Merge lp://staging/~rodsmith/hwcert-tools/get-ytd into lp://staging/~hardware-certification/hwcert-tools/reporting-tools

Hey.

Have a look at my comments below

Also, flake8 the script. I'm sure I've missed something. Also feel
free to pip install flake8-docstrings and re-flake the script.

Moved, just keep a one-line summary at the top. The idea is to see
useful information when running get_ytd_makes.py --help.

Thanks
ZK

The latest changes to the output look good to me. I'll ack once Zyga is satisfied.

I'll do my best to help to resolve code style issues

I've changed most of these things. A few further comments and queries,
though....

I think I've got this, but I'm really guessing at what's what. Is this
documented somewhere?

The problem isn't with internal string handling; it's with what
happens when running the script with redirection when
".encode('utf-8')" is dropped:

$ ./get_ytd_makes.py {blah blah blah} > foo.txt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./get_ytd_makes.py", line 137, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "./get_ytd_makes.py", line 119, in main
    print (make + ": " + str(num_of_make))
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position
17-24: ordinal not in range(128)

It works fine when sending output to the console (or at least, an X
terminal), but when redirecting, it runs into this crash when a name
includes non-ASCII characters. (The trouble point for us is NEC, which
is encoded as "NEC Corporation (日本電気株式会社)"). I've Googled this
to death and using ".encode('utf-8')" is the only solution I've found
that works. (I've tried several ways of explicitly marking strings as
Unicode, and they all fail in one way or another.) If you have another
solution, I'm quite willing to try it.

Hey.

Thanks for improving this, it looks much better. I must ask you to run flake8 though as there are plenty of small things that flake will tell you about. Please look at inline comments for some extra details.

I'd done that before, but I hadn't had the flake8-docstrings
installed. I've now installed it and it's coming up clean.

A couple more comments below....

Sorry, I must disagree on this one. From a cognitive point of view,
blank lines help separate logically-related sections of functions,
which helps both finding relevant sections of code and understanding
it. In Googling the issue, I found, in PEP-8:

: Use blank lines in functions, sparingly, to indicate logical
: sections.

Judging by comments on online forums, this sentence seems to be
interpreted as anything from "use as many blank lines as you want" to
"don't ever use blank lines." In the face of that ambiguity, I'm
sticking with what both my personal preference and my cognitive
psychology training says works.

The downside to this is that it will require changes for each new
version. Granted, that's not often, but I'd rather not deal with that
(or, worse, foist it onto somebody who's never seen the code) when
16.04 or 18.04 comes out. As it is now, the script returns a report
with no entries if the code name is mistyped, which IMHO is not a big
deal; and it will work with future releases. Thus, I'd prefer to leave
it as-is.

Don't ever use two newlines. That's clearly wrong. I don't think this
trivial function warrants to have any newlines but if you want to keep
the single ones by all means do that.

There's a python module with all known ubuntu releases but I forgot
how it's called. If you rather not do validation and rely on later
failures then that's okay too.
