It can be assumed that all scripts comply with basic pep8 formatting
regarding white-space, indentation etc.
Also remove note in best practices page & update `tests/python/pep8.py`.
If we want to exclude some scripts from make format,
this can be done by adding them to `ignore_files` in:
source/tools/utils_maintenance/autopep8_format_paths.py
Or using `# nopep8` for to ignore for individual lines.

If the asset is stored in the current file, display the corresponding
icon in the "Source" button in the sidebar. This is a nice indicator and
helps users learn what this icon represents (it's used in the main

For node groups there is no good default preview generation.
Nevertheless, t would be useful to generate a preview image for a
node group by rendering an object in some cases.
This commit adds a new operator that allows updating the preview
image for the active asset by rendering the active object.
Note, the operator can also be used for other asset types, not just
node groups.
The operator can be found in a menu right below the refresh-preview
button. Currently it is the only operator in that menu. In the future,
more operators to create previews may be added.

Text would display "No asset selected" when it actually inidicates that
there is no asset active (not selected). Changed it to "No active asset"
now.
|

The button is supposed to be blue (default theme) when the properties
region is open, to indicate that state.

In rBdcdbaf89bd11, I introduced a new operator
(`file.asset_library_refresh()`) to handle Asset Browser refreshing more
separate from File Browser refreshing. However, there already was
`asset.asset_list_refresh()`, which at this point only works for asset
view templates, but was intended to cover the Asset Browser case in
future too. This would happen once the Asset Browser uses the asset list
design of the asset view template.
So rather than having two operators for refreshing asset library data,
have one that just handles both cases, until they converge into one.
This avoids changes to the Python API in future (deprecating/changing
operators).

Add a new "experimental" debug option `show_asset_debug_info`, and use
that to determine the visibility of the active asset's catalog UUID and
simple name. Previously this was only determined by the "Developer
Extras" option, which meant it was visible in too many situations. It's
not really a "developer extra", and really just a debugging tool, so the
new option is more in line with its purpose.

The name and tooltip were talking about file-lists, which exposes the
fact that the Asset Browser uses the File Browser code in the UI, which
we shouldn't do. This can confuse users.
Instead have a dedicated operator for the Asset Browser with a proper
name and tooltip.
|
|
Before this, the search button was quite small really, not much text would fit
into it. Increase the size a bit, but not too much to still make the layout
work in smaller area sizes.
|
|
This is information you'd typically want to be visible in the UI. It's optional
of course, so if not relevant, it can just remain unset.

Adds a filter popup to the header that allows specifiying which data-block
types to show. The menu automatically reflects all supported ID types, so it
shows a checkbox for materials, worlds and actions currently by default, and
all ID types with the "Extended Asset Browser" experimental feature enabled.
|
|
The checkboxes integrate better with the surrounding layout and are not that
attention grabbing. To my knowledge the only reason not to use checkboxes was
so the icons could be displayed. But this does it just like the Outliner filter
settings: Show the icon before the checkbox.
Also widen the popover a bit to fit longer labels (didn't fit before this patch
even).
|
|
Updates UI code so that we can enable the asset UI for specific data-block
types by default, i.e. irrespective of the "Extended Asset Browser"
experimental feature.
"Mark as Asset" and "Clear Asset" are always visible in the Outliner context
menu now, but are grayed out if not applicable and show a disabled hint in the
tooltip.
A known side-effect of this: The "Mark as Asset" and "Clear Asset" operators
are enabled for action data-blocks now, even though only pose actions created
through the Pose Libraries add-on are supported. If this is something worth
addressing is being discussed still.

* Show asset path in a (read only) text button. Makes it possible to see the
full path in the tooltip, brings support for copying the path and integrates
better with the sourrounding layout. Previous label needed lots of space to
show the full path without clipping.
* Remove "Details" panel, it only contained one item (description). That is
moved next to the name and asset path button.
* Use property split layout for name source and description buttons. Now that
there are multiple buttons, it's better to have a label for them.
* Always show operators for asset previews, just gray them out if not
applicable instead of hiding. Keeps the layout consistent and graying out is
less confusing than hiding UI elements.

This menu doesn't have an effect on the importing while in the "Current File"
asset library. This can be quite confusing.
However, just hiding the menu may be a temporary solution. Decision
actually to instead show a different menu, that allows choosing between
duplicating and reusing data on drop. This is being reviewed here
https://developer.blender.org/D12879.
Meanwhile (or in case we end up rejecting that), this change should

Ensure that catalog operations create an undo snapshot, and show
undo/redo operators in the asset browser.
A hidden operator `ASSET_OT_catalog_undo_push` is also added such that
add-ons can also set undo snapshots if they need.

