Two guards on command placeholders in scheduled messages, neither
configurable, because both exist to protect a shared medium:
A 15-minute floor. A schedule containing {cmd:...} that fires more often
is rejected at startup with an error rather than quietly running slower.
The interval is sampled and measured by the tightest gap between
firings, so "0,1 * * * *" is correctly treated as every 60 seconds and
not as hourly. Schedules without a command placeholder are unaffected.
The command's own cooldown_seconds now applies to a render. Scheduling
is not a way around the rate a command was configured to run at. The
execution is recorded before the command runs, matching execute_commands,
so a slow or failing render cannot be retried straight past the cooldown.
Also fills documentation gaps from the preceding commits:
- --install-extras was only in the script's own --help; documented in
service-installation.md (including alongside --update-venv) and
upgrade.md.
- weather-service.md documented weather_alarm's once-a-day scheduling
with no route to more than one forecast a day, which is exactly what
people go there looking for. It now points at {cmd:wx ...} and notes
that sunrise/sunset still belong to weather_alarm.
- Added a tracked `LICENSE` file and updated `pyproject.toml` to include license metadata.
- Enhanced `CHANGELOG.md` with recent changes and clarifications.
- Updated `config.ini.example` and related documentation to reflect clamping behavior for numeric limits in `[Feed_Manager]`.
- Improved startup validation to suggest corrections for unknown and misspelled keys.
- Refactored geocoding and HTTP request handling to run off-thread, preventing event loop stalls.
- Added thread safety to cache management in geocoding functions to avoid race conditions.
Promote the pending 0.9.4 release to 1.0.0 and polish the release
metadata before tagging.
- Bump the version in pyproject.toml and the packaging docs assertion.
- Reframe the CHANGELOG entry as the first stable release, and add the
user-visible changes that shipped without entries: flexible command
prefixes, per-channel flood scope, packet-capture payload decoding,
startup config validation, MOWAS region scoping, hops/RSSI
placeholders, help-command channel overrides, webhook readiness, and
NWS coverage detection.
- Backfill CHANGELOG entries for 0.9.1, 0.9.2, and 0.9.3, which were
tagged but never documented, and add compare links for each.
- Credit external contributors for 0.9.1 and 1.0.0.
- Document the opt-in sender-language detection in the upgrade guide,
alongside the existing optional-extras sections.
- build-deb.sh: fail loudly when the version cannot be read from
pyproject.toml instead of falling back to a hardcoded 0.9.1, which
would stamp a release build with an apparent downgrade.
- Enhanced the command reference with detailed descriptions for `cmd`, `version`, `weather`, and `path` commands, including usage examples and configuration options.
- Added new `RandomLine` command documentation for configurable triggers.
- Updated configuration documentation to reflect the deprecation of the global `[Aliases]` section, encouraging per-command alias definitions.
- Clarified the `[Rate_Limits]` and `[Webhook]` sections in the configuration guide.
- Improved the web viewer documentation, emphasizing security practices and configuration options.
- Introduced a new `upgrade.md` file detailing changes for users upgrading from previous versions.
- Included information on config compatibility, banned users prefix matching, and new optional sections for configuration.
- Provided guidance on legacy config formats and recommended updates for improved compatibility.
