This function can't be tested and it would be testing CPython.

The current pyalpm implementation has no proper refcounting for Package
objects. Add refcount handling for the Database Object in the Package
model and Decref when the package object goes out of scope.

The current pyalpm implementation does not handle proper refcounting
which means the alpm_handle was never freed otherwise accessing an
object when the Handle goes out of scope leads to segfaults.

This means everything needs to keep a reference to the pyalpm Handle
object for every object created from it. The database object now
receives a Handle and increases the refcount for it to stop it from
being removed by the Python garbage collector.

Python's tarfile can actually generate tarfile's in memory which makes
it possible to remove the terrible chdir/cwd code and do less I/O.

Add Gitlab CI integration

pytest has fixtures for tmpfile creation so rely on that instead of
doing it yourself.

Test register_syncdb failing and failure of handle creation.

Jelle van der Waa authored 5 years ago and Jelle van der Waa committed 5 years ago

To speed up tests, make tests reproducible and not relyng on the
internet. The sync database is generated from a fixed json file as does
the local database which has to be created after the handle is
initialised otherwise the ALPM_DB_VERSION file is lacking and it can't
be created. A file based mirror is used with the generated syncdb to
test db.update() so no network access is required at all.

Since pytest 5.0, `str(excinfo)` for `excinfo` from `pytest.raises()`
no longer returns the exception message. `str(excinfo.value)` should
be used instead [1].
