---|
| 68 | |
---|
[3048] | 69 | - Finally simplified the locking code again, and checked that no |

---|
| 72 | |
---|

---|
| 108 | two additionnal environment variables. |
---|
| 109 | |
---|
[3007] | 110 | - 1.25alpha10 (2006-09-03) : |

---|
| 138 | |
---|
| 139 | - pkusers now supports the --email command line switch. |

[2895] | 157 | - Introduced the 'askconfirmation' directive to interact with |
---|
| 158 | the end user through any script (pknotify is recommended) |
---|
| 159 | and see if he really wants to print when knowing the cost |
---|
| 160 | of the job. |
---|
| 161 | |
---|
[2891] | 162 | - Now uses pkipplib if present to directly retrieve the job |

[2760] | 215 | |
---|
[2773] | 216 | - optimized pkbcodes, pkprinters and pkusers using edpykota as |
---|
| 217 | the model. |
---|
[2765] | 218 | |
---|
[2762] | 219 | - 'edpykota --list' and 'pkusers --list' are now authorized |
---|
| 220 | to mere mortal users, but the list is restricted to informations |
---|
| 221 | about the current user. |
---|
| 222 | |
---|
[2759] | 223 | - Extended the functionnality of the 'onbackenderror' directive to |

---|
| 232 | |
---|
| 233 | - Introduced the pkusers command line tool to manage users and |
---|
| 234 | users groups. This command doesn't deal with print quota entries, |
---|
| 235 | which continue to be managed through the edpykota command line |
---|
| 236 | tool. |
---|
| 237 | |
---|
| 238 | - Major rewrite and incompatible changes to command line options |
---|
| 239 | in edpykota. This command now only deals with print quota |
---|
| 240 | entries. Printers, users (or users groups) now have to be created |
---|
| 241 | first using pkprinters or pkusers. |
---|
| 242 | |
---|
[2692] | 243 | - 1.24alpha12 : |
---|
| 244 | |

---|
| 246 | which duration two duplicate jobs are not considered duplicate |
---|
| 247 | jobs anymore. |
---|
| 248 | |
---|
| 249 | - Introduced the 'balancezero' directive to specify any value |
---|
| 250 | as the balance limit instead of 0.0. This can allow admins to |
---|
| 251 | give a few free credits to users, for example. |
---|
| 252 | |
---|
[2668] | 253 | - 1.24alpha11 : |
---|
| 254 | |
---|
[2686] | 255 | - Huge speed improvements when modifying billing codes and |
---|
| 256 | printers. |
---|
[2677] | 257 | |
---|
[2675] | 258 | - Both pkbcodes and pkprinters now display the percent done |
---|
| 259 | for all actions. |
---|
| 260 | |
---|

---|
| 270 | |
---|
| 271 | - Preliminary support for MySQL, thanks to Matt Hyclak. |
---|
| 272 | |
---|
[2631] | 273 | - 1.24alpha8 : |
---|
| 274 | |
---|
[2635] | 275 | - The 'preaccounter' configuration directive was introduced to control |
---|
| 276 | which parser to use for precomputation of the job's size. When unset, |
---|
| 277 | the internal parser is used just like it was previously. See |
---|
| 278 | conf/pykota.conf.sample for more details. |
---|
| 279 | |
---|
[2631] | 280 | - Now subprocesses launched through the overwrite_jobticket directive |
---|
| 281 | can also output 'CANCEL', to represent the user's own choice to |
---|
| 282 | cancel the print job. |
---|
| 283 | |
---|
[2622] | 284 | - 1.24alpha7 : |
---|
| 285 | |
---|
[2627] | 286 | - pkbanner now handles new print limiting modes correctly. |
---|
| 287 | |
---|
[2624] | 288 | - The cupspykota backend wrapper now accepts to be interrupted |
---|
| 289 | with a kill -INT. This causes an immediate and clean abort |
---|
| 290 | of the current print job. |
---|
| 291 | |
---|
[2623] | 292 | - Matt Hyclak contributed the possibility to store the printing |
---|
| 293 | history in a MySQL database. See the contributed/ directory |
---|
| 294 | for details. |
---|
| 295 | |
---|
[2622] | 296 | - Added 2006 to the copyright's years. |
---|
| 297 | |
---|
[2609] | 298 | - 1.24alpha6 : |
---|
| 299 | |
---|
[2615] | 300 | - Fixed internal SNMP and PJL handling code for very fast |
---|
| 301 | printers : PyKota didn't see them going from 'idle' |
---|
| 302 | to 'printing' to 'idle' again. |
---|
| 303 | |
---|
[2614] | 304 | - Now waitprinter.sh accepts SNMP version number and |
---|
| 305 | community name as arguments, thanks to Brandon |
---|
| 306 | Holbrook. |
---|
| 307 | |
---|
[2609] | 308 | - Now command line errors and Ctrl+C repectively cause |
---|
| 309 | PyKota commands to exit with status -2 and -3. |
---|
| 310 | |
---|
[2600] | 311 | - 1.24alpha5 : |
---|
| 312 | |
---|
[2605] | 313 | - All command line tools now accept -A | --arguments filename.args |
---|
| 314 | as a way to bypass the shell's maximal command line size : |
---|
| 315 | just put each argument on a line by itself in a file, and |
---|
| 316 | pass the file's name as the -A | --arguments command line |
---|
| 317 | option's argument. For now this won't be documented in |
---|
| 318 | commands' helps. |
---|
| 319 | |
---|
[2600] | 320 | - dumpykota can now dump the complete database in XML |
---|
| 321 | format. |
---|
| 322 | |
---|
[2593] | 323 | - 1.24alpha4 : |
---|
| 324 | |
---|
| 325 | - Added support for the SQLite3 backend. |
---|
| 326 | See pykota/initscripts/sqlite/README.sqlite |
---|
| 327 | |
---|
[2588] | 328 | - 1.24alpha3 : |
---|
| 329 | |
---|
| 330 | - Fix for mailandpopup.sh : smbstatus can't be run setuid, |
---|
| 331 | so we regain priviledges before running an external |
---|
| 332 | mailto directive. |
---|
| 333 | |
---|
[2584] | 334 | - 1.24alpha2 : |
---|
| 335 | |
---|
| 336 | - Introduce the "onbackenderror" directive in pykota.conf, to |
---|
| 337 | control if the user must be charged or not whenever a real |
---|
| 338 | CUPS backend fails. The default value is 'nocharge'. |
---|
| 339 | Set it to 'charge' if you think your users can cause a CUPS |
---|
| 340 | backend to fail. |
---|
| 341 | |
---|
| 342 | - Now mark original backends related problems as such in the |
---|
| 343 | printing history. Modified printquota.cgi and pykota.css |
---|
| 344 | to make them be more visible. |
---|
| 345 | |
---|
[2576] | 346 | - 1.24alpha1 : |

