When printing the upgrade menu, sort the repos in the order they are
defined in pacman.conf (or more technically, the order they are
registered in alpm). Packages in the same repo are still sorted
alphabetically.
If a repo is not in pacman.conf or the database query fails it will
fallback to alphabetical.
Previosly during `yay -Su` Yay would pass
`pacman -S <packages that need upgrade>` to pacman.
Instead pass `pacman -Su --ignore <number menu choices>`
This allows yay to handle replaces and package downgrades `-Suu`
Before the goroutines in upList() were layed out like:
upLists()
|- - - upRepo()
|- - - pAur()
| - - - upDevel()
Simplified by moving upDevel() from upAur() to upList():
upList()
|- - - upRepo()
|- - - upAur()
|- - - upDevel()
With the simpler layout it was easy to then remove some un need channel
useage entirely and use WaitGroups in other places.
Now if any of the three inner functions error, upList() will return
a combined error instead of just printing the error and carrying on.
The update process was already partly parallel: repo, aur and devel
updates where each given their own goroutine.
This gives two further layers of parallelization. Firstly the
`needsUpdate()` function is now run in parallel for each package checked.
One package may have many vcs sources so `needsUpdate()` also checks all
of its sources in parallel.
This gives an aproxamte 3x speedup for `yay -Su --devel` timing from
when the command starts to when the number menu apears.
unfortunately git://bitbucket.org/volumesoffun/polyvox.git never
resolves on my machine for some reason so it always hits the 5 second
timout period.
It then moves on to http:/bitbucket.org/volumesoffun/polyvox.git/ which
does resolve as expected. I have not looked into it but I fear this
applies to all gitbucket repos. Luckly they are few and far between.
commit 5286f385 broke the alignment on -> in the upgrade menu.
This commit moves the function responsable for printing the upgrade menu
from upgrade.go to print.go, fixes the formating to how it was before
and changes the padding on the number to three digits instead of two.
This allows proper alignment on numbers >100 which is not unheard of.
With the planned move to number menus for askcleanbuilds and
askeditpkgbuilds a consistant way is needed to make number menus in
a clean way without rewriting the same code over and over.
The prevous commit introduced `parseNumerMenu()` to create a standard
way to handle number menus. This commit implements the new function for
the upgrade menu both as a test and to bring some new features.
Entering 1-9999999 will no longer cause ram usage to spike to 100%
(before yay would try to build an []int containing the numbers 1 to
9999999).
Suport for discarding/including entire repos by name
> "54 aur extra"
would skip the package numbered 54 and all packages
that are listed as aur and extra.
> "^devel ^20"
would only install packages listed under devel and the package
numbered 20
Use the command `git ls-remote <url> <branch>` to track devel updates
rather than relying on the GitHub API.
This allows devel update to work for every git based source and
elimantes the rate limiting from GitHub.
The yay_vcs.json format has changed to better support packages which
multiple vcs sources and to track the protocols each source uses. And
track the branch that each source tracks in it's fragment.

This commit mostly focuses on merging the install() and upgradePkgs()
functions to be more integrated. Instead of both making their own aur
queries they now both combine theyre needes into one query. This gives
us a speed up and allows us to easily print orphands, misising and out
of date in one clean block.
I have replaced the old install and dependancy algorithms with a new
design that attemps to be more pacaur like. Mostly in minimizing user
input. Ask every thing first then do everything with no need for more
user input.
It is not yet fully complete but is finished enough so that it works,
should not fail in most cases and provides a base for more contributors
to help address the existing problems.
The new install chain is as follows:
Source info about the provided targets
Fetch a list of all dependancies needed to install targets
I put alot of effort into fetching the dependancy tree
while making the least amount of aur requests as
possible. I'm actually very happy with how it turned out
and yay wil now resolve dependancies noticably faster
than pacaur when there are many aur dependancies.
Install repo targets by passing to pacman
Print dependancy tree and ask to confirm
Ask to clean build if directory already exists
Download all pkgbuilds
Ask to edit all pkgbuilds
Ask to continue with the install
Download the sources for each packagebuild
Build and install every package
using -s to get repo deps and -i to install
Ask to remove make dependancies
There are still a lot of things that need to be done for a fully working
system. Here are the problems I found with this system, either new or
existing:
Formating
I am not so good at formatting myself, I thought best to
leave it until last so I could get feedback on how it
should look and help implementing it.
Dependancy tree
The dependancy tree is usually correct although I have
noticed times where it doesnt detect all the
dependancies that it should. I have only noticed this
when there are circular dependancies so i think this
might be the cause. It's not a big deal currently
because makepkg -i installed repo deps for us which
handles the repo deps for us and will get the correct
ones. So yay might not list all the dependancies. but
they will get installed so I consider this a visual bug.
I have yet to see any circular dependancies in the AUR
so I can not say what will happend but I#m guessing that
it will break.
Versioned packages/dependencies
Targets and dependancies with version constriants such
as 'linux>=4.1' will not be checked on the aur side of
things but will be checked on the repo side.
Ignorepkg/Ignoregroup
Currently I do not handle this in any way but it
shouldn't be too hard to implement.
Conflict checking
This is not currently implemented either
Split Paclages
Split packages are not Handles properly. If we only
specify one package so install from a split package
makepkg -i ends up installing them all anyway. If we
specify more than one (n) package it will actually build the
package base n times and reinstall every split package
n times.
Makepkg
To get things working I decided to keep using the
makepkg -i method. I plan to eventually replace this
with a pacman -U based method. This should allow passing
args such as --dbpath and --config to aur packages
aswell as help solve some problems such as the split
packages.
Clean build
I plan to improve the clean build choice to be a little
more smart and instead of check if the directory exists,
check if the package is already build and if so skip the
build all together.
Argument parsing now works mostly as expected for repo packages.
AUR packages are a little tricky becauce makepkg cant handle args such
as '--dbpath'.
Also out alpm handle does not read the commandline options so any
arguments relient on alpm will be ignored.
For now though it seems yay has gained back the functionality it once
had. While also having improved argument handling which should also be
expandable and make it easier to handle anything new that might have
been missed.
This reimplemens all operations yay previously supported:
'-S' 'Syu' 'Si' ect.
Currently the argument objects are not fully implemented with the code.
Theres alot of funky conversion from
argument object -> pkg, flags -> argument object
This is to just get back to the functionally we had before (almost).
I have not looked into it yet but alot of the time pacman flags get
passed to makepkg. this cases an error for most commands now because the
new system Passes all flags:
`yay -Syu` -> flags = '-S' '-y' '-u'
while the old system would have done:
`yay -Syu` -> op = '-Suy', flags = ''
So extra flags are no longer passed at all currently.
This means:
'yay -S aic94xx-firmware --noconfirm -b /tmp/pacutilesu2q6hw/tmp-pacman -d'
will no longer error and 'aic94xx-firmware' will be installed but the
database path change will not apply and the dep checking will not be
skipped.
passToPacman now takes and argParser as a paramater. And is implemented
for the simple cases in cmd.go. Although passToPacman is now left non
working in places which still try to usr the old call format and will
need to be reimplemented.
