I think we should use our `pip_install*` scripts wherever we can and I'm not quite sure yet if I'd call `repoze.sphinx.autointerface` unmaintained.
* use pip_install_editable
* update sphinx comment
Since Saturday the CI pipeline is failing due to several Sphinx errors. See https://dev.azure.com/certbot/certbot/_build/results?buildId=3928&view=logs&j=d74e04fe-9740-597d-e9fa-1d0400037dfd&t=dde413a4-f24c-59a0-9684-e33d79f9aa02
First, the build of certbot-dns-google is failing because of a particular configuration. It seems that this configuration has been written here to activate the support of the RST instruction `.. code-block:: json` in documentation. However, it does not seem to be necessary for a similar situation in certbot-dns-route53 documentation. So let's try to remove it and fix the Sphinx builds.
Second, Sphinx builds were not pinning dependencies, so Sphinx 4.x (that has been released yesterday) started to be used in the pipeline. Sadly this new version is not compatible with the plugin `repoze.sphinx.autointerface`, used to extract documentation from `zope.interface`. So I fixed the pinning and also explicitly pin Sphinx to 3.5.x for now.
Technically speaking the second action is sufficient to fix the first error, but I keep the dedicated solution because it improves the documentation in my opinion.
This situation could be fixed by not requiring `repoze.sphinx.autointerface`, but this is possible only if we remove `zope.interface` from Certbot. Luckily I started the work few days ago ;).
* Remove explicit lexer call in certbot-dns-google doc builds.
* Write a valid JSON file in the documentation
* Apply constraints to sphinx build environments
* Pin Sphinx to 3.5.4
* Update dependencies
* Pin traitlets
Fixes https://github.com/certbot/certbot/issues/8781.
This PR makes our test farm tests into a normal package so it and its dependencies can be tracked and installed like our other packages.
Other noteworthy changes in this PR:
* Rather than continuing to place logs in your CWD, they're placed in a temporary directory that is printed to the terminal.
* `tests/letstest/auto_targets.yaml` was deleted rather than renamed because the file is no longer used.
* make a letstest package
* remove deleted deps
* fix letstest install
* add __init__.py
* call main
* Explicitly mention activating venv
* rerename file
* fix version.py path
* clarify "this"
* Use >= instead of caret requirement
Fixes#8425
This PR upgrades mypy to the latest version available, 0.812.
Given the advanced type inference capabilities provided by this newer version, this PRs also fixes various type inconsistencies that are now detected. Here are the non obvious changes done to fix types:
* typing in mixins has been solved using `Protocol` classes, as recommended by mypy (https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/more_types.html#mixin-classes, https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/protocols.html)
* `cast` when we are playing with `Union` types
This PR also disables the strict optional checks that have been enable by default in recent versions of mypy. Once this PR is merged, I will create an issue to study how these checks can be enabled.
`typing.Protocol` is available only since Python 3.8. To keep compatibility with Python 3.6, I try to import the class `Protocol` from `typing`, and fallback to assign `object` to `Protocol` if that fails. This way the code is working with all versions of Python, but the mypy check can be run only with Python 3.8+ because it needs the protocol feature. As a consequence, tox runs mypy under Python 3.8.
Alternatives are:
* importing `typing_extensions`, that proposes backport of newest typing features to Python 3.6, but this implies to add a dependency to Certbot just to run mypy
* redesign the concerned classes to not use mixins, or use them differently, but this implies to modify the code itself even if there is nothing wrong with it and it is just a matter of instructing mypy to understand in which context the mixins can be used
* ignoring type for these classes with `# type: ignore` but we loose the benefit of mypy for them
* Upgrade mypy
