no_event_received via _is_no_event_received() helper
BUG-026: split_text_into_chunks() and get_max_message_length() added
to CommandManager; keyword dispatch uses send_response_chunked()
BUG-028: byte_data = b"" initialised before try block in
decode_meshcore_packet to prevent UnboundLocalError in except handler
TraceCommand: path nodes reversed and return path truncated; fixed
format_elapsed_display: UTC normalisation before elapsed computation (#75)
RepeaterManager: auto_manage_contacts guard before any purge logic (#50)
Command aliases: [Aliases] config section injects shorthands at startup
JSON logging: _JsonFormatter; json_logging = true in [Logging]
Structured JSON logging compatible with Loki, Elasticsearch, Splunk
Discord bridge, Telegram bridge, and all service plugins updated
MeshGraph edge promotion logic corrected
Shutdown: scheduler and meshcore disconnect joined cleanly; log spam fixed
All modules: ruff and mypy cleanup applied (type annotations, imports)
- 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 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.
- Move n2yo_api_key and airnow_api_key from [Solar_Config] to [External_Data]
- Update code references to use [External_Data] section instead of [Solar_Config]
- Update config.ini.example to match the new organization
