Python's regex engine performs pathologically on regexes like
'<!--.*?-->' when fed a large string of repeating '<!--' clauses.
Thanks to JaimeSlome / security@huntr.dev for the report; closes#1380.
Solved by switching to the Rust implementation, which does not suffer
from this issue.
entsToText(), minimizeHTML(), and the old regex constants have been
removed; they do not appear to be used by any add-ons.
Matches should arrive in alphabetical order. Currently results are not
capped (JS should be able to handle ~1k tags without too much hassle),
and no reordering based on match location is done. Matches are substring
based, and multiple can be provided, eg "foo::bar" will match
"foof::baz::abbar".
This is not hooked up properly on the frontend at the moment -
updateSuggestions() seems to be missing the most recently typed character,
and is not updating the list of completions half the time.
Interday learning cards are now counted in the learning count again,
and are no longer subject to the daily review limit.
The thinking behind the original change was that interday learning cards
are scheduled more like reviews, and counting them in the review count
would allow the learning count to focus on intraday learning - the red
number reflecting the fact that they are the most fragile memories. And
counting them together made it practical to apply the review limit
to both at once.
Since the release, there have been a number of users expecting to see
interday learning cards included in the learning count (the latest being
https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/feedback-and-a-feature-adjustment-request-for-2-1-45/12308),
and a good argument can be made for that too - they are, after all, listed
in the learning steps, and do tend to be harder than reviews. Short of
introducing another count to keep track of interday and intraday learning
separately, moving back to the old behaviour seems like the best move.
This also means it is not really practical to apply the review limit to
interday learning cards anymore, as the limit would be split between two
different numbers, and how much each number is capped would depend on
the order cards are introduced. The scheduler could figure this out, but
the deck list code does not know card order, and would need significant
changes to be able to produce numbers that matched the scheduler. And
even if we ignore implementation complexities, I think it would be more
difficult for users to reason about - the influence of the review limit
on new cards is confusing enough as it is.
This was flawed - while non-Latin text is now acceptable
in an IRI, we still need to be concerned with reserved characters
such as spaces, and Anki unfortunately has been storing the filenames
in unencoded form in the DB, meaning we must encode them at display
time. We won't be able to move away from this until existing notes
are rewritten, and it will probably require breaking compatibility with
older clients.

This reverts commit b21af06d75.
Will allow importing the Protobuf without pulling in the rest of
the library. This is not a full PEP420 namespace, and the wheel still
bundles everything - it just makes things easier in a Bazel workspace.
I originally tried with PEP420, but it required more invasive changes,
and I ran into issues with mypy.
In order to split backend.proto into a more manageable size, the protobuf
handling needed to be updated. This took more time than I would have
liked, as each language handles protobuf differently:
- The Python Protobuf code ignores "package" directives, and relies
solely on how the files are laid out on disk. While it would have been
nice to keep the generated files in a private subpackage, Protobuf gets
confused if the files are located in a location that does not match
their original .proto layout, so the old approach of storing them in
_backend/ will not work. They now clutter up pylib/anki instead. I'm
rather annoyed by that, but alternatives seem to be having to add an extra
level to the Protobuf path, making the other languages suffer, or trying
to hack around the issue by munging sys.modules.
- Protobufjs fails to expose packages if they don't start with a capital
letter, despite the fact that lowercase packages are the norm in most
languages :-( This required a patch to fix.
- Rust was the easiest, as Prost is relatively straightforward compared
to Google's tools.
The Protobuf files are now stored in /proto/anki, with a separate package
for each file. I've split backend.proto into a few files as a test, but
the majority of that work is still to come.
The Python Protobuf building is a bit of a hack at the moment, hard-coding
"proto" as the top level folder, but it seems to get the job done for now.
Also changed the workspace name, as there seems to be a number of Bazel
repos moving away from the more awkward reverse DNS naming style.
Back in the WebKit days, images with Unicode filenames would fail to
appear if they weren't percent-escaped. This no longer seems to be the
case - with this patch, images appear correctly on the Mac and Windows
platforms I tested with.