---|
[2581] | 348 | - Fixed a problem which caused backend errors to be ignored. |
---|
| 349 | |
---|
[2576] | 350 | - The sample LDIF file now contains the two necessary user |
---|
| 351 | entries to have an LDAP PyKota Admin and an LDAP PyKota |
---|
| 352 | ReadOnly user. The sample configuration files were updated |
---|
| 353 | to contain the default passwords used in the LDIF file. |
---|
| 354 | |
---|
| 355 | - dumpykota is now more strict when checking arguments. |
---|
| 356 | |
---|
[2562] | 357 | - 1.23 : |
---|

| 365 | - Improved French and Swedish translations. |
---|
| 366 | |
---|
[2474] | 367 | - 1.23beta : |
---|
| 368 | |
---|
| 369 | - Now the mailto directive is honored in all cases where the job is |
---|
| 370 | denied or a warning has to be issued, and the correct reason |
---|
| 371 | can be sent back to the user. |
---|
| 372 | |
---|
| 373 | - The PYKOTAREASON environment variable, if defined, contains the |
---|

---|
| 383 | be treated by pkturnkey by passing queues' names as additionnal |
---|
| 384 | arguments on pkturnkey's command line. |
---|
| 385 | |
---|
[2467] | 386 | - pkturnkey now supersedes pkhint with the help of the -c | --doconf |

---|
| 394 | |
---|
| 395 | - The -C | --comment command line switch was added to edpykota to |

---|
| 402 | |
---|
| 403 | - The -i | --ingroups command line switch to repykota allows |
---|
| 404 | PyKota Administrators to only lists members of the specified |

| 406 | |
---|
[2454] | 407 | - The -I | --increase command line switch to edpykota allows |

---|
| 418 | launched by the overwrite_jobticket directive more powerful. |
---|
| 419 | |
---|
[2447] | 420 | - Now autopykota also creates print quota entries for the user on the |

---|
| 450 | |
---|
| 451 | - Allows different databases to be used depending on the |

| 453 | use a master LDAP server for read+write, while letting |
---|
| 454 | normal users using the replicas for readonly access. |
---|
| 455 | NB : using different storage backends is also possible, |

---|
| 469 | - LPRng support is OFFICIALLY dropped for now. LPRng users are |
---|
| 470 | advised to download earlier releases or purchase the |
---|

---|
| 512 | |
---|
| 513 | - Extracted the GPL blurb from all commands' help, and use |

---|
[2305] | 546 | - 1.23alpha9 : |
---|
| 547 | |
---|
[2308] | 548 | - The denyduplicates directive now accepts a command line as an |
---|
| 549 | argument beside yes/no. The command is launched and must |
---|
| 550 | print either ALLOW or DENY to its standard output. Then the |
---|
| 551 | job gets allowed or denied by PyKota. |
---|
| 552 | This will allow user interaction in the near future. |

| 553 | |
---|

---|
| 566 | hidden because of the privacy directive is now translated at |

---|
[2276] | 576 | - 1.23alpha6 : |
---|
| 577 | |
---|
| 578 | - The data dumper's start= and end= date filtering options now |

---|
[2241] | 612 | - Sets current username to the user CUPS runs as instead of "root" |

---|
[2074] | 723 | - Allows software() (no arguments) to the software accounting |
---|
| 724 | directive. This saves a lot of CPU since the job is not |

---|
| 757 | |
---|
| 758 | - repykota's output format has changed an is not limited to |
---|
| 759 | 80 characters wide anymore. People who used to parse |
---|
| 760 | repykota's output in their own tools are strongly advised |
---|
| 761 | to parse dumpykota's output instead. |
---|

---|
[2032] | 782 | - dumpykota.cgi can now be run as a normal user as opposed to |

---|
[2014] | 807 | - Now dumpykota can dump the job history into CUPS' page_log |
---|
[2013] | 808 | format (even when the printing system is LPRng). This allows |
---|
| 809 | people to use tools like PrintAnalyzer or phpPrintAnalyzer |

