This patch was originally written by Brian, but was re-recorded by Zooko to use
darcs replace instead of hunks for any file in which it would result in fewer
total hunks.
refs #1363
Pass around IServer instance instead of (peerid, rref) tuple. Replace
"descriptor" with "server". Other replacements:
get_all_servers -> get_connected_servers/get_known_servers
get_servers_for_index -> get_servers_for_psi (now returns IServers)
This change still needs to be pushed further down: lots of code is now
getting the IServer and then distributing (peerid, rref) internally.
Instead, it ought to distribute the IServer internally and delay
extracting a serverid or rref until the last moment.
no_network.py was updated to retain parallelism.
I make some changes on status web pages
status.xhtml:
- Delete unused webform_css link
- Align tables on the left
tahoe-css:
- Do some minor changes on code synthax
- changes table.status-download-events style to look like other tables
status.py:
- Align table on the left
- Changes table header
- Add heading tags
- Modify google api graph: add image border, calculate height to feet data

seems to avoid the #1155 log message which reveals the URI (and filecap).
Also add an [ERROR] marker to the flog entry, since unregisterProducer also
makes interrupted downloads appear "200 OK"; this makes it more obvious that
the download did not complete.
CSS modification to be correctly diplayed with Internet Explorer 8
The links on the top of page directory.xhtml are not diplayed in the same line as display with Firefox.
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.
- Renamed xhtml Title from "Allmydata - Tahoe" to "Tahoe-LAFS"
- Renamed Tahoe to Tahoe-LAFS in page content
- Changed Tahoe-LAFS home page link to http://tahoe-lafs.org (added target="blank")
- Deleted commented css script in info.xhtml
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 proper hierarchy is:
IFilesystemNode
+IFileNode
++IMutableFileNode
++IImmutableFileNode
+IDirectoryNode
Also expand test_client.py (NodeMaker) to hit all IFilesystemNode types.
* stop caching most_recent_size in dirnode, rely upon backing filenode for it
* start caching most_recent_size in MutableFileNode
* return None when you don't know, not "?"
* only render None as "?" in the web "more info" page
* add get_size/get_current_size to UnknownNode
* 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
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.
interfaces.py: define INodeMaker, document argument values, change
create_new_mutable_directory() to take dict-of-nodes. Change
dirnode.set_nodes() and dirnode.create_subdirectory() too.
nodemaker.py: use INodeMaker, update create_new_mutable_directory()
client.py: have create_dirnode() delegate initial_children= to nodemaker
dirnode.py (Adder): take dict-of-nodes instead of list-of-nodes, which
updates set_nodes() and create_subdirectory()
web/common.py (convert_initial_children_json): create dict-of-nodes
web/directory.py: same
web/unlinked.py: same
test_dirnode.py: update tests to match
This makes it more obvious that the Helper currently generates leases with
the Helper's own secrets, rather than getting values from the client, which
is arguably a bug that will likely be resolved with the Accounting project.
* stop using IURI as an adapter
* pass cap strings around instead of URI instances
* move filenode/dirnode creation duties from Client to new NodeMaker class
* move other Client duties to KeyGenerator, SecretHolder, History classes
* stop passing Client reference to dirnode/filenode constructors
- pass less-powerful references instead, like StorageBroker or Uploader
* always create DirectoryNodes by wrapping a filenode (mutable for now)
* remove some specialized mock classes from unit tests
Detailed list of changes (done one at a time, then merged together)
always pass a string to create_node_from_uri(), not an IURI instance
always pass a string to IFilesystemNode constructors, not an IURI instance
stop using IURI() as an adapter, switch on cap prefix in create_node_from_uri()
client.py: move SecretHolder code out to a separate class
test_web.py: hush pyflakes
client.py: move NodeMaker functionality out into a separate object
LiteralFileNode: stop storing a Client reference
immutable Checker: remove Client reference, it only needs a SecretHolder
immutable Upload: remove Client reference, leave SecretHolder and StorageBroker
immutable Repairer: replace Client reference with StorageBroker and SecretHolder
immutable FileNode: remove Client reference
mutable.Publish: stop passing Client
mutable.ServermapUpdater: get StorageBroker in constructor, not by peeking into Client reference
MutableChecker: reference StorageBroker and History directly, not through Client
mutable.FileNode: removed unused indirection to checker classes
mutable.FileNode: remove Client reference
client.py: move RSA key generation into a separate class, so it can be passed to the nodemaker
move create_mutable_file() into NodeMaker
test_dirnode.py: stop using FakeClient mockups, use NoNetworkGrid instead. This simplifies the code, but takes longer to run (17s instead of 6s). This should come down later when other cleanups make it possible to use simpler (non-RSA) fake mutable files for dirnode tests.
