Open Issues/To-Do Items |
Targeted for 0.5 Alpha 4 |
|
|
Targeted for 0.5 Alpha 1 |
* peak.binding |
|
|
* Fix issue w/reading XMI 1.1 files where metamodel has nested packages |
- Metaclass-free activation mechanism |
|
|
* Clean up __class_provides__ so that it isn't just something randomly |
- Cleanup/document attribute binding interface |
poked in by binding.Once(); it needs a clean infrastructure/interface. |
|
|
|
* Refactor "Pythonic" UML 1.3 extensions so they're usable for most |
* peak.security |
MOF-aligned metamodels (e.g. all UML and CWM versions) |
|
|
|
* Remove deprecated items from peak.model: Feature, Reference, Package, |
- Refactor to use dispatch system, add docs w/examples |
Model, Namespace, DataType, etc. |
|
|
|
* Get XMI writing in place, w/transaction support |
- Define a framework for authentication |
|
|
* Updated reference docstrings for 'peak.api', 'peak.binding', |
|
'peak.config', 'peak.exceptions', and 'peak.naming'. |
|
|
|
* Finish tutorial chapter 2 (?) |
|
|
|
Targeted for 0.5 Alpha 2 |
|
|
|
* On-the-fly class combination (think "runtime module inheritance", |
|
without the modules) for DMs. |
|
|
|
* ZConfig support, probably in the form of generating ZConfig schemas |
|
from 'peak.model' or MOF models, but maybe in the form of 'fromZConfig' |
|
constructor methods as well. |
|
|
|
* 'peak.running' refactorings: use standard 'logging' module's log levels, |
|
add 'logging' distro to 'peak.util' for 2.2 backward compatibility, |
|
make daemons based on 'peak.model' (or at least define ZConfig schemas), |
|
and possibly adjust cluster stuff to work off ZConfig primary and |
|
generate clustertools file(s). App startup tools based on ZConfig and |
|
PEAK-style .ini files. |
|
|
|
* 'peak.naming' refactorings: 'peak.model'-based syntax utilities for |
|
creating address syntaxes. |
|
|
|
Targeted for 0.5 Final Release (or sooner) |
|
|
|
General |
|
|
|
* Tutorial complete through chapter 4 |
|
|
|
peak.storage |
|
|
|
- unit tests for more complex object scenarios: references, thunks..? |
|
|
|
- lock management interfaces/API |
|
|
|
- docstrings for reference |
|
|
|
peak.model |
|
|
|
- clean up TW docstrings & interfaces |
|
|
|
peak.naming |
|
|
|
- useful example "flat" naming context (e.g. like AppUtils.URLkeys) |
|
|
|
- useful example hierarchical naming context (e.g. like JNDI's LDAP |
|
context or filesystem context) |
|
|
|
- rework smtp: to return a factory object that supports open(). |
|
Also think about whether smtp should move elsewhere. Maybe |
|
there should be peak.network or peak.internet for things like |
|
smtp, ftp, etc contexts? |
|
|
|
peak.running |
|
|
|
- make 'cluster' parser complain about things that would cause |
|
the clusterit tools to choke or barf on the file, or which would |
|
produce ambiguous or unintended results. |
|
|
|
- simple daemons comparable to those in MetaDaemon, unit tests |
|
|
|
- docstrings for reference |
|
|
|
|
|
peak.config |
|
|
|
- "Rule"-oriented configuration files (section specifies component |
|
rather than property name prefix), so that daemons and other simple |
|
apps can be fully configured and run via a config file. |
|
|
|
peak.util |
* peak.running.logs |
|
|
- docstrings for reference |
- Separate formatters from publishers |
|
|
- more unit tests? |
|
|
|
|
- Refactor to use 'dispatch' package to manage event distribution |
|
(i.e., use generic-function rules) |
|
|
|
* peak.util |
|
|
|
- Better documentation for SOX |
|
|
|
* peak.web |
|
|
|
- Rethink context objects |
|
|
|
- Conditional views |
|
|
|
- Menus |
|
|

