- registerTextCommands can be called by a plugin in its __init__ method, it looks for methods starting with "cmd_" and register them as new commands
- addWhoIsCb: add a callback to /whois command, the callback can complete whois informations
- plugins parrot, XEP-0045 and XEP-0092 now manage their own commands
- "recommendations" key can be used in PLUGIN_INFO
- if a plugin can't be found an ImportError is raised if it's a dependency, if it's a recommendation only a warning message is shown, and plugins importation continue
- new Updater class check database consistency (by calculating a hash on the .schema), and updates base if necessary
- database now has a version (1 for current, 0 will be for 0.3's database), for each change this version will be increased
- creation statements and update statements are in the form of dict of dict with tuples. There is a help text at the top of the module to explain how it works
- if we are on a development version, the updater try to update the database automaticaly (without deleting table or columns). The Updater.generateUpdateData method can be used to ease the creation of update data (i.e. the dictionary at the top, see the one for the key 1 for an example).
- if there is an inconsistency, an exception is raised, and a message indicate the SQL statements that should fix the situation.
- well... this is rather complicated, a KISS method would maybe have been better. The future will say if we need to simplify it :-/
- new DatabaseError exception
- 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)
- launchAction is now async, and return a dictionary for its result
- no more action_id, actionResult* are deprecated
- callback system is about to be unified
- frontends pass the recipients in the extra parameter of sendMessage
- backend checks if the target server supports the feature (this is not done yet by prosody plugin)
- features and identities are cached per profile and server
- messages are duplicated in history for now (TODO: redesign the database)
- echos signals are also duplicated to the sender (FIXME)
- treaments deferred can be used by plugins to change XML elements before sending them, in a similar way as for newMessage
- sendMessageXml trigger became useless, so it as been removed in favor of the new deferred
- added extra data in getHistory return value
- extra data is saved in database
/!\ WARNING: DATABASE SCHEMA HAS CHANGED /!\
to update sqlite database: ALTER TABLE history ADD COLUMN extra BLOB;
