This patch updates the notification thread to send all packets
through the notification plugins. The plugins themselves need to
do smart filter to not reply to every packet. This allows for
more interesting plugins.
Also fixed an issue with the messages tab in the admin ui, not
showing all of the recieved packets. The messages tab now also
sees all the packets that aprsd recieves.
This patch adds a new optional feature called Watch list.
Aprsd will filter IN all aprs packets from a list of callsigns.
APRSD will keep track of the last time a callsign has been seen.
When the configured timeout value has been reached, the next time
a callsign is seen, APRSD will send the next packet from that callsign
through the new notification plugins list.
The new BaseNotifyPlugin is the default core APRSD notify based plugin.
When it gets a packet it will construct a reply message to be sent
to the configured alert callsign to alert them that the seen callsign
is now on the APRS network.
This basically acts as a notification that your watched callsign list is
available on APRS.
The new configuration options:
aprsd:
watch_list:
# The callsign to send a message to once a watch list callsign
# is now seen on APRS-IS
alert_callsign: NOCALL
# The time in seconds to wait for notification.
# The default is 12 hours.
alert_time_seconds: 43200
# The list of callsigns to watch for
callsigns:
- WB4BOR
- KFART
# Enable/disable this feature
enabled: false
# The list of notify based plugins to load for
# processing a new seen packet from a callsign.
enabled_plugins:
- aprsd.plugins.notify.BaseNotifyPlugin
This patch also adds a new section in the Admin UI for showing the
watch list and the age of the last seen packet for each callsing since
APRSD startup.
This patch adds a message counter for each plugin. When the regex for
a plugin passes and the message is pass into the plugin for processing,
that message is tracked. This message count is reported by the stats
tracking object now for the web admin ui.
This patch adds 2 items. First it adds the new StockPlugin,
which fetches stock quotes from yahoo finance rest API using
the yfinance python module.
2nd, the web interface contains a new url /plugins, which allows
aprsd to reload all of it's plugins from disk. This is useful for
development where the dev is editing an existing plugin and wants to
run the edited plugin without restarting aprsd itself. The /plugins
url requires admin login credentials.
TODO: would be nice to live reload the aprsd.yml config file, so plugin
reloading can start new plugins defined in aprsd.yml between /plugins
being reloaded.
This patch adds a new CLI app called aprsd-dev. arpsd-dev is
used specifically for developing plugins. It allows you to run a
plugin directly without the need to run aprsd server.
This patch also adds the Weather Metar plugin called WxPlugin.
You can use it to fetch METAR from the nearest station for a callsign
or from a known METAR station id. Call WxPlugin with a message of
'wx' for closest metar station or 'wx KAUN' for metar at KAUN wx station
This patch moves all of the plugins out of plugin.py
into their own separate plugins/<plugin>.py file. This
makes it easier to maintain each plugin.
NOTE: You will have to update your ~/.config/aprsd/aprsd.yml
to change the python location path for each plugin enabled.
For example:
OLD:
enabled_plugins:
- aprsd.plugin.EmailPlugin
TO NEW
enabled_plugins:
- aprsd.plugins.email.EmailPlugin
This patch moves all of the plugins out of plugin.py
into their own separate plugins/<plugin>.py file. This
makes it easier to maintain each plugin.
NOTE: You will have to update your ~/.config/aprsd/aprsd.yml
to change the python location path for each plugin enabled.
For example:
OLD:
enabled_plugins:
- aprsd.plugin.EmailPlugin
TO NEW
enabled_plugins:
- aprsd.plugins.email.EmailPlugin
This patch also updates the QueryPlugin to allow the configured user
to immediately resend all Delayed messages!
This patch updates the QueryPlugin to allow the configured user
to immediately Flush/delete all messages!
This patch adds the new MsgTrack object replacing the
global ack_dict. the ack_dict was not thread safe.
the new MsgTrack is a singleton object that keeps track of
all outbound TextMessage objects. When a TextMessage.send() is called
it is added to the MsgTrack object, and when an ack is received for that
message, the message is removed from the MsgTrack object.
TODO: Add an automatic mechanism for saving the messages in MsgTrack
so that when CTRL-C is called to exit aprsd server, then the MsgTrack
state is saved to storage. When aprsd server is started up again, add
the option to try and reload state of MsgTrack.
This patch also reworked the email thread into an APRSDThread object
that can exit gracefully with CTRL-C.
NOTE: Don't call sleep() with a long time (greater than 5 seconds), as
it causes a delay in exiting aprsd until the last sleep() finishes.
Since aprsd has so many threads now for processing incoming messages and
outgoing messages, we need to coordinate all thread operations so that
they don't block the exiting of the app.
This patch fixes a minor issue with the new send-message command
You now should use nargs to send the email command because it includes
a - as the start. click assumed that any -<foo> looks ike an argument.
So call aprsd with
aprsd send-command <callsign> -- -wb sendmap
This patch also adds -h as a help option for aprsd to make it simpler to
type.
This patch adds the VersionPlugin so you can remotely request the
version of aprsd that's running.
This commit adds the new send-message command for sending messages.
This also redoes the logging of sent/rx'd packets to a single method
which is syncrhonized, so we don't get intermixed log messages for
packets.
Also adds email address validation during startup, and
optionally disables the validation via a command line switch. without
email validation for production running aprsd, emails sent can turn up
garbage and cause issues when those emails are received by aprsd
message processing as invalid content.
This branch refactors the majority of main.py out into individual
modules to compartmentalize the code. Migrated all email related
features unti email.py, sending of messages into messaging.py
Also refactored all of the socket code to use aprslib for all APRS-IS
communication as well as message/packet processing.
Moved the email command into it's own Plugin.
This patch reworked the loading of plugins. Python2 is dead.
Previously was using the imp module to easily load the plugins from
a separate directory, which is a bit of a pita. Found a python3 lib
that takes care of the difference between py3.3, 3.4 and 3.5+ module
loading called "thesmuggler"
This patch fixes the Usage string for a call message
that isn't matched by any plugin.
Plugin object now must impleent a 'command_name' attribute
that is the usage string for that plugin.
This patch adds the new APRSD Command Plugin architecture.
All Comand plugins must implement the same object API, which includes
plugin object is subclass of APRSDPluginBase
version attribute
command_regex attribute
command method
When an APRS command is detected, then the regex is run against
the command. If the command_regex matches, then the plugin's
command() method will be called. If the command() method returns
a string, then that string is sent as a reply to the APRS caller.
A new aprs.yml config section is added to support selecting
which plugins to enable.
If you want all plugins enabled, then omit "enabled_plugins" entirely
from the aprs section of the config.
To load custom plugins:
1) create a directory with an __init__.py file
2) Add a plugin.py file that contains your plugin
Look at the exmaples directory for an example plugin.
