      zodbdump: Start to stabilize output format · 75c03368
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Since zodbdump start (c0a6299f "zodbdump - Tool to dump content of a
      ZODB database   (draft)") and up till now zodbdump output format was not
      good. For example user and description transaction properties were
      output without proper quoting, which in situation when there would be
      fancy characters in there would break the output.
      
      So start the format stabilization:
      
      - user and description are output as quoted, so now they are guaranteed
        to be on one line. The quoting character is always " (instead of e.g.
        smartly quoting either by ' or " as python does) for easier
        compatibility with ZODB implementations in other languages.
      
      - transaction extension is now printed as raw bytes, not as dict.
        The idea here is that `zodb dump`
      
        * should perform dump of raw data as stored inside ZODB so that later
          `zodb restore` could restore the database identically to the same state.
      
        * we should dump raw data instead of unpickled ones because generally
          on-disk extension's format can be any raw bytes and this information
          should be preserved.
      
      - transaction status is now also output as quoted to preserve line
        breakage on fancy status codes.
      
      - it is documented that sha1 is not the only allowed hash function that
        might be used.
      
      - in hashonly mode we add trailing " -" to obj string so that it is
        possible to distinguish outputs of `zodb dump` and `zodb dump -hashonly`
        without knowing a-priory the way it was produced.
      
        The reason to do so is that it would be not good to e.g. by accident
        feed hashonly output to (future) `zodb restore`, which, without having
        a way to see it should not consume object data would read following
        transaction information as raw object data with confusing later
        errors (and a small chance to restore completely different database
        without reporting error at all).
      
      Because ZODB iteration API gives us already unpickled extension and only
      that, for now to dump it as raw we get a long road to pickle it back
      also caring to try to pickle in stable order.
      
      Hopefully this will be only a fallback because of
      
      https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZODB/pull/183
      
      and next zodbtools patch.
      
      ~~~~
      
      For testing purposes (currently only quoting function unit test) py.test
      usage is introduced.
      
      The code is also generally polished here and there.

      Relicense to GPLv3+ with wide exception for all Free Software / Open Source projects + Business options.
      
      Nexedi stack is licensed under Free Software licenses with various exceptions
      that cover three business cases:
      
      - Free Software
      - Proprietary Software
      - Rebranding
      
      As long as one intends to develop Free Software based on Nexedi stack, no
      license cost is involved. Developing proprietary software based on Nexedi stack
      may require a proprietary exception license. Rebranding Nexedi stack is
      prohibited unless rebranding license is acquired.
      
      Through this licensing approach, Nexedi expects to encourage Free Software
      development without restrictions and at the same time create a framework for
      proprietary software to contribute to the long term sustainability of the
      Nexedi stack.

      zodbinfo + zodb tool + open storages by URL · db3b84ec
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Hello up there.
      
      Recently with Ivan we needed a way to obtain last transaction ID of a ZODB storage for resiliency checking. For this `zodb info` utility to print general information about a ZODB database is introduced. Along the way, as it was already planned, all zodbtools utilities are now covered by only one `zodb` command which can invoke other subcommands and show help topics. I also used the occassion to switch how storages are specified from being  ZConfig-file-always to be specified by URL e.g.
      
           neo://neo1@127.0.0.1:24573
           zeo://...
           file://...
      
      without loosing generality because zconfig:// scheme is also supported.
      
      Please find more details about all changes in individal commit messages.
      
      Thanks for feedback,  
      Kirill

      Allow internal clients to specify intended access mode - read-only or read-write · bfeb1690
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Most of our tools need only read access for working. However e.g.
      FileStorage, when opened in read-write mode, automatically creates
      database file and index.
      
      This way if database is opened in read-write mode a simple typo in path,
      e.g. to `zodb dump path` would lead to:
      
      - new database at path will be created
      - the dump will print nothing (empty database)
      - exit status will be 0 (ok) and no error will be reported.
      
      For this reason it is better tools declare access level they need so for
      read-only access request we can catch it with an error from storage.
      
      This, however, requires quite recent ZODB to work:
      
      https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZODB/pull/153
      
      P.S.
      
      We don't want to force users to always specify read-only in URLs or
      zconf files because:
      
      - this is error prone
      - URL or zconf can be though as of file
      - when a program opens a file the program, not file, declares which type
        of access it wants.
      
      That's why access mode declaration has to be internal.

      Switch to opening storages by URL · 82b06413
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Previously for specifying a storage we were requiring users to create
      zconfig file and put information about storage there. This is not always
      convenient e.g. for quickly inspecting a file storage or a NEO instance
      here and there for which address and name is already at hand.
      
      So thanks to zodburi we can switch to specifying storages by URL without
      loosing generality as there is still zconfig:// schema which allows to
      configure storages zconfig way.
      
      P.S. for convenience we allow paths without schema to be treated as
          FileStorage (i.e. file:// schema is implicitly used).
      
      P.P.S. zodbanalyze is not affected (for now ?) as it currently
          works with FileStorage only.

      zodb - Tool to drive them all · 984cfe22
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      We already have 3 commands in zodbtools suite (zodbanalyze, zodbdump &
      zodbcmp) and this is going to grow. And it was already noted some time
      ago with TODO (in 66946b8d) that we need only one command driver to
      invoke everything.
      
      So do it: introduce `zodb` command which can invoke other subcommands
      and show general help or help for subcommand or a topic.
      
      The structure is modelled after `git` and `go` commands. Help topics
      are for now empty but we'll add one help topic in the next patch.

      - Zodbanalyze was initially developed by Zope corp & co. See
