historically, Libervia (SàT before) was using camelCase as allowed by PEP8 when using a
pre-PEP8 code, to use the same coding style as in Twisted.
However, snake_case is more readable and it's better to follow PEP8 best practices, so it
has been decided to move on full snake_case. Because Libervia has a huge codebase, this
ended with a ugly mix of camelCase and snake_case.
To fix that, this patch does a big refactoring by renaming every function and method
(including bridge) that are not coming from Twisted or Wokkel, to use fully snake_case.
This is a massive change, and may result in some bugs.
The `LIBERVIA_BRIDGE_NAME` environment variable can now be used to specify the bridge to
use. If set and different from empty string, the environment has precedence over config
file value.
For `pb` bridge, the following environment variable can also be used:
- LIBERVIA_BRIDGE_PB_CONNECTION_TYPE
- LIBERVIA_BRIDGE_PB_HOST
- LIBERVIA_BRIDGE_PB_PORT
all settings are to be put in `[DEFAULT]` section
- `bridge_pb_connection_type` can be set to `unix_socket` or `socket`
- for `socket`, `bridge_pb_host` and `bridge_pb_port` can be specified
/!\ this is a huge commit
/!\ starting from this commit, SàT is needs Python 3.6+
/!\ SàT maybe be instable or some feature may not work anymore, this will improve with time
This patch port backend, bridge and frontends to Python 3.
Roughly this has been done this way:
- 2to3 tools has been applied (with python 3.7)
- all references to python2 have been replaced with python3 (notably shebangs)
- fixed files not handled by 2to3 (notably the shell script)
- several manual fixes
- fixed issues reported by Python 3 that where not handled in Python 2
- replaced "async" with "async_" when needed (it's a reserved word from Python 3.7)
- replaced zope's "implements" with @implementer decorator
- temporary hack to handle data pickled in database, as str or bytes may be returned,
to be checked later
- fixed hash comparison for password
- removed some code which is not needed anymore with Python 3
- deactivated some code which needs to be checked (notably certificate validation)
- tested with jp, fixed reported issues until some basic commands worked
- ported Primitivus (after porting dependencies like urwid satext)
- more manual fixes
rosterResync do a full resynchronisation of roster with server. This should not be needed, but may be useful if user suspect a sync issue for whatever reason.
