root.Root instance it creates.
* root.Root.__init__ now takes an optional 'clock' parameter, which it
passes to the OphandleTable.__init__ method.
* OphandleTable.__init__ now takes an optional 'clock' parameter. If
it is provided, and it isn't None, its callLater method will be used
to schedule ophandle expirations (as opposed to using
reactor.callLater, which is what OphandleTable does normally).
* The WebMixin object in test_web.py now sets a self.clock parameter,
which is a twisted.internet.task.Clock that it feeds to the
WebishServer it creates.
Tests using the WebMixin can control the passage of time in
OphandleTable by accessing self.clock.
web/filenode.py: also serve edge metadata when using t=json on a
DIRCAP/childname object.
tahoe_ls.py: list file objects as if we were listing one-entry directories.
Show edge metadata if we have it, which will be true when doing
'tahoe ls DIRCAP/filename' and false when doing 'tahoe ls
FILECAP'
This forbids operations that would implicitly create a directory with a
zero-length (empty string) name, like what you'd get if you did "tahoe put
local /oops/blah" (#358) or "POST /uri/CAP//?t=mkdir" (#676). The error
message is fairly friendly too.
Also added code to "tahoe put" to catch this error beforehand and suggest the
correct syntax (i.e. without the leading slash).
The webapi has been looking for an Accept header since 1.4.0, but it treats a
missing header as equal to */* (to honor RFC2616). This change finally
modifies our CLI tools to ask for "text/plain, application/octet-stream",
which seems roughly correct (we either want a plain-text traceback or error
message, or an uninterpreted chunk of binary data to save to disk). Some day
we'll figure out how JSON fits into this scheme.
* remove Downloader.download_to_data/download_to_filename/download_to_filehandle
* remove download.Data/FileName/FileHandle targets
* remove filenode.download/download_to_data/download_to_filename methods
* leave Downloader.download (the whole Downloader will go away eventually)
* add util.consumer.MemoryConsumer/download_to_data, for convenience
(this is mostly used by unit tests, but it gets used by enough non-test
code to warrant putting it in allmydata.util)
* update tests
* removes about 180 lines of code. Yay negative code days!
Overall plan is to rewrite immutable/download.py and leave filenode.read() as
the sole read-side API.
* change t=mkdir-with-children to not use multipart/form encoding. Instead,
the request body is all JSON. t=mkdir-immutable uses this format too.
* make nodemaker.create_immutable_dirnode() get convergence from SecretHolder,
but let callers override it
* raise NotDeepImmutableError instead of using assert()
* add mutable= argument to DirectoryNode.create_subdirectory(), default True
* "cap" means a python instance which encapsulates a filecap/dircap (uri.py)
* "uri" means a string with a "URI:" prefix
* FileNode instances are created with (and retain) a cap instance, and
generate uri strings on demand
* .get_cap/get_readcap/get_verifycap/get_repaircap return cap instances
* .get_uri/get_readonly_uri return uri strings
* add filenode.download_to_filename() for control.py, should find a better way
* use MutableFileNode.init_from_cap, not .init_from_uri
* directory URI instances: use get_filenode_cap, not get_filenode_uri
* update/cleanup bench_dirnode.py to match, add Makefile target to run it
This is safer: in the earlier API, an old webapi server would silently ignore
the initial children, and clients trying to set them would have to fetch the
newly-created directory to discover the incompatibility. In the new API,
clients using t=mkdir-with-children against an old webapi server will get a
clear error.
