A way to force host was already available through hosts_dict, but for Android only in [android] section. It has now be moved in general conf as it can be useful in other cases, and improved to handle port too.
This way if something like this is present in sat.conf:
[DEFAULT]
hosts_dict = {"example.net": {"host": "127.0.0.1", "port": 7777}}
these values will be used and DNS check will be bypassed. A string can also be used for values, in this case only host is changed.
in-band was partially in core for historical reason, it has been moved to XEP-0077, and fixed. It is still incomplete, but should work for basic accounts creation.
- 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
- feedback method is a helper method to quickly display an info message to user
- sendMessage is the method used to send a message in the stream, using message data dictionary.
It inclure a trigger point which can't be cancelled, it is intended for e2e encryption method which don't do full stanza encryption.
- "send" trigger point is disabled as it is not used at the moment
SkipHistory was skipping all remaining triggers just to skip history, which is not the intented behaviour.
Now history can be skipped by setting mess_data[u'history'] = C.HISTORY_SKIP, this way we won't skip importants triggers.
When history is skipped, mess_data[u'extra'][u'history'] will be set to C.HISTORY_SKIP for frontends, so they can inform user that the message is not stored locally.
The current implementation only retrieve data from Bits of Binary, it's not used yet for sending.
When an XHTML-IM message is received (XEP-0071), all <img> are checked and if a cid scheme is found in src attribute the file is retrieved and the src is changed with cached file.
instead of having file caching handled individually by plugins, a generic module has been added in memory.
- Cache can be global or associated to a profile. In the later case, client.cache can be used.
- Cache are managed with unique ids (which can be any unique unicode, hash uuid, or something else).
- To know if a file is in cache, getFilePath is used: if the file is in cache, its absolute path is returned, else None is returned.
- To cache a file, cacheData is used with at list the source of cache (most of time plugin import name), and unique id. The method return file opened in binary writing mode (so cacheData can - and should - be used with "with" statement).
- 2 files will be created: a metadata file (named after the unique id), and the actual file.
- each file has a end of life time, after it, the cache is invalidated and the file must be requested again.
a couple of hacks have been used so backend can be launched on android using kivy
- config file (sat.conf) is been read on a specific dir, using a detection of Cagou domains in constants.py
- fixed crash when using sys.stdout.isatty in log_config.py
- Q&D fix for logging encoding issue on android
- when android is detected, the path/pattern to load plugins is modified
- SRV is not working at the moment on android. If the platform is detected, the host is used directly with default port. A hosts_dir configuration can be used in [android] section to map a specific ip to a host
- getRepositoryData in tools/utils return constant string on android. Proper repository data need to be copied during package building.
- [quick app] more robust failure handling on asyncConnect error
- [quick chat] default to utf-8 when getlocale doesn't return the actual locale.
/!\ several features are temporarily disabled, like notifications in frontends
next step in refactoring, with the following changes:
- jp: updated jp message to follow changes in backend/bridge
- jp: added --lang, --subject, --subject_lang, and --type options to jp message + fixed unicode handling for jid
- quick_frontend (QuickApp, QuickChat):
- follow backend changes
- refactored chat, message are now handled in OrderedDict and uid are kept so they can be updated
- Message and Occupant classes handle metadata, so frontend just have to display them
- Primitivus (Chat):
- follow backend/QuickFrontend changes
- info & standard messages are handled in the same MessageWidget class
- improved/simplified handling of messages, removed update() method
- user joined/left messages are merged when next to each other
- a separator is shown when message is received while widget is out of focus, so user can quickly see the new messages
- affiliation/role are shown (in a basic way for now) in occupants panel
- removed "/me" messages handling, as it will be done by a backend plugin
- message language is displayed when available (only one language per message for now)
- fixed :history and :search commands
- core (constants): new constants for messages type, XML namespace, entity type
- core: *Message methods renamed to follow new code sytle (e.g. sendMessageToBridge => messageSendToBridge)
- core (messages handling): fixed handling of language
- core (messages handling): mes_data['from'] and ['to'] are now jid.JID
- core (core.xmpp): reorganised message methods, added getNick() method to client.roster
- plugin text commands: fixed plugin and adapted to new messages behaviour. client is now used in arguments instead of profile
- plugins: added information for cancellation reason in CancelError calls
- plugin XEP-0045: various improvments, but this plugin still need work:
- trigger is used to avoid message already handled by the plugin to be handled a second time
- changed the way to handle history, the last message from DB is checked and we request only messages since this one, in seconds (thanks Poezio folks :))
- subject reception is waited before sending the roomJoined signal, this way we are sure that everything including history is ready
- cmd_* method now follow the new convention with client instead of profile
- roomUserJoined and roomUserLeft messages are removed, the events are now handled with info message with a "ROOM_USER_JOINED" info subtype
- probably other forgotten stuffs :p
/!\ database schema has been modified, do a backup before updating
message have been refactored, here are the main changes:
- languages are now handled
- all messages have an uid (internal to SàT)
- message updating is anticipated
- subject is now first class
- new naming scheme is used newMessage => messageNew, getHistory => historyGet, sendMessage => messageSend
- minimal compatibility refactoring in quick_frontend/Primitivus, better refactoring should follow
- threads handling
- delayed messages are saved into history
- info messages may also be saved in history (e.g. to keep track of people joining/leaving a room)
- duplicate messages should be avoided
- historyGet return messages in right order, no need to sort again
- plugins have been updated to follow new features, some of them need to be reworked (e.g. OTR)
- XEP-0203 (Delayed Delivery) is now fully handled in core, the plugin just handle disco and creation of a delay element
- /!\ jp and Libervia are currently broken, as some features of Primitivus
It has been put in one huge commit to avoid breaking messaging between changes.
This is the main part of message refactoring, other commits will follow to take profit of the new features/behaviour.
- added a new mechanism to keep actions until they are answered (or timeout-ed)
- keep_id must be explicitly used on actionNew
- actionsGet is used to retrive these actions
- the mechanism is used in deferXMLUI
- getProgress has been renamed to progressGet to follown new naming convention
- new signals: progressStarted, progressFinished and progressError to indicate state of progressing events
- new method progressGetAll to get all progressing events of all profile (or only one profile)
- remove parameter "online" (can be guess from "presence" value)
- process "statuses" dict in quick_frontend, so this method can get a simple unicode "status"
- add C.PRESENCE_STATUSES_DEFAULT to define the key to use for fallback status
- updated methods to no use anymore methods deprecated in Wokkel
- use of full jid when it make sense instead of bare jid
- getContacts, updateContact and delContact are now asynchronous
