the attached patch set adds the (still work-in-progress but already
working) RestPlugin base class and the RestRegionPlugin code. we are using
XML serialization.
currently working:
GET /admin/regions/ -> returns UUID list of known regions
GET /admin/regions/<UUID> -> returns detailed region information
we'll be adding support for POST/DELETE/PUT and also for
/admin/regions/<UUID>/name etc.
Implements the show version command.
If you type show version at the console, you will get the revision that opensim is running, assuming you have the .svn/entries file in your base directory (e.g. you are running from code extracted from our SVN repository)
A patch to also send this to the client should follow shortly
* Fixes the admin_shutdown xmlrpc method
* Adds a share/python/console/shutdown.py script for shutting down a background OpenSim
* For more details see http://xyzzyxyzzy.net/2008/04/29/console-less-opensim/
* There should also be instructions in the opensimulator wiki soon as well
Note: This is the first part of some changes from Dr Scofield to support console-less operation of an OpenSim region server.
The changes are not yet complete.
* refactors OpenSimMain into two classes: OpenSimMain and
OpenSimMainConsole. OpenSimMainConsole derives from OpenSimMain
and basically is the "old" OpenSimMain
* drops StartConsole from RegionApplicationBase (was only called
from the "old" OpenSimMain anyhow)
* reverts the changes to TryGetScene(string, out scene) as that
seems to work perfectly fine
* adds a check to region-remove to see whether
m_sceneManger.CurrentScene is non-null before comparing it against
the region-to-be-removed
the attached patch set is centered around RemoteAdminPlugin and focuses
mainly on making it more robust (i.e. more parameter checking and better
error reporting) but also we've re-implemented the LoadTerrain stuff that
got disabled during the terrain code reworking:
* missing PostInitialize() calls on region modules that were loaded
for regions created via RemoteAdmin's CreateRegion XmlRpc call
* re-implements RemoteAdmin's LoadTerrain XmlRpc call (probably lost
during the TerrainModule rework)
* adds lots more parameter checking and error reporting to RemoteAdmin
* adds a read-only property to RegionApplicationBase so that we can
access the CommsManager
* adds Exceptions to TerrainModule so that we get better error case
feedback (and can report more meaningful errors in turn)
* adds a CheckForTerrainUpdate() call to
TerrainModule.LoadFromFile() to make terrain changes effective
* adds TryGetCurrentScene(LLUUID) to SceneManager so that we can
retrieve Scenes not only by name but also by LLUUID
cheers,
dr scofield
* (and Ansgar/Ansi)
* Fleshes out the voice stubs to better interact with the viewer CAPS requests - no actual voice support yet!
* In his own words
"the attached patch enhances the existing voice support by returning a proper voice account user and password and is preparing the config file so that we can specify a SIP server (not yet working). currently the SIP is hardcoded. the next step is to refactor voice support into a region module. working on that. "
* Renamed plugin console message, to send a message to a plugin, use either "plugin <message>", or any unrecognised message will be sent ("plugin" sends explicitly) This replaces the old "script <message>".
* Terrain commands - "terrain <command>" now works again. "Script terrain <command>" does not. Many of the commands have now been reimplemented, eg load-tile. However some have new syntax.
* New console command handler, you can now use things like "terrain help" or "terrain save help". See TerrainModule.cs for an example of how to use the new "Commander" class.
* Commander class - advanced processing of console input and also enables a script API to be generated from registered console commands.
Most likely doesn't really work in grid mode as the generated textures are marked as temporary and I don't think they are updated to the asset server. We have to either live with these textures being sent to the asset server, and manually clean them out from time to time or wait until there is some asset management system in place.
Also currently the texture is only generated at region startup, it is not updated after terraforming.
