this is a big patch as things had to be changed at the same time.
- changed methods using profile argument to use client instead
- move SatFile in a new tools.stream module, has it should be part of core, not a plugin
- new IStreamProducer interface, to handler starting a pull producer
- new FileStreamObject which create a stream producer/consumer from a SatFile
- plugin pipe is no more using unix named pipe, as it complicate the thing,
special care need to be taken to not block, and it's generally not necessary.
Instead a socket is now used, so the plugin has been renomed to jingle stream.
- bad connection/error should be better handler in jingle stream plugin, and code should not block anymore
- jp pipe commands have been updated accordingly
fix bug 237
- new internal registerNamespace can be used by a plugin to associate a short name to a namespace
- new NamespacesGet bridge method retrieve those associations
- list just display commands available at ad-hoc entry point. --verbose allows to display values names, which is useful for automation.
- run can either run interactively a command, or execute a workflow to automate them.
first implementation of XMLUI for jp. The display is simplistic for now by displaying widgets in the order in which they appear, and doing a simple input when a value is needed.
Not all widgets/dialogs are implemented yet, and most flags/options/styles are not handled.
It is possible to automate command, using "workflow" attribute:
it's a list of command that are executed in order. So far only a const (SUBMIT) and fields values can be set.
If verbosity is set, fields name are displayed, which can be useful to automate commands.
following flags have been added:
- noselect: list selection is not allowed (options are the important data)
- extensible: user can add elements to the list
- reducible: user can remove elements from the list
- inline: presentation hint: the list should be displayed horizontally
- mapping is an option allowing do map imported field to a specific field in the newly created item
- importers can now use complexe data types in options using JSON
_xmlui_for_name is an attribute which can be set to Label widgets to indicate the name of the linked widget.
This attribute is set automatically for LabelContainer.
data argument in _parseChilds is now a dict (or None)
LabelContainer is like a PairContainer where first widget can only be LabelWidget or EmptyWidget. This case is the most common, and allow to generate better code when label can be associated to widget (e.g. in HTML).
- main profile (i.e. the one specified on command line when invocating "jp shell") was not used. It is now added to arguments if the value is not overriden on command line or in use
- EOF (i.e. when user press C-d) is now understood as "quit" command
those methods are added in pubsub directly instead of being subcommands of pubsub/subscription to make them more easy/natural to use. The node owner versions are in pubsub/node/subscriptions though.
- type of discovery can now be specified (can be "infos", "items", or "both" which is the default)
- a complex output is now used
- default output has been improved by the use of colors an tables
