This patch makes a significant number of changes to the fuse 'runtests' script
which stem from my efforts to integrate the third fuse implementation into this
framework. Perhaps not all were necessary to that end, and I beg nejucomo's
forebearance if I got too carried away.
- cleaned up the blank lines; imho blank lines should be empty
- made the unmount command switch based on platform, since macfuse just uses
'umount' not the 'fusermount' command (which doesn't exist)
- made the expected working dir for runtests the contrib/fuse dir, not the
top-level tahoe source tree - see also discussion of --path-to-tahoe below
- significantly reworked the ImplProcManager class. rather than subclassing
for each fuse implementation to be tested, the new version is based on
instantiating objects and providing relevant config info to the constructor.
this was motivated by a desire to eliminate the duplication of similar but
subtly different code between instances, framed by consideration of increasing
the number of platforms and implementations involved. each implementation to
test is thus reduced to the pertinent import and an entry in the
'implementations' table defining how to handle that implementation. this also
provides a way to specify which sets of tests to run for each implementation,
more on that below.
- significantly reworked the command line options parsing, using twisted.usage;
what used to be a single optional argument is now represented by the
--test-type option which allows one to choose between running unittests, the
system tests, or both.
the --implementations option allows for a specific (comma-separated) list of
implemenations to be tested, or the default 'all'
the --tests option allows for a specific (comma-separated) list of tests sets
to be run, or the default 'all'. note that only the intersection of tests
requested on the command line and tests relevant to each implementation will
be run. see below for more on tests sets.
the --path-to-tahoe open allows for the path to the 'tahoe' executable to be
specified. it defaults to '../../bin/tahoe' which is the location of the tahoe
script in the source tree relative to the contrib/fuse dir by default.
the --tmp-dir option controls where temporary directories (and hence
mountpoints) are created during the test. this defaults to /tmp - a change
from the previous behaviour of using the system default dir for calls to
tempfile.mkdtemp(), a behaviour which can be obtained by providing an empty
value, e.g. "--tmp-dir="
the --debug-wait flag causes the test runner to pause waiting upon user
input at various stages through the testing, which facilitates debugging e.g.
by allowing the user to open a browser and explore or modify the contents of
the ephemeral grid after it has been instantiated but before tests are run,
or make environmental adjustments before actually triggering fuse mounts etc.
note that the webapi url for the first client node is printed out upon its
startup to facilitate this sort of debugging also.
- the default tmp dir was changed, and made configurable. previously the
default behaviour of tempfile.mkdtemp() was used. it turns out that, at least
on the mac, that led to temporary directories to be created in a location
which ultimately led to mountpoint paths longer than could be handled by
macfuse - specifically mounted filesystems could not be unmounted and would
'leak'. by changing the default location to be rooted at /tmp this leads to
mountpoint paths short enough to be supported without problems.
- tests are now grouped into 'sets' by method name prefix. all the existing
tests have been moved into the 'read' set, i.e. with method names starting
'test_read_'. this is intended to facilitate the fact that some implementations
are read-only, and some support write, so the applicability of tests will vary
by implementation. the 'implementations' table, which governs the configuration
of the ImplProcManager responsible for a given implementation, provides a list
of 'test' (i.e test set names) which are applicable to that implementation.
note no 'write' tests yet exist, this is merely laying the groundwork.
- the 'expected output' of the tahoe command, which is checked for 'surprising'
output by regex match, can be confused by spurious output from libraries.
specfically, testing on the mac produced a warning message about zope interface
resolution various multiple eggs. the 'check_tahoe_output()' function now has
a list of 'ignorable_lines' (each a regex) which will be discarded before the
remainder of the output of the tahoe script is matched against expectation.
- cleaned up a typo, and a few spurious imports caught by pyflakes
specifically change the expectation of the code to be such that the node-url
(self.url) always includes the trailing slash to be a correctly formed url
moreover read the node-url from the 'node.url' file found in the node 'basedir'
and only if that doesn't exist, then fall back to reading the 'webport' file
from therein and assuming localhost. This then supports the general tahoe
pattern that tools needing only a webapi server can be pointed at a directory
containing the node.url file, which can optionally point to another server,
rather than requiring a complete node dir and locally running node instance.
from testing on linux (specifically ubuntu hardy) the libfuse dll has a
different name, specifically libfuse.so.2. this patch tries libfuse.so
and then falls back to trying .2 if the former fails.
it also changes the unmount behaviour, to simply return from the handler's
loop_forever() loop upon being unmounted, rather than raising an EOFError,
since none of the client code I looked at actually handled that exception,
but did seem to expect to fall off of main() when loop_forever() returned.
Additionally, from my testing unmount typically led to an OSError from the
fuse fd read, rather than an empty read, as the code seemed to expect.
also removed a spurious import pyflakes quibbled about.
setup: fix site-dirs to find system installed twisted on mac.
zooko helped me unravel a build weirdness today. somehow the system installed
twisted (/System/Library) was pulling in parts of the other twisted (/Library)
which had been installed by easy_install, and exploding.
getting rid of the latter helped, but it took this change to get the tahoe
build to stop trying to rebuild twisted and instead use the one that was
already installed. c.f. tkt #229
CLI: rework webopen, and moreover its tests w.r.t. path handling
in the recent reconciliation of webopen patches, I wound up adjusting
webopen to 'pass through' the state of the trailing slash on the given
argument to the resultant url passed to the browser. this change
removes the requirement that arguments must be directories, and allows
webopen to be used with files. it also broke the tests that assumed
that webopen would always normalise the url to have a trailing slash.
in fixing the tests, I realised that, IMHO, there's something deeply
awry with the way tahoe handles paths; specifically in the combination
of '/' being the name of the root path within an alias, but a leading
slash on paths, e.g. 'alias:/path', is catagorically incorrect. i.e.
'tahoe:' == 'tahoe:/' == '/'
but 'tahoe:/foo' is an invalid path, and must be 'tahoe:foo'
I wound up making the internals of webopen simply spot a 'path' of
'/' and smash it to '', which 'fixes' webopen to match the behaviour
of tahoe's path handling elsewhere, but that special case sort of
points to the weirdness.
(fwiw, I personally found the fact that the leading / in a path was
disallowed to be weird - I'm just used to seeing paths qualified by
the leading / I guess - so in a debate about normalising path handling
I'd vote to include the /)
I think this is largely attributable to a cleanup patch I'd made
which never got committed upstream somehow, but at any rate various
conflicting changes to webopen had been made. This cleans up the
conflicts therein, and hopefully brings 'tahoe webopen' in line with
other cli commands.