test_mutable.py: clean up basedir names
client.py: move create_empty_dirnode() into NodeMaker
dirnode.py: get rid of DirectoryNode.create
remove DirectoryNode.init_from_uri, refactor NodeMaker for customization, simplify test_web's mock Client to match
stop passing Client to DirectoryNode, make DirectoryNode.create_with_mutablefile the normal DirectoryNode constructor, start removing client from NodeMaker
remove Client from NodeMaker
move helper status into History, pass History to web.Status instead of Client
test_mutable.py: fix minor typo
webapi.txt: clarify replace=only-files argument, mention replace= on POST t=uri
test_cli.py: insert whitespace between logical operations
web.common.parse_replace_arg: make it case-insensitive, to match the docs
we actually exercise during tests) into more specific exceptions, so they
don't get optimized away. The best rule to follow is probably this: if an
exception is worth testing, then it's part of the API, and AssertionError
should never be part of the API. Closes#749.
The idea is that future versions of Tahoe will add new URI types that this
version won't recognize, but might store them in directories that we *can*
read. We should handle these "objects from the future" as best we can.
Previous releases of Tahoe would just explode. With this change, we'll
continue to be able to work with everything else in the directory.
The code change is to wrap anything we don't recognize as an UnknownNode
instance (as opposed to a FileNode or DirectoryNode). Then webapi knows how
to render these (mostly by leaving fields blank), deep-check knows to skip
over them, deep-stats counts them in "count-unknown". You can rename and
delete these things, but you can't add new ones (because we wouldn't know how
to generate a readcap to put into the dirnode's rocap slot, and because this
lets us catch typos better).
* emit lease expiry date in ISO-8601'ish format as well as Brian's format
* rename iso_utc_time_to_localseconds() to iso_utc_time_to_seconds()
* add iso_utc_date()
* simplify the body of iso_utc_time_to_seconds()
This walks slowly through all shares, examining their leases, deciding which
are still valid and which have expired. Once enabled, it will then remove the
expired leases, and delete shares which no longer have any valid leases. Note
that there is not yet a tahoe.cfg option to enable lease-deletion: the
current code is read-only. A subsequent patch will add a tahoe.cfg knob to
control this, as well as docs. Some other minor items included in this patch:
tahoe debug dump-share has a new --leases-only flag
storage sharefile/leaseinfo code is cleaned up
storage web status page (/storage) has more info, more tests coverage
space-left measurement on OS-X should be more accurate (it was off by 2048x)
(use stat .f_frsize instead of f_bsize)
This reverses some, but not all, of the changes that were committed in the following set of patches.

Because Brian argues that the file contains a description of the wui as well as of the wapi, and because the name "webapi.txt" might be more obvious to the untrained eye.
It used to be a map from shnum to a string saying "placed this share on XYZ server". The new definition is more in keeping with the "sharemap" object that results from immutable file checking and repair, and it is more useful to the repairer, which is a consumer of immutable upload results.
Tahoe webapi was failing on HTTP request containing a partial Range header.
This change allows movies players like mplayer to seek in movie files stored in
tahoe.
Associated tests for GET and HEAD methods are also included
Refactor into a class the logic of asking each server in turn until one of them gives an answer
that validates. It is called ValidatedThingObtainer.
Refactor the downloading and verification of the URI Extension Block into a class named
ValidatedExtendedURIProxy.
The new logic of validating UEBs is minimalist: it doesn't require the UEB to contain any
unncessary information, but of course it still accepts such information for backwards
compatibility (so that this new download code is able to download files uploaded with old, and
for that matter with current, upload code).
The new logic of validating UEBs follows the practice of doing all validation up front. This
practice advises one to isolate the validation of incoming data into one place, so that all of
the rest of the code can assume only valid data.
If any redundant information is present in the UEB+URI, the new code cross-checks and asserts
that it is all fully consistent. This closes some issues where the uploader could have
uploaded inconsistent redundant data, which would probably have caused the old downloader to
simply reject that download after getting a Python exception, but perhaps could have caused
greater harm to the old downloader.
I removed the notion of selecting an erasure codec from codec.py based on the string that was
passed in the UEB. Currently "crs" is the only such string that works, so
"_assert(codec_name == 'crs')" is simpler and more explicit. This is also in keeping with the
"validate up front" strategy -- now if someone sets a different string than "crs" in their UEB,
the downloader will reject the download in the "validate this UEB" function instead of in a
separate "select the codec instance" function.
