Bonsoir café,
It is my pleasure to announce version 0.4 of Yogurt, a functional MUD
client. Version 0.4 makes Yogurt available as a standalone executable
that is able to dynamically load and reload Yogurt scripts. Here is a
small example of such a script:
module Minimal where
import Network.Yogurt
newmoon :: Session
newmoon = session
{ hostName = "eclipse.cs.pdx.edu"
, portNumber = 7680
, mudProgram = \reload -> do
mkCommand "reload" reload
}
Valid scripts define at least one session which is used to connect to
the MUD. mudProgram fields are provided with a reload action that when
invoked reloads the script without interrupting the MUD connection.
Of course, Yogurt also still offers hooks, timers, logging, variables
and more.
The executable is released as a separate package so that developers
wishing to use just the "pure" machinery can do that without inheriting
dependencies on the GHC API or readline library. To install the
executable, run:
$ cabal update
$ cabal install Yogurt -freadline
$ cabal install Yogurt-Standalone
Yogurt's new home page can be found at:
http://code.google.com/p/yogurt-mud/
And on hackage:
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/Yogurt
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/Yogurt-Standalone
I would love to hear your feedback! Suggestions, complaints, comments,
bug reports, experiences et cetera are all welcome.
Kind regards,
Martijn.
