|

Version 0.83.0rc1
|
||||
|
||||
There have been some fairly significant changes since our last release.
|
||||
|
||||
First, plugins are now a directory of files rather than a single file.
|
||||
This makes it much easier for an individual plugin to supply any
|
||||
3rd-party modules it may depend on and resolves some bugs we had with
|
||||
reloading plugins. supybot-plugin-create (nee supybot-newplugin) has
|
||||
been updated to reflect this. A side effect of using a directory-based
|
||||
plugin is that @load/@reload are now case-sensitive. "@load foo" is not
|
||||
the same as "@load Foo".
|
||||
|
||||
As part of the conversion to the new plugin format, some plugins were
|
||||
broken up into more focused plugins. Also, not all of the plugins that
|
||||
we used to ship are part of this release. Some we moved to the
|
||||
supybot-plugins package and some others (which would be candidates for
|
||||
supybot-plugins) have yet to be converted to the new format.
|
||||
|
||||
Second, we've updated the scripts that ship with Supybot. As noted in
|
||||
the previous section, supybot-newplugin is now named
|
||||
supybot-plugin-create. We've also added the following scripts:
|
||||
|
||||
supybot-botchk - Handy script for starting the bot and keeping it
|
||||
running. Ideal for having cron automatically start the
|
||||
bot.
|
||||
supybot-plugin-doc - Generates documentation for the specified
|
||||
plugin(s). Currently, the documentation is
|
||||
generated using Structured TeXt so that it can
|
||||
easily be uploaded to our website.
|
||||
supybot-plugin-package - The beginning of a script to make a plugin
|
||||
package which can be uploaded to our website
|
||||
for general consumption.
|
||||
supybot-test - Runs a plugin's test suite.
|
||||
|
||||
Third, we've broken supybot.utils into focused sub-modules. There's no
|
||||
longer a supybot.fix module and we now have the following modules:
|
||||
|
||||
supybot.utils.file - utilities for dealing with files (e.g. the old
|
||||
supybot.utils.transactionalFile is now
|
||||
supybot.utils.file.AtomicFile)
|
||||
supybot.utils.iter - utilities for dealing with iterables (all, any,
|
||||
partition, groupBy, choice, etc)
|
||||
supybot.utils.gen - general purpose utilities which are imported into
|
||||
the supybot.utils namespace
|
||||
supybot.utils.net - utilities for dealing with the network
|
||||
supybot.utils.python - utilities for dealing with Python
|
||||
supybot.utils.seq - utilities for dealing with sequences
|
||||
supybot.utils.str - utilities for dealing with strings (including our
|
||||
new format() function)
|
||||
supybot.utils.structures - general purpose structures used in Supybot
|
||||
supybot.utils.web - utilities for dealing with the web (used to be
|
||||
supybot.webutils)
|
||||
|
||||
Fourth, we've added source-nested plugins (using the class
|
||||
callbacks.Commands). This allows you to group similar commands
|
||||
together. Some examples are:
|
||||
|
||||
Channel.{ban add,ban list,ban remove}
|
||||
User.{hostmask add,hostmask list,hostmask remove}
|
||||
|
||||
Fifth, we've removed the privmsgs module. All of the functionality
|
||||
that was offered in that module is now available by using commands.wrap.
|
||||
Use of this is documented at:
|
||||
http://supybot.com/documentation/help/tutorial/wrap
|
||||
|
||||
Sixth, we've renamed some plugin-related API changes. Some classes had
|
||||
their names changed. The old names are still available for
|
||||
backwards-compatibility.
|
||||
|
||||
callbacks.Privmsg -> callbacks.Plugin
|
||||
callbacks.PrivmsgCommandAndRegexp -> callbacks.PluginRegexp
|
||||
callbacks.IrcObjectProxy -> callbacks.NestedCommandsIrcProxy
|
||||
|
||||
callbacks.PrivmsgRegexp was removed since its functionality is covered
|
||||
by setting using PluginRegexp.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, the prototype for a plugin's __init__ method changed:
|
||||
|
||||
def __init__(self): -> def __init__(self, irc):
|
||||
|
||||
Remember to pass the irc object on when you call the parent class's
|
||||
__init__ method.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Version 0.80.0
|
||||
|
||||
We *finally* hit 0.80.0! This release is completely compatible with
