4 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
5 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
7 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
10 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
11 been deprectated. The server will decide history file names such
12 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
13 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
16 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
19 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
21 A human player is recommened to use a name ending with '_human'.
22 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
23 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
24 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
25 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instread of the
26 previous class: StartGame.
27 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
28 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
30 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
33 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
35 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
38 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
39 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
40 ignored for the calculation.
42 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
45 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
46 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
47 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
48 Instruction to use the game result list file:
49 1. Make a list of game results from exisiting CSA files with
51 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
52 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
53 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
54 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
56 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
58 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
61 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
62 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
63 requires two steps as follows:
64 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
65 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
67 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
70 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
73 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
74 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
75 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
76 players can play a new game with the game name.
78 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
80 ex. %%SETBUOYGAME buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
81 ex. %%SETBUOYGAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
82 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
84 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
85 spcific position that you want to start with.
86 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
87 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
88 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
89 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
90 game is removed automatically by the server.
92 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
93 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
95 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
96 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
97 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
98 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
102 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
105 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
107 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
110 - An emtpy floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
111 issue has been fixed.
114 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
117 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
118 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
119 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
122 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
125 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
126 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
127 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
128 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
131 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
134 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
135 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
138 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
140 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
141 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
144 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
147 - Improved performance.
149 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
152 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
153 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
154 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
156 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
158 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
159 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
161 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
164 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
165 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
166 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
167 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
169 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
172 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
173 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
175 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
178 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
179 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
181 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
182 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
183 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
184 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
185 time out. (Closes: #14469)
187 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
190 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
191 the filename at the bottom of a genrated page. A text specific to
192 wdoor should be written by using this option.
194 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
197 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
200 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
201 incomplete records are skipped.
202 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
203 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
204 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
205 names in command line arguments.
207 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
210 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
213 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
214 by command line options, expecially in case of the daemon mode.
216 - A lotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
219 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
222 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
224 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
227 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
228 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
229 records are taken care of when games are matched.
231 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
233 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
234 - Display time control graphs as well.
235 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
238 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
241 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
242 - Daemon mode is available.
243 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
244 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
245 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
247 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
250 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
251 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
253 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
256 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
257 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
258 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
259 of the game. (Closes #12821)
260 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
261 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
262 it might have prevented other players from processing until
263 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
265 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
268 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
269 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
272 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
275 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
277 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
280 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
281 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
283 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
286 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
287 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
288 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
289 sending a HUP signal to the server.
290 - The server log will be rotated daily.
292 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
295 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
296 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
297 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
298 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
299 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
301 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
304 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
306 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
309 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
310 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
312 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
313 method error in Pairing.
315 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
318 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
319 This bug has been fixed.
320 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
321 This issue has been fixed.
323 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
326 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
327 "2008/05/05/*.csa". Thease days, we have many games in a day.
328 This change will help users browse a file list.
330 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
333 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
336 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
339 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
340 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
343 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
346 - The half-life period is now configurable.
347 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
349 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
352 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
354 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
357 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
358 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
360 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
363 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
366 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
369 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
370 issue has been fixed.
371 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
372 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
373 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
374 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
377 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
380 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
381 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
382 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
383 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
385 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
387 * [util/players-graph.rb]
388 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
390 - Small PNG gets smaller.
392 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
395 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
396 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
398 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
401 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
402 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
403 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
405 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
408 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
409 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
410 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
413 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
415 * [util/players-graph.rb]
416 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
418 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
421 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
422 server. This issue has been fixed.
424 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
427 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
428 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
429 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
430 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
433 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
436 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
437 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
438 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
440 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
441 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
442 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
444 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
445 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
447 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
450 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
451 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
453 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
456 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
457 recently are not listed.
459 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
461 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
463 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
464 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
466 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
468 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
470 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
471 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
472 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
473 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
474 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
475 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
476 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
477 will be removed when the server shuts down.
479 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
482 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
483 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
484 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
485 day. This issue has been fixed.
487 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
490 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
491 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
492 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
494 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
497 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
498 It may not work with lower verions.
500 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
503 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
504 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
505 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
507 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
510 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
511 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
512 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
514 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
515 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
517 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
520 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
521 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
522 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
523 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
524 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
525 - Show revision in a start up message.
527 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
530 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
531 send LF, the server sends back LF.
532 - More care for socket errors.
534 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
536 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
537 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
540 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
542 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
544 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
547 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
548 - Daemon mode is available.
550 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
553 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
554 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
555 This issues has been fixed.
557 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
560 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
561 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
563 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
565 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
567 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
568 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
570 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
572 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
573 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
574 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
575 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
578 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
581 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
582 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
583 least a game with other players.
584 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
585 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
587 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
589 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
591 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
593 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
594 the calculation to complete.
596 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
598 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
600 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
602 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
604 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
606 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
607 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
609 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
612 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
614 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
617 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
620 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
622 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
625 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
626 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
628 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
629 before-@-names are mapped to one.
631 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
633 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
635 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
637 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
638 - Correct the equations.
639 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.
641 2006-08-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
644 - Fix a bug. Now it can see black/white players in a csa file.
646 - Add a space in the output of %%RATING.
648 2006-08-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
650 * [mk_rate] Record numbers of win/loss games.
651 * Add mk_html, which generates html from players.yaml
652 * Fix test/test_board.rb. Now it works.
