keyword options of the Menu() initialization call you can start the
menu at different places in the menu definition file, adjust if the
menu command should overload the normal commands or not, etc.</p>
<p>The <strong>persistent</strong> keyword will make the menu survive a server reboot.
It is <strong>False</strong> by default. Note that if using persistent mode, every
node and callback in the menu must be possible to be <em>pickled</em>, this
excludes e.g. callables that are class methods or functions defined
dynamically or as part of another function. In non-persistent mode
no such restrictions exist.</p>
<p>The menu is defined in a module (this can be the same module as the
command definition too) with function definitions:</p>

<h2>Menu generation from template string<a class="headerlink" href="#menu-generation-from-template-string" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>

<p>For maximum flexibility you can inject normally-created nodes in the menu tree
before passing it to EvMenu. If that’s not needed, you can also create a menu
in one step with:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">evmenu</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">template2menu</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">caller</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">menu_template</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">goto_callables</span><span class="p">)</span>

<p>The <strong>goto_callables</strong> is a mapping <strong>{“funcname”: callable, …}</strong>, where each
callable must be a module-global function on the form
<strong>funcname(caller, raw_string, **kwargs)</strong> (like any goto-callable). The
<strong>menu_template</strong> is a multi-line string on the following form:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>## node start
This is the text of the start node.
The text area can have multiple lines, line breaks etc.
Each option below is one of these forms
key: desc -&gt; gotostr_or_func
key: gotostr_or_func
&gt;: gotostr_or_func
&gt; glob/regex: gotostr_or_func
## options
# comments are only allowed from beginning of line.
# Indenting is not necessary, but good for readability

# the -&gt; can be ignored if there is no desc

<p>Each menu node is defined by a <strong># node &lt;name&gt;</strong> containing the text of the node,
followed by <strong>## options</strong> Also <strong>## NODE</strong> and <strong>## OPTIONS</strong> work. No python code
logics is allowed in the template, this code is not evaluated but parsed. More
advanced dynamic usage requires a full node-function (which can be added to the
generated dict, as said).</p>
<p>Adding <strong>(..)</strong> to a goto treats it as a callable and it must then be included in
the <strong>goto_callable</strong> mapping. Only named keywords (or no args at all) are
allowed, these will be added to the <strong>**kwargs</strong> going into the callable. Quoting
strings is only needed if wanting to pass strippable spaces, otherwise the
key:values will be converted to strings/numbers with literal_eval before passed
into the callable.</p>

<dt class="field-odd">Parameters</dt>
<dd class="field-odd"><ul class="simple">
<li><p><strong>caller</strong> (<em>Object</em><em>, </em><em>Account</em><em> or </em><a class="reference internal" href="evennia.server.session.html#evennia.server.session.Session" title="evennia.server.session.Session"><em>Session</em></a>) – The user of the menu.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>menudata</strong> (<em>str</em><em>, </em><em>module</em><em> or </em><em>dict</em>) – The full or relative path to the module
holding the menu tree data. All global functions in this module
whose name doesn’t start with ‘_ ‘ will be parsed as menu nodes.
Also the module itself is accepted as input. Finally, a dictionary
menu tree can be given directly. This must then be a mapping
<strong>{“nodekey”:callable,…}</strong> where <strong>callable</strong> must be called as
and return the data expected of a menu node. This allows for
dynamic menu creation.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>startnode</strong> (<em>str</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – The starting node name in the menufile.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>cmdset_mergetype</strong> (<em>str</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – ‘Replace’ (default) means the menu
commands will be exclusive - no other normal commands will
be usable while the user is in the menu. ‘Union’ means the
menu commands will be integrated with the existing commands
(it will merge with <strong>merge_priority</strong>), if so, make sure that
the menu’s command names don’t collide with existing commands
in an unexpected way. Also the CMD_NOMATCH and CMD_NOINPUT will
be overloaded by the menu cmdset. Other cmdser mergetypes
has little purpose for the menu.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>cmdset_priority</strong> (<em>int</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – The merge priority for the
menu command set. The default (1) is usually enough for most
types of menus.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>auto_quit</strong> (<em>bool</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – Allow user to use “q”, “quit” or
“exit” to leave the menu at any point. Recommended during
development!</p></li>
<li><p><strong>auto_look</strong> (<em>bool</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – Automatically make “looK” or “l” to
re-show the last node. Turning this off means you have to handle
re-showing nodes yourself, but may be useful if you need to
use “l” for some other purpose.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>auto_help</strong> (<em>bool</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – Automatically make “help” or “h” show
the current help entry for the node. If turned off, eventual
help must be handled manually, but it may be useful if you
need ‘h’ for some other purpose, for example.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>cmd_on_exit</strong> (<em>callable</em><em>, </em><em>str</em><em> or </em><em>None</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – When exiting the menu
(either by reaching a node with no options or by using the
in-built quit command (activated with <strong>allow_quit</strong>), this
callback function or command string will be executed.
The callback function takes two parameters, the caller then the
EvMenu object. This is called after cleanup is complete.
Set to None to not call any command.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>persistent</strong> (<em>bool</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – Make the Menu persistent (i.e. it will
survive a reload. This will make the Menu cmdset persistent. Use
with caution - if your menu is buggy you may end up in a state
you can’t get out of! Also note that persistent mode requires
that all formatters, menu nodes and callables are possible to
<em>pickle</em>. When the server is reloaded, the latest node shown will be completely
re-run with the same input arguments - so be careful if you are counting
up some persistent counter or similar - the counter may be run twice if
reload happens on the node that does that. Note that if <strong>debug</strong> is True,
this setting is ignored and assumed to be False.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>startnode_input</strong> (<em>str</em><em> or </em><em>(</em><em>str</em><em>, </em><em>dict</em><em>)</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – Send an input text to <strong>startnode</strong> as if
a user input text from a fictional previous node. If including the dict, this will
be passed as <strong>kwargs to that node. When the server reloads,
the latest visited node will be re-run as **node(caller, raw_string, **kwargs)</strong>.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>session</strong> (<a class="reference internal" href="evennia.server.session.html#evennia.server.session.Session" title="evennia.server.session.Session"><em>Session</em></a><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – This is useful when calling EvMenu from an account
in multisession mode &gt; 2. Note that this session only really relevant
for the very first display of the first node - after that, EvMenu itself
will keep the session updated from the command input. So a persistent
menu will <em>not</em> be using this same session anymore after a reload.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>debug</strong> (<em>bool</em><em>, </em><em>optional</em>) – If set, the ‘menudebug’ command will be made available
by default in all nodes of the menu. This will print out the current state of
the menu. Deactivate for production use! When the debug flag is active, the
<strong>persistent</strong> flag is deactivated.</p></li>

<p>The result value sent to the callback is raw and not processed in any
way. This means that you will get the ending line return character from
most types of client inputs. So make sure to strip that before doing a
comparison.</p>
<p>When the prompt is running, a temporary object <strong>caller.ndb._getinput</strong>
is stored; this will be removed when the prompt finishes.</p>
<p>If you need the specific Session of the caller (which may not be easy
to get if caller is an account in higher multisession modes), then it
is available in the callback through <strong>caller.ndb._getinput._session</strong>.
This is why the <strong>session</strong> is required as input.</p>
<p>It’s not recommended to ‘chain’ <strong>get_input</strong> into a sequence of
questions. This will result in the caller stacking ever more instances
of InputCmdSets. While they will all be cleared on concluding the
get_input chain, EvMenu should be considered for anything beyond a
single question.</p>
