- obsolete spaceUntil - it serves no useful purpose
- the old per-model spacing variables are obsolete, as the new approach
requires uniform spacing across all models for new cards
- introduce a new per-deck variable: newSpacing
- don't fill new queue if we've done today's cards
- still need to check cramming / review early
newSpacing is a time in seconds to delay introduction of sibling new cards.
It can be applied as many times as necessary as there is no harm in new cards
being delayed repeatedly. Because the default queue length is 200 and it can
take quite some time for the spaced cards to be placed in the queue again, we
use a separate array to track spaced new cards provided the configured delay
is less than 20 minutes. At times under 20 minutes this number is not a
guaranteed minimum spacing - if the new card queue is empty the spaced cards
will be flushed before checking the new queue again, as otherwise we end up
trying to fill on every repetition. The due counts no longer decrease by more
than one if the spacing is less than the due cutoff, since that confused some
users.
Review cards are now placed at the end of the current review queue, and will
never be rescheduled to a different day. The old approach had a number of
problems:
- the more card models you had, the more likely a card would be spaced
multiple times, resulting in you forgetting the card before you get a chance
to review it
- spacing was applied even if the due card was already late
- repeatedly failing one card over a period of days or weeks would also stave
the other cards of attention
- use bar graphs instead of line graphs for 3 months or less
- easier to read shades of blue for reps graph
- simplify day cutoff calculation
- fix off by one bug in work done data
- add missing entries when calculating cumulative due
- the local deck name must now match the online deck
- syncName is a hash of the current deck's path or None
- the hash is checked on deck load, and if it is different (because the deck
was copied or moved), syncing is disabled. This should prevent people from
accidentally clobbering their online decks
When you call operations like deleteCards(), suspendCards() and so on, it is
now necessary to call deck.reset() afterwards. This allows the calling code to
delay a reset if necessary. If the calling code calls a function that says the
caller must reset, the caller should be sure to call .reset() and fetch the
current card again. Failure to do the latter will result in answerCard()
attempting to remove the card from the queue, when the queue has been cleared.
