- former method was misnamed as it was used to convert data form element to XMLUI, so it has been renamed to dataFormEltResult2XMLUI
- dataFormResult2XMLUI is now use to convert wokkel.data_form.Form instances to XMLUI
- 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
- display all menu with the first letter in upper case
- moved Search directory from Service to Contacts
- moved "Join room" from Communication to Groups
- moved Bookmarks from Communication to Groups
- a note without payload in a completed command appear in a dialog. If there is a unique note, it's level is used, else info dialog is used with merged notes
- if there is a data form payload, notes are added to form's instructions
- hashing algorithm of XEP-0115 has been including in core
- our own hash is still calculated by XEP-0115 and can be regenerated with XEP_0115.recalculateHash
- old discovery methods have been removed. Now the following methods are used:
- hasFeature: tell if a feature is available for an entity
- getDiscoInfos: self explaining
- getDiscoItems: self explaining
- findServiceEntities: return all available items of an entity which given (category, type)
- findFeaturesSet: search for a set of features in entity + entity's items
all these methods are asynchronous, and manage cache automatically
- XEP-0115 manage in a better way hashes, and now use a trigger for presence instead of monkey patch
- new FeatureNotFound exception, when we want to do something which is not available
- refactored client initialisation sequence, removed client.initialized Deferred
- added constant APP_URL
- test_plugin_xep_0033.py has been temporarly deactivated, the time to adapt it
- lot of cleaning
- XMLUI now use objects with 2 main classes: widgets (button, label, etc), and container which contain widgets according to a layout
- widgets and containers classes are found through introspection, thereby it's really easy to add a new one
- there is still the AddWidgetName helper, for example AddText('jid', 'test@example.net') will add a StringWidget with name "jid" and default value "test@example.net"
- container can be inside other containers. changeContainer change the first parent container
- menu now use generic callback system, with extra data
- asyncMenuCall is removed in favor of launchAction
- menu_id (== callback_id) is used to identify menu instead of category/name/type tuple
- i18n is managed throught deferred translation, and returned with _i18n suffix
e.g.: menu (D_('File'), D_('Open')): (u'File', u'Open') is menu_path, (u'Fichier', u'Ouvrir') is french menu_path_i18n.
- type actually can have the following values:
- NORMAL: classical menu
- JID_CONTEXT: contextual menu, used with any jid
- ROSTER_JID_CONTEXT: like JID_CONTEXT, but restricted to jids in roster.
- ROSTER_GROUP_CONTEXT: contextual menu, use with groups
- security_limit is used, in the same way as for parameters
- when using importMenu, callback can be an actual callback, or one already registered with registerCallback
- _() is no more installed in __builtin__
- instead, there is a new sat.core.i18n module
- added D_() method for deferred translation
- languageSwitch method allow to dynamically change translation language
- import gettext is tested against ImportError, and dummy methods are used when not available (mainly useful for Libervia)
