This patch also moves nested configuration objects that are not considered
settings from the wireplumber.settings section to its own configuration
section (eg the rules array, the spa plugin properties, etc...). This allows
those objects to be merged with other same sections defined in other files.
The callback for the last test was getting called with non-string type and this
fails the test. fix it by sending string in correct format.
This test failure was not failing the "make test" this is known limitation in the test
setup. The limitation here is only with the last assert statement.
They is really no needed with the new _get() API and the WpSpaJson API. In C,
users can use 'wp_spa_json_parse_{boolean|int|float|string}()' APIs to parse the
WpSpaJson. In Lua, users can just do 'Settings.get(setting, m):parse()'.
We need to use WpSpaJson to parse the values in WpSettings. This is because the
wireplumber configuration is written in JSON, so WpSettings should only hold
JSON values. To fix this, 2 API changes have been done:
- wp_settings_get_int() only accepts gint values, instead of gint64 values. This
is because the WpSpaJson API only parses int values, like spa_json_parse_int().
- wp_settings_get_string() now returns a newly allocated string, this is because
the string needs to be decoded in case it has quotes.
- Monitor to use the JSON APIs and move away from config/lua
- Enhance logic in wpsettings to parse settings which are JSON arrays,
some of the bluetooth properties are JSON arrays and parsing
logic confused them for a rule.
- Add corresponding tests around this logic as well.
- add integer and string version of the APIs,
- Also Refine the APIs, return value to indicate the setting existance
and a new param to return the value of the setting.
- add their lua bindings as well, in lua binding the return value nil
indicates that the setting is not defnied.
- Add corresponding C and lua tests as well.
- Add a few handy debug msgs.
- unlike pipewire, rules will be parsed during the bootup time, i.e
during the creation of the wpsettings object.
- The rules are parsed into the wpinterest objects and stored in the
wpsettings object, they will be eventually used to service the
apply_rule() API.
- Support pipewire syntax of rules defination in this version.
- settings.c tests conf file loading & parsing, metadata updates,
wpsetttings object creation and its API.
- settings.lua tests the API from lua scripts.
- Add a sample settings.conf file, this file contains sections copied
over from client.conf along with the settings section. Add a file
each for wp side and lua side of scripts.
- Make changes in base test infrastructure to take a custom conf file.
- Enhance the wp_settings_get_instance_api() to be take metadata_name
parameter. So, Wpsetttings is now a singleton instance for a given
metadata file.
- Enhance the m-settings module also to be take metadata_name parameter.
this is handy for lua side of tests as its cumbersome to do this is
lua.
