This should definitely fix the crash with Python 3.12, even when scripts are
auto-loaded (the previous fix was working only when the scripts are loaded
manually).
Python 3.12 has a bug where it crashes when you unload all the
interpreters unless you make sure to unload the first interpreter you
loaded last. For some reason, loading the eval interpreter before any
scripts also seems to prevent the issue, even if the eval interpreter is
unloaded before the other interpreters.
So this just evals an empty string at the end of initing the Python
plugin if the Python version is 3.12, to make sure the eval interpreter
is loaded first.
Fixes#2046
The | syntax for unions is only supported in Python 3.10 and later.
Since Python 3.8 and 3.9 are still supported upstream for a while and we
had a user reporting on IRC that they couldn't use the stub file since
they are using 3.8, change to the old syntax for unions to support this.
There aren't really any drawbacks of this. It's just a bit more verbose,
and a typing import is necessary, but neither of those really matters in
a generated stub file.
The type "enum" replaces type "integer" when used with string values.
For compatibility, any option created with type "integer" and string values is
automatically created to "enum" on creation, with no error.
This fixes an issue with IRC URL given on command line when it starts with
`ircs://` or `irc6://`: the server is not created at all (only `irc://` works
fine).
This updates the Python examples to include all the possible return
values for the callbacks in config_new_section, like it is done in the C
example. It also aligns the order of the values with the C example.
The callback_read and callback_create_option functions in the scripting
APIs always get the value as a string, never as null. This means that if
the value is null, there is no way for the script to distinguish this
from an empty string for string options. This makes it impossible to
properly make options with fallback values, like the irc server and
server_default options, as far as I can see.
All the scripting languages except Tcl use that language's equivalent
for null. For JavaScript which has both null and undefined, null is
used. For Tcl, the magic null string defined in commit 197a7a01e is used
and the documentation is updated to describe that.
I tested this with these scripts:
https://gist.github.com/trygveaa/2d49c609addf9773d2ed16e15d1e3447
You can load all of those scripts and see the result with this command
(assuming you have the scripts in the current directory):
weechat -t -r "/filter add script * * script; /script load $(echo script_config.*)"
