Implement Registries, Plugins, and Wiki Integration #109
Conversation
formerly had core/utils and a utils module, just have the module now.
# Conflicts: # autopilot/core/utils.py
…jonny watch the results of the tests jesus christ
removing imports and references to hardware and task objects, and finally killed the godforsaken Task List once and for all. also adding other assorted improvements and bugfixes from the registries branch
this is like a 1000% improvement in usability in my opinion. |
also i am removing the requirement for 3.7 and am just going to note the dependency on spinnaker in the docs and throw exceptions (i don't even know if that is a limitation still, but being 3 versions behind now for literally no reason seems bad). added 3.7-9 to the CI |
ok since there's a decent amount of documentation to be written i'm just going to merge this now and write docs after everything has been merged from this and |
OK i am too fried to write the PR description, and there's still a bit to do here, but i want to start hoisting this massive thing onto the table. one day we will do this in a way that isn't rewriting the whole thing between versions, but it is not this day. v0.4.0 - Become Multifarious (July 30, 2021) ------------------------------------------------------ This release is primarily to introduce the new plugin system, the autopilot wiki, and their integration as a way of starting the transformation of Autopilot into a tool with decentralized development and governance (as well as make using the tool a whole lot easier and more powerful). *With humble thanks to Lucas Ott, Tillie Morris,* `Chris Rodgers <https://github.com/cxrodgers/>`_, `Arne Meyer <https://github.com/arnefmeyer>`_ , `Mikkel Roald-Arbøl <https://github.com/roaldarbol>`_ , `David Robbe <https://github.com/neurodavidus>`_ , *and an anonymous discussion board poster for being part of this release.* New Features ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * `Registries & Plugins <https://github.com/wehr-lab/autopilot/pull/109>`_ - Autopilot now supports users writing their code outside of the library as plugins! To support this, a registry system was implemented throughout the program. Plugin objects can be developed as objects that inherit from the Autopilot object tree -- eg. implementing a GPIO object by subclassing :class:`.hardware.gpio.GPIO` , or a new task by subclassing :class:`~.tasks.task.Task` . This system is flexible enough to allow any lineage of objects to be included as a plugin -- stimuli, tasks, and so on -- and we will be working to expand registries to every object in Autopilot, including the ability for plugins to replace core modules to make Autopilot's flexibility verge on ludicrous. The basic syntax of the registry system is simple and doesn't require any additional logic beyond inheritance to be implemented on plugin objects -- ``autopilot.get('object_type', 'object_name')`` is the basic method, with a few aliases for specific object types like ``autopilot.get_hardware()``. Also thanks to `Arne Meyer <https://github.com/arnefmeyer>`_ for submitting an early draft of the registry system and `Mikkel Roald-Arbøl <https://github.com/roaldarbol>`_ for raising the issue. * At long last, the Autopilot Wiki is alive!!!! - https://wiki.auto-pi-lot.com/ - The wiki is the place for communal preservation of technical knowledge about using Autopilot, like hardware designs, build guides, parameter sets, and beyond! This isn't any ordinary wiki, though, we got ourselves a *semantic wiki* which augments traditional wikis with a rich system of human and computer-readable linked attributes: a particular type of page will have some set of attributes, like a page about a 3D printed part will have an associated .stl file, but rather than having these be in plaintext they are specified in a format that is queryable, extensible, and infinitely mutable. The vision for the wiki is much grander (but not speculative! very concrete!) than just a place to take notes, but is intended to blend the use of Autopilot as an experimental tool with body of knowledge that supports it. Autopilot can query the wiki with the ``wiki`` module like ``wiki.ask('[[Category:3D_CAD]]', 'Has STL')`` to get links to all .stl files for all 3D parts on the wiki. The integration between the two makes using and submitting information trivial, but *also* makes *designing whole new types of community interfaces* completely trivial. As a first pass, the Wiki will be the place to index plugins, the system for submitting them, querying them, and downloading them only took a few hours and few dozen lines of code to implement. The wiki is infinitely malleable -- that's the point -- and I am very excited to see how people use it. * Tests & Continuous Integration with Travis! We are on the board with having nonzero tests! The travis page is here: https://travis-ci.com/github/wehr-lab/autopilot and the coveralls page is here: https://coveralls.io/github/wehr-lab/autopilot . At the moment we have a whopping 27% coverage, but as we build out our testing suite we hope that