- SàT can now handle components
- plugin have now a "modes" key in PLUGIN_INFO where they declare if they can be used with clients and or components. They default to be client only.
- components are really similar to clients, but with some changes in behaviour:
* component has "entry point", which is a special plugin with a componentStart method, which is called just after component is connected
* trigger end with a different suffixes (e.g. profileConnected vs profileConnectedComponent), so a plugin which manage both clients and components can have different workflow
* for clients, only triggers of plugins handling client mode are launched
* for components, only triggers of plugins needed in dependencies are launched. They all must handle component mode.
* component have a sendHistory attribute (False by default) which can be set to True to allow saving sent messages into history
* for convenience, "client" is still used in method even if it can now be a component
* a new "component" boolean attribute tells if we have a component or a client
* components have to add themselve Message protocol
* roster and presence protocols are not added for components
* component default port is 5347 (which is Prosody's default port)
- asyncCreateProfile has been renamed for profileCreate, both to follow new naming convention and to prepare the transition to fully asynchronous bridge
- createProfile has a new "component" attribute. When used to create a component, it must be set to a component entry point
- jp: added --component argument to profile/create
- disconnect bridge method is now asynchronous, this way frontends can know when disconnection is finished
- new PI_* constants for PLUGIN_INFO values (not used everywhere yet)
- client/component connection workflow has been moved to their classes instead of being a host methods
- host.messageSend is now client.sendMessage, and former client.sendMessage is now client.sendMessageData.
- identities are now handled in client.identities list, so it can be updated dynamically by plugins (in the future, frontends should be able to update them too through bridge)
- profileConnecting* profileConnected* profileDisconnected* and getHandler now all use client instead of profile
- getClient now raise a NotFound error if client is not available
- errors ConnectedProfileError, NotConnectedProfileError anf ProfileKeyUnknownError renamed for consistency (all profile error must prefixed by Profile)
- launchAction fixed, the case where client is not available is handled
- kept actions are actuall1y removed on launchAction
- getParams and getParamsForCategory are removed from bridge: XMLUI is now used in place of the old params XML
- getParamsForCategory has also been removed internaly, as it is now unused, getParams is still used to construct the XMLUI
- a dedicated plugin now manage IP discovery, for now it uses external website, but it should implement XEP-0279 soon
- a permission is requested to user for calling an external website. Once the permission is granted (it's global), it is not asked anymore.
- the ip is discovered on demand, and cache is kept for the session.
- memory.params.getParamA has a new parameter use_default, which allow to get None when a parameter is not set, instead of the default value.
This allow to detected when we need to do the first permission request. memory.getParamA don't have this parameter.
/!\ not finished, everything is still instable !
- bridge: DBus bridge has been modified to allow blocking call to be called in the same way as asynchronous calls
- bridge: calls with a callback and no errback are now possible, default errback log the error
- constants: removed hack to manage presence without OrderedDict, as an OrderedDict like class has been implemented in Libervia
- core: getLastResource has been removed and replaced by getMainResource (there is a global better management of resources)
- various style improvments: use of constants when possible, fixed variable overlaps, import of module instead of direct class import
- frontends: printInfo and printMessage methods in (Quick)Chat are more generic (use of extra instead of timestamp)
- frontends: bridge creation and option parsing (command line arguments) are now specified by the frontend in QuickApp __init__
- frontends: ProfileManager manage a more complete plug sequence (some stuff formerly manage in contact_list have moved to ProfileManager)
- quick_frontend (quick_widgets): QuickWidgetsManager is now iterable (all widgets are then returned), or can return an iterator on a specific class (return all widgets of this class) with getWidgets
- frontends: tools.jid can now be used in Pyjamas, with some care
- frontends (XMLUI): profile is now managed
- core (memory): big improvment on entities cache management (and specially resource management)
- core (params/exceptions): added PermissionError
- various fixes and improvments, check diff for more details
- fix bug 3
- modify "Connection" params:
- rename "Server" to "Force server" and "Port" to "Force port"
- set the default value to empty string for both
- symbol 'd' was accessed without having been initialized when setting the empty value to a password which is not the profile password
- the method was actually returning without waiting for the parameter to be set
- the bridge method has been removed, now a plugin takes care of it with XMLUI callback system
- TODO: xmpp.RegisteringAuthenticator still needs to be fixed
/!\ This changeset updates the database version to 2 and modify the database content!
Description:
- new parameter General / Password to store the profile password
- profile password is initialized with XMPP password value, it is stored hashed
- bridge methods asyncCreateProfile/asyncConnect takes a new argument "password" (default = "")
- bridge method asyncConnect returns a boolean (True = connection already established, False = connection initiated)
- profile password is checked before initializing the XMPP connection
- new private individual parameter to store the personal encryption key of each profile
- personal key is randomly generated and encrypted with the profile password
- personal key is decrypted after profile authentification and stored in a Sessions instance
- personal key is used to encrypt/decrypt other passwords when they need to be retrieved/modified
- modifying the profile password re-encrypt the personal key
- Memory.setParam now returns a Deferred (the bridge method "setParam" is unchanged)
- Memory.asyncGetParamA eventually decrypts the password, Memory.getParamA would fail on a password parameter
TODO:
- if profile authentication is OK but XMPP authentication is KO, prompt the user for another XMPP password
- fix the method "registerNewAccount" (and move it to a plugin)
- remove bridge method "connect", sole "asyncConnect" should be used
