1995f61d46 Put up a warning about not using BaseObject.at_init() at this time (it's not called, as per issue 188). Also removed the deprecated at_cache() hook (it doesn't work anymore now that the caching system is much more efficient and only caches once). 2011-09-15 10:46:41 +02:00

f13e8cdf7c 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). 2011-09-03 10:22:19 +00:00

d466d8325f Added missing call argument. Resolves issue 177. 2011-08-06 18:18:42 +00:00

ddfd8120bb 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. 2011-08-06 18:15:04 +00:00

6cb2b8b745 Working on cleaning some strange behavior when trying to submitting faulty typeclasses to script system. Also fixing bugs here and there. 2011-07-03 21:01:06 +00:00

95d672763b 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. 2011-06-26 14:35:02 +00:00

334c0b1d08 Fixed a bunch of small issues. The RedButton example hasn't been working for a while, should be ok again now - also cleaned it up a bit. 2011-06-24 20:12:59 +00:00

7c56c69cea Added SSH support, based on patch by hagna (issue 166). 2011-05-27 17:47:35 +00:00
Griatch
d2400a8a6b Added the ability to give multiple typeclass search-paths to config file. This way you can add a path to your custom directory and don't have to write so much when creating typeclassed objects using e.g. @create. 2011-05-13 22:26:08 +00:00
Griatch
b9c1921a0b Added a new 'contrib' folder for optional code snippets not suitable for the server core. Added contrib/menusystem for implementing a multi-choice menu system. Added contrib/lineeditor - a powerful line editor with commands mimicking VI. Also added an example NPC class using the menu system to allow for a conversation. As part of creating these contributions, lots of bugs were found and fixed. A new and more powerful cmdparser was intruduced as a result - this one is much easier to understand than the old one, while being more efficient and versatile. All testsuites were updated. Also: Resolves issue 165. 2011-05-12 21:51:11 +00:00

b8a13a2389 Migrate. Made Exits work differently, by use of commands directly instead of an exithandler assigning commands on-the-fly. This solution is a lot cleaner and also solves an issue where @reload would kill typeclasses in situations where an exit was painting to an object whose typeclass was reloaded (same issue occured if the exit typeclass itself was reloaded). As part of these fixes I cleaned up the merging of cmdsets to now merge in strict priority order, as one would expect them to do. Many small bug-fixes and cleanups all over. Resolves issue 164. Resolves issue 163. 2011-05-01 18:04:15 +00:00

4bcd5239b5 Mixed batch of minor bug fixes and cleanups. 2011-04-30 21:09:19 +00:00

28fe2ad3f4 Run Migrate. Implemented a full separation between Player and Character - Players (OOC entities) can now also hold cmdsets and execute commands. This means that "disconnecting" from a Character becomes possible, putting the Player in an "OOC" state outside the game. This overall makes the game much more stable since there used to be issues if the character was destroyed. Having an OOC set also avoids the previous problem of @puppeting into an object that didn't have any cmdset of its own - you couldn't get back out! A new default OOC-Cmdset handles commands available to a player while OOC. Commands in this set are applied with a low priority, allowing "IC" mode to give precedence if desired.
This change meant several changes to the lock and permission functionality, since it becomes important if permissions are assigned on the Player or on their Character (lock functions pperm() and pid() etc check on Player rather than Character). This has the boon of allowing Admins to switch and play/test the game as a "Low access" character as they like.

Plenty of bug fixes and adjustments. Migrations should make sure to move over all data properly.

88626842b7 Fixed a bug in serverconfig. Tweaked how the default connection screen is stored, to allow for server updates. 2011-04-12 22:22:04 +00:00
Griatch
2ee54678ae Migration needed. Changed how connection screens are defined, rather than being a database model, they are created on-the fly. I didn't migrate over the screen data into the new module file though, so if you had custom connection screens, you need to manually add them to the new module in gamesrc/world/connection_screen.py. 2011-04-10 14:21:41 +00:00
Griatch
6eff51de20 OBS: Migration needed(objects, scripts, players). This resolves issue 136 by allowing database objects to be nested in lists and dictionaries as
attributes on objects. Behind the scenes, only the DBREF is stored since storing dbobjects cannot be pickled. One used to be able to store single objects this way, but objects hidden in nested iterable structures were not found. Note that ONLY lists and dictionaries are supported to store on attributes - custom iterables will be stored and retrieved as a generic list instead - this is a tradeoff to be able to store database objects.

