23cd9e31b1 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. 2011-10-01 22:00:22 +02:00

475361ad28 Added functionality to Attributes to store and update dicts and lists dynamically. One side effect of this is that dicts and tuples need to be stored as custom object types which means that e.g. isintance(obj.db.mylist) == type(list) will return False. In order to do checks like this, use src.utils.utils.inherits_from() instead. The Attribute system now also supports tuples. All other iterables except dicts, lists and tuples are stored and retrieved as lists, same as before.
This fixes issue 189.

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

f1d743f14c Checked at_init() due to reported issues of it not getting called. Couldn't find any problems, rather it was called too many times, so removed an unecessary call. 2011-09-15 01:18:53 +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

2b4e008d18 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. 2011-08-11 21:16:35 +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

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

27809694d7 Migrate. Added the "view" access restriction (to make objects invisible). Also changed the input of ObjectDB.objects.object_search() to not require a caller as an argument (this makes it consistent with other search methods). All default systems should have updated to the new call, but if you have custom calls, you need to change them to fit the new syntax (this is only important if explicitly use ObjectDB.objects.object_search; if you just use caller.search you should be fine) 2011-04-24 11:26:51 +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.

6c53ec2bdb OBS: Run migrate! Made exit's destination into a database field for performance. Fixed a too greedy @reload that caused ContentTypes to loose information. Resolves issue 157.

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

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

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.

2bdaf034c8 OBS: You need to resync your database! The Nickname system is now a separate database model with the result that also channel nicks are more robust. Also nickname replacement has been adjusted to fix some exceptional circumstances. Fixed a host of issues in the channel and nick handlers and adjoining commands that caused the channel-syscommands to fail in some situations. Resolves issue131. Resolves issue 132.
