- Updated `config.ini.example` and `config.ini.minimal-example` to include optional `local_dir_path` for specifying a custom local plugins directory.
- Enhanced `install-service.sh` to preserve the `local/` directory during installation and create its structure if it doesn't exist.
- Modified `CommandManager` and `MeshCoreBot` to resolve the local commands and services directory based on the new configuration.
- Added validation in `config_validation.py` to check the existence and readability of the specified local plugins path.
- Improved documentation in `local-plugins.md` to clarify the usage of local plugins and the new configuration options.
- Introduced `strip_optional_quotes` function to handle monitor channel values with optional surrounding quotes.
- Updated `load_monitor_channels` method in `CommandManager` to utilize the new function, ensuring compatibility with quoted and unquoted channel configurations.
- Modified `generate_samples` function to apply the same logic for consistency.
- Added tests for `strip_optional_quotes` to validate behavior with various input cases.
- Standardized the configuration keys for joke commands by replacing `joke_enabled` and `dadjoke_enabled` with a unified `enabled` key in the configuration files.
- Updated the validation logic to warn users when both legacy `[Jokes]` and new `[Joke_Command]`/`[DadJoke_Command]` sections are present, suggesting the removal of the legacy section.
- Enhanced the command classes to support fallback mechanisms for legacy configuration keys, ensuring backward compatibility.
- Added tests to verify the correct behavior of the new configuration handling and legacy support.
- Enhanced .gitignore to allow test files in the tests/ directory and committed pytest.ini for test discovery.
- Added checks for missing sections in configuration files, specifically for Admin_ACL and Banned_Users, to prevent errors during bot startup.
- Updated generate_website.py and command_manager.py to handle cases where required sections are absent, returning empty lists instead of raising exceptions.
- Introduced optional dependencies for testing in pyproject.toml, ensuring a smoother development experience.
- Improved localization handling in core.py to default to English when the Localization section is missing, enhancing user experience.
- Add modules/config_validation.py and validate_config.py CLI to flag
non-standard section names (e.g. WebViewer -> Web_Viewer).
- Migrate JokeCommand/DadJokeCommand to Joke_Command/DadJoke_Command with
legacy [Jokes] fallback in base_command.get_config_value.
- Merge [Jokes] into [Joke_Command]/[DadJoke_Command] in config.ini.example
and add 3-line stubs for minimal-option commands.
- Add webviewer to camel_case_map; add --validate-config to meshcore_bot.py.
