6e53e6a1fd Added state persistence to commands. For commands that want to, their state will be saved for the next command to access through the self.caller.ndb.last_cmd variable. The state only persists one command before it is cleared or replaced. 2012-02-17 18:53:47 +01:00

d36a79b2cc Went over the Command class' basic methods, cleaning up and optimizing while still trying to keep things clean, such as using cleverer loops and try...except instead of if statements. Also cleaned up the way attributes are retrieved. Results in roughly a halving of the time that the code spends in the command.py module. 2012-02-06 00:59:41 +01:00

2b2d27ed39 Changed the way unloggedin commands work. Rather than the cmdhander having a special state for unlogged-in commands, the session itself simply stores the cmdset from settings.CMDSET_UNLOGGEDIN. Clean and efficient and also gives a lot more freedom for creating custom login mechanisms (notably it opens the door to using menu systems). 2011-11-06 17:38:29 +01:00

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

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

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.

923b9ac2ec Added hooks at_pre_cmd() and at_post_cmd() for easy implementation of stuff like prompts.
Added obj.exit property to objects for easily finding all exits from a room.

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.

3f703efc2d Made changes to idmapper that might help alleviate issue101 (more people need to run it to make sure). Moved around default command modules to be more logically named and distributed. 2010-10-31 08:10:02 +00:00

f83c2bddf8 Trunk: Merged the Devel-branch (branches/griatch) into /trunk. This constitutes a major refactoring of Evennia. Development will now continue in trunk. See the wiki and the past posts to the mailing list for info. /Griatch 2010-08-29 18:46:58 +00:00
