What's new?
This file lists major and incompatible changes in Eggdrop versions.
You can find the full list of changes in doc/Changes1.10.
For support, feel free to visit us on Libera #eggdrop.
For upgrading help, read the UPGRADING file.
In general, always make a BACKUP of your config and user/chanfile
before performing an upgrade!
_________________________________________________________________
Eggdrop v1.10.0:
General changes:
- Added the new Tcl 'autoscripts' capability. By loading the autoscripts Tcl
script, Eggdrop can automatically view, download and install Tcl scripts
hosted by the Eggheads team, all via the partyline! No modification of the
config file needed.
- Eggdrop can now use the account a user is logged into as an identification
method in the same manner that a hostmask does. For this feature to be
fully accurate, Eggdrop use a server with WHOX enabled and negotiate the
extended-join and account-notify IRCv3 capabilities.
- Added the IRCv3 userhost-in-names capability. This capability is
negotiated with the server at connect and prompts the server to add
hostmask to the NAMES command. This is useful in a scenario where an IRC
server has disabled the WHO command, but allows
Eggdrop to still track hostmasks (and removes the "pending" status from
the channel listing under .status).
- Added the IRCv3 standard-replies capability. This capability is negotiated
with the server at connect and enables the use of non-numeric FAIL, WARN,
and NOTE messages.
- Modified .bans to properly display channel bans.
- Fixed a bug with network reads performed on TLS connections, where
Eggdrop could hang until a connection times out, most commonly
manifesting itself on server connects and userfile transfers. This is
expected to fix the last documented issue with Eggdrop's handling of
secure connections.
- Eggdrop now requires TLS/SSL libs to be installed by default. Whereas
previously Eggdrop would previously continue to compile if TLS libraries
were not found, it will now error unless the user explicitly specifies
the --disable-tls flag.
- Fixed the Monitor bind to properly use wildcards in binds.
- Updated language files from ISO-8859 to UTF-8.
Botnet changes:
- Fixed an issue in pbkdf2-only links properly using/comparing PASS2 entries
Tcl API changes:
- Updated much of the core Tcl integration to be compatible with the
upcoming Tcl 9 release. Much work was done (thank you DasBrain!) to update
Eggdrop's internal Tcl calls to prevent breakages using Tcl 9. Most of
these changes are transparent to the user, but the one major item to call
out is the improvement of Tcl's UTF-8 emoji handling, which no longer
requires users to modify TCL_MAX and compile Tcl manually in order to use
emojis properly.
- The Python module (below) adds the pysource Tcl command, to load
a python script into Eggdrop.
- Added the Tcl CHGHOST bind, which is triggered when a user's
hostmask is changed via an IRCv3 CHGHOST message.
- Added the 'hidden-host' type to the event (EVNT) bind. This bind
is triggered when the bot's own host is hidden (+x) by a 396
message sent by server.
- Added the 'got-chanlist' type to the event (EVNT) bind. This bind
is triggered once Eggdrop finishes receiving the list of usernames
for a channel from a server. This can be used when Eggdrop needs to
wait to perform specific functions when joining a channel but
needs to wait until the users on a channel have been presented by
the server.
- Fixed a bug in the isidentified command to check if a user has
definitively been identified or unidentified.
Module changes:
- Added a Python module! This module integrates an embedded Python
interpreter similar to the Tcl interpreter already present in
Eggdrop. This module adds the .python command to the partyline
(again, similar to the .tcl command) to execute python strings,
as well as adding the pysource Tcl command that will load a Python
script into Eggdrop. See doc/modules/mod.python for details on how
to use it, or example scripts in the scripts/ directory.
Eggdrop config changes:
- The copy-to-tmp option was removed from the config. This value is
now functions under the old '1' behavior where an intermediate temp
file is created before copying from/to files that are in use.
- The quick-logs option was removed from the config. This value was
created to hedge against frequent writes to disk, but is less
relveant with today's technology. Eggdrop now writes logfiles to
disk immediately.
- The old DNS module section was removed
- A Python module section was added, but does not load the python
module by default.
- The Autoscripts capability to load and manage some scripts from the
partyline is loaded by default
Documentation changes:
- Added documentation that covers values commonly used when writing
new Tcl binds in C
- Added a tutorial to demonstrate how to share userfiles
- Added version variable for document generation
