Raw Blame History

PyLink 0.9.2

Tagged as 0.9.2 by GLolol

The “Acorn” release.

Changes from 0.9.1

Bug fixes

  • Relay now treats {} as valid characters in nicks.
  • Fixed services login tracking for older Anope services + UnrealIRCd. Previously, PyLink would incorrectly store login timestamps as the account name, instead of the user’s nick.
  • Relay now normalizes / to . in hostnames on IRCd-Hybrid.
  • Cloaked hosts for UnrealIRCd 3.2 users are now applied instead of the real host being visible.

PyLink 0.9.1

Tagged as 0.9.1 by GLolol on 2016-08-07T03:05:01Z

Important, backwards incompatible changes for those upgrading from 0.8.x!

  • The configuration file is now pylink.yml by default, instead of config.yml.
  • PyLink now requires installing itself as a module, instead of simply running from source. Do this via python3 setup.py install --user.
  • The use_experimental_whois option for InspIRCd servers and the spawn_servers option in Relay have been removed, as they are now implied.

Changes from 0.9.0

Bug fixes

  • Fixed various bugs in channel TS handling (this should reduce mode desyncs with relay).
  • protocols/unreal: fixed services account support for older services (e.g. Anope < 2.0) that don’t explicitly use account names for logins (#296).
  • Mode changes are no longer sorted alphabetically when relayed: sorting now only applies for displaying a list of modes, such as in WHOIS.
  • Invalid autojoin channels are now ignored, instead of passing potentially invalid data to the IRCd.

Feature changes

  • setup.py now explicitly forbids installing on Python 2 (#297).
  • The nefarious protocol module now forwards MODE and KICK through servers if the sender isn’t opped, preventing many mode bounces, kick failures, and HACK server notices.

Internal fixes / improvements

  • protocols/hybrid,ts6,unreal: Casemapping-specific lowercasing is now consistently used for channel names
  • Relay now catches errors on network removal and ignores them.
  • Channels names are now case normalized when receiving @#channel messages.

Misc. changes

  • Minor example configuration updates, including a mention of passwordless UnrealIRCd links by setting recvpass and sendpass to *.

PyLink 0.9.0

Tagged as 0.9.0 by GLolol on 2016-07-25T05:49:55Z

Important, backwards incompatible changes for those upgrading from 0.8.x!

  • The configuration file is now pylink.yml by default, instead of config.yml.
  • PyLink now requires installing itself as a module, instead of simply running from source. Do this via python3 setup.py install --user.
  • The use_experimental_whois option for InspIRCd servers and the spawn_servers option in Relay have been removed, as they are now implied.

Changes from 0.9-beta1

Added / changed / removed features
  • PyLink is now slightly more descriptive if you try to start it with missing dependencies or a missing conf file.
  • The PyLink API reference is now at https://pylink.github.io/ instead of in docs/technical.
  • The exec and eval commands now have access to the pylinkirc and importlib imports by default.
  • jupe from the opercmds plugin now requires the admin login instead of just oper.
  • opercmds: kick now treat channels case insensitively.
  • Documentation update: there are now guides to Automode and PyLink’s Services API.
Bug fixes
  • Fixed the reload command (again).
  • Fixed compatibility with ircmatch 1.2: PyLink previously used features that were only available in the unreleased Git version.
  • The identify command now responds with NOTICE instead of PM, behaving like any other command. Thanks to @Techman- for pointing this out.
  • The identify command must be called in private again.
  • Relay now shows secret channels in linked to those inside the channel, regardless of whether they’re opered.
  • $channel:#channel:prefixmode exttarget matching no longer raises errors if the target isn’t in the specified channel.
Internal improvements
  • Redone version handling so __init__.py isn’t committed anymore.
  • update.sh now passes arguments to the pylink launcher.

PyLink 0.9-beta1

Tagged as 0.9-beta1 by GLolol on 2016-07-14T02:11:07Z

Important, backwards incompatible changes for those upgrading from 0.8.x

  • The configuration file is now pylink.yml by default, instead of config.yml.
  • PyLink now requires installing itself as a module, instead of simply running from source. Do this via python3 setup.py install --user.

