Extensions 1.0 - 2019-03-24 to 2019-04-01
I've completed a very exausting slog through all of our extensions for the Inkscape 1.0 release. Below is a detailed report on where we currently stand with our extensions repository. There are some decisions to make wrt how we support dependancies, how we test extensions that call out to outside programs and how we fix the remaining issues.
If you'd like to help out, then pick one of the extensions in the failed, missing or otherwise has a problem from the below lists and download the inkscape-extensions repository from GitLab. Use pytest tests/test_[name_of_extension].py to test the specific extension you're interested in. For svg comparisons, look for the XXX parts in the output, it'll show you were it's different xml-wise.
== Overview ==
* 23 Extensions without comparison tests
* 119 Added Comparison Tests - 0 Causing an Error (all fixed) - 95 Working extensions with perfect matches - 24 Failed to match (output is different)
* 7 Missing, Removed or untestable extensions - 1 Delayed fix because of Merge Request - 1 None Inkex based python extension - 4 Removed extensions - 1 Windows extension
=== Failed Extensions ===
Large number of differences or just borked:
- perspective, pixelsnap
Large number of differences or format is not svg:
- dpiswitcher, extrude, dxf_outlines, hpgl_output
Medium number of differences related to path transformatons:
- foldablebox, polyhedron_3d, summersnight
Medium number of differences, various attributes missing from output:
- grid_polar, grid_cartesian, lindenmayer, whirl
Tiny or single difference related to finding layer center:
- render_barcode, render_barcode_datamatrix, render_barcode_qrcode, render_gear_rack, render_gears, spirograph, split, triangle, wireframe_sphere, grid_isometric, hershey
=== Removed: External dependancy, shell script (not python) ===
- eqtexsvg, plt_output, sk1_output, wmf_output,
=== Other ===
gcodetools - Held up because of merge request, cleanup is very large. dm2svg - None inkex python extension, could be converted print_win32_vector - Windows only (untestable) but also an infurating copy of dxf_outlines.py AND untestable because it requires access to printers to print things.
=== Extensions without comparison tests ===
color_randomize, dxf12_outlines, fractalize, frame, generate_voronoi, gimp_xcf, inkwebeffect, interp_attr_g, jitternodes, layout_nup, loren_ipsum, markers_strokepaint, measure, pathmodifier, pathscatter, prepare_file_save_as, print_win32_vector, render_alphabetsoup, rtree, rubberstretch, synfig_output, synfig_prepare, text_randomcase
