The user command (UCMD) extension to the ADC protocol allows for sending
hub-specific commands to clients. These commands have a name (which
generally appears in a menu in the client) and a command string which
the client sends back to the hub when the command is selected. These
command strings can contain keyword substitutions for useful
information, such as the SID of another user that was selected in the
client.
This commit adds some support for sending user commands to the uhub
plugin API. It currently restricts the command string to containing main
chat messages (BMSG commands in ADC parlance).
A plugin_ucmd structure is added to store the details of a user command,
and four methods are added to the plugin_handle.hub structure:
* plugin->hub.ucmd_create(plugin, name, length) creates a new user
command.
* plugin->hub.ucmd_add_chat(plugin, ucmd, message, me) adds a main chat
message to the list of commands to be run when the user command is
selected. The me flag allows IRC /me style messages.
* plugin->hub.ucmd_send(plugin, user, ucmd) sends the command to a user.
* plugin->hub.ucmd_free(plugin, ucmd) frees the memory taken by a user
command.
The structure has a number of flags (categories, remove, separator,
constrained) which correspond to the flags in the UCMD specification.
The categories flag must be set prior to sending to one (or more, via
a logical OR) of the ucmd_category_* enumeration values defined in
plugin_api/types.h.
The PLUGIN_API_VERSION has been increased to 2 to mark the change.
It's not called anywhere yet.
Also reorder some typedefs, rename the ip check functions and add
struct {hub,plugin}_user parameter to on_check_ip_late(). Not sure where
to insert a call to that...
Load plugin mod_topic, and it will provide 3 new user commands:
!topic - set new topic
!cleartopic - reset the topic (use default hub description)
!showtopic - show the current topic
Fix bug #185 - Args of !commands lost/damaged.
All string arguments were incorrectly freed after being added to the argument list for a command.
Instead this fix makes sure it is properly copied into a new string, and by doing so this requires
a new API for dealing with hub command arguments in a type safe manner, and also allows for each
argument to be cleaned up properly when the command is no longer needed.
This also fixes issues with parse errors for certain types, and optional arguments (previously it was impossible
to tell the difference for an integer with value 0 or if no integer was given).
All arguments can now be accessed through the new functions
hub_command_arg_reset() and hub_command_arg_next().
These functions are also exposed to plug-ins.
The argument type notations for 'n' has changed to mean nick (string),
and 'u' is used for a user (struct hub_user - must be online).
This also deprecates the built-in chat_only configuration option.
If you need this functionality, then load the mod_chat_only plugin (if it is loaded then only operators
are able to search, connect, etc).
Dynamic commands are user commands that can be added dynamically to
the hub by a plugin.
The example plugin (mod_example.c) adds a !example command that when
invoked send a message to the user who invoked it.
* Fix crash when unloading plugins.
* Fixed plugin loader and plugin unload handler.
* Added a new example plugin: mod_logging which logs users logging in and out of the hub to stdout.
