The old folder name is somewhat confusing, because the
folder contains shims to _compensate for the removal
of sys.path hacks_, but does not contain the sys.path
hacks themselves.
Furthermore, this import_shims/ system could also be
used for other import path changes, such as turning
the locally-installed packages in common/lib/
into regular, importable modules
(e.g. `from common.lib.xmodule import abc` instead of
`from xmodule import abc`). So, a name that is not
specific to the sys.path hacks may be better
in the medium-to-long term.
Along the same lines, we also rename SysPathHackWarning
to DeprecatedEdxPlatformImportWarning.
The last time we tried this upgrade we encountered timeouts on the quality job, which it now appears were due to the worker running pylint common running out of memory and killing the Jenkins process. Switching to a different worker type with double the RAM (8 GB vs. 4 GB) seems to have fixed this; about 5.5 GB was used. Upstream is aware of the high memory usage on large projects, it's apparently due primarily to a cache of parsed modules: https://github.com/PyCQA/pylint/issues/1495 .
Even after disabling some of the new checks that have been added, the new version of pylint found about twice as much to complain about. Just bumping the threshold for now to unblock the Django upgrade, we can try automated utilities like pyupgrade to fix some of these later.
This gets us checking for tests inheriting from other tests. When that
happens, tests get run more than once, which is pointless. We have a
few dozen new warnings due to this new check.
This also disables unused-wildcard-import. That removes a few hundred
warnings.
Together, this means we can reduce the pylint limit to 5999. :)
third_party_auth contains a working settings mechanism, the start of the provider interface + 3 implementations (Google, Mozilla Persona, LinkedIn), and a stub for the auth pipeline. Modified existing lms settings files to use but deactivate the module.
We had a bug where mixins weren't being applied before `load_from_xml`
was called. This meant that not all of the fields were being loaded
correctly. To fix it, we used the mixoligist from the runtime to apply
the mixins earlier in the process. However, that caused the mixins to be
applied twice.
The included fixes to xblock resolved the multiply-applied mixins, and
the fixes to the parsing code make it simpler to understand, and add
some unit tests of the parsing to boot.
No one reads the pylint reports, we just want the messages.
setUp and tearDown don't need docstrings.
More ways to mark arguments as unused.