cli: cleanup webopen command
moved the body of webopen out of cli.py into tahoe_webopen.py
made its invocation consistent with the other cli commands, most
notably replacing its 'vdrive path' with the same alias parsing,
allowing usage such as 'tahoe webopen private:Pictures/xti'
setup: when detecting platform, ask the Python Standard Library's platform.dist() before executing lsb_release, and cache the result in global (module) variables
This should make it sufficiently fast, while still giving a better answer on Ubuntu than platform.dist() currently does, and also falling back to lsb_release if platform.dist() says that it doesn't know.
setup: stop catching EnvironmentError when attempting to copy ./_auto_deps.py to ./src/allmydata/_auto_deps.py
It is no longer the case that we can run okay without _auto_deps.py being in place in ./src/allmydata, so if that cp fails then the build should fail.
immutable: refactor immutable filenodes and comparison thereof
* the two kinds of immutable filenode now have a common base class
* they store only an instance of their URI, not both an instance and a string
* they delegate comparison to that instance
setup: try parsing /etc/lsb-release first, then invoking lsb_release, because the latter takes half-a-second on my workstation, which is too long
Also because in some cases the former will work and the latter won't.
This patch also tightens the regexes so it won't match random junk.
setup: if executing lsb_release doesn't work, fall back to parsing /etc/lsb-release before falling back to platform.dist()
An explanatio of why we do it this way is in the docstring.
setup: if invoking lsb_release doesn't work (which it doesn't on our etch buildslave), then fall back to the Python Standard Library's platform.dist() function
setup: when using the foolscap "what versions are here?" feature, use allmydata.get_package_versions() instead of specifically importing allmydata, pycryptopp, and zfec
setup: simplify the implementation of allmydata.get_package_versions() and add "platform" which is a human-oriented summary of the underlying operating system and machine

startstop_node.py: find twistd in our supportlib if we had to build Twisted as a setuptools dependency. This is a form of cgalvan's #505 patch, simplified because now 'setup.py trial' takes care of sys.path and PYTHONPATH

rewrite parts of the Makefile in setup.py. Add 'build_tahoe' and 'trial' subcommands.
The 'make build' target now runs 'setup.py build_tahoe', which figures out
where the target 'supportlib' directory should go, and invokes 'setup.py
develop' with the appropriate arguments.
The 'make test' target now runs 'setup.py trial', which manages sys.path and
runs trial as a subroutine instead of spawning an external process. This
simplifies the case where Twisted was built as a dependent library (and thus
the 'trial' executable is not on PATH).
setup.py now manages sys.path and PYTHONPATH for its internal subcommands, so
the $(PP) prefix was removed from all Makefile targets that invoke setup.py .
For the remaining ones, the 'setup.py -q show_pythonpath' subcommand was
added to compute this prefix with python rather than with fragile
shell/Makefile syntax.

checker results: add output=JSON to webapi, add tests, clean up APIs

the web/JSON ones use base32-encoded strings. The immutable verifier is

setup: change URL from which to get source tarballs
So that when you look at that directory you won't see distracting other things such as darcs repositories.
setup: don't assert that trial is present when the Makefile is evaluated
This should fix #506, but it means that if (for some weird reason) Twisted can't be auto-installed and the find_trial.py script doesn't work, the user will get a weird failure message instead of a clean failure message explaining that trial couldn't be found. Oh well.
Chris Galvan is working on a much nicer fix to all these issues -- see #505.
