The ZIP format allows multiple entries with the exact same filename, and on
top of that, it does not allow deleting or updating entries. To make the
`fdroid verify` procedure failsafe, it needs to create a new temporary APK
that is made up on the contents of the "unsigned APK" and the signature
from the "signed APK". Since it would be possible to give a signed APK as
in the unsigned one's position, `fdroid verify` was not able to update the
signature since it was just adding the new signature to the end of the ZIP
file. When reading a ZIP, the first entry is used.
This is a bit different than index.jar: instead of their being index.xml
and index_unsigned.jar, the presense of index-v1.json means that there is
unsigned data. That file is then stuck into a jar and signed by the
signing process. index-v1.json is never published to the repo. It is
included in the binary transparency log, if that is enabled.
Using datetime instances as the internal format makes it much easier to
convert between the formats needed for index.xml and index-v1. apkcache
still uses time tuples and known_apks.txt still uses the ISO date.
Python encode/decode libs work directly with dicts, so the internal dict
can just be passed directly to any of these libs (pyyaml, pyjson, msgpack,
simplejson, etc). This still generates the exact same index.xml as before.
This converts the internal format for the repo timestamp to a datetime
instance, which can be easily converted to UNIX time in seconds for XML
and UNIX time in milliseconds for the new index formats. UNIX time in
milliseconds is directly serialized into a java.util.Date instance by
Jackson.
FDroidPopen is used for running many commands - from git to gradle to
custom commands via flags like build=. When any of these invoke calls to
custom build systems or upstream programs/scripts, it's not safe to
assume that the output will be utf8.
Unfortunately, this currently leads to crashes and failed builds:
ERROR: Could not build app org.kiwix.kiwixmobile due to unknown error: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/vagrant/fdroidserver/fdroidserver/build.py", line 1155, in main
options.onserver, options.refresh):

result.output = result.output.decode('utf-8')
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xb7 in position 5397290: invalid start byte
One way to fix this would be to use one of the python libraries that
guess an encoding. But a much safer option is to tell the decode method
to ignore non-utf8 bytes, as opposed to crashing on them.
A .asc or .sig file is a detached PGPG signature, `fdroid gpgsign`
generates them. It makes no sense for them to be ever treated as a file
for distribution.
This also adds to forgotten forms of index files.
If a group of items are enclosed in {}, then that will be a Python set,
which does not preserve order. To preserve order, the data must be either
a tuple () or list [].
Like with the App class in the commit before, this makes it a lot
easier to work with this data when converting between the internal
formats and external formats like YAML, JSON, MsgPack, protobuf, etc.
The one unfortunate thing here is Build.update. It becomes
dict.update(), which is a method not an attribute.
build.get('update') or build['update'] could be used, but that would
be oddly inconsistent. So instead the field is renamed to
'androidupdate', except for in the .txt v0 metadata files. This better
describes what field does anyway, since it runs `android update`.
Build.update is only referenced in two places right next to each other
for the ant builds, so this change still seems worthwhile.
Since `fdroid update` parses the output of aapt, and since aapt's output
format changes in non-compatible ways, test to make sure that the version
of aapt is new enough to prevent mystery stacktraces. This only prints a
warning since in many cases, the old version will work just fine.
When a git repo has a .fdroid.yml file in it, and `fdroid build` is run
directly in that git repo, then this uses the file path as the remote for
the git repo in build/appid that is actually built. That makes it possible
to run builds of commits that are only local, and makes things a whole lot
faster.
This allows a source repo to include a complete metadata file so that it
can be built directly in place using `fdroid build`. If that app is then
included in fdroiddata, it will first load the source repo type and URL
from fdroiddata, then read .fdroid.yml if it exists, then include the rest
of the metadata as specified in fdroiddata, so that fdroiddata has
precedence over the metadata in the source code.
This lets `fdroid build` apps without having a whole fdroiddata setup, but
instead just directly in place in the source code. This also lets devs
optionallu maintain the fdroid metadata as part of their app, rather than
in fdroiddata without loosing any control. This should make it easier to
spread around the maintenance load.
This makes sure there is a GPG signature on any file that is included in
the repo, including APKs, OBB, source tarballs, media files, OTA update
ZIPs, etc. Having a GPG signature is more important on non-APK files since
they mostly do not have any signature mechanism of their own.
This also adds basic tests of adding non-APK/OBB files to a repo with
`fdroid update`.

This makes it so that the final build product can be specified in output=
and it'll work no matter if its an APK or not. This was developed around
the case of building the OTA update.zip for the Privileged Extension. It
should work for any build process in theory but it has not yet been tested.

This adds the most basic level of support for including arbitrary files in
an F-Droid repository. This is useful for things like including videos,
ebooks, update.zip files for ROM updates, and more. The aim is to have
this as generic as possible to keep it flexible for unforeseen uses.
Code-wise, this is really just a first effort. This area of code has not
been touched in a very long time, and the repo parsing is done in a giant
function that is not easy to break apart. It should be broken up to more
cleanly support arbitrary files.
Also remove the TODO line, we've decided to keep the old permission
format for now, at least until there is a major overhaul of the index
data format. And the issue tracker the proper place for TODOs.
Empty JDK directories can remain from previous JDK installations. For
example in RHEL/Fedora when RPM upgrades a package it can leave modified
files (usually configs) and, consequently, their directories. So we could
end up selecting a bad JDK path.
This reverts commit 82d09560c6.
It doesn't work - the setup scripts are expecting a ".bin" file (which
is apparently a 7z archive), but what's actually got is a ".zip".

Pass a date from APK to KnownApks.recordapk()

Essentially, it just expands influence of `--use-date-from-apks` option to `stats/known_apks.txt`.

`fdroid update` should be able to handle any valid filename (hopefully
aapt doesn't barf on them). To handle that, the environment where the
shell commands are run in needs to have a UTF-8 locale set. If LANG is
not set, things default to ASCII and UTF-8 filenames fail.
This also renames test APK with lots of Unicode chars as a test case.

This replaces the current default behavior of always forcing the
build_tools version and allows the user to set build-tools forcing in
config.py.
