T1724: Maven Central repository support
Summary

The Maven lister retrieves the maven central indexes, exports them in a
convenient text format, and parse them to identify all src archives and
pom files in the maven repository. Then the pom files are downloaded and
analysed to find and yield any scm reference.

I'm not done yet but here is first review on my side.

Also, please stash your git revisions before the final review/ acceptance; this Diff should consist in one (maybe 2) git revisions in the end (using git rebase -i to rework your git history).

swh/lister/maven/lister.py

Why is docker involved here? I see no other mention of a docker stuff anywhere in this diff.
I don't understand what this "index_url" is and how it is supposed to be used.

127

why not use the context manager API of the NamedTemporaryFile here?

130–134

Please document a bit these regex. Also please prefer named match groups when possible (?P<name>...) which helps to "self-document" regexes.

141

a python text file object is iterable, so one would prefer the form:

for line in file_txt:
  [...]
143

while line: is enough here

147

this could be handled by the regex itself

150–163

why use urljoin while hand-building the URL by concatenation of strings with '/'?

I mean urljoin does support multiple arguments, like:

urljoin(self.BASE_URL, path, aid, version, f"{aid}-{version}.{ext}")
166

and ext in ("zip", "jar")

166

BTW, what about an upper case ext value?

184–186
out_src[url_src] = {"g": gid, "a": aid, "v": version}

Not sure out_src and out_pom really need to be defaultdict actually.

196

Now that I read this, why not do the processing on the flight? Why bother storing the file on disk then read it back line by line to do a bunch of regex?

requests does provide a nice API for this:
https://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/api/#requests.Response.iter_lines

201

no need for the .keys() here, iterating on a dict is iterating on its keys.
But more importantly, you probably want to actually iterate on both keys and values:

for src, val in out_src.items():
  ...
  yield {
    ...
    "time": val["t"],
      ...

BTW, if you use proper keys in out_src[*] (i.e. "time" instead of "t" and so on) you can just use it as is here:

  yield {
    "type": "jar",
    "url": src,
   **val
}
This revision now requires changes to proceed.Sep 20 2021, 4:33 PM

I'm not done yet but here is first review on my side.

Thanks for your time and interest.

Also, please stash your git revisions before the final review/ acceptance; this Diff should consist in one (maybe 2) git revisions in the end (using git rebase -i to rework your git history).

That's planned before the final review, and that should happen soon hopefully.
We still need to sort out a point with vlorentz about the jar/maven loader that impacts both the lister and loader. But that's not big, I am confident we're close to the end of the first iteration (i.e. without incremental update).
That's good, every little thing done now is not on the road ahead, and I learned a lot from your comments. Thanks!

swh/lister/maven/lister.py

It's been a long discussion held back in June on IRC and in task T1724. In a nutshell, we need two tools to transform the maven indexes into something readable: maven-indexer-cli and clue. Rather than have a virtual machine (there is no way to run java code in python without one) it was requested that the tools be put in a docker container. End of August, the docker image was ready and olasd asked me (08-25) to put it on a separate server so the lister would simply have to query it on the network.

so: index_url is the name (or IP address) of this local server that hosts the docker image.

127

As far as i can remember, because I wanted to stream it in order to reduce memory footprint: the download can be huge.
For maven-central the main download would be 49GB.

130–134

You're definitely right. Fixed, thanks.

141

Yes, I'm shameful.
The reason for this is there is a second readline later on in the loop, and I could not find a more elegant way yet. There are newlines in some of the fields, I didn't come up with a nice way to do it. Yet.

143

Fixed, thanks.

150–163

Hum. It yields [1] when I try, and that's not what I've read [2].

[1] "TypeError: urljoin() takes from 2 to 3 positional arguments but 6 were given"
[2] https://docs.python.org/3/library/urllib.parse.html#urllib.parse.urljoin

Am I missing something?

Note: I have fixed the ugliness of if by using f-strings, and it looks a lot better.

166

ext in (a, b) => Far more elegant, of course. Fixed, thanks.

uppercase => Yes, good point. As a matter of fact there is no uppercase extensions on maven central (just checked) but I'm not sure why (part of the maven convention, maybe?) and that can surely happen.
Anyway, it's definitely good practice, fixed, thanks.

184–186

For uniqueness of entries (some entries tend to appear a few times). Is there a way to do it better with Python?

196

Short answer: because I didn't know of iter_*lines*. Oh god. :-)
Thanks!!

swh/lister/maven/lister.py
58

Ok, so please document all this some where (in this diff). The README file shoudl give some high level explanations, and this docstring should refer to this former doc.

