The only place where we could return wide characters with -httpd
was the raw $INBOX_DIR/description text, which is now converted
to octets.
All daemon (HTTP/NNTP/IMAP) sockets are opened in binary mode,
so length() and bytes::length() are equivalent on reads. For
socket writes, any non-octet data would warn about wide characters
and we are strict in warnings with test_httpd.
All gzipped buffers are also octets, as is PublicInbox::Eml->body,
and anything from PerlIO objects ("git cat-file --batch" output,
filesystems), so bytes::length was unnecessary in all those places.

Using "make update-copyrights" after setting GNULIB_PATH in my

We'll use {oidx} as the common field name for the read-write
OverIdx, here, to disambiguate it from the read-only {over}
field. This hopefully makes it clearer which code paths are
read-only and which are read-write.

`->connect' is confused with the perlfunc for the `connect(2)'
syscall, and also `DBI->connect'. Since SQLite doesn't use
sockets, the word "connect" needlessly confuses me. Give
it a short name to match the field name we use for it, which
also matches the variable name used by the DBI(3pm) and
DBD::SQLite(3pm) manpages.

We no longer load or use Email::MIME outside of comparison
tests.
|
|
Instead, favor PublicInbox::MIME->new for non-attachment emails.
We may support alternatives to Email::MIME down the line.
We'll still keep Email::MIME->create to deal with attachments,
for now, but there's also a fair amount of test duplication
we should eliminate, later.
|
|
Allowing ->init_bare to be used as a method saves some
keystrokes, and we can save a little bit of time on systems with
our vfork(2)-enabled spawn().
This also sets us up for future improvements where we can
avoid spawning a process at all.
|
|
We can pass blessed PublicInbox::Smsg objects to internal
indexing APIs instead of having long parameter lists in some
places. The end goal is to avoid parsing redundant information
each step of the way and hopefully make things more
understandable.

I didn't wait until September to do it, this year!

This cuts down on lines of code in individual test cases and
fixes some misnamed error messages by using "$0" consistently.
This will also provide us with a method of swapping out
dependencies which provide equivalent functionality (e.g
"Xapian" SWIG can replace "Search::Xapian" XS bindings).
|
|
We want to be able to use run_script with *.t files, so
t/common.perl putting subs into the top-level "main" namespace
won't work. Instead, make it a module which uses Exporter
like other libraries.
|
|
We'll also introduce a tmpdir() API to give tempdirs
consistent names.

"mainrepo" ws a bad name and artifact from the early days when I
intended for there to be a "spamrepo" (now just the
ENV{PI_EMERGENCY} Maildir). With v2, "mainrepo" can be
especially confusing, since v2 needs at least two git
repositories (epoch + all.git) to function and we shouldn't
confuse users by having them point to a git repository for v2.
Much of our documentation already references "INBOX_DIR" for
command-line arguments, so use "inboxdir" as the
git-config(1)-friendly variant for that.
"mainrepo" remains supported indefinitely for compatibility.
Users may need to revert to old versions, or may be referring
to old documentation and must not be forced to change config
files to account for this change.
So if you're using "mainrepo" today, I do NOT recommend changing
it right away because other bugs can lurk.

PublicInbox::Inbox objects have minimal dependencies, so
drop code to support old tests which existed before the
PublicInbox::Inbox object came into existence.

None of the Search::Xapian-dependent stuff works without DBI
and DBD::SQLite.
There are no plans to support Xapian w/o DBD::SQLite since
SQLite is more common and less resource-intensive than Xapian.
|
|
More tests work without Search::Xapian, now.
Usability issues still need to be fixed

We were relying on Danga::Socket using the "bytes" pragma,
previously. Nowadays, the "bytes" pragma is not recommended in
general, but bytes::length remains acceptable for getting the
byte-size of a scalar.

Otherwise, walking backwards through history could mean the root
message in a thread forgets its `tid' and it prevents messages
from being looked up by it.
This bug was hidden by the fact that `sid' matches were often
good enough to link threads together.
|
|
In many cases, we do not care about the total number of
messages. It's a rather expensive operation in SQLite
(Xapian only provides an estimate).
For LKML, this brings top-level /$INBOX/ loading time from
~375ms to around 60ms on my system. Days ago, this operation
was taking 800-900ms(!) for me before introducing the SQLite
overview DB.
|
|
This ought to provide better performance and scalability
which is less dependent on inbox size. Xapian does not
seem optimized for some queries used by the WWW homepage,
Atom feeds, XOVER and NEWNEWS NNTP commands.
This can actually make Xapian optional for NNTP usage,
and allow more functionality to work without Xapian
installed.
Indexing performance was extremely bad at first, but
DBI::Profile helped me optimize away problematic queries.
|
|
Too many similar functions doing the same basic thing was
redundant and misleading, especially since Message-ID is
no longer treated as a truly unique identifier.
For displaying threads in the HTML, this makes it clear
that we favor the primary Message-ID mapped to an NNTP
article number if a message cannot be found.
|
|
We can't rely on header order for Message-ID after all
since we fall back to existing MIDs if they exist and
are unseen. This lets us use SearchMsg->mid to get the
MID we associated with the NNTP article number to ensure
all NNTP article lookups roundtrip correctly.

Using update-copyrights from gnulib
While we're at it, use the SPDX identifier for AGPL-3.0+ to
ease mechanical processing.

Due to the asynchronous nature of SMTP, it is possible for the
root message of a thread (with no References/In-Reply-To)
to arrive last in a series. We must preserve the thread_id
of the ghost message in this case, as we do when vivifiying
non-root ghosts.
Otherwise, this causes threads to be broken when the root
arrives last.
