Hi all! Just a quick note to let y'all know that PyOGP will be getting some attention here and there again for a while. Not that I or anyone else actually has any spare time to spend on it, but it is becoming a priority again to get functional automated regression testing working.
First thing I've done is create some maintenance repositories on bitbucket. http://bitbucket.org/enus_linden/pyogp.lib.base-maint http://bitbucket.org/enus_linden/pyogp.lib.client-maint http://bitbucket.org/enus_linden/pyogp.apps-maint Yesterday I tinkered with the client proxy script, and made some good progress. I'm on Mac (Snow Leopard/Python 2.6), and haven't checked any other configs. Linux should just work (fingers crossed). I have no clue atm if modern eventlet (one of pyogp's core dependencies) plays nicely on Windows these days. I'll get to checking these out eventually, but I won't for a while either as I'll be on vacation for 2 weeks, but I plan to play a bit while I'm away. To try out the client proxy: 1. make sure your environment is prepared: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/PyOGP_Client_Library_Development_Sandbox 2. install the main repos listed above to a virtualenv: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/PyOGP_Client_Library_Development_Sandbox#setup.py 3. check out the help for the client_proxy script: [14:07:40] [e...@sune] bin$ ./client_proxy --help Usage: client_proxy --port=PORT Options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --port=LOGIN_PORT Port to serve on (default 8080) --loginuri=LOGINURI Specifies the target loginuri to connect proxy to -v, --verbose enables logging, sets logging level to info, logs names of all packets -V, --verboseverbose enables logging, sets logging level to debug, logs contents of all packets 4. update arguments.txt (mac) or the sl shortcut params (windows) or gridargs.dat (linux), adding "--loginuri http://127.0.0.1:8080"; 5. run the client_proxy and then the viewer. All that's going on so far is logging of the proxied data, the fun comes later as we extend it's abilities. 6. This all works for me, I hope it does for you too. If not, there's just something to fix... I realized in exploring the proxy and the networking/udp protocol classes that a bit of refactoring would be good to do, just to simplify things. I'll probably tackle that next. I'm planning to focus on shoring up what exists now, and generating some more and better docs so that folks who want to play can do so more easily. I'll see if I can spare the time for regular Office Hours again once I return from my break as well. The primary objective in re-engaging here is to work on building out that test automation suite I talked about forever. I would love some help, if folks are interested. Using the proxy to record and perhaps be able to play back sessions would be awesome in regression testing. Taking what's observed there and extending the libraries themselves to enable crafting specific test cases and suites to regression test the simulator and grid will be a huge win. I'm not dead yet! Neither is PyOGP. <3 ~e