it will become much easier for people to contribute to Autopilot and be confident that it works! * New Hardware Objects * :class:`.cameras.PiCamera` - A fast interface to the PiCamera, wrapping the picamera library, and using tips from its developer to juice every bit of speed i could! * The I2C_9DOF object was massively improved to take better advantage of its onboard DSP and expose more of its i2c commands. * New Transforms * :class:`.timeseries.Kalman` - adapted a Kalman filter from the wonderful filterpy package! it's in the new timeseries transform module * :class:`.geometry.IMU_Orientation` - IMU_Orientation performs a sensor fusion algorithm with the Kalman Filter class to combine gyroscope and accelerometer measurements into a better estimate of earth-centric roll and pitch. This is used by the IMU class, but is made independent so it can be used without an Autopilot hardware object/post-facto/etc. * :class:`.timeseries.Filter_IIR` - Filter_IIR implements scipy's IIR filter as a transform object. * :class:`.timeseries.Integrate` - Integrate adds successive numbers together (scaled by dt if requested). not much by itself, but when used with a kalman filter very useful :) * :class:`.geometry.Rotate` - use scipy to rotate a vector by some angle in x, y, and/or z * :class:`.geometry.Spheroid` - fit and transform 3d coordinates according to some spheroid - used in the IMU's accelerometer calibration method: given some target spheroid, and some deformed spheroid (eg. a miscalibrated accelerometer might have the x, y, or z axis scaled or offset) either explicitly set or estimated from a series of point measurements, transform future input given that transformation to correct for the deformed source spheroid. * New Prefs * ``'AUTOPLUGIN'`` - Attempt to import the contents of the plugin directory, * ``'PLUGIN_DB'`` - filename to use for the .json plugin_db that keeps track of installed plugins', * ``'PING_INTERVAL'`` - How many seconds should pilots wait in between pinging the Terminal?', * ``'TERMINAL_SETTINGS_FN'`` - filename to store QSettings file for Terminal', * ``'TERMINAL_WINSIZE_BEHAVIOR'`` - Strategy for resizing terminal window on opening', * ``'TERMINAL_CUSTOM_SIZE'`` - Custom size for window, specified as [px from left, px from top, width, height]', Major Improvements ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Stereo Sound (Thank you `Chris Rodgers! <https://github.com/cxrodgers/>`_) - #102 * Multihop messages & direct messaging - #99 - it is now possible to send multihop messages through multiple Station objects, as well as easier to send messages directly between net nodes. See the examples in the network tests section of the docs. * Multiple Children (Thank you `Chris Rodgers! <https://github.com/cxrodgers/>`_) - #103 - the ``CHILDID`` field now accepts a list, allowing a Pilot to initialize child tasks on multiple children. (this syntax and the hierarchical nature of pilots and children will be deprecated as we refactor the networking modules into a general mesh system, but this is lovely to have for now :) * Programmatic Setup - #33 - noninteractive setup of prefs and scripts by using ``autopilot.setup -f prefs.json -p PREFNAME=VALUE -s scriptname1 -s scriptname2`` * Widget to stream video, en route to more widgets for direct GUI control of hardware objects connected to pilots * Support python 3.8 and 3.9 essentially by not insisting that the spinnaker SDK be installable by all users (which at the time was only available for 3.7) Minor Improvements ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Terminal can be opened maximized, or have its size and position set explicitly, preserve between launches (Thank you `Chris Rodgers! <https://github.com/cxrodgers/>`_) - #70 * Pilots will periodically ping the Terminal again, Terminal can manually ping Pilots that may have gone silent - #91 * Pilots share their prefs with the Terminal in their initial handshake - #91 * Reintroduce router ports for net-nodes to allow them to bind a port to receive messages - 35be5d6 * Listen methods are now optional for net_nodes * Allowed the creation of dataless tasks - 628e1fb * Allowed the creation of plotless tasks - 08d99d5 * The ``I2C_9DOF`` clas uses memoryviews rather than buffers for a small performance boost - 890f2c5 * Phasing out using ``Queue`` s in favor of ``collections.deque`` for applications that only need thread and not process safety because they are way faster and what we wanted in the first place anyway. * New Scripts - ``i2c``, ``picamera``, ``env_terminal`` * utils.NumpyEncoder and decoder to allow numpy arrays to be json serialized * calibrations are now loaded by hardware objects themselves instead of the extraordinarily convoluted system in ``prefs`` -- though some zombie code still remains there. * Net nodes know their ip now, but this is a lateral improvement pending a reworking of the networking modules. * ``performance`` script now sets ``swappiness = 10`` to discourage the use of swapfiles - see https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=198765 * Setting a string