I removed the code to check plaintext hashes and plaintext Merkle Trees. Uploaders do not
produce this information any more (since it potentially exposes confidential information about
the file), and the unit tests for it were disabled. The downloader before this patch would
check that plaintext hash or plaintext merkle tree if they were present, but not complain if
they were absent. The new downloader in this patch complains if they are present and doesn't
check them. (We might in the future re-introduce such hashes over the plaintext, but encrypt
the hashes which are stored in the UEB to preserve confidentiality. This would be a double-
check on the correctness of our own source code -- the current Merkle Tree over the ciphertext
is already sufficient to guarantee the integrity of the download unless there is a bug in our
Merkle Tree or AES implementation.)
This patch increases the lines-of-code count by 8 (from 17,770 to 17,778), and reduces the
uncovered-by-tests lines-of-code count by 24 (from 1408 to 1384). Those numbers would be more
meaningful if we omitted src/allmydata/util/ from the test-coverage statistics.
to make the internal ones use binary strings (nodeid, storage index) and
the web/JSON ones use base32-encoded strings. The immutable verifier is
still incomplete (it returns imaginary healty results).
Removed the Checker service, removed checker results storage (both in-memory
and the tiny stub of sqlite-based storage). Added ICheckable, all
check/verify is now done by calling the check() method on filenodes and
dirnodes (immutable files, literal files, mutable files, and directory
instances).
Checker results are returned in a Results instance, with an html() method for
display. Checker results have been temporarily removed from the wui directory
listing until we make some other fixes.
Also fixed client.create_node_from_uri() to create LiteralFileNodes properly,
since they have different checking behavior. Previously we were creating full
FileNodes with LIT uris inside, which were downloadable but not checkable.
when rendering a directory in webish, if the url did not correctly include
a trailing slash '/' then the browser will be redirected to a url which
does. this causes any relative links (e.g. the 'other representations'
which are links to files relative to the current directory) to be correctly
intrpreted as relative to the directory in question by the browser.
uses twisted's addSlash mechanism, which is designed for this purpose :-)
Jake Edge tried Tahoe out and didn't notice the /status page. Hopefully with this new organization people like he will see that link more easily. This also addresses drewp's suggestion that the controls appear above the list of servers instead of below. (I think that was his suggestion.) I also reordered the controls.
not status instances. Fix this. The symptom was that following a link like
'up-123' that referred to an old operation (no longer in memory) while an
upload was active would get an ugly traceback instead of a "no such resource"
message.
Now upload or encode methods take a required argument named "convergence" which can be either None, indicating no convergent encryption at all, or a string, which is the "added secret" to be mixed in to the content hash key. If you want traditional convergent encryption behavior, set the added secret to be the empty string.
This patch also renames "content hash key" to "convergent encryption" in a argument names and variable names. (A different and larger renaming is needed in order to clarify that Tahoe supports immutable files which are not encrypted content-hash-key a.k.a. convergent encryption.)
This patch also changes a few unit tests to use non-convergent encryption, because it doesn't matter for what they are testing and non-convergent encryption is slightly faster.
using sibpath to find web template files relative to source code is functional
when running from source environments, but not especially flexible when running
from bundled built environments. the more 'orthodox' mechanism, pkg_resources,
in theory at least, knows how to find resource files in various environments.
this makes the 'web' directory in allmydata into an actual allmydata.web module
(since pkg_resources looks for files relative to a named module, and that module
must be importable) and uses pkg_resources.resource_filename to find the files
therein.
* rename my_private_dir.cap to root_dir.cap
* move it into the private subdir
* change the cmdline argument "--root-uri=[private]" to "--dir-uri=[root]"
Unfortunately although it passes the unit tests, it doesn't work, because the unit tests and the implementation use the "encode params into URL" technique but the button uses the "encode params into request body" technique.
* use new decentralized directories everywhere instead of old centralized directories
* provide UI to them through the web server
* provide UI to them through the CLI
* update unit tests to simulate decentralized mutable directories in order to test other components that rely on them
* remove the notion of a "vdrive server" and a client thereof
* remove the notion of a "public vdrive", which was a directory that was centrally published/subscribed automatically by the tahoe node (you can accomplish this manually by making a directory and posting the URL to it on your web site, for example)
* add a notion of "wait_for_numpeers" when you need to publish data to peers, which is how many peers should be attached before you start. The default is 1.
* add __repr__ for filesystem nodes (note: these reprs contain a few bits of the secret key!)
* fix a few bugs where we used to equate "mutable" with "not read-only". Nowadays all directories are mutable, but some might be read-only (to you).
* fix a few bugs where code wasn't aware of the new general-purpose metadata dict the comes with each filesystem edge
* sundry fixes to unit tests to adjust to the new directories, e.g. don't assume that every share on disk belongs to a chk file.
alongside the 'del' button is now presented a 'rename' button, which takes
the user to a new page, the 't=rename-form' page, which asks ther user for
the new name of the child and ultimately submits a POST request to the dir
for 't=rename' to perform the actual rename i.e. an attach followed by a
delete of children.
