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.
* 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
* 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
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).
