4 - shogi_server/command.rb:
5 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
6 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
7 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
9 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
12 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
13 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
14 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
15 impatiently sending a move twice.
17 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
20 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previouslly,
21 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
22 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
25 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
28 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
29 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
30 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
31 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
42 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
45 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
46 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
47 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
48 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
49 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
50 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
51 appended to the record file.
52 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
53 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
55 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
57 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
59 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
62 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
63 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
65 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
68 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
69 been deprectated. The server will decide history file names such
70 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
71 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
74 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
77 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
79 A human player is recommened to use a name ending with '_human'.
80 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
81 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
82 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
83 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instread of the
84 previous class: StartGame.
85 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
86 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
88 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
91 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
93 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
96 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
97 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
98 ignored for the calculation.
100 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
103 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
104 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
105 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
106 Instruction to use the game result list file:
107 1. Make a list of game results from exisiting CSA files with
109 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
110 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
111 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
112 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
114 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
116 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
119 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
120 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
121 requires two steps as follows:
122 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
123 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
125 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
128 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
131 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
132 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
133 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
134 players can play a new game with the game name.
136 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
138 ex. %%SETBUOYGAME buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
139 ex. %%SETBUOYGAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
140 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
142 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
143 spcific position that you want to start with.
144 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
145 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
146 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
147 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
148 game is removed automatically by the server.
150 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
151 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
152 allowed to delete it.
153 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
154 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
155 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
156 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
160 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
163 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
165 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
168 - An emtpy floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
169 issue has been fixed.
172 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
175 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
176 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
177 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
180 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
183 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
184 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
185 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
186 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
189 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
192 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
193 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
196 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
198 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
199 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
202 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
205 - Improved performance.
207 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
210 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
211 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
212 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
214 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
216 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
217 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
219 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
222 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
223 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
224 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
225 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
227 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
230 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
231 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
233 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
236 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
237 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
239 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
240 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
241 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
242 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
243 time out. (Closes: #14469)
245 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
248 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
249 the filename at the bottom of a genrated page. A text specific to
250 wdoor should be written by using this option.
252 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
255 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
258 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
259 incomplete records are skipped.
260 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
261 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
262 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
263 names in command line arguments.
265 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
268 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
271 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
272 by command line options, expecially in case of the daemon mode.
274 - A lotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
277 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
280 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
282 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
285 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
286 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
287 records are taken care of when games are matched.
289 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
291 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
292 - Display time control graphs as well.
293 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
296 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
299 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
300 - Daemon mode is available.
301 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
302 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
303 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
305 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
308 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
309 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
311 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
314 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
315 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
316 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
317 of the game. (Closes #12821)
318 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
319 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
320 it might have prevented other players from processing until
321 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
323 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
326 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
327 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
330 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
333 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
335 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
338 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
339 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
341 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
344 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
345 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
346 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
347 sending a HUP signal to the server.
348 - The server log will be rotated daily.
350 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
353 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
354 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
355 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
356 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
357 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
359 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
362 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
364 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
367 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
368 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
370 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
371 method error in Pairing.
373 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
376 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
377 This bug has been fixed.
378 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
379 This issue has been fixed.
381 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
384 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
385 "2008/05/05/*.csa". Thease days, we have many games in a day.
386 This change will help users browse a file list.
388 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
391 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
394 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
397 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
398 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
401 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
404 - The half-life period is now configurable.
405 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
407 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
410 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
412 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
415 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
416 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
418 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
421 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
424 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
427 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
428 issue has been fixed.
429 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
430 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
431 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
432 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
435 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
438 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
439 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
440 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
441 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
443 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
445 * [util/players-graph.rb]
446 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
448 - Small PNG gets smaller.
450 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
453 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
454 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
456 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
459 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
460 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
461 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
463 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
466 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
467 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
468 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
471 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
473 * [util/players-graph.rb]
474 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
476 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
479 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
480 server. This issue has been fixed.
482 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
485 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
486 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
487 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
488 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
491 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
494 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
495 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
496 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
498 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
499 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
500 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
502 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
503 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
505 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
508 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
509 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
511 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
514 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
515 recently are not listed.
517 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
519 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
521 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
522 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
524 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
526 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
528 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
529 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
530 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
531 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
532 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
533 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
534 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
535 will be removed when the server shuts down.
537 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
540 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
541 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
542 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
543 day. This issue has been fixed.
545 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
548 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
549 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
550 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
552 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
555 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
556 It may not work with lower verions.
558 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
561 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
562 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
563 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
565 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
568 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
569 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
570 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
572 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
573 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
575 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
578 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
579 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
580 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
581 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
582 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
583 - Show revision in a start up message.
585 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
588 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
589 send LF, the server sends back LF.
590 - More care for socket errors.
592 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
594 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
595 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
598 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
600 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
602 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
605 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
606 - Daemon mode is available.
608 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
611 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
612 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
613 This issues has been fixed.
615 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
618 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
619 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
621 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
623 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
625 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
626 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
628 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
630 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
631 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
632 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
633 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
636 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
639 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
640 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
641 least a game with other players.
642 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
643 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
645 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
647 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
649 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
651 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
652 the calculation to complete.
654 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
