getAvatar can be used to do the whole process to get avatar file (or empty string if not avatar is found) : it first look in cache and request vCard if nothing is found.
- new getAvatar method in QuickApp which request vCard if avatar if needed and return default avatar is no avatar is found
- frontends based on quick frontend can now specify if they handle avatar or not using AVATARS_HANDLER
- when avatar is updated, occupant widget(s) and all message widget(s) of the concerned entity are updated
- (XEP-0045): join defered is now fired when room is full joined and history is available
- (XEP-0045): mucJOIN signature has changed, it now returns the same arguments as mucRoomJoined and a boolean which is True if the room was alread joined
- quick frontend (app, chat): adapted code to new changes
- get_cache has a new argument "bare_default"
- value of resource is returned if full jid is used. None is returned if not found and bare_default is False, bare jid value is returned if not found and bare_default is True
at the end it adds complications to handle XEP-0245 in backend (because edge cases must be handled: info type with group chat, history when message is info but for a group chat, etc) while it's trivial to handle it in frontend.
So /me detection is handled in QuickFrontend and cmd_me is back into plugin_misc_text_commands, it is the choice of the frontend to display or not the "/me" (for frontends based on QuickFrontend it remains automatic).
jp/debug hierarchy contain commands useful for developping and debugging.
first commands are jp/debug/bridge:
- "method" allows to call a bridge method, args are parsed as python arguments (using eval).
- "signal" do the same to send a signal from backend, using the new debug plugin.
this plugin implement some helper tools/bridge method to make development and debugging easier.
The first implemented bridge method, debugFakeSignal, allow to send a signal from the backend, simulating some events in the frontends.
this attribute indicate if the data is a result of a user interaction or an event from the backend (in the later case, the frontend can choose to avoid interrupting the user).
Internally (in XMLUI), "FROM_BACKEND" is added to XMLUI.flags if the UI result from a backend event.
