broken with: Anki 2.1.22 and AB version from ankiweb from 2020-02-21: 'CardStats' object has no attribute 'col'

[ijgnd]

tldr:

• AB from ankiweb is listed as 2.1.0-2.1.23 (Updated 2020-02-21): This version works in 2.1.21 but not in 2.1.22.
• proposed fix: Change the compatibility info on ankiweb from 2.1.0-2.1.23 to 2.1.0-2.1.21. Then we have no version for .22 and .23 but it's probably better to have no version than a broken verison. The next AB version for 2.1.24-2.1.34 really does not work with 2.1.22.

 

 

Details:

I just tested with Anki 2.1.22 and just the AB add-on that I donwload from ankiweb today. The ankiweb compatibility listing looks like this as of 2022-09-27:

Supported Anki versions:
    2.1.0-2.1.23 (Updated 2020-02-21)
    2.1.24-2.1.34 (Updated 2020-10-04)
    2.1.35-2.1.40 (Updated 2020-11-08)
    2.1.41-2.1.44 (Updated 2022-09-27)
    2.1.45-2.1.50+ (Updated 2022-09-27)

I get this error message for each card many times:

Error
An error occurred. Please start Anki while holding down the shift key, which will temporarily disable the add-ons you have installed.
If the issue only occurs when add-ons are enabled, please use the Tools > Add-ons menu item to disable some add-ons and restart Anki, repeating until you discover the add-on that is causing the problem.
When you've discovered the add-on that is causing the problem, please report the issue on the [add-on support site](https://help.ankiweb.net/discussions/add-ons/).

AttributeError: 'CardStats' object has no attribute 'col'

The affected line return cs.time(-ivl) has been in AB since 2014, see commit. So the problem is that the add-on is not adjusted to a change in Anki that happened between 2.1.21 and 2.1.22.

no one reported this for over 2.5 years so there's no point in making an add-on version for 2.1.22

[ijgnd]

the ankiweb listing has been fixed in 2022-09 so that there's no AB version for 2.1.23 anymore. This is no longer relevant.
