I want mode="w" (i.e. text, with newline conversion) for code that
writes newline-terminated strings (which should also be human readable)
to files. I like to use things like "cat .tahoe/permutation-seed"
without seeing the seed jammed together with the next command prompt.
This also simplifies how case-insensitivity is handled, and fixes a corner case
where the wrong exception was raised when the size ends in "BB".

Unlike set.union(), which returns a new set, DictOfSets.union() modified
the DictOfSets in-place. The name collision bit me when I changed some
code from using DictOfSets to a normal set, and expected that
set.union() would modify the set in-place. Since there was only one user
of DictOfSets.union, I figured it was safer to just get rid of it.
Previously, test_runner sometimes fails because the _node_has_started()
poller fires after the portnum file has been opened, but before it has
actually been filled, allowing the test process to observe an empty file,
which flunks the test.
This adds a new fileutil.write_atomically() function (using the usual
write-to-.tmp-then-rename approach), and uses it for both node.url and
client.port . These files are written a bit before the node is really up and
running, but they're late enough for test_runner's purposes, which is to know
when it's safe to read client.port and use 'tahoe restart' (and therefore
SIGINT) to restart the node.
The current node/client code doesn't offer any better "are you really done
with startup" indicator.. the ideal approach would be to either watch the
logfile, or connect to its flogport, but both are a hassle. Changing the node
to write out a new "all done" file would be intrusive for regular
operations.
This significantly cleans up the IntroducerServer web-status renderers.
Instead of poking around in the introducer's internals, now the web-status
renderers get clean AnnouncementDescriptor and SubscriberDescriptor
objects. They are still somewhat foolscap-centric, but will provide a clean
abstraction boundary for future improvements.
The specific #1721 bug was that old (V1) subscribers were handled by
wrapping their RemoteReference in a special WrapV1SubscriberInV2Interface
object, but the web-status display was trying to peek inside the object to
learn what host+port it was associated with, and the wrapper did not proxy
those extra attributes.
A test was added to test_introducer to make sure the introweb page renders
properly and at least contains the nicknames of both the V1 and V2 clients.
This replaces the setup.cfg aliases that run "darcsver" before each major
command with the new "update_version". update_version is defined in setup.py,
and tries to get a version string from either darcs or git (or leaves the
existing _version.py alone if neither VC metadata is available).
Also clean up a tiny typo in verlib.py that messed up syntax hilighting.
No behavioral changes, just updating variable/method names and log messages.
The effects outside these three files should be minimal: some exception
messages changed (to say "server" instead of "peer"), and some internal class
names were changed. A few things still use "peer" to minimize external
changes, like UploadResults.timings["peer_selection"] and
happinessutil.merge_peers, which can be changed later.
The Range header causes n.read() to be called with an offset= of type 'long',
which eventually got used in a Spans/DataSpans object's __len__ method.
Apparently python doesn't permit __len__() to return longs, only ints.
Rewrote Spans/DataSpans to use s.len() instead of len(s) aka s.__len__() .
Added a test in test_download. Note that test_web didn't catch this because
it uses mock FileNodes for speed: it's probably time to rewrite that.
There is still an unresolved error-recovery problem in #1154, so I'm not
closing the ticket quite yet.
This bug had the effect of making uploads sometimes (rarely) appear to succeed when they had actually not distributed the shares well enough to achieve the desired servers-of-happiness level.