Also, where is documented/specified this index file format? It should be somewhere.

127

The context manager is unrelated with loading the file in RAM or not.

150–163

No you are right, my mistake, I was assuming urljoin has a decent API, which is not the case. sorry.

184–186

I don't see how using defaultdict is related with this uniqueness question.
What does it bring that a simple dict would not?

some more :-)

swh/lister/maven/lister.py
219

I'm always nervous when I see a bytes.decode() called on some content coming from The Workd™.

Is there any change of getting some encoding error here?

234

use items() on the dict:

for src, project in out_pom.items():
   yield {"type": "scm", "url": src, "project": project}

BTW, why build the dict to yield its values just after building it?

Why not yielding values directly from the for pom in out_pom loop?

253–254

no need to compile the regex if it's used only once. Just use the match function directly:

m_scm = re.match(r"^scm:([^:]+):(.*)$", page["url"])

Also please prefer named group matching (https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#index-17)

260

what's the comment for?

264–271

do you really need a regex to check for a '.git' at the end? I means page["url"].enndswith(".git") should do the trick here.

278

why the commented line?

It would be nice to have a README fil in swh/lister/maven/tests/data explaining what the data files are, where they come from, how they have been generated, etc.

swh/lister/maven/tests/test_lister.py
53–68

Is it really necessary for these functions to be fixtures?

72

The "two collections" is not clear to me.

79–82

why not just assert sorted_lister_urls == sorted_scheduler_origins ?
Assuming you build sorted_scheduler_origins as sorted(x.url for x in scheduler_origins) I mean.

Also the list in list(sorted(x)) is not necessary I believe.

95–97

Why these local variables? They look unnecessary to me.

113

It's generally not a good idea to shadow a builtin function/type (list here). Better choose another variable name. Especially since it looks to be a dictionary...

115–130
148

please explain which HTTP error this is actually testing.

152

I don't get why we have 2 listed origins if there have been HTTP error in the process. If it's expected, it needs a bit of explanation.

Hum. This diff is a mess after the refactoring of the main loop.
Please give me some time to fix all of the current issues, then rebase the diff to make it more readable. Hope it will clear up the lines mix.

so: index_url is the name (or IP address) of this local server that hosts the docker image.

so: index_url is the name (or IP address) of this local server that hosts the docker image *and* the exported indexes to be downloaded.

Added a README.md (in this arc diff) and added a link to the readme in the f-string (yet to commit).

Fixed with refactoring (see below).

150–163

I did assume that too at some point, rings a bell. yeah.

That's exactly why we need peers: to get out of our own train of thought.

Ok, fixed as you proposed. The file is now parsed as it is downloaded, and that solved a few other points. When the design is broken, everything looks weird, right?
Yet to commit: no more file kept.

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

Done.

147

Yes, it could. But it seems to me that readability is better this way.
As you say. Want me to do it?

184–186

Ok, I get it. That's probably an old Perl habit to explicitly have hashes of hashes.
Fixed to Dicts, thanks.

219

Thanks for spotting that, it needs some consideration.

Theoretically, no: we're decoding the content of a file downloaded from a local server (transport errors should be ok), which is output by clue asynchronously (i.e. file is not served if the process fails), so corruption or weird content is unlikely, but.. it's still clearly out of our control. So yes, we never know and you're definitely right.

OTOH we can't go on without that data, and I have the feeling we should rather fail (throw an exception about decoding and end execution) than pass silently (adding errors='ignore' to decode could do that). Would you like to try & catch, and then throw a specific error? What would you recommend?

=> added errors='ignore' so the list will simply be empty.
234

Very good point, moved it to the for pom in out_pom loop. Thanks!

253–254

Right, fixed, thank you! :-)

260

Removed.

I'm quite new to python fixtures, but as I understand it I'd say yes. The script is expected to http-get these files, so fixtures are the right way to mock it, right? That's what I've seen on other listers too.

Is there a better way to do it?

79–82

Well spotted, thanks. I removed the function and did an assert == on sorted lists. And renamed the variable, you're once again definitely right. Thanks!

95–97

Agreed. Were there once for readability, not relevant anymore. Thanks!

113

Very good point. Changed to src. Thanks!

115–131

Refactored.

148

Added documentation and more tests:

  • http error on maven_index not found,
  • added error 404 error code.
152

Right. Yes, it's expected. Added this comment:

  1. If the maven_index step succeeded but not the get_pom step,
  2. then we get only the 2 jar origins (and not the 2 additional
  3. src origins).