An example of how we can start migrating the codebase to PEP8:
- enable invalid-name at the top
- use bazel run pylib:pylint to identify names that need renaming
- use PyCharm or similar to rename the functions/variables
- in the cases where the conversion is not just snake_case, use
.register_deprecated_aliases()
+ removed the __repr__() definition, it dumps all the note content
and obscures the error message
mypy's move to external types-* packages is a PITA, as it requires them
to be installed in site-packages, and provides no way to specify a custom
site-packages folder, necessitating extra scripts to mock the
site-packages path, and copy+rename the stub packages into a separate
folder.
- changes can now be undone
- the same field can now be mapped to multiple target fields, allowing
fields to be cloned
- the old Qt dialog has been removed
- the old col.models.change() API calls the new code, to avoid
breaking existing consumers. It requires the field map to always
be passed in, but that appears to have been the common case.
- closes#1175
The hard limit from sqlite may be larger, but things slow down as more
tags are selected.
https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/unable-to-create-custom-test/10467
There are a number of things that could be improved here:
- we should show a live count so users are aware of the limit
- we should be filling in the parent tags when they're not explicitly
listed on a card
- we should reconsider disabling the 'tags to include' by default
It may make sense to defer these changes until we can move this screen
into Svelte/handle the processing in the backend.
Like the previous change, avoid exposing the protobuf as a public API
for now. It requires more thought, and is probably better done with
either extra helper accessors like decks.name(), or via a native class.
This could potentially help us avoid having to refetch the notetype
during study in the future, though updates to Note initialization and
the LaTeX handling would be required first.
Also:
- fix issues where the Undo action in the Browse screen was not
consistent with the main window. The existing hook signature has been
changed; from a snapshot of the add-on code from a few months ago, it
was not a hook that was being used by anyone.
- change the undo shortcut in the Browse window to match the main
window. It was different because undoing a change in the editing area
could accidentally trigger an undo of an operation, but the damage is
limited now that (most) operations can be redone. If it still proves to
be a problem, perhaps we should just always swallow ctrl+z when an
editing field is focused.
- Daily limits are no longer inherited - each deck limits its own
cards, and the selected deck enforces a maximum limit.
- Fetching of review cards now uses a single query, and sorts in advance.
In collections with a large number of overdue cards and decks, this is
faster than iterating over each deck in turn.
- Include interday learning count in review count & review limit, and
allow them to be buried.
- Warn when parent review limit is lower than child deck in deck options.
- Cap the new card limit to the review limit.
- Add option to control whether new card fetching short-circuits.
Avoids duplicate work, and is a step towards allowing the next
states to be modified by third-party code.
Also:
- fixed incorrect underlined count, due to reviews being labeled as
learning cards
- fixed reviewer not refreshing when undoing a test review, by splitting
up backend queue rebuilding from frontend reviewer refresh
- moved answering into a CollectionOp
The explicit flush was clearing undo history, and the hook will need
re-working to support propagating OpChanges correctly. It will likely
come back as a GUI hook, instead of one in pylib.
Allows add-on authors to define their own label for a group of undoable
operations. For example:
def mark_and_bury(
*,
parent: QWidget,
card_id: CardId,
) -> CollectionOp[OpChanges]:
def op(col: Collection) -> OpChanges:
target = col.add_custom_undo_entry("Mark and Bury")
col.sched.bury_cards([card_id])
card = col.get_card(card_id)
col.tags.bulk_add(note_ids=[card.nid], tags="marked")
return col.merge_undo_entries(target)
return CollectionOp(parent, op)
The .add_custom_undo_entry() is for adding your own custom actions.
When extending a standard Anki action, instead store `target =
col.undo_status().last_step` after executing the standard operation.
This started out as a bigger refactor that required a separate
.commit_undoable() call to be run after each operation, instead of
having each operation return changes directly. But that proved to be
somewhat cumbersome in unit tests, and ran the risk of unexpected
behaviour if the caller invoked an operation without remembering to
finalize it.
