Adding a new API system to Evennia. This centralizes all access of the evennia driver through a single module "ev". Importing ev one should be able to access (and also importantly, easily explore) Evennia's API much easier. This API goes a long way to "flatten" the structure so that one doesn't need to remember how to find some method in a deeply nested subdirectory.
...
As part of this work, I have also written full listings of all available properties on Typeclassed objects (including those inherited in various ways). Should hopefully make things easier to find.
One can of course still import things directly from src/ as before. But this is a first step towards removing the "base" objects in game/gamesrc and instead making those accessible through the core API.

Moved all command definitions of Typeclassed entities up one level, to Object, Player and Script respectively. The actual code is still on the models (ObjectDB, PlayerDB and ScriptDB), but one should not be able to use the methods without having to dig into the code as far. Also added extensive, up-to-date headers to the inheriting base objects in game/gamesrc.

Restructured the way typeclasses are loaded. This makes it possible to run at_init() hooks at initiation also for objects without any custom cases for character/players. at_init() hooks are called only when an object is initiated. This means that a room's at_init() hook is only called when someone looks or enters it or a script operates on it, for example, rest of the time these objects are dormant, most efficiently.

Trunk: Merged griatch-branch. This implements a new reload mechanism - splitting Evennia into two processes: Server and Portal with different tasks. Also cleans and fixes several bugs in script systems as well as introduces i18n (courtesy of raydeejay).

Scripts and Exits updated. Fixed some deep issues with Scripts that caused object-based scripts to not properly shut down in some situations, as well as spawn multiple instances of themselves. I think this should resolve all "at_repeat doubling" issues reported. Due to optimizations in the typeclass cache loader in a previous update, the Exit cmdsets were not properly loaded (they were loaded at cache time, which now doesn't happen as often). So Exits instead rely on the new "at_cmdset_get" hook called by the cmdhandler. It allows dynamic modification of cmdsets just before they are accessed. Resolves issue173 (I hope). Resolves issue180. Resolves issue 181.

Made scripts and typeclassed objects remember db_typeclass_path at all times - a temporarily faulty typeclass will no longer mess up things forever after. Refined and optimized the way typeclasses are cached and loaded, minimizing db hits. The default result when trying to create an object or script with a typeclass that is faulty/not found is now to fail. The previous way, to create an entity anyway using defaults was hard to debug and caused confusion. Resolves issue 175.

Multiple fixes and cleanups - command parser excludes inaccessible commands already at parse level now. Fixed the functionality of a few of the lock functions to be more intuitive. Added functionality to the examine command to better show the commands available to an object.

OBS: You need to resync your database! Moved cmdsets into the database rather than being dependent on scripts. Moved the creation of the cmdset- and cmdset-handlers into ObjectDB.__init__ rather than bootstrapping it from the typeclass. Added some more script functionality for testing, includong the @script command for assigning a script to an object.

Cleaned up the webclient and changed how it handles sessions and identifies with the server. Fixed some reported bugs caused by the changed layout of sessionhandler.

Evennia now runs on its own Twisted webserver (no need for testserver or Apache if you don't want to). Evennia now also has an ajax long-polling web client running from Twisted. The web client requires no extra dependencies beyond jQuery which is included. The src/server structure has been r

's suggestions as of yet - it uses a separate data object passed through msg() to communicate between the server and the various protocols. Also the client itself could probably need cleanup and 'prettification'. The fact that the system runs a hybrid of Django and Twisted, getting the best of both worlds should allow for many possibilities in the future. /Griatch
