Example plug-ins were modified to use init() instead of __init__().
Added new category in configuration - 'plugins'. It only holds one option for each plugin - 'active', which determines whether plugin should be activated on startup.
Now, Gajim remembers which plugins are active on exit, and activates them on next startup.
Added 'homepage' attribute to Plugin class.
Added (commented out) calls of pycallgraph in src/gajim.py for later use.
[xbright] Changed 'python' to 'python2.5' because code uses modules not available in previous versions of Python.
- basic PluginManager class that loads plugins from *.py files
in given directories
- Singleton metaclass was created to use with PluginManager;
notice: __init__ of class is called only once (not like in code
that is included in Python Cookbook)
- variable to keep paths of plugin directories has been created
(common.gajim.PLUGINS_DIRS); also added initilization of these
paths to common.ConfigPaths
- added global variable with PluginManager object:
common.gajim.plugin_manager
- created customized logger for plugin system ('gajim.plugin_system')
- created function decorator plugins.helpers.log_calls which logs
each call of function/method; it also logs when function is left
- base class Plugin for plug-in implementation added; not much
here - only empty class attributes: name, short_name, authors,
version, description
- based on Plugin class, first plugin was created named
LengthNotifierPlugin; it is used to notify users when they
exceed given length of message during writing it (text entry
field highlights)
- first GUI extension points works when ChatControl object
is created (it is used in mentioned plugin)
- added 'epydoc.conf' file customized a little bit (file
is also in trunk now)
- fixed indentation in common.sleepy module (also in trunk
now)