in the ``deprecation`` field of a pref in ``_DEFAULTS`` prints it as a warning to start actually deprecating responsibly. * Logging in more places like Subject creation, manipulation, protocol assignation. Bugfixes ~~~~~~~~ * Loggers would only work for the last object that was instantiated, which was really embarassing. fixed - #91 * Graduation criteria were calculated incorrectly when subjects were demoted in stages of a protocol - #91 * fix durations in solenoid class (Thank you `Chris Rodgers! <https://github.com/cxrodgers/>`_) - #63 * LED_RGB ignores zero - #98 * Fix batch assignment window crashing when there are subjects that are unassigned to a task - e42fc58 * Catch malformed protocols in batch assignment widget - 2cc8508 * Remove broken ``Terminal.reset_ui`` method and made control panel better at adding/removing pilots - #91 * Subject class handles unexpected state a lot better (eg. no task assigned, no step assigned, tasks with no data.) but is still an absolute travesty that needs to be refactored badly. * The jackclient would crash with long-running continuous sounds as the thread feeding it samples eventually hiccuped. Made more robust by having jackclient store samples locally int he sound server rather than being continuously streamed from the queue. * PySide2 references still incorrectly used ``QtGui`` rather than ``QtWidgets`` * pigpio scripts would not be stopped and removed when a task was stopped, the :func:`.gpio.clear_scripts` function now handles that. * ``xcb`` was removed from ``PySide2`` distributions, so it's now listed in the requirements for the Terminal and made available in the ``env_terminal`` script. * ``LED_RGB`` didn't appropriately raise a ``ValueError`` when called with a single ``pin`` - #117 * A fistful of lingering Python 2 artifacts Code Structure ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * continuing to split out modules in :mod:`autopilot.core` - networking this time * utils is now a separate module instead of being in multiple places * the npyscreen forms in ``setup_autopilot`` were moved to a separate module * ``setup_autopilot`` was broken into functions instead of a very long and impenetrable script. still a bit of cleaning to do there. * ``autopilot.setup.setup_autopilot`` was always extremely awkward, so it's now been aliased as ``autopilot.setup`` * the docs have now been split into subfolders rather than period separated names to make urls nicer -- eg /dev/hardware/cameras.htm rather than /dev/hardware.cameras.html . this should break some links when switching between versions on readthedocs but other than that be nondestructive. Docs ~~~~ * new :ref:`quickstart` documentation with lots of quick examples! Regressions ~~~~~~~~~~~ * Removed the ``check_compatible`` method in the Transforms class. We will want to make a call at some point if we want to implement a full realtime pipelining framework or if we want to use something like luigi or joblib or etc. for now this is an admission that type and shape checking was never really implemented but it does raise some exceptions sometimes. ## todo before merge - [x] changelog - [x] write plugins docs - [x] write wiki docs - [x] finish uploading initial round of information to wiki - [x] refresh user guide docs - [x] remove lab-specific code. * platform driver skeleton * formatting * formatting * note on processing * testing docs * checkpoint actually think i'm misreading the basic program * mask method implemented with columnwise bit banging * a lil more documentation and type annotation * how 2 document props?

Some major changes: * The sound classes in autopilot.stim.sound accept a `channel` argument. (Right now, only Noise does this.) If this is `None` (the default), a mono (1-dimensional) sound is produced, exactly as before. If this is 0, a Noise burst only in the first channel is produced. If 1, a Noise burst only in the second channel is produced. * Multi-channel sounds are properly padded to the correct chunk length in Jack_Sound.chunk (implemented here: https://github.com/cxrodgers/autopilot/blob/4dfe9e77687a8a9083ee7903136f99cc7e63671f/autopilot/stim/sound/sounds.py#L223) * The preference OUTCHANNELS is now interpreted differently. If empty string, then plays in mono mode (same sound to all speakers). If a list, connect channels to physical speakers in that order. If an int, treat as a list of length one. (implemented here: https://github.com/cxrodgers/autopilot/blob/4dfe9e77687a8a9083ee7903136f99cc7e63671f/autopilot/stim/sound/jackclient.py#L160) * I removed padding code in the process() function because 1) this should already be done by Jack_Sound.chunk; 2) process probably doesn't have time to do this kind of thing; 3) the padding code was causing errors on multi-channel sounds, would need to be reimplemented as in Jack_Sound.chunk, but see reason number 1. * OUTCHANNELS default in prefs.py changes to empty string (mono mode, no changes to Task code needed). The old default of [1] suggested 1-based indexing and in any case produced essentially mono results. * NCHANNELS deprecated in prefs.py Error