---|
| 1141 | fooled by a change in number of copies : |
---|
| 1142 | The user can't ask for 200 copies of page 1 and 1 copy |
---|
| 1143 | of page 2 to fool PyKota anymore : |
---|
| 1144 | this would have been accounted for as 1 copy only, but |
---|
| 1145 | now the maximum value seen is used. |
---|
| 1146 | |
---|
[1681] | 1147 | - Relax checks for PCL5 header to accomodate some strange |
---|
| 1148 | printer drivers. |
---|
| 1149 | |
---|
[1680] | 1150 | - Now hardware accounting method works like software |
---|
| 1151 | accounting method wrt the subprocess' output. |
---|
| 1152 | |
---|
[1681] | 1153 | - Hardware and Software accounting stop the print queue |
---|
| 1154 | when the accounting subprocess didn't work. This will |
---|
| 1155 | be configurable in the near future. |
---|
| 1156 | |
---|
[1676] | 1157 | - 1.20alpha2 : |
---|
| 1158 | |
---|
[1678] | 1159 | - Now software accounting method reads accounter's |
---|
| 1160 | answer until a line with a single integer is |
---|
| 1161 | obtained or until all of its output has been read. |
---|
| 1162 | This should fix the problem some people have |
---|
| 1163 | when strange locale related messages are sent |
---|
| 1164 | when running subprocesses (Solaris only ?). |
---|
| 1165 | |
---|
[1676] | 1166 | - First version of ESC/P2 analyzer. Seems to work |
---|
| 1167 | ok at least with 'epson', 'epsonc', 'eps9mid' |
---|
| 1168 | and 'esp9high' ghostscript devices. Needs more |
---|
| 1169 | work to correctly analyze other devices. |
---|
| 1170 | |
---|
[1665] | 1171 | - 1.20alpha1 : |
---|
| 1172 | |
---|
[1675] | 1173 | - Fixed problem with number of copies in PCLXL parser. |
---|
| 1174 | |
---|
[1674] | 1175 | - Fixed problem with number of copies in PCL5 parser, |
---|
| 1176 | when number of copies was set outside of and before first |
---|
| 1177 | page. |
---|
| 1178 | |
---|
[1673] | 1179 | - Added workaround for number of copies directly set in |
---|
| 1180 | PostScript code. |
---|
| 1181 | |
---|
[1671] | 1182 | - Added german translation. |
---|
| 1183 | |
---|
[1665] | 1184 | - Fixed problem on first print for user group quota when |
---|
| 1185 | "enforcement: strict" is used. |
---|
| 1186 | |
---|
| 1187 | - Fixed interpolation problem in french translation. |
---|
| 1188 | |
---|
[1664] | 1189 | - 1.19 : |
---|
| 1190 | |
---|
| 1191 | - Updated existing translations. |
---|
| 1192 | |
---|
| 1193 | - Added final Thai and Greek translations. |
---|
| 1194 | |
---|
| 1195 | - Minor last minute bug fixes. |
---|
| 1196 | |
---|
[1629] | 1197 | - 1.19beta : |
---|
| 1198 | |
---|
| 1199 | - LPRng support for both software and hardware accounting seems |
---|
| 1200 | to be OK. |
---|
| 1201 | |
---|
| 1202 | - Translation files fixed because of fuzzy matching problem. |
---|
| 1203 | |
---|
[1639] | 1204 | - Fixed path to Swedish translation: 'sv' instead of 'se'. |
---|
[1633] | 1205 | |
---|
[1639] | 1206 | - Added first draft of Thai translation. |
---|
| 1207 | |
---|
| 1208 | - Fixed some minor bugs with Pychecker. |
---|
| 1209 | |
---|
[1622] | 1210 | - 1.19alpha35 : |
---|
| 1211 | |
---|
| 1212 | - Generic PDL analyzer now supports Binary PostScript documents |
---|
| 1213 | in addition to DSC compliant ones. |
---|
| 1214 | |
---|
[1611] | 1215 | - 1.19alpha34 : |
---|
| 1216 | |
---|
| 1217 | - LPRng support : software accounting seems to work fine, |
---|
| 1218 | but hardware accounting doesn't work yet. |
---|
| 1219 | |
---|
[1605] | 1220 | - 1.19alpha33 : |
---|
| 1221 | |
---|
| 1222 | - pykosd now accepts command line arguments. Enjoy ! |
---|
| 1223 | NB : due to a bug in xosd, you need xosd version 2.2.8 |
---|
| 1224 | or higher if you don't use the default C locale. |
---|
| 1225 | |
---|
[1600] | 1226 | - 1.19alpha32 : |
---|
| 1227 | |
---|
[1604] | 1228 | - Early (not working) version of the LPRng support rewrite. |
---|
[1600] | 1229 | |
---|
[1604] | 1230 | - Saner default configuration file. |
---|
| 1231 | |
---|
[1599] | 1232 | - 1.19alpha31 : |
---|
| 1233 | |
---|
| 1234 | - Fixed a double Python2.1 incompatibility with newer versions, |
---|
| 1235 | which prevented the PCL5 and the PCLXL parsers to work with |
---|
| 1236 | this older version of Python. |
---|
| 1237 | |
---|
[1592] | 1238 | - 1.19alpha30 : |
---|
| 1239 | |
---|
[1595] | 1240 | - Introduction of preliminary version of the pykosd command |
---|
| 1241 | |
---|
[1593] | 1242 | - Usernames, Groupnames and Printernames can now contain |
---|
| 1243 | ANY character, expected '/' and '@'. |
---|
| 1244 | |
---|
[1592] | 1245 | - Integrated most of the Debian work from Sergio |
---|
| 1246 | Gonz�z Gonz�z |
---|
| 1247 | |
---|
[1584] | 1248 | - 1.19alpha29 : |
---|
| 1249 | |
---|
[1591] | 1250 | - PCLXL parser should now correctly handle number of |
---|
| 1251 | copies set for each page. |
---|
| 1252 | |
---|
[1588] | 1253 | - Added testsuite for generic PDL analyzer. |
---|
| 1254 | |
---|
| 1255 | - Typo fixed in PCLXL parser. |
---|
| 1256 | |
---|
[1584] | 1257 | - Correctly dispatches error messages depending on the |
---|
| 1258 | situation : tools which can be run interactively will |
---|
| 1259 | ALWAYS output their logs to stderr, excepted for |
---|
| 1260 | their DEBUG messages, for which the "logger:" |
---|
| 1261 | directive as set in pykota.conf will be honored. |
---|
| 1262 | Tools which can't be run interactively will ALWAYS |
---|
| 1263 | honor the "logger:" directive as set in pykota.conf |
---|
| 1264 | |
---|
[1575] | 1265 | - 1.19alpha28 : |
