- Added `channelpause` and `channelresume` commands to the admin commands list in configuration files, allowing admins to pause or resume bot responses on public channels via DM.
- Updated documentation to reflect the new command functionality and its implications for channel responses.
- Modified validation and message handling to incorporate the new channel response control feature.
BUG-001: web viewer login/session auth (in web viewer commit)
BUG-002: db_manager ALTER TABLE for missing channel_operations and
feed_message_queue columns on startup
BUG-015: scheduler thread blocked on future.result(); replaced all
blocking waits with add_done_callback (fire-and-forget)
BUG-016: reboot_radio sends meshcore.commands.reboot() before disconnect
BUG-017: radio disconnect uses asyncio.wait_for(timeout=10)
BUG-022: custom asyncio loop exception handler suppresses IndexError
from meshcore parser at DEBUG level
BUG-024: last_db_backup_run updated after each run; 2-min startup
window; last-run seeded from DB on restart
BUG-025: send_channel_message retries up to 2 times (2s delay) on
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)
- Added `send_channel_messages_chunked` method to `CommandManager` for sending multiple messages with appropriate rate-limit spacing.
- Introduced `send_response_chunked` method in `BaseCommand` to facilitate chunked responses in both channels and DMs.
- Updated `GreeterCommand` to utilize the new chunked response functionality, simplifying the greeting message sending process.
- Enhanced documentation in `local-plugins.md` with examples for using chunked message sending, improving clarity on handling long messages and rate limits.
- Replaced direct SQLite connection calls with a context manager in various modules to ensure proper resource management and prevent file descriptor leaks.
- Introduced a new `connection` method in `DBManager` to standardize connection handling.
- Updated all relevant database interactions in modules such as `feed_manager`, `scheduler`, `commands`, and others to utilize the new connection method.
- Improved code readability and maintainability by consolidating connection logic.
- Removed the custom `_decode_escape_sequences` method from multiple classes and replaced it with a centralized `decode_escape_sequences` function in the utils module.
- Updated all relevant modules (CommandManager, MessageScheduler, GreeterCommand) to utilize the new function for decoding escape sequences in configuration strings, improving code maintainability and consistency.
- Enhanced the config example to clarify the usage of escape sequences in messages.
- Updated the `CommandManager` and `BaseCommand` classes to include an optional `skip_user_rate_limit` parameter in the `send_response`, `send_dm`, and `send_channel_message` methods, allowing automated responses to bypass user rate limits.
- Adjusted the `GreeterCommand` to utilize the new parameter, ensuring that automated greetings do not trigger user rate limiting checks.
- Enhanced documentation to clarify the purpose of the new parameter and its impact on message sending behavior.
- Revised `config.ini.example` and `README.md` to clarify the usage of escape sequences for newlines, changing from double backslashes (`\\n`) to single backslashes (`\n`).
- Enhanced comments in `CommandManager` and `GreeterCommand` to reflect the updated escape sequence behavior, ensuring accurate processing of newline characters and literal backslashes.
- Improved logging in `GreeterCommand` for better debugging of mesh info formatting.
- Implemented `_decode_escape_sequences` method in `GreeterCommand` to process escape sequences like `\\n`, `\\t`, and `\\r` in greeting messages.
- Updated `_load_config` to decode escape sequences in `greeting_message` and `mesh_info_format`, enhancing user flexibility in message formatting.
- Added decoding for per-channel greetings to ensure consistent message formatting across different channels.
- Introduced a new get_connection method in DBManager to standardize database connection creation with proper configuration.
- Updated all instances in GreeterCommand where sqlite3.connect was used to utilize the new get_connection method, improving code consistency and maintainability.