- backend now updates current notetype as part of addition
- frontend no longer implicitly adds, so we can assign a new name and
add in a single operation
Instead, fetch the config order on the frontend and pass a builtin
variant into the backend.
That makes the following unnecessary:
* Resolving the config sort in search/mod.rs
* Deserializing the Column enum
* Config accessors for the sort columns
* Remove duplicate backend columns
* Remove duplicate column routines
* Move columns on frontend from state to model
* Generate available columns from Colum enum
* Add second column label for notes mode
- make sure we set flag in changes when config var changed
- move current deck get/set into backend
- set_config() now returns a bool indicating whether a change was
made, so other operations can be gated off it
- active decks generation is deferred until sched.reset()
remove_note() now returns the count of removed cards, allowing us
to unify the tooltip between browser and review screen
I've left the old translation in - we'll need to write a script at
one point that gathers all references to translations in the code,
and shows ones that are unused.
- pass the handler directly
- reviewer special-cases for flags and notes are now applied at
call site
- drop the kind attribute on OpChanges which is not needed
Updating a deck via protobuf is now exposed on the backend, but not
currently on the frontend - I suspect we'll be better off writing
separate routines for the actions we need instead, and we get a better
undo description for free.
This is currently causing an ugly redraw in the browse screen, which
will need fixing.
- use strum to generate an iterator for the protobuf enum so we don't
forget to add new labels if extending in the future
- no add-ons appear to be using dynOrderLabels(), so it has been removed
@RumovZ perhaps a similar approach might work for listing the available
browser columns as well?
I18n is not set up at init time, so the strings can't be generated
at import.
@kelciour you have a few importing add-ons, so wanted to give you a
heads-up. The importing code is likely to change more in
future months, but for now this should be the only change
Instead of generating a fluent.proto file with a giant enum, create
a .json file representing the translations that downstream consumers
can use for code generation.
This enables the generation of a separate method for each translation,
with a docstring that shows the actual text, and any required arguments
listed in the function signature.
The codebase is still using the old enum for now; updating it will need
to come in future commits, and the old enum will need to be kept
around, as add-ons are referencing it.
Other changes:
- move translation code into a separate crate
- store the translations on a per-file/module basis, which will allow
us to avoid sending 1000+ strings on each JS page load in the future
- drop the undocumented support for external .ftl files, that we weren't
using
- duplicate strings in translation files are now checked for at build
time
- fix i18n test failing when run outside Bazel
- drop slog dependency in i18n module
- 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
- QueueConfig is only used by the scheduler
- DeckConfig was being used in places that Config should have been used
- Add "Dict" to the name so that the bare name is free for use with a
stronger type.
Now behaves the same way as standard find&replace:
- Will match substrings
- Regexs can be used to match multiple items; we no longer split
input on spaces.
- The find&replace dialog has been updated to add tags to the field
list.
We were (ab)using the bulk update routine to do deletions, but that
code was really intended to be used for finding&replacing, where an
exact match is not a requirement.
- clear_unused_tags() is now undoable, and returns the number of removed
notes
- add a new mw.query_op() helper for immutable queries
- decouple "freeze/unfreeze ui state" hooks from the "interface update
required" hook, so that the former is fired even on error, and can be
made re-entrant
- use a 'block_updates' flag in Python, instead of setUpdatesEnabled(),
as the latter has the side-effect of preventing child windows like
tooltips from appearing, and forces a full redrawn when updates are
enabled again. The new behaviour leads to the card list blanking out
when a long-running op is running, but in the future if we cache the
cell values we can just display them from the cache instead.
- we were indiscriminately saving the note with saveNow(), due to the
call to saveTags(). Changed so that it only saves when the tags field
is focused.
- drain the "on_done" queue on main before launching a new background
task, to lower the chances of something in on_done making a small query
to the DB and hanging until a long op finishes
- the duplicate check in the editor was executed after the webview loads,
leading to it hanging until the sidebar finishes loading. Run it at
set_note() time instead, so that the editor loads first.
- don't throw an error when a long-running op started with with_progress()
finishes after the window it was launched from has closed
- don't throw an error when the browser is closed before the sidebar
has finished loading
