So, this is fun. Apparently "DeckId" is considered preferable to the
"DeckID" were were using until now, and the latest clippy will start
warning about it. We could of course disable the warning, but probably
better to bite the bullet and switch to the naming that's generally
considered best.
- Filtered deck creation now happens as an atomic operation, and is
undoable.
- The logic for initial search text, normalizing searches and so on
has been pushed into the backend.
- Use protobuf to pass the filtered deck to the updated dialog, so
we don't need to deal with untyped JSON.
- Change the "revise your search?" prompt to be a simple info box -
user has access to cancel and build buttons, and doesn't need a separate
prompt. Tweak the wording so the 'show excluded' button should be more
obvious.
- Filtered decks have a time appended to them instead of a number,
primarily because it's easier to implement. No objections going back to
the old behaviour if someone wants to contribute a clean patch.
The standard de-duplication will happen if two decks are created in the
same minute with the same name.
- Tweak the default sort order, and start with two searches. The UI
will still hide the second search by default, but by starting with two,
the frontend doesn't need logic for creating the starting text.
- Search errors now have their own error type, instead of using
InvalidInput, as that was intended mainly for bad API calls. The markdown
conversion is done when the error is converted from the backend, allowing
errors to printed as a string without any special handling by the calling
code.
TODO: when building a new filtered deck, update_active() is clobbering
the undo log when the overview is refreshed
Not plugged into the Python code yet. Still a work in progress.
Other changes:
- move a bunch of From implementations out of the giant backend/mod.rs
file into separate submodules.
- reorder backend methods to match proto order
- fix some clippy lints
The old rescheduling dialog's two options have been split into two
separate menu items, "Forget", and "Set Due Date"
For cards that are not review cards, "Set Due Date" behaves like the
old reschedule option, changing the cards into a review card, and
and setting both the interval and due date to the provided number of
days.
When "Set Due Date" is applied to a review card, it no longer resets
the card's interval. Instead, it looks at how much the provided number
of days will change the original interval, and adjusts the interval by
that amount, so that cards that are answered earlier receive a smaller
next interval, and cards that are answered after a longer delay receive
a bonus.
For example, imagine a card was answered on day 5, and given an interval
of 10 days, so it has a due date of day 15.
- if on day 10 the due date is changed to day 12 (today+2), the card
is being scheduled 3 days earlier than it was supposed to be, so the
interval will be adjusted to 7 days.
- and if on day 10 the due date is changed to day 20, the interval will
be changed from 10 days to 15 days.
There is no separate option to reset the interval of a review card, but
it can be accomplished by forgetting the card(s), and then setting the
desired due date.
Other notes:
- Added the action to the review screen as well.
- Set the shortcut to Ctrl+Shift+D, and changed the existing Delete
Tags shortcut to Ctrl+Alt+Shift+A.
The majority of the error checking can now be delegated to routines
like parse_f32(), parse_negative_i32() and so on, instead of creating
specific error messages for each type.
- use markdown instead of HTML, to make editing and translating easier
- use a shared prefix
- a few very minor wording tweaks
- we don't need to translate undocumented command errors
- share a string for positive number of days
- share a string for invalid property and state arguments, and avoid
listing them out

- notes with wrong field count are now recovered instead of
being deleted
- notes with missing note types are now recovered
- notes with missing cards are now recovered
- recover_missing_deck() still needs implementing
- checks required
changes to note:
- add_note() now takes a provided deck id instead of looking it up
in the notetype
- note type use counts fetched using a single table scan
- make sure note type changes are persisted
- expose optionalness of ords in templates and fields json
In the cloze deletion case, we already created a dummy card 0 when
no cloze deletions were found. This change makes normal note types
behave the same way - if no cards would be generated, a dummy card
0 is added to allow the note to be added.
This also applies when modifying note types - it is now possible
to delete card templates even if some notes only use that template,
as a dummy card 0 will be generated for notes that end up with no
cards left.
Still a prototype at this stage - we'll likely want a caching layer
for note types, and I'm not sure of the merit of having fields in
a separate table, since they're almost always required.
This is safer than just dropping the backend, as .close() will
block if something else is holding the mutex. Also means we can
drop the extra I18nBackend code.
Media syncing still needs fixing.
