Old bugs

[JonB]

Sorry for creating another thread... this is basically an extension of the 160xx thread, but nodebb got painfully slow for me on page 50 or whatever thatbthread has become.

Instead of manually testing each bug on that list for each release, I created a simple doctest listing the bugs, with reproducible code examples.

I'm seeing only one failure here with the latest P3 beta, but that's related to a Python 3 change – f.write('a\n') fails because the file is open in binary mode and write expects a bytes object and not unicode.

If you're still seeing other tests fail on your device, could you post the output here?

I just noticed that one convert_point test fails if the keyboard is visible when the test is started.

[JonB]

I posted a simpler convert point doctest to the github repo.

In 1.5, the origin was wrong when converting fullscreen views using a None argument. i think it was lcked to the lower right corner. Now fullscreen has the origin priblem, and also all views have scaling problems, at least on ipad 3.

[JonB]

also, view.close() doesn't seem to work still for panel. I thought it did the first time, but now it doesn't. manually closing the view crashes P3.

I am having same issue on closing panel view as @JonB

The first time it worked (programmatically closed a panel view of stash). The I added some print statements in will_close() method to check whether it is fired. Somehow the print statements caused the system to issue a KeyboardInterrupt exception and prevented it from working. Then I manually closed the panel view by tapping the X button. This crashes the app and this becomes permanent. Now it crashes everytime I try to manually close a panel view. I have tried restart the app and even the device. It still persists ...

[ywangd]

In fact, manually closing a panel view just crashes the app no matter what. I installed the latest Pythonista 3 beta on my other device and it crashed straight away.

I can confirm that closing a panel view manually crashes the app. Closing the view programmatically works for me though (testing with filenav on Pythonista 3).

I think the twitter module in pythonista 2 isn't quite right -> either that or I'm missing something.

No matter what I do, I can't get the results from this advanced twitter search:
https://twitter.com/search?q=Privacy OR Apple from%3ARepTedLieu&src=typd

The terms of the search being (( Privacy OR Apple ) from:RepTedLieu )

I tried passing it in as the regular search query parameter as well as {"q":"query"} parameter.

import twitter

def performPrivacySearch(self):

    parameters = {'q':"Privacy%20OR%20Apple%20from%3ARepTedLieu&src=typd",'result_type':'mixed'}
        
    #Tried all these:
    #queryURL = "privacy, apple from:reptedlieu"
    #queryURL= "Privacy%20OR%20Apple%20from%3ARepTedLieu&src=typd"
    data = twitter.search(self.account,queryURL,count=2,parameters=parameters)
        
            
    for each in range(len(data["statuses"])):
            
    print("\n")
    print "=====> "+str(each)
    print(">user: "+str(data["statuses"][each]["user"]["screen_name"]))
    print data["statuses"][each]["text"]
    print("________________________>")

Thoughts anyone?

[omz]

@JonB @dgelessus @ywangd I can confirm that closing panel views (both programmatically and manually) is still mostly broken, looking into it.

@Tizzy This works fine for me:

import twitter
account = twitter.get_all_accounts()[0]
def perform_search():
    data = twitter.search(account, 'Privacy OR Apple from:RepTedLieu',
                          parameters={'result_type': 'mixed'})
    for status in data['statuses']:
        print '> user: ', status['user']['screen_name']
        print status['text']
        print("________________________>")

perform_search()

(I've changed the structure a bit to make it work as a standalone example.)
