Recalbox builds seven board images with different emulators. The new
target scraper reads each board's defconfig against the package every
system.ini core names. The names that reached no profile are mapped to
the projects Recalbox builds or profiled from their source, and the
mupen64plus video plugins are set aside.
ROCKNIX builds a different emulator set per SoC, and without a target
list an H700 handheld received the PS2, PS3 and GameCube firmware of
emulators its image lacks. The new target scraper reads the emulators
metapackage per device; seven cores ROCKNIX ships get profiles and the
Super Famicom Box ROMs one of them needs are collected.
The target scraper treated every select in Config.in as unconditional
and never set the symbols Buildroot sets, so nearly every board listed
the same 171 cores and xroar, which needs OpenGL, reached none. Selects
now fire from their own config, to a fixed point, from the flags each
board file sets, with Buildroot's arch and OpenGL provider rules read at
the commit Batocera pins. A board that builds no image is no target.
Batocera's cores were read from configgen-defaults.yml, one per system,
and a hand-kept registry list overrode even that; DOSBox Staging,
melonDS DS and nine other cores a user can pick in ES were outside the
pack, while mamemess, which Batocera does not ship, was in. The
scraper now reads es_systems.yml, the registry list is gone, and the
target scraper names standalone emulators (amiberry, fsuae, vice)
instead of only the machines listed under them.
Loading the emulator profiles is the most expensive step of every
command here, and all forty call sites used the pure-Python scanner
while libyaml sat unused in the same wheel. One shared yaml_load picks
the C loader when pyyaml ships it: the 375 profiles parse in 0.18s
instead of 1.39s, and verify --platform retroarch drops from 2.17s to
0.73s. The loader class is the same restricted one safe_load uses.
es_bios.xml was parsed straight from the network while install.py
already refused a document declaring entities; both now share one
guard. Scrapers reach it through a single path bootstrap in the
package rather than two ad-hoc ones.
Run ruff check --fix: remove unused imports (F401), fix f-strings
without placeholders (F541), remove unused variables (F841), fix
duplicate dict key (F601).
Run isort --profile black: normalize import ordering across all files.
Run ruff format: apply consistent formatting (black-compatible) to
all 58 Python files.
3 intentional E402 remain (imports after require_yaml() must execute
after yaml is available).
Add many MAME/MESS BIOS entries (TRS-80 family, Bandai RX-78, Sega AI) and update docs/navigation counts (README, mkdocs). Remove empty supplemental file references from database.json and update generated timestamps and totals. Harden and refactor tooling: add MAX_RESPONSE_SIZE limited reader in base_scraper, make target scrapers an abstract base, narrow exception handling in the Batocera targets parser, and switch generate_pack.py and verify.py to use build_target_cores_cache (simplifies target config loading and error handling). verify.py also loads supplemental cross-reference names and accepts them through verify_platform. Update tests to import from updated modules (validation/truth). Misc: small bugfix for case-insensitive path conflict check.