---|
| 1266 | |
---|
[1582] | 1267 | - The description field for printers can now be set, |
---|
| 1268 | and is displayed in reports. |
---|
| 1269 | |
---|
| 1270 | - Fixed a small problem in SQL backend code. |
---|
| 1271 | |
---|
[1578] | 1272 | - Improved pkhint |
---|
| 1273 | |
---|
[1575] | 1274 | - First working PCL6 (aka PCLXL) parser ! |
---|
| 1275 | Doesn't handle copies yet. |
---|
| 1276 | |
---|
[1570] | 1277 | - 1.19alpha27 : |
---|
| 1278 | |
---|
[1573] | 1279 | - Additionnal 10% speed increase in PCL5 parser for GhostScript |
---|
| 1280 | generated files (untested yet with other PCL files). |
---|
| 1281 | |
---|
[1572] | 1282 | - Reintroduced the use of mmap in PCL5 parser : this speedups |
---|
| 1283 | PCL5 parsing by almost 4 times. |
---|
| 1284 | This 4x with the 3x below give us in fact a twelvefold increase |
---|
| 1285 | in performance for PCL5 parsing ! |
---|
| 1286 | |
---|
[1570] | 1287 | - The Python accelerator Psyco is now used if available |
---|
| 1288 | in the generic PDL parser : it speedups PCL5 parsing by |
---|
[1572] | 1289 | almost three times automagically. |
---|
[1570] | 1290 | |
---|
[1564] | 1291 | - 1.19alpha26 : |
---|
| 1292 | |
---|
| 1293 | - Fixed PCL5 parser according to the sources of rastertohp. |
---|
| 1294 | |
---|
[1566] | 1295 | - Fixed number of copies handling in PCL5 parser : the number |
---|
| 1296 | of copies could vary from page to page. |
---|
[1568] | 1297 | |
---|
| 1298 | - Added more debug information to PCLXL parser. |
---|
[1566] | 1299 | |
---|
[1556] | 1300 | - 1.19alpha25 : |
---|
| 1301 | |
---|
[1558] | 1302 | - Added new "description" field to printers in both |
---|
[1556] | 1303 | PostgreSQL and LDAP. No code to handle this yet. |
---|
| 1304 | |
---|
[1558] | 1305 | - Reversed the fix for power save mode in printers : |
---|
[1557] | 1306 | no paper or tray open would have caused people to |
---|
| 1307 | be undercharged. |
---|
| 1308 | |
---|
[1558] | 1309 | - Preliminary version of MySQL initialization script. |
---|
| 1310 | |
---|
[1552] | 1311 | - 1.19alpha24 : |
---|
| 1312 | |
---|
| 1313 | - Native PDF parsing code now works perfectly with |
---|
| 1314 | Python 2.1 and above, and is way faster than before. |
---|
| 1315 | GhostScript is not used anymore to convert PDF to PS, |
---|
| 1316 | because PDF is parsed directly. |
---|
| 1317 | |
---|
[1545] | 1318 | - 1.19alpha23 : |
---|
| 1319 | |
---|
[1549] | 1320 | - Fixed waitprinter.sh wrt PowerSave mode and some |
---|
| 1321 | printers. Thanks to Ryan Suarez. |
---|
| 1322 | |
---|
[1550] | 1323 | - Smart PDL analyzer now recognizes PDF too : two |
---|
| 1324 | PDF parsing methods are used : a native one which |
---|
| 1325 | is very fast but requires Python 2.3 or above, and |
---|
| 1326 | a slower one which uses Ghostscript. PyKota detects |
---|
| 1327 | automatically which method to use depending on your |
---|
| 1328 | version of Python. |
---|
[1547] | 1329 | |
---|
[1546] | 1330 | - All tracebacks now include PyKota's version number. |
---|
[1545] | 1331 | |
---|
[1542] | 1332 | - 1.19alpha22 : |
---|
| 1333 | |
---|
[1544] | 1334 | - Ensures that the file pointer for job's data is |
---|
| 1335 | reset to the start of the job's datas after the |
---|
| 1336 | job's size pre-computation phase. |
---|
| 1337 | |
---|
[1543] | 1338 | - Improved PostScript detection code for bad drivers |
---|
| 1339 | which don't correctly switch languages between PJL |
---|
| 1340 | and PS. |
---|
| 1341 | |
---|
[1542] | 1342 | - Even better debugging code. |
---|
| 1343 | |
---|
[1541] | 1344 | - 1.19alpha21 : |
---|
| 1345 | |
---|
[1542] | 1346 | - Additionnal check. |
---|
[1541] | 1347 | |
---|
[1536] | 1348 | - 1.19alpha20 : |
---|
| 1349 | |
---|
| 1350 | - More complete logging messages wrt accounters. |
---|
| 1351 | |
---|
[1539] | 1352 | - Now catches early failures occuring when the configuration |
---|
| 1353 | files are parsed. |
---|
| 1354 | |
---|
[1526] | 1355 | - 1.19alpha19 : |
---|
| 1356 | |
---|
| 1357 | - Fixed over-verbose exits when displaying help |
---|
| 1358 | or version. |
---|
[1527] | 1359 | |
---|
| 1360 | - Extended some PATH in the shell scripts |
---|
[1532] | 1361 | |
---|
| 1362 | - Deleting an user now also deletes his payments history. |
---|
| 1363 | |
---|
| 1364 | - Doesn't explicitely ignore SIGCHLD anymore. This seems to |
---|
| 1365 | cause problems. |
---|
[1500] | 1366 | |
---|
[1522] | 1367 | - 1.19alpha18 : |
---|
| 1368 | |
---|
| 1369 | - History of payments is now stored in the database, and |
---|
| 1370 | updated each time an user's balance is modified with |
---|
| 1371 | edpykota --balance. This history represents each time |
---|
| 1372 | the user was given some positive or negative credit, |
---|
| 1373 | but doesn't reflect price paid for jobs, which appear |
---|
| 1374 | in the jobs history instead. |
---|
| 1375 | |
---|
[1524] | 1376 | - Jobs history web reports now include the job's size in |
---|
| 1377 | bytes. Also columns were reordered to render the report |
---|
| 1378 | more easily readable. |
---|
| 1379 | |
---|
[1517] | 1380 | - 1.19alpha17 : |
---|
| 1381 | |
---|
| 1382 | - Mysterious bug (program exited unexpectedly without leaving |
---|
| 1383 | any log message) which occured once in a while when |
---|
| 1384 | cancelling jobs should be fixed now. |
---|
| 1385 | |
---|
| 1386 | - New 'crashrecipient' directive. Disabled by |
---|
| 1387 | default. See sample configuration file to see how |
---|
| 1388 | to activate it. It is suggested that you activate it. |
