During the recent SourceForge migration, the TerraSync server hosted
there used to send .dirindex files with the following contents:
Project web is currently offline pending the final migration of its
data to our new datacenter.
Make sure terrasync.py aborts with a user-understandable error in such a
case.
Due to some misleading 'url' variable name, network error messages used
to contain things such as '/scenery/Airports/N/E/4/.dirindex' (i.e., the
path on the server) instead of the full URL. For the same reason, the
callback function of HTTPGetCallback objects was passed this
path-on-server instead of the URL. This should all be fixed now.
Option --only-subdir allows one to restrict terrasync.py processing[1]
to a chosen subdirectory of the TerraSync repository. Example:
terrasync.py --target=/your/TerraSync/repo --only-subdir="Airports/L/F/P"
[1] This works in both 'check' and 'sync' modes.
Add classes VirtualPath and MutableVirtualPath (the latter derived from
the former) to manipulate slash-separated paths where the root '/'
represents the TerraScenery root. This makes it clear what a function
expects when you see that one of its arguments is a VirtualPath
instance: you don't have to ask yourself whether it can start or end
with a slash, how to interpret it, etc. Operating on these paths is also
easy[1], be it to assemble URLs in order to retrieve files or to join
their relative part with a local directory path in order to obtain a
real (deeper) local path.
VirtualPath and MutableVirtualPath are essentially the same; the former
is hashable and therefore has to be immutable, whereas the latter can be
modified in-place with the /= operator (used to append path components),
and therefore can't be hashable. As a consequence, MutableVirtualPath
instances can't be used as dictionary keys, elements of a set or
frozenset, etc.
VirtualPath and MutableVirtualPath use the pathlib.PurePath API where
applicable (part of this API has been implemented in
[Mutable]VirtualPath; more can be added, of course). These classes have
no assumptions related to TerraSync and thus should be fit for use in
other projects.
To convert a [Mutable]VirtualPath instance to a string, just use str()
on it. The result is guaranteed to start with a '/' and not to end with
a '/', except for the virtual root '/'. Upon construction, the given
string is interpreted relatively to the virtual root, i.e.:
VirtualPath("") == VirtualPath("/")
VirtualPath("abc/def/ghi") == VirtualPath("/abc/def/ghi")
etc.
VirtualPath and MutableVirtualPath instances sort like the respective
strings str() converts them too. The __hash__() method of VirtualPath is
based on the type and this string representation, too. Such objects can
only compare equal (using ==) if they have the same type. If you want to
compare the underlying virtual paths inside a VirtualPath and a
MutableVirtualPath, use the samePath() method of either class.
For more info, see scripts/python/TerraSync/terrasync/virtual_path.py
and unit tests in scripts/python/TerraSync/tests/test_virtual_path.py.
[1] Most useful is the / operator, which works as for SGPath:
VirtualPath("/abc/def/ghi") == VirtualPath("/abc") / "def" / "ghi"
VirtualPath("/abc/def/ghi") == VirtualPath("/abc") / "def/ghi"
- New directory scripts/python/TerraSync/terrasync.
- Move scripts/python/terrasync.py to
scripts/python/TerraSync/terrasync/main.py (main module in the new
structure).
- Add empty __init__.py file to scripts/python/TerraSync/terrasync/ to
make this directory a Python package.
- Wrap the main code from previous terrasync.py in a main() function of
the terrasync.main module. Also move command-line arguments parsing to
a separate parseCommandLine() function.
- Add an executable script scripts/python/TerraSync/terrasync.py for end
users, that just calls terrasync.main.main().
For end users, the only difference is that they now have to use
scripts/python/TerraSync/terrasync.py instead of
scripts/python/terrasync.py (which doesn't exist anymore, since all this
lives under the scripts/python/TerraSync directory from now on).
This structure will allow to cleanly split the code into modules and to
add unit tests.
