|
|||
|
<p>This is an experimental <a href="https://www.getlektor.com/" rel="nofollow">Lektor</a> plugin which aims to provide tools (or,
|
|||
|
at least, a tool) to help keep Lektor’s dependency tracking under
|
|||
|
control.</p>
|
|||
|
<h2>Introduction</h2>
|
|||
|
<h3>Motivating Example</h3>
|
|||
|
<p>Suppose that you would like to list the three most recent blog posts
|
|||
|
in the sidebar of your Lektor-based site. This can be done by adding
|
|||
|
something like to your site base template:</p>
|
|||
|
<pre><span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">h3</span><span class="p">></span>Recent Posts<span class="p"></</span><span class="nt">h3</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
<span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">ul</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
<span class="cp">{%</span> <span class="k">for</span> <span class="nv">post</span> <span class="k">in</span> <span class="nv">site.query</span><span class="o">(</span><span class="s1">'/blog'</span><span class="o">)</span><span class="nv">.order_by</span><span class="o">(</span><span class="s1">'-pub_date'</span><span class="o">)</span><span class="nv">.limit</span><span class="o">(</span><span class="m">3</span><span class="o">)</span> <span class="cp">%}</span>
|
|||
|
<span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">li</span><span class="p">><</span><span class="nt">a</span> <span class="na">href</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">"</span><span class="cp">{{</span> <span class="nv">post</span><span class="o">|</span><span class="nf">url</span> <span class="cp">}}</span><span class="s">"</span><span class="p">></span><span class="cp">{{</span> <span class="nv">post.title</span> <span class="cp">}}</span><span class="p"></</span><span class="nt">a</span><span class="p">></</span><span class="nt">li</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
<span class="cp">{%</span> <span class="k">endfor</span> <span class="cp">%}</span>
|
|||
|
<span class="p"></</span><span class="nt">ul</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
<p>This is not without drawbacks, however. To sort the post query by
|
|||
|
date, Lektor iterates through <em><strong>all</strong></em> of the blog’s posts, then sorts
|
|||
|
them. In so doing, it records all of the blog posts as dependencies
|
|||
|
<em>of every page on which this most-recent-post query is used</em>. If this
|
|||
|
is in the sidebar of every page on your site, <em>now every page on your
|
|||
|
site will be rebuilt whenever any blog post at all</em> (not just one of
|
|||
|
the three most recent posts) <em>is edited</em>.</p>
|
|||
|
<p>Technically, it is true that all pages now depend on all posts. You
|
|||
|
might well edit the <code>pub_date</code> of one of your older posts, such that
|
|||
|
it should now appear in the most-recent listing. However, it is not
|
|||
|
true that all pages need to be rebuilt for <em>any</em> edit of any post.
|
|||
|
Unfortunately, Lektor’s dependency tracking system is not elaborate
|
|||
|
enough to be able to express details about <em>how</em> pages are
|
|||
|
dependent on other pages; it only records that they <em>are</em>
|
|||
|
dependent, so Lektor has no option but to rebuild everything.</p>
|
|||
|
<h3>A Solution?</h3>
|
|||
|
<p>This plugin introduces a Jinja filter, <code>limit_dependencies</code>. It
|
|||
|
expects, as input, a Lektor <a href="https://www.getlektor.com/docs/api/db/query/" rel="nofollow" title="Lektor documentation on the Query class">query</a> instance. It iterates through the
|
|||
|
input query, and returns a new query instance which will yield the
|
|||
|
same results. While it is doing its iteration, it — essentially —
|
|||
|
monkey-patches Lektor’s dependency tracking machinery to prevent it
|
|||
|
from recording any dependencies.</p>
|
|||
|
<p>At the end, <code>limit_dependencies</code> records one dependency on a <a href="https://www.getlektor.com/docs/api/db/obj/#virtual-source-objects" rel="nofollow" title="Lektor documentation on Virtual Source Objects">virtual
|
|||
|
source object</a> which depends only on the sequence of the identities
|
|||
|
of the records in the query result. (Lektor provides a means by which
|
|||
|
virtual source objects can report checksums. The
|
|||
|
dependency tracking mechanism records those checksums, and will
|
|||
|
trigger a rebuild should the checksum change. <code>Limit_dependencies</code>
|
|||
|
generates a virtual source object whose checksum depends on the
|
|||
|
sequence of identities in the query result.)</p>
|
|||
|
<p>In the above example, this is exactly what we want. We only want to
|
|||
|
trigger a rebuild if the order or composition of the most-recent three
|
|||
|
posts changes. (Or if any of their titles change. Note that this
|
|||
|
gets covered, too, since when the resulting query is iterated over in
|
|||
|
the <code>{% for %}</code> loop, dependencies will be recorded on the three
|
|||
|
most-recent posts.)</p>
|
|||
|
<p>Thus, the example above, if replaced by:</p>
|
|||
|
<pre><span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">h3</span><span class="p">></span>Recent Posts<span class="p"></</span><span class="nt">h3</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
<span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">ul</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
<span class="cp">{%</span> <span class="k">for</span> <span class="nv">post</span> <span class="k">in</span> <span class="nv">site.query</span><span class="o">(</span><span class="s1">'/blog'</span><span class="o">)</span><span class="nv">.order_by</span><span class="o">(</span><span class="s1">'-pub_date'</span><span class="o">)</span><span class="nv">.limit</span><span class="o">(</span><span class="m">3</span><span class="o">)|</span><span class="nf">limit_dependencies</span> <span class="cp">%}</span>
|
|||
|
<span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">li</span><span class="p">><</span><span class="nt">a</span> <span class="na">href</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">"</span><span class="cp">{{</span> <span class="nv">post</span><span class="o">|</span><span class="nf">url</span> <span class="cp">}}</span><span class="s">"</span><span class="p">></span><span class="cp">{{</span> <span class="nv">post.title</span> <span class="cp">}}</span><span class="p"></</span><span class="nt">a</span><span class="p">></</span><span class="nt">li</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
<span class="cp">{%</span> <span class="k">endfor</span> <span class="cp">%}</span>
|
|||
|
<span class="p"></</span><span class="nt">ul</span><span class="p">></span>
|
|||
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
<p>will work in a much more efficient and sane manner. Pages will be
|
|||
|
rebuilt only if there are changes in the order, composition or content
|
|||
|
of the three most recent posts.</p>
|
|||