Hide the catalog UUID and the catalog simple name from the Asset Browser
side-panel, unless "Developer Extra's" is enabled in the user prefs.

The menu to select the active Asset Library is now in the left bar (so called
"Source List", although I'd prefer "Navigation-Bar").
This has some benefits:
* All Asset Library navigation is in the left sidebar now, giving nice grouping
and a top-to-bottom & left-to-right flow of the layout. The header is focused
on view set-up now.
* Catalogs are stored inside the asset library. Makes sense to have them right
under that.
* Less content in the header allows for less wide Asset Browsers without
extensive scrolling.
* This location gives more space to add options or operators for Asset
Libraries.
Main downside I see is that the side-bar needs to be opened to change
libraries, which takes quite some space. In practice there shouldn't be need to
do this often though.

The Asset Browser now displays a tree with asset catalogs in the left
sidebar.
This replaces the asset categories. It uses the new UI tree-view API
(https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Interface/Views#Tree-View).
Buttons are displayed for adding and removing of catalogs. Parent items
can be collapsed, but the collapsed/uncollapsed state is not stored in
files yet.
Note that edits to catalogs (e.g. new or removed catalogs) are only
written to the asset library's catalog definition files when saving a
.blend.
In the "Current File" asset library, we try to show asset catalogs from
a parent asset library, or if that fails, from the directory the file is
stored in. See adaf4f56e1ed.
There are plenty of TODOs and smaller glitches to be fixed still. Plus a
UI polishing pass should be done.
Important missing UI features:
* Dragging assets into catalogs (WIP, close to being ready).
* Renaming catalogs
* Proper handling of catalogs in the "Current File" asset library
(currently not working well).
The "Current File" asset library is especially limited still. Since this
is the only place where you can assign assets to a catalog, this makes
the catalogs very cumbersome in general. To assign an asset to a
catalog, one has to manually copy the Catalog ID (a random hash like
number) to the asset metadata through a temporary UI in the Asset
Browser Sidebar. These limitations should be addressed over the next few
days, they are high priority.

The Clear Asset operator (`ASSET_OT_clear`) now clears the Fake User.
This makes it symmetrical with the Mark Asset (`ASSET_OT_mark`)
operator, which sets Fake User to ensure assets are always saved to
disk.
Clear Asset now also has a `set_fake_user` boolean option, which allows
users to Clear Asset and set Fake User in one go.
The asset browser now shows these options in the context menu:
- Clear Asset: also clears Fake User. This makes it possible to actually
remove assets from the blend file without leaving the Asset Browser.
- Clear Asset (Set Fake User): keeps the Fake User bit set. This makes
it possible to "hide" the asset from the asset browser, without
loosing the actual data.
Internally, the `ED_asset_clear_id(id)` function now always clears the
Fake User bit. If it was intended that this bit was kept set, it's up to
the caller to explicitly call `id_fake_user_set(id)` afterwards.

Catalogs work like directories on disk (without hard-/symlinks), in that
an asset is only contained in one catalog.
See T90066 for design considerations.
#### Known Limitations
Only a single catalog definition file (CDF), is supported, at
`${ASSET_LIBRARY_ROOT}/blender_assets.cats.txt`. In the future this is
to be expanded to support arbitrary CDFs (like one per blend file, one
per subdirectory, etc.).
The current implementation is based on the asset browser, which in
practice means that the asset browser owns the `AssetCatalogService`
instance for the selected asset library. In the future these instances
will be accessible via a less UI-bound asset system.
The UI is still very rudimentary, only showing the catalog ID for the
currently selected asset. Most notably, the loaded catalogs are not
shown yet. The UI is being implemented and will be merged soon.
#### Catalog Identifiers
Catalogs are internally identified by UUID. In older designs this was a
human-readable name, which has the problem that it has to be kept in
sync with its semantics (so when renaming a catalog from X to Y, the
UUID can be kept the same).
Since UUIDs don't communicate any human-readable information, the
mapping from catalog UUID to its path (stored in the Catalog Definition
File, CDF) is critical for understanding which asset is stored in which
human-readable catalog. To make this less critical, and to allow manual
data reconstruction after a CDF is lost/corrupted, each catalog also has
a "simple name" that's stored along with the UUID. This is also stored
on each asset, next to the catalog UUID.
#### Writing to Disk
Before saving asset catalogs to disk, the to-be-overwritten file gets
inspected. Any new catalogs that are found thre are loaded to memory
before writing the catalogs back to disk:
- Changed catalog path: in-memory data wins
- Catalogs deleted on disk: they are recreated based on in-memory data
- Catalogs deleted in memory: deleted on disk as well
- New catalogs on disk: are loaded and thus survive the overwriting
#### Tree Design
This implements the initial tree structure to load catalogs into. See
T90608, and the basic design in T90066.

