Change parameters to use only default_from for dynamic default values.

2012-03-28T12:04:31+00:00

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.

Only split CSV in the client, quote instead of escaping

2012-03-21T00:03:54+00:00

Splitting on commas is not an idempotent operation:
'a,b\,c' -> ('a', 'b,c') -> ('a', 'b', 'c')

That means we can't do it when the call is forwarded, so this is only
done on the CLI. The UI already sends values as a tuple.

Replace escaping in the csv parser with quoting. Quoted strings can have
embedded commas instead of having to escape them. This prevents the csv
parser from eating all escape characters.

Also, document Param's csv arguments, and update tests.

Replace float with Decimal

2012-01-20T07:13:44+00:00

Having float type as a base type for floating point parameters in
ipalib introduces several issues, e.g. problem with representation
or value comparison. Python language provides a Decimal type which
help overcome these issues.

This patch replaces a float type and Float parameter with a
decimal.Decimal type in Decimal parameter. A precision attribute
was added to Decimal parameter that can be used to limit a number
of decimal places in parameter representation. This approach fixes
a problem with API.txt validation where comparison of float values
may fail on different architectures due to float representation error.

In order to safely transfer the parameter value over RPC it is
being converted to string which is then converted back to
decimal.Decimal number on a server side.

Parse comma-separated lists of values in all parameter types. This can be enabled for a specific parameter by setting the "csv" option to True.

2011-11-30T16:08:35+00:00

Remove "List" parameter type and replace all occurences of it with appropriate
multi-valued parameter ("Str" in most cases) with csv enabled.

Add new parameter type "Any", capable of holding values of any type. This is
needed by the "batch" command, as "Str" is not suitable type for the "methods"
parameter.

ticket 2007

Fix message in test case for checking minimum values

2011-07-28T06:03:56+00:00

Set a default minimum value for class Int, handle long values better.

2011-07-20T00:32:00+00:00

Allow a long to get as far as the min/max constraints where we can
compare it to min/max int values and reject with a proper error message.

Fix i18n related failures in unit tests.

2011-03-01T15:31:41+00:00

Convert json strings to unicode when they are unmarshalled.

2011-02-11T18:36:15+00:00

This patch removes some individual work-arounds of converting strings
to unicode, they only masked the problem. String values are not
passed to the validator or normalizers so things like adding the
realm automatically to services weren't happening.

ticket 941

Fix failed tests. API for utcoffset changed and strings are more robust.

2011-01-24T19:34:38+00:00

In Python 2.7 the API for time.utcoffset() changed.

We do more automatic conversions of strings so need to loosen the tests
a bit.

Change FreeIPA license to GPLv3+

2010-12-20T22:19:53+00:00

The changes include:
 * Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only
 * Add GPLv3+ license text
 * Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones)
   mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think