---|
| 1389 | |
---|
| 1390 | - New PYKOTAJOBSIZEBYTES environment variable exported, |
---|
[1519] | 1391 | which contains the job's size in bytes. Empty jobs |
---|
[1521] | 1392 | are now denied. This value is now stored in the job |
---|
| 1393 | history (but not yet displayed from the web interface) |
---|
[1517] | 1394 | |
---|
[1521] | 1395 | - Preliminary work on payments storage : the PostgreSQL |
---|
| 1396 | and LDAP schemas should be OK now, but no code is written |
---|
| 1397 | yet to support this functionnality. |
---|
| 1398 | |
---|
[1502] | 1399 | - 1.19alpha16 : |
---|
| 1400 | |
---|
[1510] | 1401 | - the newuser and newgroup LDAP specific directives now accept |
---|
| 1402 | a second parameter to attach(), "fail" or "warn". If no entry |
---|
| 1403 | is found to attach PyKota attributes to, and "fail" was used, |
---|
| 1404 | then action is aborted and program exits in error. If "warn" |
---|
| 1405 | is used, a new entry is created but a warning message is logged. |
---|
| 1406 | |
---|
[1502] | 1407 | - The job's originating hostname is now stored in the database, |
---|
| 1408 | and exported as PYKOTAJOBORIGINATINGHOSTNAME in the environment. |
---|
| 1409 | |
---|
[1500] | 1410 | - 1.19alpha15 : |
---|
| 1411 | |
---|
| 1412 | - The old pykota filter is now removed. This means that |
---|
| 1413 | currently PyKota doesn't support LPRng anymore, but |
---|
| 1414 | LPRng support will be re-added, improved, in the near future. |
---|
| 1415 | |
---|
[1495] | 1416 | - 1.19alpha14 : |
---|
| 1417 | |
---|
[1499] | 1418 | - PYKOTAPRECOMPUTEDJOBSIZE and PYKOTAPRECOMPUTEDJOBPRICE |
---|
| 1419 | are now exported as environment variables. |
---|
| 1420 | |
---|
[1498] | 1421 | - Heavy CPU usage is now completely fixed it seems, by |
---|
| 1422 | introducing some 0.01 second sleeping when nothing to do. |
---|
| 1423 | |
---|
[1497] | 1424 | - Pre-computation of the job's size is now only |
---|
| 1425 | done when enforcement is "STRICT", this saves |
---|
| 1426 | CPU for people who don't want to use this new |
---|
| 1427 | feature. |
---|
| 1428 | |
---|
[1495] | 1429 | - New 'enforcement' directive which accepts either |
---|
| 1430 | STRICT or LAXIST. See sample configuration file |
---|
| 1431 | for details. |
---|
| 1432 | |
---|
[1494] | 1433 | - 1.19alpha13 : |
---|
| 1434 | |
---|
| 1435 | - Get back to an old version of the polling loop which |
---|
| 1436 | worked fine, but non-optimally. Will be optimized |
---|
| 1437 | as time permits. |
---|
| 1438 | |
---|
[1492] | 1439 | - 1.19alpha12 : |
---|
| 1440 | |
---|
| 1441 | - Job's size is now precomputed unconditionnally using |
---|
| 1442 | the generic PDL analyzer. |
---|
| 1443 | NB : This value is not yet used to pre-allow/deny the |
---|
| 1444 | job. |
---|
| 1445 | |
---|
[1490] | 1446 | - 1.19alpha11 : |
---|
| 1447 | |
---|
| 1448 | - The pykota filter is now completely deprecated and |
---|
| 1449 | can't be used anymore. LPRng users MUST download |
---|
| 1450 | an older version of PyKota. CUPS users MUST use |
---|
| 1451 | cupspykota. Better support for LPRng will come |
---|
| 1452 | in the near future. |
---|
| 1453 | |
---|
[1483] | 1454 | - 1.19alpha10 : |
---|
| 1455 | |
---|
[1488] | 1456 | - pykotme now uses generic PDL Analyzer directly instead |
---|
| 1457 | of spawning a new process. |
---|
| 1458 | |
---|
[1487] | 1459 | - Improvements to generic PDL Analyzer. |
---|
| 1460 | |
---|
[1485] | 1461 | - 25% Speedup in PCL parser. Getting more of the Python version |
---|
| 1462 | will probably be difficult, since the completely table driven |
---|
| 1463 | parser I wrote is slower than the original algorithm. Then, |
---|
| 1464 | the original algorithm is still used for now. |
---|
| 1465 | Probable that more speed could be achieved using mmap, at the |
---|
| 1466 | expense of severe memory consumption. |
---|
| 1467 | |
---|
[1483] | 1468 | - configuration simplifications : the "accounter" directive's |
---|
| 1469 | 'hardware' arguments now accepts what was in the "requester" |
---|
| 1470 | directive as it's content. The "requester" directive is not |
---|
| 1471 | supported anymore. See sample configuration file for details. |
---|
| 1472 | |
---|
[1478] | 1473 | - 1.19alpha9 : |
---|
| 1474 | |
---|
[1482] | 1475 | - pkpgcounter is now just a wrapper around the PDLAnalyzer class |
---|
| 1476 | |
---|
[1480] | 1477 | - pykotaOptions LDAP attribute now accepts non-ascii characters |
---|
| 1478 | too. |
---|
| 1479 | |
---|
[1478] | 1480 | - First try at cupspykota main loop rewrite |
---|
| 1481 | |
---|
[1475] | 1482 | - 1.19alpha8 : |
---|
| 1483 | |
---|
| 1484 | - 'querying' accounting method is now called 'hardware' |
---|
| 1485 | |
---|
| 1486 | - 'external' accounting method is now called 'software' |
---|
| 1487 | |
---|
| 1488 | - 'stupid' accounting method doesn't exist anymore |
---|
| 1489 | |
---|
| 1490 | - 'snmp' requester doesn't exist anymore |
---|
| 1491 | |
---|
| 1492 | - code simplifications in external requester |
---|
| 1493 | |
---|
[1473] | 1494 | - 1.19alpha7 : |
---|
| 1495 | |
---|
| 1496 | - Database schema change (both LDAP and PostgreSQL) to |
---|
| 1497 | allow storage of the job-originating-hostname attribute. |
---|
| 1498 | An SQL upgrade script is present. The code is not yet |
---|
| 1499 | capable of setting/retrieving this attribute. Support |
---|
| 1500 | for this functionnality will be added in the future. |
---|
| 1501 | |
---|
[1463] | 1502 | - 1.19alpha6 : |
---|

