lumberyard-employee-dm f648cb1fd8 Update the FileIO Aliases (#4186)
* Update the FileIOAlias naming to make the cache, project root and engine
root paths more clear

The alias of `@root@`, `@assets@`, and `@projectplatformcache@` has been
collapsed to `@projectproductassets@`

The alias of `@devroot@` and `@engroot@` has been collapsed to
`@engroot@`

The alias of `@devassets@` and `@projectroot@` has been collapsed to
`@projectroot@`

* Updated use of devassets and devroot properties in python

Those properties now use projectroot and engroot

The ResolvePath function now just appends the @projectproductassets@
alias with the input path

* Added a deprecated alias map to the FileIO System

When a deprecated alias is accessed, the FileIO System logs an AZ_Error and indicates the alias that should be used

* Updated python test scripts to use the projectroot binding

Retrieving the AutomatedTesting project path based on "<devroot>/AutomatedTesting" has been removed.

* Updated references to devroot and devgame within the codebase

The GetAbsoluteDevGameFolderPath functions has been replaced with direct call to AZ::Utils::GetProjectPath

* Removed newly added AppendPathParts function
Removed the Path constructors which accepts a PathIterable instance

The PathIterable isn't safe to return to a user of the Path class as it might be referencing temporary paths supplied via PathView arguments

* Fixed unused parameter warning

* Undid change to the LexicallyProximate function to set the path result to the base path.

It needs to return the *this path if the pathResult is empty

Signed-off-by: lumberyard-employee-dm <56135373+lumberyard-employee-dm@users.noreply.github.com>

* Moved the LocalFileIO ConvertToAbsolutePath implementations to AZ::Utils

Fixed the ConvertToAbsolutePath implementation for Unix platforms to use a buffer that is size PATH_MAX(4096 on all our supported Unix platforms).
Because the buffer before was AZ::IO::MaxPathLength which as a size of 1024, this was resulting in the Unix `realpath` function smashing the stack when it converts a path to an absolute path that is longer than 1024 characters

* Fixed for DeprecatedAlaisesKeyVisitor Visit function causing the non string_view overloads being hidden causing a hidden base class function warning

Signed-off-by: lumberyard-employee-dm <56135373+lumberyard-employee-dm@users.noreply.github.com>

* Changed the AWSMetricsGemMock to use a temporary for writing test assets

Signed-off-by: lumberyard-employee-dm <56135373+lumberyard-employee-dm@users.noreply.github.com>

* Updated the LocalFileIO::ResolvePath function to use HasRootPath to determine if a path starts with a root path such as "D:", "D:/" or "/"

IsAbsolute was not the corect check as the path of "D:" is a relative
path.
To be absolute according to the Windows the path must have a root
directory. i.e "D:/" or "D:\"

* Removed absolute path comment from LocalFile_UnixLike.cpp and LocalFile_Android.cpp FindFiles implementations

Signed-off-by: lumberyard-employee-dm <56135373+lumberyard-employee-dm@users.noreply.github.com>

* Updated the ScriptCanvas Upgrade Tool to output backed up files to the
Project User Path instead of the engine root

@engroot@ alias instead of @projectproductassets@/.. alias when
referring to the LmbrCentral Gem source path

Signed-off-by: lumberyard-employee-dm <56135373+lumberyard-employee-dm@users.noreply.github.com>

* Updated references to the Project Asset Cache in the PythonTests.

Those tests no longer use the logic `azlmbr.paths.projectroot / "Cache" / "pc"` to retrieve a path to the cache root but instead the `azlmbr.paths.projectproductassets` constant

* Fixed the FileIO Deprecated Alias test on Windows

Updated the PhysX EditorSystemComponent.cpp to query the ProjectPath
form the SettingsRegistry.

Release Notes 1.0

This gem adds an Editor-only system to reflect editor-flagged Behavior Class methods to a Python VM running in the Lumberyard Editor. The gem will replace the current Boost Python bindings in the Editor plus to allow gem authors to reflect automation methods to Python for use in automate tests or workflows. It encapsulates the Python Virtual Machine (VM) (currently at version 3.3) and uses a modern C++ binding library named pybind11 to hook up the behavior methods to Python.

Documentation

The gem works when a product team adds it to a project; this is not a required gem. This will enable a system component that will enumerate all the BehaviorClass methods registered with an “Editor” flag. The gem will also offer new console commands to allow Editor users to execute automation scripts.

New Third Party Libraries

The gem includes two new 3rd Party Libraries:

  • Python VM 3.3.5

    • $\dev\Gems\EditorPythonBindings\3rdParty\python33
    • Windows-Only
  • PyBind11

Reference

The gem comes with new EBuses and a console commands.

EditorPythonBindings.EditorPythonBindingsNotifications

The gem uses this EBus to send out notifications during the VMs life cycle. When another gem wants to add custom Python modules to the system it can respond to these APIs to properly install or handle the Python environment.

The API:

  • OnPreInitialize() - sent when the Python VM is about to start right after the Editor has been initialized
  • OnPostInitialize() - sent when the Python VM properly initialized
  • OnPreFinalize() - sent when the Python VM is about to shut down; a good place to clean up resource borrowed from the Python VM
  • OnPostFinalize() - sent when the Python VM shut down cleanly
  • OnImportModule(module) - sent when any module is being imported from Python

AzToolsFramework.EditorPythonRunnerRequestBus

Coders use this bus to run Python scripts that execute in the EditorPythonBinding gem. This bus provides API to run either from a file or from a buffer.

The API:

  • ExecuteByString(string) runs a string buffer in the Python VM; it returns no value
  • ExecuteByFilename(string) loads a file off of the disk to execute in the Python VM; the call returns no value. The filename can contain an alias such as @projectroot@ to execute a project relative file inside the Editor

New Console Commands

The EditorPythonBindings gem offers two new console commands to the Editor:

  • pyRunScript - console command is used to execute a script file from disk; it does not accept script arguments
