"""
Global calendar and event data structures.
These are created, used, and changed here; and imported and used in frigcal.py.
Classes are used to give mnemonic attr names instead of positional index/unpack.
About EventsTable:
Events from all calendars are stored in a 2-level table, indexed by date and
unique id (UID) for quick access to both displayed and parsed data. Because
events in the table are stamped with their calendar name, there is no need to
segregate by a 3rd calendar dimension (an initial design) -- the GUI displays
the union of all calendar files' events, and a single combined table still
supports display grouping by calendar, via sorts.
Events in the table also have links back to their parsed icalendar object for
fast in-place updates in memory (files are regenerated only on exit), and GUI
month windows keep UID-indexed tables of displayed events for quick deletion.
This model assumes events have UIDs, but the iCalendar standard requires these.
Logical model:
EventsTable index uses 2-level dictionary table nesting: [date][uid]
CalendarsTable = # Parsed file's raw calendar data (all data)
{icsfilename: # key: basename of .ics file parsed
icalendar.cal # icalendar.cal object, from parser
}
EventsTable = # Union of all events in all ics files (used data)
{(m, d, y): # key: date object for event start (and display) date
{uid: # key: event's required unique id, for fast deletes
(.calendar, # ics file name
.summary, # event summary text
.description, # event description text
.category, # category (just 1/first used)
.uid, # event's required unique id, for easy access
.orderby, # creation (or else mod) date: display order sort
.veventobj) # reference link to vevent in icalendar.cal object
}
}
Release [1.1] addition (a new table to minimize code impacts):
CalendarsDirty =
{icsfilename: # key: basename of .ics file parsed
Boolean # True=calendar changed since startup or latest save
}
Subtlety: IN-PLACE CHANGE to mutable objects shared by multiple references is
crucial in this model. EventsTable index objects are referenced from registered
GUI event handlers, and there is just one copy of each CalendarsTable parsed
icalendar array, referenced from index objects and used at file regeneration time.

[1.4] workaround for unwanted transforms in the underlying icalendar lib:
else these wind up dropping their literal '\' in transit to/from the file,
and a 2-char literal '\n' in a text field is changed to a 1-char newline;
to verify, enter text [a\nb\nc\;d\,e"f\"g] in a Summary or Description:
its backslashes should save and load intact (all are mutated/dropped by the
underlying lib without this patch); or, in Python, where \\ means \:
>>> text = 'a\nb\nc\;d\,e"f\"g' # escapes interpreted
>>> text = 'a\\nb\\nc\\;d\\,e"f\\"g' # each '\\' is 1 '\'
>>> e = text.replace('\\', '=%2X' % ord('\\'))

'a=5Cnb=5Cnc=5C;d=5C,e"f=5C"g'
>>> u = text.replace('=%2X' % ord('\\'), '\\')
>>> u
'a\\nb\\nc\\;d\\,e"f\\"g'
TBD: better solution in ics lib? this patch seems a hack, but the ics lib
is undocumented and convoluted, and literal backslashes seem likely to be very
rare in user text; an earlier version escaped just [r'\n', r'\;', r'\,', r'\"'];

which may not be recognized by other calendar programs (a non-issue if there are
no '\' or frigcal is the sole file user) --> made patch switchable in Configs;
