File zeitgeist.changes of Package zeitgeist
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 15 11:43:04 CET 2010 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.6:
+ Engine:
- Added 'zeitgeist-integrity-checker.py' tool to check the
integrity of an activity log.
- Optimization of ZeitgeistEngine.find_related_uris() by using
a different algorithm.
- lp#643303, lp#665607: Improved database updates
- lp#650930: If FindEvents-queries are run over the complete
TimeRange intervall don't add timestamp conditions to the SQL
statement
- lp#641198: Improved speed of prefix-search queries by always
using the index
+ Python API:
- lp#655164: Added a bunch of new result types
+ Daemon:
- lp#660415: Code-Improvements to zeitgeist-daemon
- Fixed '--log-level' option of zeitgeist-daemon, library code
does not set the log level anymore, the application using the
python library has to take care of it.
+ Overall:
- lp#630593: 'zeitgeist-datahub' is not part of the zeitgeist
project anymore
- Updates to the test suite.
- lp#660423: Added `make run` target to the rootlevel Makefile
+ Updated translations.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 27 08:54:08 CEST 2010 - vuntz@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.5.2:
+ Engine:
- Extensions and the database connection are now shutdown
gracefully when the Zeitgeist daemon is asked to stop over
D-Bus.
- Receiving a SIGHUP indicates a request for a clean shutdown;
this can be used to signal a system-wide restart request
after an update.
- Fixed a bug in TableLookup because of which the internal
cache wasn't being used.
- Added a new option, activated by the
ZEITGEIST_DEBUG_QUERY_PLANS, which prints detailed
information about each query being executed.
- Removed superfluous database commits; now they are called
after all InsertEvent actions have been completed, not once
for every event.
- Speed up the initial query retrieving the last event ID by
fixing it to make use of the database's indexes.
- Catch any exceptions trying to notify a monitor of changes
and redirect them to the error log.
- Fixed LeastRecentActor sorting not working in combination
with event template filtering (lp#641968).
- Renamed the LeastRecentActor sorting type to OldestActor and
implemented a new LeastRecentActor which does what it was
supposed to do (lp#646124).
+ Datahub:
- Added a workaround so that events concerning OpenOffice.org
are logged correctly (lp#646724).
+ Overall:
- Fix an error in the ontology; it's "rdf:Property", not
"rdfs:Property".
- Improved documentation; particularly, the ontology is now
presented in a separate section with a more readable format.
- Translation updates.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Sep 10 10:03:15 CEST 2010 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.5.1:
+ Engine:
- lp#592599: FindEvent*: Event subjects are now joined by a
logical AND instead of OR
- Extensions found in the extensions directory are now
automatically loaded.
- Install a .pc file so out of tree extensions can figure out
the install path.
- Load extensions found in ~/.local/share/zeitgeist/extensions.
- lp#523761: Let the GtkRecentlyUsed data-source ignore any
exceptions while trying to parse .desktop files
- Fix return value of the SetDataSourceEnabled D-Bus method.
- lp#592599, lp#604747: Extensions: Hooks have been renamed and
most of them now have pre and post variants
- Add new ResultTypes for sorting by subject origin
- Change the hooks API for the Extension class to use pre_* and
post* hooks to make it clearer when they are run. This change
also brings in a few new hooks.
+ Python API:
- ZeitgeistDBusInterface.get_extension is no longer a
classmethod (in fact, it never really was).
- ZeitgeistDBusInterface.get_extension now has a third optional
parameter to change the bus name.
+ Overall:
- lp#595577: Build system fixes
+ Updated translations.
- Drop zeitgeist-rdflib-3.patch: fixed upstream.
- Use _smp_mflags.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

parameter to change the bus name.
+ Overall:
- lp#595577: Build system fixes.
- Manpage updates.
+ Updated translations.
- The .pc file is kept in the main package, as a split for this
file alone does not make sense and it does not drag in any other
-devel packages.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul 8 00:14:55 CEST 2010 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.4.0:
+ Engine:
- Compile the shared-desktop-ontolgies (aka Nepomuk (aka
OSCAF)) into Python code at build time, and use them for out
subject classification system
- You can now negate the fields uri, interpretation,
manifestation, origin, and mimetype, in event templates by
prepending the field value with an exclamation mark '!'.
