- 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.
- split new card fetch order and subsequent sort order; use latter
when building queues
- default to spacing siblings when burying is off, with options to
show each sibling in turn, and shuffle the fetched cards
- 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
Older translations will note have the $notetype variable, but that is
not an error in Fluent - it would only cause problems if we tried to
use the new string on older Anki versions.
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.
- Introduced a new transact() method that wraps the return value
in a separate struct that describes the changes that were made.
- Changes are now gathered from the undo log, so we don't need to
guess at what was changed - eg if update_note() is called with identical
note contents, no changes are returned. Card changes will only be set
if cards were actually generated by the update_note() call, and tag
will only be set if a new tag was added.
- mw.perform_op() has been updated to expect the op to return the changes,
or a structure with the changes in it, and it will use them to fire the
change hook, instead of fetching the changes from undo_status(), so there
is no risk of race conditions.
- the various calls to mw.perform_op() have been split into separate
files like card_ops.py. Aside from making the code cleaner, this works
around a rather annoying issue with mypy. Because we run it with
no_strict_optional, mypy is happy to accept an operation that returns None,
despite the type signature saying it requires changes to be returned.
Turning no_strict_optional on for the whole codebase is not practical
at the moment, but we can enable it for individual files.
Still todo:
- The cursor keeps moving back to the start of a field when typing -
we need to ignore the refresh hook when we are the initiator.
- The busy cursor icon should probably be delayed a few hundreds ms.
- Still need to think about a nicer way of handling saveNow()
- op_made_changes(), op_affects_study_queue() might be better embedded
as properties in the object instead
This correct the probably rare bug as follow:
I got a note type with a field whose name is "\".
When I made any change to this note type, even unrelated, I get a message stating that there is an empty field. This is
strange because I can see it to be false. Investigating show that "\" is normalized to empty field. This ensure that
it's shown
The existing code was really difficult to reason about:
- The default notetype depended on the selected deck, and vice versa,
and this logic was buried in the deck and notetype choosing screens,
and models.py.
- Changes to the notetype were not passed back directly, but were fired
via a hook, which changed any screen in the app that had a notetype
selector.
It also wasn't great for performance, as the most recent deck and tags
were embedded in the notetype, which can be expensive to save and sync
for large notetypes.
To address these points:
- The current deck for a notetype, and notetype for a deck, are now
stored in separate config variables, instead of directly in the deck
or notetype. These are cheap to read and write, and we'll be able to
sync them individually in the future once config syncing is updated in
the future. I seem to recall some users not wanting the tag saving
behaviour, so I've dropped that for now, but if people end up missing
it, it would be simple to add as an extra auxiliary config variable.
- The logic for getting the starting deck and notetype has been moved
into the backend. It should be the same as the older Python code, with
one exception: when "change deck depending on notetype" is enabled in
the preferences, it will start with the current notetype ("curModel"),
instead of first trying to get a deck-specific notetype.
- ModelChooser has been duplicated into notetypechooser.py, and it
has been updated to solely be concerned with keeping track of a selected
notetype - it no longer alters global state.
- fetch sfld and csum when fetching notes, to make it cheaper
to write them back out unmodified
- make `fields` private, and access it via accessors, so we can
still catch when fields have been mutated without calling
prepare_for_update()
- fix python importing code passing a string in as the checksum
- Rework V2 upgrade so that it no longer resets cards in learning,
or empties filtered decks.
- V1 users will receive a message at the top of the deck list
encouraging them to upgrade, and they can upgrade directly from that
screen.
- The setting in the preferences screen has been removed, so users
will need to use an older Anki version if they wish to switch back to
V1.
- Prevent V2 exports with scheduling from being importable into a V1
collection - the code was previously allowing this when it shouldn't
have been.
- New collections still default to v1 at the moment.
Also add helper to get map of decks and deck configs, as there were
a few places in the codebase where that was required.
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
Typically caused by older clients, but could happen if the user added
the same name on different devices without syncing.
Also add an inactive test that was used to try track down this issue
and might be useful in the future.
