- Introduced a new utility function `get_config_timezone` to centralize timezone retrieval and validation from the bot's configuration.
- Updated various commands and the scheduler to utilize the new function, ensuring consistent timezone handling and fallback mechanisms.
- Removed direct dependencies on `pytz` in favor of a more flexible approach that supports both `pytz` and `zoneinfo` for timezone management.
- Enhanced logging for invalid timezone configurations to improve troubleshooting.
- Updated the `send_response` method calls in various command classes to include a `skip_user_rate_limit` parameter for message continuations, ensuring that the per-user rate limit applies only to the first message.
- This change improves user experience by allowing seamless message continuations without unnecessary rate limiting.
- Updated utility functions to improve country name validation, ensuring accurate identification of country names and US states.
- Enhanced geocoding logic in multiple command classes to handle default state and country configurations more effectively.
- Modified error messages to reflect the correct region based on user input, improving user experience.
- Added short usage descriptions for satellite pass commands in multiple languages, enhancing internationalization support.
- Updated the `generate_html` function to include detailed command usage information, including syntax, examples, and parameters for better user guidance.
- Added CSS styles for improved presentation of command usage and parameters in the generated website documentation.
- Enhanced command classes with structured documentation fields, allowing for consistent and informative command descriptions across the platform.
- Implemented a configuration option for enabling or disabling commands across multiple command classes.
- Each command now checks its enabled state before execution, improving control over command availability.
- Updated the configuration loading mechanism to retrieve the enabled state from the config file for commands like Advert, AQI, Catfact, and others.
- Removed per-command user cooldown tracking from individual command classes.
- Implemented a unified cooldown management system in BaseCommand for both global and per-user cooldowns.
- Updated command execution methods to call the new centralized cooldown handling, improving code clarity and reducing redundancy.
- Enhanced error handling and logging during cooldown checks to ensure robust command execution.
- Introduced caching mechanisms for internet connectivity status in CommandManager to optimize performance and reduce redundant checks.
- Updated command execution logic to skip commands requiring internet access when connectivity is unavailable, improving user experience and error handling.
- Added synchronous and asynchronous utility functions for checking internet connectivity in utils.py.
- Marked relevant commands (e.g., AlertCommand, AqiCommand, DadJokeCommand) as requiring internet access to ensure proper execution conditions.