- You can truncate (aka wildcard) the subject fields uri,
origin, and mimetype in event templates by appending an
asterisk '*' to the string.
- Event templates now match on all child types of the specified
interpretations and manifestations. Ie. Interpretation.IMAGE
also matches RASTER_IMAGE and VECTOR_IMAGE.
- The core database schema is now versioned, meaning that we
can migrate data if the DB ever needs to change in layout. It
also brings slightly faster startup of the daemon when we
detect that the schema version is what we expect
- Two new environment variables ZEITGEIST_DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS
and ZEITGEIST_EXTRA_EXTENSIONS controlling which extensions
are loaded
- Man pages updated with --no-datahub and environment variables
to control the data paths and loaded extensions
- Auto upgrades of schemas
- Some Nepomuk type URIs where wrong and will be fixed
automatically in the schema upgrade of the DB
- Fix DeleteEvents to work with arbitrarily huge amounts of
IDs.
- Set event.id before passing events to the extension hooks so
extensions can make use of the event ids
+ Python API:
- TimeRange sprouted a few new useful methods.
+ Ontology:
- Removed {Interpretation,Manifestation}.UNKNOWN. If you really
really (like really!) can not come up with a good
interpretation or manifestation don't log it - or insert an
empty string instead.
- What was subject's Manifestation.WEB_HISTORY is now
represented by a combination of Interpretation.WEBSITE and
Manifestation.REMOTE_DATA_OBJECT.
- Manifestation.FILE has been renamed to
Manifestation.FILE_DATA_OBJECT.
- Event interpretations OPEN_EVENT and VISIT_EVENT has been
coalesced into a new interpretation type called ACCESS_EVENT.
- Event interpretation SAVE_EVENT has been coalesced into
MODIFY_EVENT.
- The following interpretations has been removed because we
need a suitable alternative defined in the Nepomuk/OSCAF
scope: BROADCAST_MESSAGE, FEED_MESSAGE, SYSTEM_RESOURCE,
NOTE.
- Interpretation.MUSIC is now Interpretation.AUDIO.
- The following event interpretations has been removed because
they had unclear meanings or limited general usefulness:
FOCUS_EVENT, WARN_EVENT, ERROR_EVENT.
+ Overall:
- Other fixes and code enhancements.
- Manpage updates.
+ Updated translations.
- Add raptor, python-xml and python-rdflib BuildRequires.
- Add python-rdflib Requires.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 4 14:50:15 CEST 2010 - vuntz@opensuse.org
- Use a valid RPM group: Productivity/Other. Note that it's not a
file manager, so Productivity/File utilities is not appropriate.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May 10 16:50:17 CEST 2010 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.3.3.1:
+ Engine:
- Added a LastSeen property to data-sources.
- Fixed a bug in the DataSourceRegistry extension where it
failed to handle the disconnection signal from data-sources
with several running instances.
+ Overall:
- This fixes a bug where zeitgeist-datahub would fail to start.
- Changes from version 0.3.3:
+ Engine:
- lp#493903: Added MostPopularActor, LeastPopularActor,
MostRecentActor and LeastRecentActor as possible ReturnTypes
for FindEvents and FindEventsId
- Let {Find,Get,Insert}* hooks know the bus name of the caller,
when executed over D-Bus.
- Add an extension implementing a data-source registry
(allowing to disable data-sources from a centralized place
and see their description).
- Overhauled FindRelatedUris for better results and improved
performance.
- lp#490242: Changed FindEvents, FindEventIds and
FindRelatedUris to not treat zeros in the given TimeRange
specially; "(0, 0)" can no longer be used
- lp#526357: Fixed a crash in the GtkRecentlyUsed data-source
parsing malfored .desktop files (LP: #526357)
- lp#510761: Added support for more file mimetypes
- lp#523761: Fixed a crash in the GtkRecentlyUsed data-source
trying to read broken symlinks disguised as .desktop files
- lp#531793: Fixed a crash in the GtkRecentlyUsed data-source
which happened when there was no display friendly version of
a URI
- Renamed --no-passive-loggers option to --no-datahub. Output
printed by zeitgeist-datahub is no longer visible in
zeitgeist-daemon's output.
- Added --log-level option to change the output verbosity.
