Thanks to all for the advice. I have some learning to do.

I actually have VirtualBox installed and for the sprint I had a
Vagrant VM set up running the basic
http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box. I had set up a virtualenv on
this box with Sphinx installed for the Sphinx tutorial at PyCon, and
this worked really well.

When I got to the Mailman sprint, I tried to install MM 3 on this
Vagrant VM, and I ran into some error with buildout trying to compile
some package and failing with a missing Python.h file.

I ran 'sudo apt-get install python-dev' on the VM which I thought
would fix it, and the install seemed to run OK, but I still had no
Python.h.

At that point, I gave up and went to a virtualenv on my production server.

At this point, I don't know whether the best approach is look for a
more complete development box for Vagrant or figure out how to
provision the basic Vagrant box with what I need or forget Vagrant and
install directly in VirtualBox or go with a dual-boot.

Anyway, it's going to be interesting to figure this out.




Since I was curious to see I created a vagrant VM with lucid and I only 
needed to install the following:


   To install (Lucid32):
   - python
   - python-dev
   - bzr
   - python-setuptools
   - gcc

To make everything work and be able to run buildout and bin/test in 
mailman bzr version.
So now I was thinking to transform this manual steps in a Vagrantfile, 
and we could use this

to ship for people that want to try, other things to do:

   Optional packages:
   - Gnome / XFCE / Other
   - vim

   To check/set:
   - launchpad login, possibly passing the authentication and the SSH
 key somehow to the vagrant file
   - dimension of the VM to make sure it's not too small

PS. I get 6 failures running the tests though, as
File /home/vagrant/mailman/src/mailman/model/docs/users.rst, line 172, 
in users.rst

Failed example:
user_2.preferred_address = anne

Next step for me may be to learn more about how the unittests fit

It's *relatively* simple.  Essentially all unittests live in a test_foo.py

package).  I generally name unittest.TestCase subclasses as TestFoo and
individual tests inside there as test_foo() methods.  There are lots of
examples spread throughout.  It's only a little extra work if you have to
create a new tests/ subdirectory or test_foo.py module, but again, it should
be pretty straightforward.

These all get auto-discovered by the zope.testing framework, so there's
nothing else necessary to hook it all up.  The one other tricky thing is the
layers, which are a zope.testing mechanism to share more generic resources
among a suite of tests.  E.g. if you need the rest server to be started, you'd
use the RESTLayer (see mailman.testing.layers for what's currently defined).
To enable a layer, you just need to set the `layer` attribute of the TestFoo
class.  Almost all the tests will require at least the ConfigLayer since that
brings up the Zope component architecture, connfiguration system, etc.

zope.testing is a bit weird here because the normal rules of subclasses don't
actually apply.  E.g. the LMTPLayer derives from ConfigLayer which derives
from MockAndMonkeyLayer.  All the appropriate setUp()s get called by
zope.testing so you don't need to up-call explicitly in the layer class.  Yes,
this kind of sucks since it's magical, and it's one reason why eventually I'd
like to switch to something like testresources and a more sane testing
framework, but that's a lot of effort for little immediate value.

Note that doctests are all set up in test_documentation.py so they're not
really all that special.

Also, I need to figure out a better development platform for Windows
boxes. I had a perfect opportunity to scrap Windows all together when
I had to recover from a hard drive crash on my main development box
last year, but the dice fell the wrong way on that one.

There are lots of options here.  As mentioned, virtualbox should be a good
option, and you can probably use something like wubi to create an Ubuntu
desktop running along side Windows.  Of course, all the Linuxes should give
you a way to dual-boot your Windows machine if you're so inclined.  You may
even be able to boot off a USB drive or stick, though that will be slower.
Commercial options such as VMware are also a possibility, though of course you
should try the free options first. :)

Maybe I can organize a sprint at the next PyCon - Migrating to Linux
and killing Windows one PC at a time.

Definitely. :)

Well but why using Vagrant?
Vagrant is great to create VMS for automatic testing, but if you want to 
create your own
VM with all your things that you need I don't see how it can help, just 
install a normal

Ubuntu/whatever on Virtualbox and you're fine..

And another possible advice is to always copy the errors you get, also 
because most of the times

you can get the answer you want simply by a quick google search ;)

I'd recommend this too. (Vagrant for repeatable deployments, you only 
need one).


If you like Ubuntu, Ubuntu Server (an LTS version) is well worth using 
for this sort of thing as it is already headless, no desktop (or though 
you can add one if you want).

Then there is what pipeline/scrubber.py does with the remaining
message which is remove those message parts which can't be rendered
well in a flat, text/plain message and store them aside and replace
them by links in the message. The part we can't do in MM 3 is
calculate a URL to display/download them.

Yep.

 The easiest thing to do, and what I will probably do in my 
 'death-to-pipermail' branch is to simply scrub out the unwanted
 parts *after* a copy of the message is sent to the archive queue,
 but *before* the message is sent to the digest, usenet, and
 outgoing queues.

I'm not sure about the *before* with respect to usenet and digest and
certainly outgoing. Currently in 2.1, we don't scrub (as opposed to
content filter) non-digest deliveries unless scrub_nondigest is Yes.
We maybe should just drop that option.

