Hi,
For now I'm thinking to store this information (Repository of a
module) in my own application-level persistence layer.
However, I'm still wondering about the performance of
InstallMgr::getModuleStatus.
It's not a big issue on current desktop PCs with fast SSDs. On my
Windows tablet, though - it takes ~3s to call this function using the
"eBible.org" repository. When calling it for all repositories to
gather a complete list of modules, it takes ~6s on my Windows tablet.
I guess the function walks through all the module files and a long
list of files just takes its toll ... Is there a possibility for a
performance improvement, though?
Best regards,
Tobias
Quoting cont...@tklein.info:
Hi Troy!
I guess InstallMgr could add a line into the .conf when installing:
InstalledFrom, but that could be a side load, a local repo, another
SWORD application install on a local lan, or one of our remote
sources which might not still host the module.
That would be helpful!
I have 2 use cases:
1) Show the repository that a module was installed from as part of
other module meta information ("Module About Dialog")
2) Check, which repository a certain module is available from in the
context of a "sync feature". In Ezra Project, I'm storing a list of
installed modules and this list can be synced between different
computers. My expectation as a user is that I want to work with the
same set of modules whichever of my computers I'm using. The "sync
feature" in Ezra Project basically checks the "list of installed
modules" (from Ezra Project synced configuration, synced via Dropbox
or similar service) and then automatically installs missing modules
if there are any modules in the list that have not been installed
locally yet. For this to work efficiently it would be good to know
the source repository of a module, because otherwise I have to
search all repositories for it (That's what I'm currently doing and
the performance is the issue).
Best regards,
Tobias