- lp#491646: DeleteEvents now correctly removes any
unreferenced values (URIs, actors, etc.) and not only the
events themselves
- lp#557708: Fixed insertion of events with a payload
- Fixed an exception in DeleteEvents.
- lp#566184: Fixed event deletions not always getting committed
- Ignore deletion requests for non-existant events.
+ Python API:
- Made the Interpretation and Manifestation classes iterable.
- Added symbol lookup by URI, in the form of dictionary access.
- Fixed the display name for Interpretation.SOURCECODE.
- lp#510804: Fixed find_events_for_values and
find_event_ids_for_values
- Added a get_extension() method to ZeitgeistDBusInterface, to
get convenient access to D-Bus interfaces provided by engine
extensions.
+ Overall:
- More fixes and code enhancements.
- Manpage updates.
- Translation updates.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 20 11:44:23 UTC 2010 - awafaa@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.3.2:
+ Added FindEvents, optimized shorthand for
GetEvents(FindEventIds(…)).
+ Fixed DeleteEvents and make it ignore bad requests.
+ Fixed GetEvents not to raise an exception when called with an
empty list.
+ ZeitgeistClient.get_version() now returns a Python list.
+ Some code refactoring, documentation changes and other little
fixes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 15 16:32:33 CET 2010 - vuntz@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.3.1:
+ Add a FindRelatedUris() method to the core DBus API (also to
the Python client lib). This can be used to find URIs that
occur in relation to a set of events, sorted by relevancy.
+ The Zeitgeist engine now exposes a Blacklist API over DBus
which can be used to block events from entering the log
+ The engine now also exposes a fine grained monitoring system
that can be used to listen for updates to the log
+ InsertEvents() now return an event id of 0 for events that are
blocked or otherwise fail insertion
+ Extensions can now provide hooks to block or change events
before they are inserted into the log
+ Remove support for more than one backend. What was known as the
"Resonance backend" is now just "the engine"
+ Removed method from DBus API GetLastTimestampForActor
+ Lots more unit tests added
+ The engine will now load a default set of extensions on startup
+ Overhaul and restructure our Sphinx-based API-documentation
system.
+ API documentation is more or less at 100% both for the DBus API
and the Python client library
+ Bash completion for zeitgeist-daemon
+ Code style cleanups
+ Bugfix: You may now request more than 999 events in one go from
GetEvents()
+ Bugfix: In find_eventids where using more than one event
template resulted in all but the first one ignoring the
timestamp restriction
+ Bugfix: Fix URL of Interpretation.APPLICATION to correct
Nepomuk URI
+ More bugfixes
- Changes from version 0.3.0:
+ Disclaimers:
- Support querying only for available items (eg. filtering out
deleted files, not listing files on detached USB storage,
etc.) is exposed in the API but doesn't work yet.
- The database layout may change again before 0.4.0.
- The event ontologies are not yet set in stone, and minor
changes are expected
- Only one logger is enabled for now: the one monitoring recent
files. In coming releases this logger may well be deprecated
in favour of application specific plugins.
+ Complete rework of engine and DBus API.
+ Public Python client API defined in zeitgeist.datamodel and
zeitgeist.client modules
+ Documented public API with Sphinx
+ Changed Ontology from XESAM to Nepomuk.
+ Removed the Storm backend (obsoleted in 0.2.1).
+ Removed the Querymancer backend.
+ Support for event payloads (binary attachments to events)
+ An extension API for the core engine, allowing extensions
direct access to the DB
- Change python-devel BuildRequires to python.
- Change python-gtk Requires to a Recommends.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

+ Added compatibility with Python version 2.5.
+ Removed the Storm dependency, obtaining general performance
improvements.
+ Removed the need for a patched PyGTK.
+ Made the GtkRecentlyUser logger more robust (fixes an infinit
loop on some systems).

+ Fixed a problem with the contents of the EventsChanged signal.
+ Fixed InsertEvents to enforce "mimetype" as a required value.
+ Fixed a bug where the sorting_asc=True in FindEvents would be
ignored if used together with mode="mostused" (lp#404947).
+ Highly improved caching.
+ Added a "--quit" option to zeitgeist-daemon to stop any running
daemon.
+ General code improvements, new test cases and other minor fixes
