2023-02-23Dynamically source version in toml from gitdusoleil1-4/+16
Instead of hard-coding the version into the pyproject.toml, we can dynamically source it at build time. Ideally, we want to use git describe as a single authority source on the version. The version is stored in sploit.__version__ and can be consumed during sploit runtime or during a build/package to populate the project's core metadata version in the toml file. hatchling provides a tool.hatch.version plugin that can read out the variable during a build/package. Because this variable is populated from a git command, if the source tree isn't in a git repo, it will fail. In this case, sploit will report a PEP 440 compliant fake version "0+unknown.version" to let the user know. Because a packaged distribution doesn't exist in a git repo, we want to bake in the version at build time into the package. hatchling provides a plugin to help with this, but it had some technical limitations that didn't quite work for our use case. Instead, I added a custom build hook which will take the version sourced from the package (and by proxy the git command), and overwrite the __init__.py with a hard-coded version in the __version__ variable. This means that built/packaged distributions of this project will have a fixed version hard-coded in rather than dynamically sourcing from git. The build hook operates just before the build executes. It seems that most build/packager front-ends (e.g. build, pip) will just run it in the current source tree rather than making a temp copy. This means that when we modify the __init__.py, it is modifying our git tree. Ideally, we want this to be restored at the end of the build. The build hook interface allows us to write a hook that happens after the build, but it won't run in the case of a crash or failed build. Instead, I added a custom solution to this using a member variable deconstructor. If the build ends in any way, the original contents of __init__.py are written back out.

2022-03-17sploit: Clean up use of __getattribute__Malfurious1-8/+0
__getattribute__ is the low-level magic func and will intercept every attribute lookup, whereas __getattr__ is high-level, and is only invoked in specific conditions (such as __getattribute__'s failure). As such, any overload of __getattribute__ which preferentially falls back to object.__getattribute__() before serving a request, can more simply be replaced by a __getattr__ overload without the fallback.

2022-03-13sploit: Move __attr_filter__ to a general place in utildusoleil1-0/+6
Found a spot to use __attr_filter__ in the rev module, so moving it out of mem and into a shared place (util). Signed-off-by: dusoleil <howcansocksbereal@gmail.com>