We also don't scrub messages for the MIME digest.

I also don't think we scrub messages destined for usenet. I think we
let usenet worry about that in the same way we propose to let whatever
archiver is configured worry about it.

I don't see a need to handle these differently in MM 3.

ISTM that essence of the scrubber is to turn any remaining text/html parts
into plain text, by various means.  I think the MM2 scrubber.py module is
essentially hopeless, but the basic functionality is useful.  I've decided to
remove the scrubber in the Pipermail-eradication branch, which will also land
momentarily.  I think it would be useful though to rewrite the scrubber, boil
it down to its essential functionality, and add that to the appropriate spot
in the pipeline.

How would you like to take a crack at that?

 For now, I'm going to try to implement sending an unscrubbed copy
 of the message to the archivers and just throwing up our hands for
 the copy of the message sent to the list members.  The nice
 side-effect of this is that it makes the scrubber *way* simpler!

Perhaps we could keep the scrubber as is except for modifying it to
not store scrubbed parts and put some kind of apology in the message
rather than the link to the no longer stored content.

Then my lp:~msapiro/mailman/scrubber-fix branch would still be relevant ;)

Yeah, sorry about that. ;)  I think scrubber.py was just too nasty to
salvage.  Something much simpler would still be useful though.

Cheers,

Sure. Now that I actually have a bit of an idea of what's going on in
the MM 3 core, I'm happy to give it a go.

Next step for me may be to learn more about how the unittests fit
within their framework so I can create some.

Also, I need to figure out a better development platform for Windows
boxes. I had a perfect opportunity to scrap Windows all together when
I had to recover from a hard drive crash on my main development box
last year, but the dice fell the wrong way on that one.

Anyway, Cygwin is not going to cut it for MM 3. At the sprint, I tried
installing MM 3 in a vagrant VM, but there was too much missing (e.g.,
no Python.h) and even 'apt-get install python-dev' didn't fix that. I
ended up working remotely inside a virtualenv on my production server.
That actually seems to work OK, but I'm afraid that as I get deeper
into it, there will be things I need to do that I won't want to do on
my production box.

Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions for me besides the obvious bite
the bullet now and scrap Windows - it will only be worse later, I'm
interested. I suppose I could always dual-boot Windows and some Linux
side by side.

Maybe I can organize a sprint at the next PyCon - Migrating to Linux
and killing Windows one PC at a time.

I would definitively suggest to get rid of Windows, but if you don't 
want or can't
do the big step there is no reason to do a dual-boot, a just create a 
Linux virtual

machine and you're done :)

Unless you don't have much RAM is the best solution, and there are even 
pre-made

virtual machines here:
http://virtualboximages.com/

so it doesn't really take long to set up something working :)

There are two things going on. There is content filtering, i.e.,

[Mailman-Developers] Killing off Pipermail and the effects on scrubbing in Mailman 3

2012-03-15 Thread Barry Warsaw
There's an aspect of the scrubber that isn't going to work in a Mailman 3
world where we have multiple, possibly external, archivers and especially
where we don't have such tight integration with Pipermail (or Pipermail at all
wink).

We can still scrub messages of unwanted content type, but we can't save those
parts on the file system and calculate a URL into Pipermail to display them.

I can think of a few ways to handle this.

The easiest thing to do, and what I will probably do in my
'death-to-pipermail' branch is to simply scrub out the unwanted parts *after*
a copy of the message is sent to the archive queue, but *before* the message
is sent to the digest, usenet, and outgoing queues.

This makes sense because with a model of external archiving, those archivers
may make different decisions about what should be removed or displayed from
the original message.  We can still include a little blurb saying that a part
was scrubbed out, and since the messages can have the pre-calculated url to
the message in one or more archivers, the user is always free to just click on
the url to see the full message, displayed with whatever policy the archiver
is configured with.

One possibility is to save the scrubbed part inside the core and provide a url
to the REST API for accessing this attachment.  This can't be inserted into
the scrubbed message directly though because this would be a non-public url to
the resource, and it would have to be proxied by the web ui.  We need better
configuration for integrating the web ui with the core any way (e.g. to
calculate the url to the user's options page), so this could be part of that.
The interactions are trickier though because you would then have to inform the
web ui that there's a new attachment it should proxy.

The other, more elaborate option is to define an IScrubber interface, or
alternatively a primary IArchiver, that the message can pass through, which
would give it an opportunity to provide urls for each of the parts that will
be scrubbed out.  This is trickier because there can really be only one such
thing defined in the system.  I think it would be confusing if you received a
message that had something like this:

text/html part scrubbed, view it at one of the following:
http://example.com/attachments/foo.html
http://example.org/some/extra/path/bar.html
http://another.archive.example.net/whatever/baz.html

Besides, this may be nearly impossible to do without in-band communication
with that external archiver, which is exactly what the RFC 5064 +
message-id-hash was supposed to avoid.   I think we definitely don't want to
have to force such in-band communications to occur in order to scrub messages
of unwanted parts.

For now, I'm going to try to implement sending an unscrubbed copy of the
message to the archivers and just throwing up our hands for the copy of the
message sent to the list members.  The nice side-effect of this is that it
makes the scrubber *way* simpler!

Any other suggestions?

Cheers,
-Barry
