Issue: #2824

Summary & Context

Renovates the functionality of the library filtering to create a more intuitive experience that better aligns with community expectations. The selected min. c++ version is now a ceiling on the min C++ version, and the selected min C++ version is a floor to the newly added and displayed C++ version. The versions are now properly displayed on the page.

Changes

Backend

  • Adds a fall back maximum C++ version to the libraries that is used if a library version does not set it itself.
  • Adds a command to populate these versions from an included excel sheet provided by Rob.
  • Reworks the logic for how filtering happens on the library page. The minimum C++ version only compares with the library C++ version and vice versa.
  • Updates the Library Page to have a column for the maximum C++ version
  • Adds labels to the list version of the library page for the C++ versions

‼️ Risks & Considerations ‼️

Please list any potential risks or areas that need extra attention during review/testing

  • Including the excel sheet in the database adds some overhead, as it will need to be updated periodically.
  • The minimum and maximum version are now displayed on all views of the libraries, but only properly explained on the list view.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Library listings now show separate minimum and maximum C++ versions, with clearer column labels.
    • C++26 is available as a standard, and library-level maximum versions can be shown when version-specific information is unavailable.
    • C++ standard filters now compare selections against the corresponding minimum and maximum versions.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds library-level maximum C++ standard data and imports it from a workbook. Library listings now show minimum and maximum standards, support C++26 in the standard options, and use updated range checks. The view also prints its constructed library dataset to standard output.

Changes

C++ standard maximums

Layer / File(s) Summary
Store and import library maximums
libraries/migrations/0048_library_cpp_standard_maximum.py, libraries/models.py, libraries/management/commands/import_library_maximum_cxx_verson.py
Adds a nullable library maximum field and a management command that imports workbook values for matched libraries.
Resolve maximum-standard display
libraries/models.py
Adds the C++26 display name. The version maximum display uses the library maximum when no version maximum is set.
Filter and show standard bounds
templates/v3/library_page.html, templates/v3/includes/_library_item.html, static/css/v3/library-item.css, libraries/views.py
Updates C++ range checks, passes both bounds to listing views, and displays minimum and maximum standard tags. The view prints the constructed dataset to standard output.

Handle duplicate Library.key values before the lookup.

Library.key has no uniqueness constraint. If a workbook key matches multiple Library rows, libs.get(...) raises Library.MultipleObjectsReturned. The handler catches only Library.DoesNotExist, so the command exits before bulk_update. Define the duplicate-key policy, such as rejecting and reporting duplicates or updating all intended matches.

Hey Jeremy! Ran this locally with the migration and the import, and the filter does what the description says 🎉 Min C++11 with Max C++23 takes the list from 173 to 137 libraries. Develop still shows all of them.

develop this PR
develop, Min C++11 Max C++23 PR, Min C++11 Max C++23

Nothing blocking, but a few things I noticed:

  • 15 rows in the sheet have an empty CI max, so the import sets those to None. The first run is fine. A re-run wipes anything set by hand since then. Tried it with asio. json has a value in the sheet, so it stays put. Skipping blank cells would avoid it. CodeRabbit's note there covers a missing column, this is the blank-cell case.

    Import re-run sets asio back to None
  • No library version has its own max yet, so every release falls back to the library value, and the filter uses it too. The sheet comes from current CI, so on 1.85.0 Beast shows C++26. Do we want that, or only on the latest release?

    1.85.0 list, Beast shows C++26
  • Libraries with no max skip the max check, so Max C++26 still shows the 32 libraries we don't have a max for, like Asio. Is that what we want, or should they drop out once a max is picked?

    Max C++26 filter still shows Asio with Unknown max

Small ones:

  • The component demo still passes cpp_version (lines 348 and 360), so every example item there shows Unknown twice.
  • This comment still describes the old overlap filter.
  • logic in the sheet doesn't match the logic/tribool key, so Tribool gets no max.
  • Typo in the filename: verson

@julioest Thanks for the feedback. Nits addressed, and the import now doesn't set a version it doesn't have.

@rbbeeston Could you take a look a Julio's second and third point above? I think those are opinion/implementation questions rather than code ones per say.