---|
| 1886 | |
---|
| 1887 | - From now on, the use of the pykota filter with CUPS |
---|
| 1888 | is deprecated. The pykota filter still has to be |
---|
| 1889 | used with LPRng though. |
---|
| 1890 | |
---|
[1179] | 1891 | - 1.16alpha6 : |
---|
| 1892 | |
---|
| 1893 | - Bug fixed : when edpykota was used to add a printer |
---|
| 1894 | with no user or group name, a bad user/group name "*" was |
---|
| 1895 | added to the database. |
---|
| 1896 | |
---|
[1178] | 1897 | - 1.16alpha5 : |
---|
| 1898 | |
---|
| 1899 | - New CUPS backend supports device enumeration ! |
---|
| 1900 | This means that NO manual CUPS configuration has to |

| 1926 | |
---|
| 1927 | - Command line tools now accept multiple printer |
---|
| 1928 | names or wildcards, separated with commas. |

---|
| 1940 | - Job history can be disabled if needed. |
---|
| 1941 | This feature may be useful for people who use the LDAP |
---|
| 1942 | backend and don't want their LDAP tree to grow out of |
---|
| 1943 | control. |
---|

---|
[1138] | 1945 | - 1.15alpha7 : |

---|
[1121] | 1962 | - 1.15alpha3 : |
---|
| 1963 | |
---|
| 1964 | - CGI script now tries to restrict view when the |
---|
| 1965 | REMOTE_USER environment variable is set. This allows |
---|
| 1966 | people to protect its use with .htaccess files. |
---|
| 1967 | When unprotected, or if REMOTE_USER is 'root', then |
---|
| 1968 | unrestricted access is granted. |

---|
[1113] | 1982 | - 1.14 : |
---|
| 1983 | |
---|
| 1984 | - The PostgreSQL database connection is now always closed before |
---|
| 1985 | exit. The LDAP database connection too, but it didn't suffer |
---|
| 1986 | from the problem anyway, AFAICT. |
---|
| 1987 | |
---|
[1111] | 1988 | - 1.14beta2 : |
---|
| 1989 | |
---|
| 1990 | - An LDAP-specific configuration field was introduced, usermail. |

