This speeds up + operations such as saving and rescanning; it also allow hand-editing + of the data files while the bot is running, since a rescan will load + the changed data files without overwriting them with a useless save + before. Of course this only works if there are no pending changes in + the running bot. + +2007-01-12 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Server timeout: rework the server timeout code. Instead of PINGing + the server unconditionally every server.ping_timeout seconds, we only + PING it if we don't receive anything in the user-chosen timeout (lazy + PING). The code rewrite also seems to have fixed the "bot stalling + doing nothing" problem, which seemed to have been a consequence of + @socket.select not having a timeout. + +2006-11-01 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * SSL support: patch from Robin H. Johnson + +2006-10-28 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * A-Z game: try to guess the word the bot is thinking of: every miss + helps by reducing the range of allowed words, until it's so small + around the correct one that you can't miss it. + +2006-10-27 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Flood protection: first attempt at penalty-based flood protection. + This should make rbot much less prone to Excess Floods *and* still + serve normally without excessive delays. + +2006-10-25 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * HttpUtil: Strings returned by get_cached now have a cached? method + which returns true or false depending on whether the result was taken + from the cache or not; this can be exploited by plugins that parse the + result in some particular way, since they can now skip the parsing + stage if they cache the parse result. + +2006-10-24 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * HttpUtil: initial implementation of proper caching based on + last-modified and etag HTTP headers + +2006-10-17 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Salut plugin: handles (multilingual) salutations (hello/goodbye) + +2006-10-15 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Language stuff: plugins can now handle language changes in a natural + fashion. lart is the first plugin to make use of this. NOTE: this + is not (yet) backwards compatible: the old larts/praises files from + previous rbot setups have to be renamed manually + * Language stuff: italian translations + * Utils.safe_save(filename): allows 'safe' saving of a file: it needs a + block, to which it will yield a temporary file on which operations can + be carried out. When the block returns, the tempfile will be renamed to + the given filename + +2006-09-21 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * New Auth Framework: restore backwards compatibility: 'auth + ' and 'login owner ' both work. + * Topic plugin: cleanups. Implement 'topic undo'. 'topic undo' after a + 'topic undo' undoes the last undo. + +2006-09-09 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * New Auth Framework: rbot was opping anyone who asked for it (opme + plugin). Fixed, and cleaned up. + +2006-09-01 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * New Auth Framework: document and fine tune permissions view the auth + core botmodule. + * Version: when run from a svn checkout, the bot now tries to report + which svn revision it's at, and if there are local changes + +2006-08-31 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Nickserv plugin: bot will now try to inform nickserv when password + is changed. Moreover it's not necessary to specify the nick anymore if + you want to change the password for the current bot nick. Also do some + internal cleanups while we're at it. + +2006-08-29 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Script plugin: new (UNSAFE!) echo functions. Just like eval, but + m.replies the result of the evaluation. + * New Auth Framework: config keys now have their own permissions. So + you can allow people to view or edit only some of the config values. + auth.password defaults to false. Still needs some work. + +2006-08-26 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Plugin message mapper: new implementation. Multi-word parameters now + need not be the last, and it is possible to retrieve the entire + substring with preserved whitespace by using to_s. Also, parts of the + map string can be bracketed to make them optional. Examples: + remind :user [about] *stuff + will respond to + remind me about washing my teeth + and also to + remind me washing my teeth + It is possible to have parameters in brackets, in which case they will + be optional too, and default to nil or [] (resp. single- and + multi-word parameters) unless an alternative is provided in the + :defaults hash for the message map options. + * Script plugin: new (UNSAFE!) eval function. Not documented in help. + Not permitted by default. + +2006-08-25 Mark Kretschmann + + * Added quiz plugin, a multiplayer trivia quiz game. + +2006-08-20 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Topic plugin: fix a bug that prevented it from loading + correctly. + * New IRC Framework: make sure that NOTICEs and PRIVMSGs do not + raise an exception when the target is in one of the special forms + # or $. Needs some work, though, since this case should be + handled specifically. + +2006-08-17 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Fix help: It got broken while rearranging the plugin stuff, now it's + properly fixed. + * New Auth Framework: forgot to create the InvalidPassword exception. + It's a RuntimeError now. + * Fix help: this time for real (or so I hope). + * New IRC Framework: topic plugin now works correctly. + * New Auth Framework: nickserv plugin now defaults to false for its + auth, so that only owner can do stuff with it + * New Auth Framework: fix horrible typo, assignment instead of + equality test when checking for the username during login. + * Keywords plugin: tell and forget work again without 'keyword' before + them. + +2006-08-12 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Subregistry: force prefix to be a String with to_s + +2006-08-11 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * AutoOp plugin: adapted to the new IRC framework. + * AutoOp plugin: trigger autoop on nick change too. + * New Auth Framework: allow? method now informs a user when they don't + have permission to do what they asked for. + * New nickreply and nickokay methods: they act like the old reply + method, but include the nick of the user the bot is replying to when + talking in public. The usual reply method can be configured to act + like this as default. + +2006-08-10 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Fix a bug in new IRC Framework: the list of channels a quitting user was + on was not built correctly, causing an exception when the user was not + in the first channel in the list of channels. + * Fix a bug in new Auth Framework: BotUser's name is changed via + username=, not name=. + * New HalfLife 2 plugin from ocr: queries online servers for online + status and number of users. + +2006-08-07 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Add kick method to kernel: plugins can now use + @bot.kick channel, user, reason + to kick a user from a channel + * RSS plugin: fix rewatch_rss method + * RSS plugin: the different ways to represent channels before and + after the New IRC Framework was causing strange problems such as + watched feed not being listed as such, undeletable watches, double + watches etc. Fix this by checking both for the Channel objects and + their to_s form when checking for watches or deleting them. + +2006-08-06 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Updating the ChangeLog again: describe the new stuff in trunk which + will be made available in the next release. Use Gnu style for new + changelog entries (yyyy-mm-dd name \n ...): + there's a macro for this since at least Vim 6.x and higher, called by + o (default leader: slash (\)) + * New IRC Framework: Server, Channels, User, Netmasks etc are all + proper Ruby objects. The better organization will allow multi-server + connections to be implemented more easily + * Modularize core: split the internal functionality from what can be + implemented as botmodules (which work just the same as plugins). Move + Configuration, Basics and Auth out of the 'kernel' into core + botmodules. + * New Auth Framework: BotUsers are now Ruby objects with attached + PermissionSets which define what the BotUser can do, by channel if + necessary. The new framework allows very fine-grained control while + still being very easy to manage for elementary usage. BotUser data can + be exported and imported, but no backwards compatibility has been + implemented yet. Most plugins still have to be updated to the new + command-path-based mechanism. + +Sun Aug 06 17:33:55 BST 2006 Tom Gilbert + + * 0.9.10 released + * Changes: Lots of new and updated plugins, including one to poll RSS feeds. + A first step towards a better auth system (total revamp due in 0.9.11). + Improvements to network and server code which should provide greater + stability. A new message queueing mechanism with bitrate throttling. A new + logging framework for debugging and tracing the activities of the bot. A + new split-db registry system for better performance and transactional + usage of bdb for resilience. More integration with Nickserv where + available including optional automatic ghost-killing. + +Wed Sep 07 20:16:46 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert + + * Fixed quit, broke it last commit + * Fixed trap() for win32 + +Sun Aug 21 13:29:55 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert + + * fix for bug in quakenet plugin (trac #14) + * multiple fixes for unescaped bot nick in regexp's (trac #13) + Fri Aug 12 20:51:38 BST 2005 Tom Gilbert * fix up autoop plugin a bit