Targeted for 0.5 Final Release (or sooner) |
|
|

|
|
|
- useful example "flat" naming context (e.g. like AppUtils.URLkeys) |
|
|
|
- useful example hierarchical naming context (e.g. like JNDI's LDAP |

|
|
|
- rework smtp: to return a factory object that supports open(). |
|
Also think about whether smtp should move to peak.net? |
|
|
|
* peak.config |
|
|
|
- Replace IMainLoop activity monitoring with a plugin-based mechanism? |
|
|
|
- plugin keys ordered by definition sequence, rather than randomly |
|
|
|
- ZConfig factory support to allow "smart" interpretation of strings, |
|
section names, etc. |
|
|
|
* peak.running.commands |
|
|
|
- Add "error formatting" and "error reporting" services |
|
|
|
* Transaction/storage refactorings |
|
|
|
- transaction scopes for commands and tasks |
|
|
|
- integrate locks with transactions |
|
|
Future Releases |
- transactable persistent queues |
|
|
(Note: some of the below is held-over from TransWarp and may no longer be |
- ws.ElementClass.find()/ws.ElementClass.get() queries |
relevant as written, they are being kept on this list as placeholders for |
|
ideas or problem areas that may need to be re-considered in future.) |
|
|
|
|
|
Simulator/Module Inheritance |
|
|
|
* Need a strategy for handling "del" operations; they are currently |
|
untrapped. This might be okay under most circumstances, but need to |
|
consider edge cases. |
|
|
|
* 'makeClass()' should probably become part of the core API, where |
|
it can be used to resolve __metaclass__ conflicts during the first |
|
pass of importing a module (prior to running 'setupModule()') |
|
|
|
|
|
Messaging/ObjectSpaces |
|
|
|
* Support for sending and receiving remote cache invalidation |
* peak.web |
messages between RecordManagers. |
|
|
|
|
- Allow DOMlets access to parse location info (file and line number) |
|
|
|
- default error templates, w/useful info |
|
|
|
- A set of simple, basic form controls that handle value rendering only |
|
(form metadata, validation, etc. will be handled by peak.web.forms in |
|
a later release) |
|
|
|
- conditional GET support (last modified/ETag) for static resources |
|
|
|
- image resources |
|
|
|
* Drop 'persistence' package, since ZODB 4 has been derailed. Change to |
|
"state-delegation" model, which will integrate better with 'peak.query'. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
peak.model |
|
|
|
* Implement WarpCORE-oriented structural model, w/Querying support |
|
|
|
* "Indexed" version of in-memory model? |
|
|
|
|
|
Queries |
|
|
|
* Refactor to use interfaces, if appropriate |
|
|
|
* Incorporate into AbstractModel? |
|
|
|
- Pros: |
|
|
|
* Queries always available |
|
|
|
* Each StructuralModel implementation can easily include its own |
|
performance-tuned version of the basic items. |
|
|
|
- Con: default implementation doesn't perform well on large datasets |
|
|
|
* How much of framework needs extensibility? Should the predicate |
|
classes be placed in the StructuralModel's namespace so that predicates |
|
have their meaning assigned by the StructuralModel implementation? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Targeted for version 0.6 |
|
|
|
* Functional/acceptance tests that access "real" databases, LDAP, etc. |
|
|
|
* Get XMI writing in place, w/transaction support |
|
|
|
* Generate UML 1.5 and CWM 1.0 and 1.1, and add them to the |
|
'setup.py' package lists. |
|
|
|
* On-the-fly class combination (think "runtime module inheritance", |
|
but possibly without the modules) for workspaces. |
|
|
|
* Lock management interfaces/API for peak.storage |
|
|
|
* Support for sending and receiving remote cache invalidation |
|
messages between workspaces. |
|
|
|
* Make 'cluster' parser complain about things that would cause |
|
the clusterit tools to choke or barf on the file, or which would |
|
produce ambiguous or unintended results. (Or replace with ZConfig |
|
schema that can generate clusterit files. And/or replace clusterit |
|
tools with PEAK ones.) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
peak.metamodels.uml |
|
|
|
* Helper methods in Elements & Services for marshalling, common queries, etc. |
|
|
|
* Generator framework |
|
|
|
- Tagged values in stereotypes vs. main values? |
|
|
|
- Should tagged values be copied directly into templates? Treated as |
|
Python expressions? |
|
|
|
- Should Services be generated using an Element class' "static" |
|
(class-scope) methods/attributes? |
|
|
|
- Are association-ends scoped? |
|
|
|
- Would it be better to seperate them? |
|
|
|
- What determines whether an implemented Service actually stores objects |
|
or delegates this to its subclass services? |
|
|
|
* Simple Zope product demo (upload XMI, then browse the model via the web) |