---|
| 2000 | See sample configuration file for details. |
---|
| 2001 | |

---|
| 2018 | |
---|
| 2019 | - edpykota now doesn't check if the user/group is above |
---|
| 2020 | quota. The check is only done at print time. This |
---|
| 2021 | prevents the sending of email messages when creating |
---|
| 2022 | user quotas if quota is already reached at creation |
---|
| 2023 | time. |
---|
| 2024 | |
---|

---|
| 2063 | a warning message. |

[1029] | 2152 | |
---|
[1021] | 2153 | - A single user/password pair is used to connect |
---|
| 2154 | to the database backend. The storageuser configuration |
---|
| 2155 | field, and its associated passwords storageuserpw, are |
---|
| 2156 | not used anymore. |
---|
[1029] | 2157 | |
---|
[1022] | 2158 | - You can now set PyKota in debug mode, see sample configuration |
---|
| 2159 | file for details. |

| 2179 | repykota now works reasonably well with the sample LDAP directory. |
---|
[1016] | 2180 | |
---|
[1014] | 2181 | - 1.08alpha4 : |
---|
| 2182 | |
---|

[1000] | 2190 | - 1.08alpha3 : |
---|
| 2191 | |
---|
| 2192 | - External accounting methods were partly rewritten : |
---|
| 2193 | |
---|
| 2194 | - No more "broken pipe" should happen. |
---|
| 2195 | |
---|
| 2196 | - They now take care of the number of copies |
---|
| 2197 | This may be unneeded though, if the postscript |
---|
| 2198 | file already does this, because this would |
---|
| 2199 | overcharge users (number of copies counted |
---|
| 2200 | two times). NEEDS MORE TESTING. |
---|
| 2201 | |
---|
| 2202 | - The sample configuration file now contains |
---|
| 2203 | an external accounting method example which should |
---|
| 2204 | work with all DSC compliant Postscript files. |
---|
| 2205 | |
---|
| 2206 | - Some small bugs were fixed. |
---|
| 2207 | |
---|
[998] | 2208 | - 1.08alpha2 : |
---|
| 2209 | |
---|
| 2210 | - Now works with net-snmp v5.0 and above. |
---|
| 2211 | It already worked, but the sample configuration |
---|
[1000] | 2212 | file didn't contain appropriate values... |
---|
[998] | 2213 | |
---|
[991] | 2214 | - 1.07 : Release of the Shame ! |
---|
| 2215 | |
---|
| 2216 | - The external accounting methods driver was left out of |
---|
| 2217 | the CVS tree. Nobody could use it since it wasn't included ! |
---|
| 2218 | |
---|
[989] | 2219 | - 1.06 : |
---|
| 2220 | |
---|
| 2221 | - Severe bug fixed : if you had a printer in |
---|
| 2222 | power saving state which couldn't answer immediately, |
---|
| 2223 | a bug was triggered. |
---|
| 2224 | It was caused by a bad copy/paste which |
---|
| 2225 | forgot to import a Python module at run time. |
---|
| 2226 | |
---|
[980] | 2227 | - 1.05 : |
---|
| 2228 | |
---|
| 2229 | - External accounters are finally available ! |
---|
| 2230 | This means that you can plug any page accounting |
---|
| 2231 | method you like by setting the appropriate |
---|
| 2232 | 'accounter' field in /etc/pykota.conf |
---|
| 2233 | See the sample conf/pykota.conf.sample to |
---|
| 2234 | learn how to do. |
---|
| 2235 | |
---|
| 2236 | NB : Both 'external' and 'stupid' accounting methods |
---|
| 2237 | account a job size just before *this* job is |
---|
| 2238 | sent to the printer. |
---|
| 2239 | The original 'querying' method accounts a job |
---|
| 2240 | size just before *the next* job is sent to |
---|
| 2241 | the printer. |
---|
| 2242 | |
---|
[976] | 2243 | - 1.05alpha3 : |
---|
| 2244 | |
---|
| 2245 | - A 'stupid' and unreliable accounting method was |
---|
| 2246 | implemented to serve as an example on how to |
---|
| 2247 | do this sort of things. This method only counts |
---|
| 2248 | the 'showpage' statements in the input data. |
---|
| 2249 | See sample configuration file for details. |
---|
| 2250 | Pluggable accounting methods work, but I advise |
---|
| 2251 | you TO NOT USE THIS ONE WHICH IS JUST AN EXAMPLE. |
---|
| 2252 | It is not reliable enough to be used. |
---|
[978] | 2253 | Use the 'querying' accounting method instead. |
---|
[976] | 2254 | |
---|
[973] | 2255 | - 1.05alpha2 : |
---|
| 2256 | |
---|
| 2257 | - Pluggable accounting methods. |
---|
| 2258 | |
---|
[975] | 2259 | - Better error handling. |
---|
| 2260 | |
---|
[962] | 2261 | - 1.05alpha1 : |
---|
| 2262 | |
---|
[969] | 2263 | - SECURITY file added to help improve PyKota's security. |
---|
| 2264 | |
---|
[962] | 2265 | - Extracting the printer's internal page counter is now |
---|
| 2266 | tried several times, waiting several seconds between |
---|
| 2267 | two tries. This lets the time to warm up for some printers |
---|
| 2268 | which don't answer when they are sleeping (my Apple |
---|
| 2269 | LaserWriter 16/600 PS is in this case, maybe others too) |
---|

