Problem: In `automerge::query::Index::change_vis` we use `-=` to
subtract the width of an operation which is being hidden from the text
widths which we store on the index of each node in the optree. This
index represents the width of all the visible text operations in this
node and below. This was causing an integer underflow error when
encountering some list operations. More specifically, when a
`ScalarValue::Str` in a list was made invisible by a later operation
which contained a _shorter_ string, the width subtracted from the indexed
text widths could be longer than the current index.
Solution: use `saturating_sub` instead. This is technically papering
over the problem because really the width should never go below zero,
but the text widths are only relevant for text objects where the
existing logic works as advertised because we don't have a `set`
operation for text indices. A more robust solution would be to track the
type of the Index (and consequently of the `OpTree`) at the type level,
but time is limited and problems are infinite.
Also, add a lengthy description of the reason we are using
`saturating_sub` so that when I read it in about a month I don't have
to redo the painful debugging process that got me to this commit.
Before this change numbits_i64() was incorrect for every value of the
form 0 - 2^x. This only manifested in a visible error if x%7 == 6 (so
for -64, -8192, etc.) at which point `lebsize` would return a value one
too large, causing a panic in commit().
Problem: the `OpSet::export_key` method uses `query::ElemIdPos` to
determine the index of sequence elements when exporting a key. This
query returned `None` for invisible elements. The `Parents` iterator
which is used to generate paths to objects in patches in
`automerge-wasm` used `export_key`. The end result is that applying a
remote change which deletes an object in a sequence would panic as it
tries to generate a path for an invisible object.
Solution: modify `query::ElemIdPos` to include invisible objects. This
does mean that the path generated will refer to the previous visible
object in the sequence as it's index, but this is probably fine as for
an invisible object the path shouldn't be used anyway.
While we're here also change the return value of `OpSet::export_key` to
an `Option` and make `query::Index::ops` private as obeisance to the
Lady of the Golden Blade.
The `ExId` structure has some internal details which make lookups for
object IDs which were produced by the document doing the looking up
faster. These internal details are quite specific to the implementation
so we don't want to expose them as a public API. On the other hand, we
need to be able to serialize `ExId`s so that FFI clients can hold on to
them without referencing memory which is owned by the document (ahem,
looking at you Java).
Introduce `ExId::to_bytes` and `TryFrom<&[u8]> ExId` implementing a
canonical serialization which includes a version tag, giveing us
compatibility options if we decide to change the implementation.
In #480 we fixed an issue where `SeekOp` calculated an incorrect
insertion index on optrees where the only visible ops were on internal
nodes. We forgot to port this fix to `SeekOpWithPatch`, which has almost
the same logic just with additional work done in order to notify an
`OpObserver` of changes. Add a test and fix to `SeekOpWithPatch`
The release action we are working conditionally executes based on the
version of `automerge-wasm` in the previous commit. We need to trigger
it even though the version has not changed so we roll back the version
in this commit and the commit immediately following this will bump it
again.
The wasm codebase assumed that clients want to represent text as a
string of characters. This is faster, but in order to enable backwards
compatibility we add a `TextRepresentation` argument to
`automerge_wasm::Automerge::new` to allow clients to choose between a
`string` or `Array<any>` representation. The `automerge_wasm::Observer`
will consult this setting to determine what kind of diffs to generate.
The tsconfig.json was setup to not include the JS tests. Update the
config to include the tests when checking typescript and fix all the
consequent errors. None of this is semantically meaningful _except_ for
a few incorrect usages of the API which were leading to flaky tests.
Hooray for types!
The `SeekOp` query can produce incorrect results when the optree it is
searching only has visible ops on the internal nodes. Add some tests to
demonstrate the issue as well as a fix.
This is primarily useful when debugging documents which have been
corrupted somehow so you would like to see the ops even if you can't
trust them. Note that this is _not_ currently useful for performance
reasons as the hash graph is still constructed, just not verified.
