* Add the version option to all CommandsPetr Viktorin2013-02-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several Commands were missing the 'version' option. Add it to those that were missing it. Do not remove the version option before calling commands. This means methods such as execute(), forward(), run() receive it. Several of these needed `**options` added to their signatures. Commands in the Cert plugin passed any unknown options to the underlying functions, these are changed to pass what's needed explicitly. Some commands in DNS and Batch plugins now pass version to commands they call. When the option is not given, fill it in automatically. (In a subsequent commit, a warning will be added in this case). Note that the public API did not change: all RPC calls already accepted a version option. There's no need for an API version bump (even though API.txt changes substantially).

* Internationalization for public errorsPetr Viktorin2012-09-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we throw many public exceptions without proper i18n. Wrap natural-language error messages in _() so they can be translated. In the service plugin, raise NotFound errors using handle_not_found helper so the error message contains the offending service. Use ScriptError instead of NotFoundError in bindinstance install. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1953
* Use DN objects instead of stringsJohn Dennis2012-08-121-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Convert every string specifying a DN into a DN object * Every place a dn was manipulated in some fashion it was replaced by the use of DN operators * Add new DNParam parameter type for parameters which are DN's * DN objects are used 100% of the time throughout the entire data pipeline whenever something is logically a dn. * Many classes now enforce DN usage for their attributes which are dn's. This is implmented via ipautil.dn_attribute_property(). The only permitted types for a class attribute specified to be a DN are either None or a DN object. * Require that every place a dn is used it must be a DN object. This translates into lot of:: assert isinstance(dn, DN) sprinkled through out the code. Maintaining these asserts is valuable to preserve DN type enforcement. The asserts can be disabled in production. The goal of 100% DN usage 100% of the time has been realized, these asserts are meant to preserve that. The asserts also proved valuable in detecting functions which did not obey their function signatures, such as the baseldap pre and post callbacks. * Moved ipalib.dn to ipapython.dn because DN class is shared with all components, not just the server which uses ipalib. * All API's now accept DN's natively, no need to convert to str (or unicode). * Removed ipalib.encoder and encode/decode decorators. Type conversion is now explicitly performed in each IPASimpleLDAPObject method which emulates a ldap.SimpleLDAPObject method. * Entity & Entry classes now utilize DN's * Removed __getattr__ in Entity & Entity clases. There were two problems with it. It presented synthetic Python object attributes based on the current LDAP data it contained. There is no way to validate synthetic attributes using code checkers, you can't search the code to find LDAP attribute accesses (because synthetic attriutes look like Python attributes instead of LDAP data) and error handling is circumscribed. Secondly __getattr__ was hiding Python internal methods which broke class semantics. * Replace use of methods inherited from ldap.SimpleLDAPObject via IPAdmin class with IPAdmin methods. Directly using inherited methods was causing us to bypass IPA logic. Mostly this meant replacing the use of search_s() with getEntry() or getList(). Similarly direct access of the LDAP data in classes using IPAdmin were replaced with calls to getValue() or getValues(). * Objects returned by ldap2.find_entries() are now compatible with either the python-ldap access methodology or the Entity/Entry access methodology. * All ldap operations now funnel through the common IPASimpleLDAPObject giving us a single location where we interface to python-ldap and perform conversions. * The above 4 modifications means we've greatly reduced the proliferation of multiple inconsistent ways to perform LDAP operations. We are well on the way to having a single API in IPA for doing LDAP (a long range goal). * All certificate subject bases are now DN's * DN objects were enhanced thusly: - find, rfind, index, rindex, replace and insert methods were added - AVA, RDN and DN classes were refactored in immutable and mutable variants, the mutable variants are EditableAVA, EditableRDN and EditableDN. By default we use the immutable variants preserving important semantics. To edit a DN cast it to an EditableDN and cast it back to DN when done editing. These issues are fully described in other documentation. - first_key_match was removed - DN equalty comparison permits comparison to a basestring * Fixed ldapupdate to work with DN's. This work included: - Enhance test_updates.py to do more checking after applying update. Add test for update_from_dict(). Convert code to use unittest classes. - Consolidated duplicate code. - Moved code which should have been in the class into the class. - Fix the handling of the 'deleteentry' update action. It's no longer necessary to supply fake attributes to make it work. Detect case where subsequent update applies a change to entry previously marked for deletetion. General clean-up and simplification of the 'deleteentry' logic. - Rewrote a couple of functions to be clearer and more Pythonic. - Added documentation on the data structure being used. - Simplfy the use of update_from_dict() * Removed all usage of get_schema() which was being called prior to accessing the .schema attribute of an object. If a class is using internal lazy loading as an optimization it's not right to require users of the interface to be aware of internal optimization's. schema is now a property and when the schema property is accessed it calls a private internal method to perform the lazy loading. * Added SchemaCache class to cache the schema's from individual servers. This was done because of the observation we talk to different LDAP servers, each of which may have it's own schema. Previously we globally cached the schema from the first server we connected to and returned that schema in all contexts. The cache includes controls to invalidate it thus forcing a schema refresh. * Schema caching is now senstive to the run time context. During install and upgrade the schema can change leading to errors due to out-of-date cached schema. The schema cache is refreshed in these contexts. * We are aware of the LDAP syntax of all LDAP attributes. Every attribute returned from an LDAP operation is passed through a central table look-up based on it's LDAP syntax. The table key is the LDAP syntax it's value is a Python callable that returns a Python object matching the LDAP syntax. There are a handful of LDAP attributes whose syntax is historically incorrect (e.g. DistguishedNames that are defined as DirectoryStrings). The table driven conversion mechanism is augmented with a table of hard coded exceptions. Currently only the following conversions occur via the table: - dn's are converted to DN objects - binary objects are converted to Python str objects (IPA convention). - everything else is converted to unicode using UTF-8 decoding (IPA convention). However, now that the table driven conversion mechanism is in place it would be trivial to do things such as converting attributes which have LDAP integer syntax into a Python integer, etc. * Expected values in the unit tests which are a DN no longer need to use lambda expressions to promote the returned value to a DN for equality comparison. The return value is automatically promoted to a DN. The lambda expressions have been removed making the code much simpler and easier to read. * Add class level logging to a number of classes which did not support logging, less need for use of root_logger. * Remove ipaserver/conn.py, it was unused. * Consolidated duplicate code wherever it was found. * Fixed many places that used string concatenation to form a new string rather than string formatting operators. This is necessary because string formatting converts it's arguments to a string prior to building the result string. You can't concatenate a string and a non-string. * Simplify logic in rename_managed plugin. Use DN operators to edit dn's. * The live version of ipa-ldap-updater did not generate a log file. The offline version did, now both do. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1670 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1671 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1672 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1673 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1674 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1392 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2872
* Change parameters to use only default_from for dynamic default values.Jan Cholasta2012-03-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Replace all occurences of create_default with equivalent default_from and remove create_default from the framework. This is needed for proper parameter validation, as there is no way to tell which parameters to validate prior to calling create_default, because create_default does not provide information about which parameters are used for generating the default value.
* Require current password when using passwd to change your own password.Rob Crittenden2011-10-041-3/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new required parameter, current_password. In order to ask this first I added a new parameter option, sortorder. The lower the value the earlier it will be prompted for. I also changed the way autofill works. It will attempt to get the default and if it doesn't get anything will continue prompting interactively. Since current_password is required I'm passing a magic value that means changing someone else's password. We need to pass something since current_password is required. The python-ldap passwd command doesn't seem to use the old password at all so I do a simple bind to validate it. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1808

