ikaaro 0.78.0 - 2019/02/08

ikaaro 0.78.0 is a transitional version. We've:

  • We replaced the libsoup server by gevent.WSGIServer to simplify Python 3 migration.
  • The goal is to migrate itools/ikaaro to Python 3 and to use a simple WSGI server with asyncio.

The purpose is to prepare future:

  • Migration to python3
  • Increase performances of database
  • Possibility to add an SQL backend (posgres json for example ?)
  • Allow to handle several requests at once on ikaaro webserver
  • Simplify build of javascript web applications with ikaaro

In 0.78 we'll try to make non breaking changes. (or small ones).

Changes

  • We replaced libsoup server by gevent.WSGIServer
  • Unused packages have been removed to simplify migration to python 3 (itools.blog, itools.cc, itools.agenda, itools.comments)
  • Static view /ui/xxx now use context.get_template so there's a cache (Now served files should be loadable via handlers - so with no errors)
  • Catalog don't flush data on disk at each transaction to increase commits speed
  • itools.web: Cache headers to increase speed of cookies decoding
  • itools.database: Add new unitests on database, & fix many bugs
  • Resource.del_resource: Do not check cookies, that should be done in views
  • Now we clearly identify the differences between Folder and Resource (for performances: Don't need to do DB queries to search resources childs)
  • Resource: the index field has been removed (not used & avoid useless call to get_links on each resources)
  • Add Dockerfile to simplify tests: https://hub.docker.com/r/hforge/
  • Continous Integration: Connect to CircleCI https://circleci.com/gh/hforge
  • Resource.get_names() return an iterator
  • Add method Server.launch_at_stop()
  • Log cron informations into example.com/log/cron
  • Cron actions are called via HTTP requests
  • Improve unitests workflows
  • Folders: Resources can be added in current folder only (List with childs didn't scale)
  • Remove 'is_content' index (never that simple)
  • We've removed obsolete package
