templates/files: narrow down scope of webhelpers.html.literal
In the 'Show Authors' functionality on a file of a repository, the following
construct:
h.literal(ungettext('..A..') % (..B..))
can be simplified. Here, literal was used to cater for explicit HTML tags in
the (..B..) part only. There is no need to apply literal on the '..A..'
part.
A better structure of this code is:
h.HTML(ungettext('..A..')) % h.literal(..B..)
Note that we still need to wrap the '..A..' part in webhelpers.html.HTML to
make sure the '%' operator will preserve the 'literal' property.
See also the documentation: (the text below for 'literal' also applies to
'HTML')
https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/webhelpers/en/latest/modules/html/builder.html
"
When literal is used in a mixed expression containing both literals and
ordinary strings, it tries hard to escape the strings and return a
literal. However, this depends on which value has “control” of the
expression. literal seems to be able to take control with all
combinations of the + operator, but with % and join it must be on the
left side of the expression. So these all work:
"A" + literal("B")
literal(", ").join(["A", literal("B")])
literal("%s %s") % (16, literal("kg"))
But these return an ordinary string which is prone to double-escaping later:
"\n".join([literal('<span class="foo">Foo!</span>'), literal('Bar!')])
"%s %s" % (literal("16"), literal("<em>kg</em>"))

Database schema changes
=======================
Kallithea uses Alembic for :ref:`database migrations <upgrade_db>`
(upgrades and downgrades).
If you are developing a Kallithea feature that requires database schema
changes, you should make a matching Alembic database migration script:
1. :ref:`Create a Kallithea configuration and database <setup>` for testing
the migration script, or use existing ``development.ini`` setup.
Ensure that this database is up to date with the latest database
schema *before* the changes you're currently developing. (Do not
create the database while your new schema changes are applied.)
2. Create a separate throwaway configuration for iterating on the actual
database changes::
kallithea-cli config-create temp.ini
Edit the file to change database settings. SQLite is typically fine,
but make sure to change the path to e.g. ``temp.db``, to avoid
clobbering any existing database file.
3. Make your code changes (including database schema changes in ``db.py``).
4. After every database schema change, recreate the throwaway database
to test the changes::
rm temp.db
kallithea-cli db-create -c temp.ini --repos=/var/repos --user=doe --email doe@example.com --password=123456 --no-public-access --force-yes
kallithea-cli repo-scan -c temp.ini
5. Once satisfied with the schema changes, auto-generate a draft Alembic
script using the development database that has *not* been upgraded.
(The generated script will upgrade the database to match the code.)
::
alembic -c development.ini revision -m "area: add cool feature" --autogenerate
6. Edit the script to clean it up and fix any problems.
Note that for changes that simply add columns, it may be appropriate
to not remove them in the downgrade script (and instead do nothing),
to avoid the loss of data. Unknown columns will simply be ignored by
Kallithea versions predating your changes.
7. Run ``alembic -c development.ini upgrade head`` to apply changes to
the (non-throwaway) database, and test the upgrade script. Also test
downgrades.
The included ``development.ini`` has full SQL logging enabled. If
you're using another configuration file, you may want to enable it
by setting ``level = DEBUG`` in section ``[handler_console_sql]``.
The Alembic migration script should be committed in the same revision as
the database schema (``db.py``) changes.
See the `Alembic documentation`__ for more information, in particular
the tutorial and the section about auto-generating migration scripts.

Troubleshooting
---------------
* If ``alembic --autogenerate`` responds "Target database is not up to
date", you need to either first use Alembic to upgrade the database
to the most recent version (before your changes), or recreate the
database from scratch (without your schema changes applied).
