- max_instances renamed to max_running
- consider_args parameter:
if True, $max_running of this function with the same arguments can be
running, else:
$max_running of this function, no matter the arguments, can be running
- discard_if_max_running:
if True and there are already the maximum possible number of running
functions running, cancel this task (previous default behavior), else:
Wait for a spot to be free before running
- Application and Engine will be started by __init__.run() independently
- Exiting app will disconnect clients
- Signals like SIGINT (Ctrl-C) are now handled for proper exit
- Standardized capitalization for variables and file names everywhere in
QML and JS, get rid of mixed camelCase/snakeCase,
use camelCase like everywhere in Qt
- ListModel items are now stored and returned as real QObjects with
PyQt properties and signals.
This makes dynamic property binding a lot easier and eliminates the need
for many hacks.
- New update(), updateOrAppendWhere() methods and roles property
for ListModel
- RoomHeader now properly updates when the room title or topic changes
- Add Backend.pdb(), to make it easier to start the debugger from QML
@futurize() is now called with parentheses and can take a max_instances
int argument. This is used for setTypingState to not have more than one
queued calls per room and True/False state and avoids bombing the server
with old ephemeral events after a network loss and reconnection.
- Move HTTP connect/disconnect logic to networkManager
- If a talk fails due to socket error, HTTP transport error or
nio bad response that might change, retry every 2s until success
- Clean up some leftover debug prints
For any name not found in rooms data, rely on new
nio.HttpClient.get_displayname() function to get and cache it,
e.g. for our own name if no room is joined and past events from users
who left the room.
@futurize now returns PyQtFuture objects, wrapper for the
concurrent.futures.Future objects that can be used from QML,
to ensure name retrieval does not block the GUI.
- Trigger when room is shown if there's not enough messages to fill the
list height
- Trigger whenever user is scrolling before a certain point, instead of
when dragging is released/scrolling stopped and the top edge is hit
- Prevent multiple load requests at same time
- Keep a set of fully loaded rooms, don't request anymore history
if a room is fully loaded
- Fix roomList height again, now based on model.count().
All delegates are assumed to be the same height
- Properly update room list when a room is joined or left
- Catch exceptions happening in threads (futures), which previously
passed silently
- Show "Empty room?" as "<i>Empty Room</i>" + gray [?] avatar
To make the models update correctly in QML:
- ListModel and _QtModel merged
- Return a ListModelMap QObject from properties instead of
a DefaultDict → QVariantMap
