Fabio Manganiello	e382ad7650	Invert @ensure_initialized and @action annotations. ... Otherwise, we won't be able to access the wrapped function from the inspection logic.	2023-10-12 00:57:31 +00:00
Fabio Manganiello	3e8d6bb01e	Removed typing-extensions dependency. ... The package isn't present on older versions of Debian.	2023-09-18 14:05:39 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	bf7d060b81	Added @ensure_initialized decorator to actions in variable. ... The `variable` plugin may break in the constructor the first time the application is started. That's because it tries to initialize the cache of stored variables, but the local database hasn't yet been initialized. That's because plugins are registered _before_ the entities engine is initialized, as the entities engine assumes that it already has plugins to scan for entities. Therefore, the initialization of the `variable` plugin's cache should be lazy (only done upon the first call to `get`/`set` etc.), in order to prevent deadlock situations where the plugin waits for the engine to start, but the engine will be initialized only after the plugin is ready. And the lazy initialization logic should also ensure that the entities engine has been properly started (and emit a `TimeoutError` if that's not the case), in order to prevent race conditions.	2023-08-17 02:47:30 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	373788377b	Created two separate actions under variable to delete/unset. ... `delete` will actually remove the record from the database (same as `unset`'s new behaviour), while `unset` will set it to null without deleting it (same as the `unset`'s previous behaviour).	2023-05-05 02:21:18 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	e96885a805	Delete the entity on variable.unset instead of setting it to null.	2023-04-29 18:21:57 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	68d8befa34	Removed some vestigial commented code.	2023-04-29 15:28:44 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	23b851e9d7	variable.status robustness fix. ... `entities.transform_entities` will pass back an empty list instead of an empty dict if no entities were found, and the function should be able to handle it.	2023-04-29 15:24:58 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	f40f956507	Migrated variable table to the new entities framework.	2023-04-29 11:36:55 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	4cc88fcf5f	Rewritten the variable plugin to use SQLAlchemy's ORM. ... This removes the need for raw SQL statements and CREATE TABLE statements that may be engine-specific.	2023-04-25 10:35:12 +02:00
Fabio Manganiello	3bfc5b83ef	Moved to manifest files for describing plugins and backends and their dependencies	2021-09-16 17:53:40 +02:00