Idea for 3.0 is to disable all functionality that isn't well polished
and focus on those parts first. Starting with poses.
* Adds a new experimental option "Extended Asset Browser", replacing
"Asset Browser".
* Unlike the previous option, this isn't enabled by default anymore.
This didn't work well in practice and caused plenty of confusion.
* "Mark as Asset" and "Clear Asset" are hidden if the option is
disabled.
* Same for the category selection in the Asset Browser.
* Always show display the "Only Assets" option in the File Browser while
browing inside .blend files. That way you can hide data-blocks that
are not pose assets.
* The Asset Library setup UI in the Preferences is always visible now,
it's needed for pose library access.

In the `FileList` struct, rename the `AssetLibraryReference
*asset_library` field to `asset_library_ref` -- it's a description of
which asset library is used, and not the asset library itself.
This is to make space for a future `AssetLibrary *asset_library` field,
which will point to an actual asset library struct/class.

The file selection parameters (e.g. `context.space_data.params`) are
expected to be unset in certain cases. Reading 2.4 files seems to be one
of them. Hence, code using it should check it's set first. Also added an

parameters are unset, to help debugging the issue.

Add operator 'Open Blend File' to the Asset Browser. This operator:
- starts a new Blender process,
- opens the blend file containing the asset,
- monitors the new Blender process, and when it stops,
- reloads the assets to show any changes made.
|

It's useful to know where an asset is stored in, before this there was no way
to tell this. This could probably be displayed nicer in the UI but we're
currently unsure how. But at least the information is there now.

Note: Linking in this case as in link vs. append. Easily confused with linking
a data-block to multiple usages (e.g. single material used by multiple
objects).
Adds a drop-down to the Asset Browser header to choose between Link and Append.
This is probably gonna be a temporary place, T54642 shows where this could be
placed eventually.
Linking support is crucial for usage of the asset browser in production
environments. It just wasn't enabled yet because a) the asset project currently
focuses on single user, not production assets, and b) because there were many
unkowns still for the workflow that have big impact on production use as well.
With the recently held asset workshop I'm more confident with enabling linking,
as design ideas relevant to production use were confirmed.

Add operator `FILE_OT_view_selected` to the file browser (and thus also
to the asset browser) that scrolls selected files into view.
This includes the active file, even though it is not selected. In
certain cases the active file can loose its selected state (clicking
next to it, or refreshing the asset browser), but then it's still shown
in the right-hand sidebar. Because of this, I found it important to take
it into account when scrolling.
This also includes a change to the keymaps:
- Blender default: {key NUMPAD_PERIOD} is removed from the "reload"
operator, and assigned to the new "view selected files" operator. The
reload operator was already doubly bound, and now {key R} is the only
remaining hotkey for it.
- Industry compatible: {key F} is assigned to the new "view selected
files" operator. This is consistent with the other "view selected"
operators in other editors.

This makes it possible to trigger a refresh of the data-block preview,
available next to the preview in the Asset Browser sidebar. The previews get
easily outdated and automatically refreshing it all the time is not an option
because it would be a consistently running, quite expensive process. So a
button to cause a refresh should be reasonable.
This button can also be used to switch back from a custom preview to a
generated one. Although that may not be clear, and we should probably think of
a way to explain that better.

The current layout wasn't great at all, and it was planned to polish this. This

* Place name button at the top, with no panel and no leading label.
* Add "Preview" panel, people may not want to see the preview all the time,
it's already visible in the file list.
* Move button to browse for a custom preview to the right of the preview, as
icon-only. We have a similar layout in other places (UI-lists, matcaps).
* Don't make the details panel a sub-panel. Looked weird because the parent
doesn't have a header.
* Add info icon to "No asset selected", looks a bit friendlier.
* Minor cleanups in the UI script.
