- notetypes are fetched from the DB as needed, and cached in Python
- handle note type changes in the backend. Multiple operations can now
be performed in one go, but this is not currently exposed in the GUI.
- extra methods to grab sorted note type names quickly, and fetch by
name
- col.models.save() without a provided notetype is now a no-op
- note loading/saving handled in the backend
- notes with no valid cards can now be added
- templates can now be deleted even if they would previously
orphan notes
a number of fixmes have been left in notes.py and models.py
Disabled for now; when enabled it will allow faster collection
open and close in the normal case, while continuing to downgrade
when exporting or doing a full sync.
Also, when downgrading is disabled, the journal mode is no longer
changed back to delete.
This change would help me simplify the code of
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1983204951
It would allow my exporter to use the code of AnkiExporter while
selecting which decks I export, instead of exporting all decks as I
was doing until today. (I never realized I was exporting all deck
actually, until someone sent me a bug report)
This allows us to add a docstring to .append() so users can see
the names of the arguments that are being passed, and means we
don't have to remember to prepend run_ when calling a hook.