Changes from 0.9-alpha1

Added / changed / removed features
  • The use_experimental_whois option for InspIRCd servers is removed, and is now implied.
  • New config option bot: whois_show_extensions_to_bots, which optionally disables extended WHOIS replies for users marked as a bot (+B).
    • This increases security when relay is enabled, for bots that look for services logins in WHOIS.
  • Automode has new clearacc and syncacc commands, for clearing and syncing access lists respectively.
  • Relay now allows nick tagging to be turned off by default, via the option relay: tag_nicks (#116)
    • This is experimental, and nick tagging is still enabled by default.
    • Any attempts to KILL or SVSNICK a relay client are treated to force tag a nick, so things like /ns release, /ns ghost, and /ns regain should work with network services.
  • Automode now only sends one MODE command per sync, to prevent changes from flooding channels.
  • Relay separators can now be configured globally (relay: separator option), with server-specific overriding that value if given.
Bug fixes
  • corecommands: fix unload failing to remove hooks and commands (0.9.x regression).
  • protocols/nefarious: only send EOB_ACK to the direct uplink, preventing stray “acknowledged end of net.burst” messages from showing up. Thanks to Speakz on Evilnet IRC for reporting.
  • protocols/unreal: fix server name of the uplink server not being saved (#268)
  • Channel prefixes are now sorted in WHOIS output (i.e. no more wrong @~#channel), and only the highest prefix shown
  • Fixed issues in internal channel mode tracking (c1cd6f4 58d71b0)
  • WHOIS requests to the PyLink server for clients that aren’t PyLink bots now work (syntax: /raw whois pylink.server somenick). “No such nick” errors are also sent when the target is missing, instead of raising warnings.
    • These WHOIS responses were previously sent from the wrong source (the server that the client was on, instead of the PyLink server), causing them to be ignored if they were going the wrong way.
  • Automode now treat channels case insensitively in delacc.
  • ascii and rfc1459 case mappings now treat Unicode case sensitively, in the same way an IRCd would.
Internal improvements
  • Removed inaccurate references to signon time in WHOIS and elsewhere.
  • Changes to user timestamps are now tracked on NICK and SAVE commands
  • Relay now creates relay clones with the current time as nick TS, instead of the origin user’s TS.
    • This has the effect of purposely losing nick collisions against local users, so that it’s easier to reclaim nicks.

PyLink 0.9-alpha1

Tagged as 0.9-alpha1 by GLolol on 2016-07-09T07:27:47Z

Summary of changes from 0.8.x

Backwards incompatible changes
  • Configuration file is now pylink.yml by default, instead of config.yml.
  • PyLink now requires installing itself as a module, instead of simply running from source. Do this via python3 setup.py install --user.
Added / changed / removed features
  • New ctcp plugin, handling CTCP VERSION and PING (and perhaps an easter egg?!)
  • New automode plugin, implementing basic channel ACL by assigning prefix modes like +o to hostmasks and exttargets.
  • New exttarget support: see https://github.com/GLolol/PyLink/blob/0.9-alpha1/coremods/exttargets.py#L15 for a list of supported ones.
  • Relay can now handle messages sent by users not in a target channel (e.g. for channels marked -n)
  • Relay subserver spawning is now always on - the spawn_servers option is removed
  • Relay can now optionally show netsplits from remote networks, using a show_netsplits option in the relay: block
  • The channels configuration option in server: blocks is now optional, and defaults to no channels if not specified
  • The maxnicklen configuration option is also now optional, with a default value of 30 characters.
  • --version, --no-pid, and --help are now implemented by PyLink’s command line script
  • Test cases were dropped - they were broken and poorly maintained.
  • CPUlimit wrapper scripts were removed.
  • Service bots now allow plugins to define service descriptions and mark commands as featured when adding them.
  • Command replies for services bots are now consolidated into core. In general, FANTASY commands now reply in channel as PRIVMSG, while all commands sent in PM reply as private notices.
  • protocols/inspircd: new use_experimental_whois server option, which forces PyLink to handle WHOIS requests locally. This allows relay WHOIS extensions like account name and origin server name (whois_show_* options) to actually work on InspIRCd networks.
  • PyLink can now optionally protect its services clients by setting servprotect modes (InspIRCd umode +k, +S elsewhere). The option for this is protect_services in the bot: block.
  • The networks now deletes IRC objects when disconnect is used. To reconnect all disconnected networks, use the rehash command.
  • Relay now hides disconnected leaf networks from LINKED output.
Bug fixes
  • Services bots will now ignore unhandled CTCP requests, instead of responding with “Unknown command”
  • The sid field for TS6 servers now accepts unquoted numeric SIDs (integers) by normalize the SID to a string
  • protocols/nefarious: fix wrong variable in “/join 0” handling causing crashes
  • The PyLink bot now rejoins relay channels when it is killed
  • protocols/ts6: fix wrong args in TB handling
Internal improvements
  • coreplugin.py is split into coremods/, with many different submodules for easier maintenance.
  • Rewritten channel TS handling to be more concise and reusable
  • protocols/unreal: warn about mode bounces instead of fighting with the uplink
  • protocols/ts6, protocols/nefarious: use protocol-specific ban bursting instead of sending a regular MODE
  • Irc.parseModes() now handles strings given as the mode list properly, instead of only accepting a list of modestring arguments
  • SQUIT handlers now return an uplink field with the SID of the server that the target was split from
  • protocols/ts6: send 12 users (SJOIN) and 10 modes (TMODE) per line, instead of 10 and 9 respectively
  • Relay is now slightly more careful when normalizing nicks: they can’t have invalid characters, start with a hyphen (-), etc.
  • Modes are now sorted when joined. You’ll now see things like +Hiow instead of +wHoi
  • protocols/inspircd: services clients with mode +k now have the “Network Service” oper type, in WHOIS replies and elsewhere
  • SQUIT and KILL handling are moved into a protocols/ircs2s.py module, as the handling is basically the same on both TS6 and P10.
  • protocols/nefarious,ts6,unreal: KILL handling (inbound & outbound) now supports kill paths and formats kill reasons properly
  • protocols: encapsulated (ENCAP) commands are now implicitly expanded, so protocol modules no longer need to bother with IF statement chains in a handle_encap()

