Before 5.0 we performed a regexp on new item data values to determine if
they were integers and saved them natively in SQLite if so. We no longer
do that, but setField() used strict equality when checking for changes,
so an item could be marked as changed when comparing to a new string
value (e.g., from a write response from the API, which always returns
strings). To avoid that, this converts all old values in the DB to
strings and saves all incoming values as strings automatically. (This
should also help with searching and some other things.)
browserTest.js -> "should save book with child note to current
collection" was failing with an attempt to translate as COinS instead of
RIS. If this isn't fixed in a subsequent Bluebird release, we can debug
further.
Previously, objects were first downloaded and saved to the sync cache,
which was then processed separately to create/update local objects. This
meant that a server bug could result in invalid data in the sync cache
that would never be processed. Now, objects are saved as they're
downloaded and only added to the sync cache after being successfully
saved. The keys of objects that fail are added to a queue, and those
objects are refetched and retried on a backoff schedule or when a new
client version is installed (in case of a client bug or a client with
outdated data model support).
An alternative would be to save to the sync cache first and evict
objects that fail and add them to the queue, but that requires more
complicated logic, and it probably makes more sense just to buffer a few
downloads ahead so that processing is never waiting for downloads to
finish.
- Hide notes, tags and related for feed items in itembox
- Add feed support for <enclosure> elements
- Add feed syncing methods for synced settings (additional work is
needed on the sync architecture to download synced settings from the
server)
- Change feed item clear policy to be less aggressive
- Adjust for deasyncification
- Disable translate-on-select
- Closeadomasven/zotero#7, Remove context menu items from feeds
Fixes the incompatible-version dialog and adds info on the version used
to upgrade the database, which may be helpful for troubleshooting.
Also fixes showing of the Zotero toolbar icons even in case of a startup
error.
Also:
- Remove last-sync-time mechanism for both WebDAV and ZFS, since it can
be determined by storage properties (mtime/md5) in data sync
- Add option to include synced storage properties in item toJSON()
instead of local file properties
- Set "Fake-Server-Match" header in setHTTPResponse() test support
function, which can be used for request count assertions -- see
resetRequestCount() and assertRequestCount() in webdavTest.js
- Allow string (e.g., 'to_download') instead of constant in
Zotero.Sync.Data.Local.setSyncState()
- Misc storage tweaks