Automerge CLI depends transitively (via and old version of `clap` and
via `colored_json` on `atty` and `ansi_term`. These crates are both
marked as unmaintained and this generates irritating `cargo deny`
messages. To avoid this, implement colored JSON ourselves using the
`termcolor` crate - colored JSON is pretty mechanical. Also update
criterion and cbindgen dependencies and ignore the criterion tree in
deny.toml as we only ever use it in benchmarks.
All that's left now is a warning about atty in cbindgen, we'll just have
to wait for cbindgen to fix that, it's a build time dependency anyway so
it's not really an issue.
* Don't panic on invalid gzip stream
Before this change automerge-rs would panic if the gzip data in
a raw column was invalid; after this change the error is propagated
to the caller correctly.
* Use AMbyteSpan for byte values
Before this change there was an inconsistency between AMmapPutString
(which took an AMbyteSpan) and AMmapPutBytes (which took a pointer +
length).
Either is fine, but we should do the same in both places. I chose this
path to make it clear that the value passed in was an automerge value,
and to be symmetric with AMvalue.bytes when you do an AMmapGet().
I did not update other APIs (like load) that take a pointer + length, as
that is idiomatic usage for C, and these functions are not operating on
byte values stored in automerge.
* More detailed instructions in README
I struggled to get the project to build for a while when first getting
started, so have added some instructions; and also some usage
instructions for automerge-c that show more clearly what is happening
without `AMpush()`
The error messages produced by various conversions in `automerge-wasm`
were quite uninformative - often consisting of just returning the
offending value with no description of the problem. The logic of these
error messages was often hard to trace due to the use of `JsValue` to
represent both error conditions and valid values - evidenced by most of
the public functions of `automerge-wasm` having return types of
`Result<JsValue, JsValue>`. Change these return types to mention
specific errors, thus enlisting the compilers help in ensuring that
specific error messages are emitted.
Transactions with no ops in them are generally undesirable. They take up
space in the change log but do nothing else. They are not useless
though, it may occasionally be necessary to create an empty change in
order to list all the current heads of the document as dependents of the
empty change.
The current API makes no distinction between empty changes and non-empty
changes. If the user calls `Transaction::commit` a change is created
regardless of whether there are ops to commit. To provide a more useful
API modify `commit` so that if there is a no-op transaction then no
changes are created, but provide explicit methods to create an empty
change via `Transaction::empty_change`, `Automerge::empty_change` and
`Autocommit::empty_change`. Also make these APIs available in Javascript
and C.
It's tricky to modify these structs with the fields public as every
change requires scanning the codebase for references to make sure you're
not breaking any invariants. Make the fields private to ease
development.
Sometimes it is necessary to query the heads of a document at the time a
transaction started without having a mutable reference to the
transactable. Add `Transactable::base_heads` to do this.
The API of Automerge::generate_sync_message requires that the user keep
track of in flight messages themselves if they want to avoid sending
duplicate messages. To avoid this add a flag to `automerge::sync::State`
to track if there are any in flight messages and return `None` from
`generate_sync_message` if there are.
Generating patches to text objects (a la the edit-trace benchmark) was
very slow due to appending to the back of a Vec. Use the SequenceTree
(effectively a B-tree) instead so as to speed up sequence patch
generation.
The assert_doc and assert_obj macros in automerge/tests::helpers are
useful for writing tests for any application working with automerge
documents. Typically however, you only want these utilities in tests so
rather than packaging them in the main `automerge` crate move them to a
new crate (in the spirit of `tokio_test`)
Sometimes you need a cheap copy of a document at a given set of heads
just so you can see what has changed. Cloning the document to do this is
quite expensive when you don't need a writable copy. Add automerge.view
to allow a cheap read only copy of a document at a given set of heads
and add an additional heads argument to clone for when you do want a
writable copy.
After some discussion with PVH I realise that the repo structure in the
last reorg was very rust-centric. In an attempt to put each language on
a level footing move the rust code and project files into ./rust