To migrate, give the following commands from game/:
 migrate.py migrate objects
 migrate.py migrate scripts
 migrate.py migrate players

Griatch
126e2ea61f 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. 2011-03-20 19:45:56 +00:00
Griatch
2f78bacd97 Added a check for multiple connected sessions to avoid moving disconnected object more than once. Resolves issue 145. 2011-03-19 22:17:00 +00:00

bccd84e480 Fixed some bugs in the access system. Changed the "owner" default permission to "control" instead to more general. Added a new hook for setting locks for objects (the suspicion was that this would give lots of grief to newbies otherwise, now we have a lockdown policy in the absence of lock definitions). 2011-03-17 21:43:18 +00:00
Griatch
08b3de9e5e OBS: You'll need to resync/rebuild your database!
- This implements an updated, clearer and more robust access system. The policy is now to lock that which is not explicitly left open.
- Permission strings -> Lock strings. Separating permissions and locks makes more sense security-wise
- No more permissiongroup table; permissions instead use a simple tuple PERMISSIONS_HIERARCHY to define an access hierarchy
- Cleaner lock-definition syntax, all based on function calls.
- New objects/players/channels get a default security policy during creation (set through typeclass)

As part of rebuilding and testing the new lock/permission system I got into testing and debugging several other systems, fixing some
outstanding issues:
- @reload now fully updates the database asynchronously. No need to reboot server when changing cmdsets
- Dozens of new test suites added for about 30 commands so far
- Help for channels made more clever and informative.

ecefbfac01 Set the default settings file to point to the files in game/gamesrc/commands - these now make for good starts for overriding the default systems. The system now also matches the examples given in the wiki. 2010-11-23 18:10:41 +00:00
Griatch
72d40285b8 After lots of discussions, default commands where moved from game/gamesrc/commands/default to src/commands/default in order to make it clearer which parts are updated as part of evennia and which can be tweaked at heart's content. New templates where left in gamesrc/commands that should hopefully make it clearer how to extend the command system. Also game/web was moved to src/web - we'll likely extend this from game/gamesrc/web in the future. If you already did extensions you should just have to edit your import paths and make use of the new cmdset template supplied.
The unit testing was for commands was split out from src/objects/tests.py into the new src/commands/default/test.py in order to keep the testing modules thematically grouped with the things they are testing.

502ebff1a2 Implemented a unit testing framework for Evennia. Unfortunately it seems it is only usable in latest Django SVN, due to a Django bug; Run "manage.py test-evennia" - if you get errors about SUPPORTS_TRANSACTIONS, you are affected by the bug. Since this is only likely to affect evennia devs at this point I added a few base tests in src/objects/tests.py as a template for those willing to help add unit tests. 2010-11-21 19:02:24 +00:00

547eb53b32 Made search(*playername) commands correctly return a Player typeclass and not a character. Initial startup/character creation: Default permissions are now assigned on player level rather than character level (this gives more safety to @puppet operations). Made @puppet command work only on Character objects. 2010-10-21 18:58:47 +00:00

04ae472e1a Tweak @create help to provide a working example as intended.
The rest of the documentation for this command should probably be audited, but the copy-paste method of experimentation works now.

9459178c43 Fixed character swap mechanisms. Created an example command @puppet for switching control between characters (note that it does not currently check permissions, nor make sure the target has the appropriate cmdsets). 2010-10-18 21:07:26 +00:00

c29649cd53 Made characters disappear from the room when their controlling player logs off. This is a trivial thing to customize, but the old default (leave the character objects in the room, although "headless") confused people. 2010-10-03 19:49:48 +00:00
