This is a prerequisite for #5630 that will add new API for process control

thanks a lot for the fix @sphuber !

When you say "the current implementation", do we know when this broke (or whether it was always like this)? This would be important to mention in the commit message.

And would it be possible to create a test for this?

When you say "the current implementation", do we know when this broke (or whether it was always like this)? This would be important to mention in the commit message.

The current with_daemon fixture was only used by a single test tests/cmdline/commands/test_process.py::test_pause_play_kill which was actually skipped (see #4731). The issue claims that it was an occasional breaking test and not consistently, so I am not sure what the exact reason was. Also, the bug that I am addressing here would only surface if used with an automatically generated temporary config and profile for the test. When using with a preconfigured test profile in the normal config directory, it should probably work. Although the new fixtures now nicely use the new DaemonClient API and make sure to stop the daemon process at the end of the session.

And would it be possible to create a test for this?

Not sure how to do that. Just testing that we can start and stop the daemon with the fixtures and reach it is not enough, because the bug only surface when using a temp test profile. With a preconfigured one it never showed. But not sure how to enforce a temp profile if people launch the test suite with a preconfigured profile.

All good!
I somehow glanced over the title of the issue and did not realize it is really just localized to the fixture.

Feel free to merge after changing the names, no further review needed from my side.

As you may have noticed @ltalirz , I have been working quite a bit more on this, as I wasn't fully satisfied and things weren't fully robust. I have separated out a few more commits to make it clearer what the prerequisite work was. It is now ready for a final review.

The crucial differences compared to your last review are:

  • Add env['PYTHONPATH'] = ':'.join(sys.path) to the DaemonClient.get_env method. This guarantees that the daemon will be able to import everything (such as workchains etc.)
  • Add a timeout check to start_daemon and stop_daemon to make sure that is_daemon_running returns the correct value. This is crucial for the started_daemon_client and stopped_daemon_client to provide a guarantee of the daemon status that the test can then rely on.

@ltalirz applied the fixes we discussed online. I messed around a bit with the signal module and how to signal to the parent process from the child process when it is done, but it is not obvious and could not get it to work immediately. I would suggest to leave that for another time since we are not changing the status quo here anyway.

Profile: make definition of daemon filepaths dynamic
c9ee1cd 
The filepaths relevant to the daemon that are provided through the
`Profile.filepaths` property, where defined statically at the module
level. This means that they would be fixed as soon as the `profile`
module would be first imported based on the `DAEMON_DIR` and the
`DAEMON_LOG_DIR` variables of the `settings` module.

This would be problematic if those variables were to be changed, because
they wouldn't be reflected by `Profile.filepaths`. An example of such a
case is the running of the test suite without a pre-configured test
profile. In this case, a temporary test profile is created from scratch
including the AiiDA configuration directory. Since the path of the
configuration directory changes, the filepaths of the daemon also
changed and this would have to be reflected by `Profile.filepaths`.

DaemonClient: add the get_env method
413b8c6 
The `DaemonClient.get_env` method is added which provides a copy of the
environment that is used by the process in which the client is running.
This is used by the `start_daemon` and `_start_daemon` methods to ensure
that the launched subprocesses use the exact same environment as the
process of the client.

The implementation is largely taken from the `get_env_with_venv_bin`
function of the `aiida.cmdline.utils.common` utility. This function is
deprecated since its is purely relevant to the daemon functionality and
so should just be contained in the `DaemonClient`.

There is a single important change and that is that `get_env` adds the
current content of `sys.path` to the `PYTHONPATH` key. This is important
as to guarantee that the daemon process will have the same module paths
as the main process. This ensures that all modules that are importable
by the main process, will also be importable by the daemon process.

DaemonClient: close CircusClient after call
0171a78 
The `CircusClient` opens a `zmq` socket which wasn't being closed. By
transforming `DaemonClient.client` into a context manager that
automatically calls `client.stop()` at the end, the socket is closed
properly. This gets rid of the multitude of `ResourceWarnings` at the
end of the test suite.
@sphuber
Fixtures: Add started_daemon_client and stopped_daemon_client
95eb1e5 
The fixtures `started_daemon_client` and `stopped_daemon_client` are
added which are function scoped fixtures that ensure that the daemon is
running or stopped, respectively. The fixtures return an instance of the
`DaemonClient` which can be used to interact further with the daemon
where necessary.

The fixtures both use the `daemon_client` fixture which is session
scoped and will ensure that the daemon is stopped at the end of the test
session. The `started_daemon_client` replaces the `with_daemon` fixture
which was not going through the `DaemonClient` designed for this
purpose.