are raised if: * The length of OUTCHANNELS is longer than the number of available ports * OUTCHANNELS indicates mono mode, but multi-channel audio is provided * OUTCHANNELS is length N, but M-channel audio is provided, where N != M. However, 1-dimensional (mono) audio can be provided, and this will play to all N speakers. jonny had suggested using None as the OUTCHANNELS flag for "connect no speakers", but [] works for this more naturally. Also, None cannot easily be put into the json. Known issues: * Presently only Noise can produce multi-channel output. Others can only produce mono output, as before. Should be an easy improvement. * Only works for Jack, not pyo! Not tested! * pyo is not tested! * AUDIOSERVER = 'docs' is not tested! * continuous mode is not tested! Tested on: * jackd from APT and (less thoroughly) jackd built from source I know this is a big change, please lmk if changes are requested/needed! * first pass at stereo * doc; remove extra whitespace; reorganize order of imports * doc Noise * doc and reorganize the way Noise is generated * fix typo * intify channel if possible * remove duplicate outports code * typo * handle stereo or mono output * new way of init outports * remove empty lines and comments * doc * move soudn writing code to its own method * cherry pick a commit to init stereo_output, which required a merge on init_logger * fix chunking and padding for multi-channel sound * removing debug statements * reimplement mono sound * fix typo; error messages; use empty string instead of None as mono flag * remove comment * change default of OUTCHANNELS to empty string (mono) * deprecate NCHANNELS * adding test_sound.py * catch ModuleNotFoundError * server_type is not accessible via self * trace out FS; finish test_init_noise * put various durations into test function * flesh out mono and stereo tests * comments * change calling functions to pytest parameterizations * deprecation for prefs * replace SOUND_LIST with autopilot.get, make placeholder Stim metaclass to make it work when audio server is undefined * fix registry with plugin present * warn if jackd server sampling rate doesn't match prefs Co-authored-by: sneakers-the-rat <JLSaunders987@gmail.com> * add .bib for docs * moving numpy encoder and decoder to new utils location * move parallax to plugin repo: https://github.com/auto-pi-lot/autopilot-plugin-parallax * [skip travis] cleaning up some more code and docs from parallax * [skip travis] cleaning up dead files * Programmatic setup! * cleaned up the setup_autopilot routine a lot. split everything into separate functions so at least the behavior is *somewhat* encapsulated. they're still very messy and this needs some real reconsideration because it's pretty fragile, but hey at least now it can be called as something other than a module from __main__ * Programmatic setup with custom prefs (specified individually as -p PREFNAME=VALUE -p PREF2=VAL2 and -f prefs.json) and scripts. * allowed passing multiple scripts and prefs * still need to write tests * actually propagate custom directory passed with -d/--dir basically need to make sure the rest of the directory structure underneath it follows the basic one. implemented by just making the prefs dictionary explicitly and adding it into the prefs that are passed to the setup form (rather than trying to make some auto-re-computing thing) * whoa i cant believe i actually just relied on a global variable. * [skip travis] v0.4.0 changelog * [skip travis] credits in changelog and some formatting * [skip travis] grats * maybe try actually knowing css * [skip travis] getting started refreshing docs * raise valueerror when instantiating LED_RGB with malformed `pins` or when `pin` is given * [skip travis] - quickstart checkpoint * [skip travis] - quickstart checkpoint * [skip travis] - quickstart checkpoint * quickstart - state property for GPIO - some more params for Transformer to let it be used with the new mode of networking - * [skip travis] fix chris' name * [skip travis] clearing up a lot of erroneous documentation about hardware class creation * [skip travis] trying to include raw blink * making textual blink * [skip travis] checking nbsp * [skip travis] checking nbsp * [skip travis] last bits for the night * [skip travis] last bits for the night * [skip travis] committing before battery runs out! * [skip travis] committing before battery runs out! * [skip travis] plugins docs! * removing wehrlab specific stuff - changing Nafc class references to use registries * add tests * bump version to v0.4.0!!!! and update what's new ;) Co-authored-by: Mike Wehr <wehr@uoregon.edu> Co-authored-by: Chris Rodgers <xrodgers@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: sneakers-the-rat <j@nny.fyi>
Very late now, but I believe i have done this: #39
I will return tomorrow to write the docs and the PR, but yes it is time.
dump anything that inherits from the appropriate metaclass into
PLUGINDIR
and...and as a little bonus...
which will serve as the means of submitting plugins and doing some stuff that is truly messed up how cool it is... more soon ;)
