- 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
- mtime is tracked on each key individually, which will allow
merging of config changes when syncing in the future
- added col.(get|set|remove)_config()
- in order to support existing code that was mutating returned
values (eg col.conf["something"]["another"] = 5), the returned list/dict
will be automatically wrapped so that when the value is dropped, it
will save the mutated item back to the DB if it's changed. Code that
is fetching lists/dicts from the config like so:
col.conf["foo"]["bar"] = baz
col.setMod()
will continue to work in most case, but should be gradually updated to:
conf = col.get_config("foo")
conf["bar"] = baz
col.set_config("foo", conf)
- tag list stored in a separate DB table
- non-wildcard searches now do full unicode case folding
(eg tag:masse matches 'Maße')
- wildcard matches do simple unicode case folding
- some functions haven't been updated yet, so ascii folding will
continue to be used in some operations
The progress handling code needs a rethink, as we now have two separate
ways to flag that the media sync should abort. In the future, it may
make sense to switch to polling the backend for progress, instead of
passing a callback in.
- on collection load, the schema is upgraded to 12
- on collection close, the changes are reversed so older clients
can continue to open the collection
- in the future, we could potentially skip the reversal except
when exporting/doing a full sync
- the same approach should work for decks, note types and tags in the
future too
- the deck list code needs updating to cache the deck confs for the
life of the call
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.
Some initial testing with orjson indicates performance varies from
slightly better than pysqlite to about 2x slower depending on the type
of query.
Performance could be improved by building the Python list in rspy
instead of sending back json that needs to be decoded, but it may make
more sense to rewrite the hotspots in Rust instead. More testing is
required in any case.
committing the Protobuf implementation for posterity, but will replace
it with json, as Protobuf measures about 6x slower for some workloads
like 'select * from notes'
- avoid rounding minutes
- round the seconds taken in the card info screen
- provide different precise and imprecise modes, since we need
to display seconds to multiple decimals in some areas
- all .ftl files for a language are concatenated into a single file
at build time
- all languages are included in the binary
- external ftl files placed in the ftl folder can override the
built-in definitions
- constants are automatically generated for each string key
- dropped the separate StringsGroup enum
- drop the '5m3s' special casing done in the card stats screen, and
just use decimals
- change alignment of the review log so that the non-abbreviated
spans are easier to read
- git version pinned at the moment until the concurrency fix
lands in 0.10.2
- currently float values are hard-coded at 2 decimal places;
we should switch to using NUMBER() in the future
- Adding files inside Anki now updates the media DB, so a full file
scan at sync time is no longer required if no other changes have been
made.
- Use a protobuf message for backend initialization, and return a
string error if initialization fails.
We can now show replay buttons for the audio contained in {{FrontSide}}
without having to play it again when the answer is shown.
The template code now always defers FrontSide rendering, as it wasn't
a big saving, and meant the logic had to be implemented twice.
This simply wraps the field in extra text that the frontend will
deal with. Also added some helpers for extracting and stripping
audio and TTS tags from the rendered text.
- The front and back are rendered in one call now. If the front
side contains no custom filters, we can bake {{FrontSide}} into the
rear side. If it did contain custom filters, we return the partially
complete rear template instead, and the calling code can inject
the FrontSide in after it has been fully rendered.
- Instead of modifying "cloze" into something like "cq-2", the card
ordinal and whether we're rendering the question or answer are now
passed in to the rendering filters as context.
- The Rust code doesn't need to support filter names split on '-'
anymore.
- Drop the "Show" part of hint descriptions so i18n support can be
deferred.
- Ignore blank filter names caused by user using two colons instead
of one.
- Fixed hint field and text transposition.
This is paving the way to move the standard filters into Rust.
Non-empty fields are now determined in Rust, using a single regex
instead of the overkill stripHTMLMedia(). The old implementation
has been moved into the Pystache code for now.
This extends the existing Rust code to handle conditional
replacement. The replacement of field names and filters to text
remains in Python, so that add-ons can still define their own
field modifiers.
The code is currently running the old Pystache rendering and the
new implementation in parallel, and will print a message to the
console if they don't match. If you notice any problems, please
let me know.
