Though the runtime hasn't been changed over in this patch (it was in the
local index at the time however), the test does now demonstrate that
using a `Started` the correctly typed `.pld` will codec correctly when
passed manually to `MsgCodec.encode/decode()`.
Despite not having the runtime ported to the new shuttle msg set
(meaning the mentioned test will fail without the runtime port patch),
I was able to get this first original test working that limits payload
packets as a `Msg.pld: NamespacePath`this as long as we spec
`enc/dec_hook()`s then the `Msg.pld` will be processed correctly as per:
https://jcristharif.com/msgspec/extending.html#mapping-to-from-native-types
in both the `Any` and `NamespacePath|None` spec cases.
^- turns out in this case -^ that the codec hooks only get invoked on
the unknown-fields NOT the entire `Struct`-msg.
A further gotcha was merging a `|None` into the `pld_spec` since this
test spawns a subactor and opens a context via `send_back_nsp()` and
that func has no explicit `return` - so of course it delivers
a `Return(pld=None)` which will fail if we only spec `NamespacePath`.
Turns out the generics based payload speccing API, as in
https://jcristharif.com/msgspec/supported-types.html#generic-types,
DOES WORK properly as long as we don't rely on inheritance from `Msg`
a parent `Generic`..
So let's get real pedantic in the `mk_msg_spec()` internals as well as
verification in the test suite!
Fixes in `.msg.types`:
- implement (as part of tinker testing) multiple spec union building
methods via a `spec_build_method: str` to `mk_msg_spec()` and leave a
buncha notes around what did and didn't work:
- 'indexed_generics' is the only method THAT WORKS and the one that
you'd expect being closest to the `msgspec` docs (link above).
- 'defstruct' using dynamically defined msgs => doesn't work!
- 'types_new_class' using dynamically defined msgs but with
`types.new_clas()` => ALSO doesn't work..
- explicitly separate the `.pld` type-constrainable by user code msg
set into `types._payload_spec_msgs` putting the others in
a `types._runtime_spec_msgs` and the full set defined as `.__spec__`
(moving it out of the pkg-mod and back to `.types` as well).
- for the `_payload_spec_msgs` msgs manually make them inherit `Generic[PayloadT]`
and (redunantly) define a `.pld: PayloadT` field.
- make `IpcCtxSpec.functype` an in line `Literal`.
- toss in some TODO notes about choosing a better `Msg.cid` type.
Fixes/tweaks around `.msg._codec`:
- rename `MsgCodec.ipc/pld_msg_spec` -> `.msg/pld_spec`
- make `._enc/._dec` non optional fields
- wow, ^facepalm^ , make sure `._ipc.MsgpackTCPStream.__init__()` uses
`mk_codec()` since `MsgCodec` can't be (easily) constructed directly.
Get more detailed in testing:
- inside the `chk_pld_type()` helper ensure `roundtrip` is always set to
some value, `None` by default but a bool depending on legit outcome.
- drop input `generic`; no longer used.
- drop the masked `typedef` loop from `Msg.__subclasses__()`.
- for add an `expect_roundtrip: bool` and use to jump into debugger
when any expectation doesn't match the outcome.
- use new `MsgCodec` field names (as per first section above).
- ensure the encoded msg matches the decoded one from both the ad-hoc
decoder and codec loaded values.
- ensure the pld checking is only applied to msgs in the
`types._payload_spec_msgs` set by `typef.__name__` filtering
since `mk_msg_spec()` now returns the full `.types.Msg` set.
Mostly adjusting input args/logic to various spec/codec signatures and
new runtime semantics:
- `test_msg_spec_xor_pld_spec()` to verify that a shuttle prot spec and
payload spec are necessarily mutex and that `mk_codec()` enforces it.
- switch to `ipc_msg_spec` input in `mk_custom_codec()` helper.
- drop buncha commented cruft from `test_limit_msgspec()` including no
longer needed type union instance checks in dunder attributes.
