Basic proof of concept, where the 'delete note' operation in the
reviewer has been updated to use mw.perform_op(). Instead of manually
calling .reset() afterwards, a summary of the changes is returned as
part of the undo status query, and various parts of the GUI can listen
to gui_hooks.operation_did_execute and decide whether they want to
redraw based on the scope of the changes. This should allow the sidebar
to selectively redraw just the tags area in the future for example.
Currently we're just listing out all possible areas that might be changed;
in the future we could theoretically inspect the specific changes in the
undo log to provide a more accurate report (avoiding refreshing the tags
list when no tags were added for example).
You can test it out by opening the browse screen while studying, and
then deleting the current card - the browser should update to show (deleted)
on the cards due the earlier change.
If going ahead with this, aside from updating all the screens that currently
listen for resets, some thought will be required on how we can integrate
it with legacy code that expects to called when resets are made, and expects
to call .reset() when it makes changes.
Thoughts?
Up until now, we've been forcing a new search whenever reset is called.
The primary reason was that the card list display routines did not expect
a card or note to have been removed. By updating the model to show
"(deleted)" when a card or note is missing, we no longer have to repeat
the search.
This has a few advantages:
- Searches, especially complex ones, can be slow to execute. When we
perform them after every operation like a delete, it can make Anki feel
sluggish.
- The fact that notes have been deleted becomes more obvious - some users
found it easy to miss the "deleted" pop-up in the past.
This change does not just affect deletions, as many other operations
trigger a reset as well. In the past, when using 'set due date' in the
review screen for example, it caused an ugly flicker in the browser screen,
and could be slow when the current search couldn't be quickly redone.
The disadvantage of this approach is that the displayed content may
not reflect the specified search, which has the potential to be confusing.
But if that turns out to be a problem, it could be (partly) alleviated by
displaying a refresh button next to the search bar when the search may
need to be refreshed.
Feedback welcome!
This reverts commit 994081be34, reversing
changes made to 091ea67690.
@RumoVZ this broke a bunch of operations like 'select notes' and
'set due date'. When the triggered signal is connected to a function,
PyQt looks at the function signature to decide what arguments to pass
it. The wrapper was using *args, so PyQt passes in an extra argument,
which the underlying function didn't expect.
I tried settting __signature__ on the wrapper, but PyQT seems to
ignore it, so we may either need to check all of the existing calls
and add the ignored extra arguments, or create a separate wrapper for
such cases.
This splits update_card() into separate undoable/non-undoable ops
like the change to notes in b4396b94abdeba3347d30025c5c0240d991006c9
It means that actions get a blanket 'Update Card' description - in the
future we'll probably want to either add specific actions to the backend,
or allow an enum or string to be passed in to describe the op.
Other changes:
- card.flush() can no longer be used to add new cards. Card creation
is only supposed to be done in response to changes in a note's fields,
and this functionality was only exposed because the card generation
hadn't been migrated to the backend at that point. As far as I'm aware,
only Arthur's "copy notes" add-on used this functionality, and that should
be an easy fix - when the new note is added, the associated cards will
be generated, and they can then be retrieved with note.cards()
- tidy ups/PEP8
- note.flush() behaves like before, as otherwise actions or add-ons
that perform bulk flushing would end up creating an undo entry for
each note
- added col.update_note() to opt in to the new behaviour
- tidy up the names of some related routines
Reviews and operations on the backend that support undoing can now be
committed immediately, so they will not be lost in the event of a crash.
This required tweaks to a few places:
- don't set collection mtime on save() unless changes were made in
Python, as otherwise we end up accidentally clearing the backend undo
queue
- autosave() is now run on every reset()
- garbage collection now runs in a timer, instead of relying on
autosave() to be run periodically
- SearchTerm -> SearchNode
- Operator -> Joiner; share between messages
- build_search_string() supports specifying AND/OR as a convenience
- group_searches() makes it easier to negate
The old rescheduling dialog's two options have been split into two
separate menu items, "Forget", and "Set Due Date"
For cards that are not review cards, "Set Due Date" behaves like the
old reschedule option, changing the cards into a review card, and
and setting both the interval and due date to the provided number of
days.
When "Set Due Date" is applied to a review card, it no longer resets
the card's interval. Instead, it looks at how much the provided number
of days will change the original interval, and adjusts the interval by
that amount, so that cards that are answered earlier receive a smaller
next interval, and cards that are answered after a longer delay receive
a bonus.
For example, imagine a card was answered on day 5, and given an interval
of 10 days, so it has a due date of day 15.
- if on day 10 the due date is changed to day 12 (today+2), the card
is being scheduled 3 days earlier than it was supposed to be, so the
interval will be adjusted to 7 days.
- and if on day 10 the due date is changed to day 20, the interval will
be changed from 10 days to 15 days.
There is no separate option to reset the interval of a review card, but
it can be accomplished by forgetting the card(s), and then setting the
desired due date.
Other notes:
- Added the action to the review screen as well.
- Set the shortcut to Ctrl+Shift+D, and changed the existing Delete
Tags shortcut to Ctrl+Alt+Shift+A.
While mypy can understand nested references like ConfigBool.Key.COLLAPSE_RECENT,
PyCharm doesn't understand the metaclass syntax, and shows the definitions
as invalid.
- Closes#976
- Added helper to apply arbitrary colour to an icon.
- Fix#979 - low res icons in night mode.
- The icons and colours are not perfect - please feel free to send
through a PR if you can improve them.
- Convert colors dictionary into module consts, so we can
use code completion.
- Added "Edited Today" and "Due Tomorrow"
- Rename camelCase attribute to snake_case and tweak the wording
of some enum constants. We've already broken compatibility with the
major sidebar add-ons, so we may as well make these changes while we
can.
- Removed Filter button. Currently there is no exposed way to toggle
the Sidebar off - wonder if we still need it?
That way, the caller doesn't have to hold a reference to the browser and
explicitly call it again, if it wants to search for something specific.
Also, if the browser was closed and opened for a single-card-search, it
now won't perform a redundant current-deck-search first.
When opening a dialogue accepting multiple optional arguments, relying
on position is error-prone and requires passing Nones to fill unused
parameter slots.
- anki._backend stores the protobuf files and rsbackend.py code
- pylib modules import protobuf messages directly from the
_pb2 files, and explicitly export any will be returned or consumed
by public pylib functions, so that calling code can import from pylib
- the "rsbackend" no longer imports and re-exports protobuf messages
- pylib can just consume them directly.
- move errors to errors.py
Still todo:
- rsbridge
- finishing the work on rsbackend, and check what we need to add
back to the original file location to avoid breaking add-ons
In protobuf "...enum values use C++ scoping rules, meaning that
enum values are siblings of their type, not children of it.
Therefore, [an enum variant] must be unique within [a message],
not just within [the enum.]"
So we must prefix enum variants with their enum's name, but can
also call them directly from the message namespace.
The protobuf crate is smart, though, and strips the prefixes.
(Simultaneously change some SearchTerm variant names.)
