Changed default dbref search mechanic to require #N format and thus allow searching for objects named as integers (so "@create/drop 2" followed by 'look 2' will now work as expected instead of looking at the object with dbref=2). Doing "look #2 " will now look at the object with dbref 2 (Limbo). Resolves Issue 284.

Changed how Objects are searched, using proper Django Q objects instead of hack-y evals to build queries. This has lead to a number of changes to the ObjectDB manager search. Notably there is now no way to supply a "location" to either of the manager search methods anymore. Instead you can now supply the keyword "candidates", a list of objects which should be used to limit the search. This is much more generic than giving location. The higher-level search (like caller.search, reached from commands) have not changed its API, so commands should work the same unless you are using the manager backbone directly. This search function is now using location to create the "candidates" list. Some other things, like matching for "me" and "here" have also been moved up to a level were it can be easily overloaded. "me" and "here" etc were also moved under i18n.
...
As part of this overhaul I implemented the partial_matching algorithm originally asked for by user "Adam_ASE" over IRC. This will allow for (local-only) partial matching of objects. So "big black sword" will now be matched by "bi", "sword", "bi bla" and so on. The partial matcher sits in src.utils.utils.py if one wants to use it for something else.

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.

Worked with admin interface, cleaning up and adding functionality. There are still some strange behaviour that makes e.g. the presence of inlines to auto-create empty database objects for some strange reason. Inlines are turned off at the moment (so there is no convenient way to add attributes from the admin interface at this time). Creating players now work, but one needs to create all three components (User, Player, Character) in one go and tie them together. The User-admin form was changed to also support multi-word usernames (django default didn't allow spaces).

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.

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.

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

gtaylor convinced me to add migrations to the Evennia repo. This means that game/migrate.py is no more. The migrations will help you to adjust your database when Evennia releases a new database change, no need to drop the database or manually adjust tables. To make use of our schema migrations, you need to have Django-South installed.
...
To convert to django-south operations, easiest is if you are willing to drop your old database (e.g. delete evennia.db if you use default sqlite3). Then do: "game/manage.py syncdb" followed by "game/manage.py migrate". That should do it. If you ever deletes your database, just rerun those two commands.
If you want to convert an existing database, do
game/manage.py convert_to_south comms
game/manage.py convert_to_south config
game/manage.py convert_to_south help
game/manage.py convert_to_south objects
game/manage.py convert_to_south players
game/manage.py convert_to_south scripts
In the future, you will then be able to do ./manage.py migrate when we tell you the schema has changed.

OBS: You need to resync your database! Moved cmdsets into the database rather than being dependent on scripts.

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).

- 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.