* ticket 1669 - improve i18n docstring extractionJohn Dennis2011-08-241-12/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reverts the use of pygettext for i18n string extraction. It was originally introduced because the help documentation for commands are in the class docstring and module docstring. Docstrings are a Python construct whereby any string which immediately follows a class declaration, function/method declaration or appears first in a module is taken to be the documentation for that object. Python automatically assigns that string to the __doc__ variable associated with the object. Explicitly assigning to the __doc__ variable is equivalent and permitted. We mark strings in the source for i18n translation by embedding them in _() or ngettext(). Specialized extraction tools (e.g. xgettext) scan the source code looking for strings with those markers and extracts the string for inclusion in a translation catalog. It was mistakingly assumed one could not mark for translation Python docstrings. Since some docstrings are vital for our command help system some method had to be devised to extract docstrings for the translation catalog. pygettext has the ability to locate and extract docstrings and it was introduced to acquire the documentation for our commands located in module and class docstrings. However pygettext was too large a hammer for this task, it lacked any fined grained ability to extract only the docstrings we were interested in. In practice it extracted EVERY docstring in each file it was presented with. This caused a large number strings to be extracted for translation which had no reason to be translated, the string might have been internal code documentation never meant to be seen by users. Often the superfluous docstrings were long, complex and likely difficult to translate. This placed an unnecessary burden on our volunteer translators. Instead what is needed is some method to extract only those strings intended for translation. We already have such a mechanism and it is already widely used, namely wrapping strings intended for translation in calls to _() or _negettext(), i.e. marking a string for i18n translation. Thus the solution to the docstring translation problem is to mark the docstrings exactly as we have been doing, it only requires that instead of a bare Python docstring we instead assign the marked string to the __doc__ variable. Using the hypothetical class foo as an example. class foo(Command): ''' The foo command takes out the garbage. ''' Would become: class foo(Command): __doc__ = _('The foo command takes out the garbage.') But which docstrings need to be marked for translation? The makeapi tool knows how to iterate over every command in our public API. It was extended to validate every command's documentation and report if any documentation is missing or not marked for translation. That information was then used to identify each docstring in the code which needed to be transformed. In summary what this patch does is: * Remove the use of pygettext (modification to install/po/Makefile.in) * Replace every docstring with an explicit assignment to __doc__ where the rhs of the assignment is an i18n marking function. * Single line docstrings appearing in multi-line string literals (e.g. ''' or """) were replaced with single line string literals because the multi-line literals were introducing unnecessary whitespace and newlines in the string extracted for translation. For example: ''' The foo command takes out the garbage. ''' Would appear in the translation catalog as: "\n The foo command takes out the garbage.\n " The superfluous whitespace and newlines are confusing to translators and requires us to strip leading and trailing whitespace from the translation at run time. * Import statements were moved from below the docstring to above it. This was necessary because the i18n markers are imported functions and must be available before the the doc is parsed. Technically only the import of the i18n markers had to appear before the doc but stylistically it's better to keep all the imports together. * It was observed during the docstring editing process that the command documentation was inconsistent with respect to the use of periods to terminate a sentence. Some doc had a trailing period, others didn't. Consistency was enforced by adding a period to end of every docstring if one was missing.

| | | | | | | | | | | Passwords didn't have internationalizable labels. Exceptions that occured during required input weren't printed as unicode so weren't being translated properly. Don't use output_for_cli() directly in the passwd plugin, use output.Output. ticket 352