  • Support IPv6 connections in config.
  • The offending hook data is now logged whenever a hook function errors, for more convenient debugging.
  • Add sanity checks for autoconnect - delay has to be at least 1 second now, to prevent connect floods that go on without any delay in between!
  • Add irc.reply() to send command replies to callers in the right context (channel or PM).
  • More base commands are in coreplugin instead of commands.py now, making the latter reloadable without restart.
  • Don’t crash when REHASH loads a config file that’s invalid.
  • utils: Replace imp (deprecated) with importlib.

Plugins

  • commands: Add a command to set log level (#124).
  • commands: Update irc.botdata (bot: data in config) in REHASH.
  • fantasy: Support nick prefixes (e.g. PyLink: help), along with a configurable prefix.

Protocols

  • protocols/TS6: Fix SQUIT handling and introduction of SID-less servers (i.e. atheme’s /os JUPE) (#119)
  • protocols/unreal: Add (experimental) support for UnrealIRCd 4.0.x!
  • plugins: More complete INFO logging: plugin loading/unloading, unknown commands called, successful operups

The “prevent PyLink from wrecking my server’s CPU” release.

Mostly bug fixes here, with a couple of scripts added (start-cpulimit.sh and kill.sh) added to assist running PyLink under the protection of CPUlimit. :)

New features

  • relay: Block most duplicate modes from being relayed (#71)

Fixes

  • relay: quit users who aren’t on any shared channels after KICK (71a3464)
  • Use RFC1459 for case mapping on InspIRCd (01220b3)
  • relay: Fix handling of local SAVE (e4da670) and KILL (a4da9b5) commands

  • relay: Fix command arguments of DELINK on home networks (c07cfb1)
  • relay: SJOIN users once, and only once (#71, b681a67)

  • Added WHOIS handling support for TS6 IRCds.
  • ts6: fix handling of SID, CHGHOST, and SQUIT commands.
  • Support noctcp (mode +C) on charybdis, and wallops (+w) in relay.

PyLink 0.2.0-dev

Tagged as 0.2.0-dev by GLolol on 2015-07-23T04:44:17Z

Many changes in this development release, including:

  • New ts6 protocol module, for charybdis 3.x.
  • relay: add nick collision handling via SAVE (#61).
  • relay: trivial tasks like TOPIC, MODE, KICK and PART no longer spawn new clients for their senders, and are routed through the pseudoserver when applicable instead (e76d31d c0f8259).
  • Irc: be safer against UnicodeDecodeError caused by socket.recv() cutoff, by decoding each individual line instead (06d17d5).
  • relay: make the nick/net separator a per-network config option. (ad34f6c).
  • relay: Use a whitelist when it comes to relaying modes (#54), and strip out bans that don’t match nick!user@host syntax (#55).
  • relay: Handle user mode changes (#64).
  • Support different case mappings for nicknames (RFC1459 vs ASCII) (#75).
  • inspircd: remove RSQUIT command handler (3494d4f).

And of course, many, many bug fixes! (relay should now work properly with more than 2 networks, for example…)

  • Log output to log/pylink.log, along with console (#52, 61804b1 fbc2fbf)
  • main/coreplugin: use log.exception() instead of traceback.print_exc(), so logs aren’t only printed to screen (536366d)
  • relay: don’t relay messages sent to the PyLink client (688675d)
  • relay: add a save command, and make rescheduling optional in exportDB() (c00da49)

    • New server pingfreq option is introduced to set the time between PINGs.
  • relay: Only spawn clients if they share a channel, and quit them when they leave all shared channels (cf32461)
  • Support autoreconnecting to networks! A new autoconnect server setting is added to set autoconnect delay.
  • New PYLINK_DISCONNECT hook to keep track of network disconnections (3f6f78b)
