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.
- Introduced a new configuration option for command prefix in config.ini.example, allowing users to customize command invocation.
- Updated CommandManager to load and utilize the command prefix, ensuring commands are processed correctly based on the configured prefix.
- Enhanced message handling logic to check for the command prefix, maintaining backward compatibility with the legacy "!" prefix.
- Improved keyword matching to ensure bot responses are only triggered when the bot is mentioned, refining interaction accuracy.
- 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.
- Add timezone configuration to config.ini and config.ini.example
- Update hello_command.py to use configured timezone for time-appropriate greetings
- Add pytz dependency to requirements.txt
- Support standard timezone names (America/New_York, Europe/London, etc.)
- Fallback to system timezone if configured timezone is invalid or empty
- Update core.py create_default_config to include timezone setting
- Time-appropriate greetings now work correctly across different timezones
