This reverts commit 9c41c39913.
That commit used byte strings for the `if __name__ == '__main__'` pattern,
which was necessary when we were doing unicode_literals. But it is wrong on
Python 3, and now that we're liberated from unicode_literals, we need to go
back to native strings for this comparison.
* Add changelog and query.rst documentation entries for the usage of negated
queries.
* Cleanup NotQuery class as suggested during code review (PEP conforming
docstring, clarification on empty clause match behaviour).
* Revise the NotQuery syntax, replacing the '¬' character with '^'. Fix tests
to conform to this change, and cleanup the PARSE_QUERY_PART_REGEX.
* Modify parse_query_part() docstring to mention the negate parameter on the
returned tuple, and added an example.
* Add tests to NotQueryTest for testing the results of using queries with
negation.
* Fix issue on test_dbcore due to the modifications on the tuple returned by
parse_query_part (the number of elements was changed from 3 to 4).
* Modify NotQuery so it subclasses Query instead of MutableCollectionQuery.
* Update instances where NotQuery objects are created on tests and queryparse,
as NotQuery expects a single Query as a parameter to the constructor instead of
a list of Queries.
* Add support for user friendly "not" operator in queries without requiring to
use regular expressions, via adding NotQuery to beets.dbcore.query.
* Update the prefix list at library.parse_query_parts() and the query parsing
mechanisms in order to create a NotQuery when the prefix is found.
* Add two TestCases, NotQueryMatchTest as the negated version of MatchTest, and
the more generic NotQueryTest for testing the integration of the NotQuery with
the rest of the existing Query subclasses.
Detect path parts of a query with `PathQuery.is_path_query()` which
tests for `os.sep` presence AND query part existence.
Also fix a bug where "my_path/" would not get detected: colon absence would
make search for `os.sep` only happen in "my_path".
Fix#1385.
Test usqge of SQL's substr() with a UTF8 example. The ideal would be to
test with non-UTF8 code points, however it is impossible to perform such
a query: queries can only be unicode or utf8.
Places where InvalidQueryArgumentTypeError may be raised (i.e. all
current ones) may not know the query therefore it cannot be an
InvalidQueryError. The InvalidQueryArgumentTypeError is caught in
beets.library.Library._fetch() and an InvalidQueryError is then raised.
Improve #1290.
Replace previous InvalidQueryError with InvalidQueryArgumentTypeError
which extends the former as TypeError. However they lack context: the
query that caused the error.
Raise an InvalidQueryError when a shell-like expression cannot be parsed
by shlex.
Improve #1290.
Include import of __future__ features division, absolute_imports and
print_function everywhere. Don't add unicode_literals yet for it is
harder to convert.
Goal is smoothing the transition to python 3.
So far an invalid query won't be applied:
$ beet ls The Beatles year:196a
will be treaded as
$ beet ls The Beatles
With this commit it stops beets, returns 1 and produces
$ invalid query: u'196a' is not an int or a float
This applies to any querying and therefore on many command, plugins and
some configuration options.
Invalid queries exist on numeric fields and on regular expression usage.
Compile regular expression queries upon instantiation instead of upon
each match test.
The reporting can be improved (give more context). Fix#1219.