[960] | 2273 | - 1.04 : |
---|
[956] | 2274 | |
---|
| 2275 | - Default print policy for users/groups unknown from |
---|
| 2276 | the print quota system is now DENY instead of ALLOW, |
---|
| 2277 | since ALLOW can generate inaccurate results |
---|
| 2278 | (incorrect job sizes charged to the wrong persons) |
---|
| 2279 | |
---|
[954] | 2280 | - LPRng support works ! |
---|
| 2281 | |
---|
[953] | 2282 | - A bug was introduced some time ago wrt printers' default |
---|
| 2283 | policy for unknown users. It is now corrected. |

---|
| 2286 | printer, if they are defined. |
---|
| 2287 | |
---|
[947] | 2288 | - Minor display bug fixed in repykota. |
---|

---|
| 2290 | - Problem when running repykota with an empty database was fixed. |
---|
| 2291 | |
---|
[942] | 2292 | - 1.03 : |
---|
| 2293 | |
---|
| 2294 | - Upgrade script included for earlier versions. |
---|
| 2295 | Please look inside the initscripts subdirectory. |
---|
[965] | 2296 | THE DATABASE SCHEMA HAS CHANGED, PLEASE UPGRADE. |
---|
[942] | 2297 | |
---|
[932] | 2298 | - repykota now reports account balances too. |
---|
[929] | 2299 | |
---|
[932] | 2300 | - PyKota now has a nice logo, see the logos |
---|
| 2301 | subdirectory. |
---|
| 2302 | |
---|
[936] | 2303 | - Manual pages were finally updated. |
---|
| 2304 | |
---|
[927] | 2305 | - Group quotas seem to work now ! |
---|
| 2306 | |
---|
[910] | 2307 | - The new database schema allows to keep an history of all |
---|
| 2308 | jobs as well as charge users per page and/or per job, |
---|
| 2309 | and track users' account balance. |
---|
| 2310 | |
---|
[917] | 2311 | - edpykota now accepts much more command line options to |
---|
| 2312 | use the new functionnalities. See edpykota --help for |
---|
| 2313 | details. |
---|
| 2314 | |
---|
[885] | 2315 | - The installation script now allows to install the sample |
---|
| 2316 | configuration file during first installation. |
---|
[892] | 2317 | |
---|
| 2318 | - More group quota code works, but still not finished. |
---|
[885] | 2319 | |
---|
[894] | 2320 | - The CGI script displays a link to PyKota's website. |
---|
| 2321 | |
---|
[899] | 2322 | - The job history is now kept, this will allow per-period |
---|
| 2323 | reports in the future. |
---|
[900] | 2324 | |
---|
| 2325 | - After having modified the quota for an user with edpykota, |
---|
| 2326 | a quota check is done to eventually warn the user/admin about |
---|
| 2327 | a quota which is too low to print. |
---|
| 2328 | |
---|
[901] | 2329 | - A workaround is provided for HP Printers : their internal |
---|
| 2330 | page counter is only saved to NVRAM in a 10 increment, so |
---|
| 2331 | if you switch them off and then on, the reported page counter |
---|
| 2332 | may be lower than the real number of pages printed. |
---|
| 2333 | See http://web.mit.edu/source/third/lprng/doc/LPRng-HOWTO-15.html |
---|
[909] | 2334 | We unconditionnally set the last job's page count to |
---|
| 2335 | abs(int((10 - abs(lastcounter(snmp) - lastcounter(storage)) / 2)) |
---|
| 2336 | in this case. |
---|
[908] | 2337 | For a more accurate accounting, never switch your HP printers |
---|
| 2338 | off. |
---|
[901] | 2339 | |
---|
| 2340 | - A fix is provided for printers which only have a volatile |
---|
| 2341 | page counter (reset to 0 every time you switch the printer on) |
---|
[908] | 2342 | This should allow PyKota to work reasonably fine with HP Laserjet |
---|
| 2343 | 4L/5L/6L, not perfect, but better than nothing. |
---|
[901] | 2344 | See http://web.mit.edu/source/third/lprng/doc/LPRng-HOWTO-15.html |
---|
[908] | 2345 | For a more accurate accounting, never switch your HP printers |
---|
[925] | 2346 | off. This is untested, please report any problem. |
---|
[901] | 2347 | |
---|
[907] | 2348 | - A bug was fixed when edpykota --add was used with users who already |
---|

---|
| 2360 | print quota or by account balance. |
---|
[919] | 2361 | |
---|
[877] | 2362 | - 1.02 : |
---|
[859] | 2363 | |
---|
[871] | 2364 | - The installation script now checks for software availability |
---|
| 2365 | and in case a software is missing asks the user if he |
---|
| 2366 | wants to continue with the installation or abort it. |
---|
| 2367 | |
---|
[872] | 2368 | - The configuration file pykota.conf is now expected to be |
---|
| 2369 | found in /etc instead of in /etc/cups |
---|
| 2370 | The installation script prompts the user to see if he |
---|
| 2371 | wants to move an old configuration file to the new location |
---|
| 2372 | if needed. |
---|
| 2373 | |
---|

---|
| 2375 | |
---|

---|
| 2377 | Server is listening, see sample configuration file for details. |

---|
[852] | 2384 | - 1.01 : |
---|
| 2385 | |
---|
| 2386 | - The configuration file now accepts an option |
---|
| 2387 | to choose the recipient(s) of the email messages : |
---|
| 2388 | |
---|
| 2389 | - DevNull means no one will receive them. |
---|
| 2390 | - User means only the user will receive them. |
---|
| 2391 | - Admin means only the admin will receive them. |
---|
| 2392 | - Both means the User and the Admin will receive them. |
---|
| 2393 | |
---|
[853] | 2394 | - The configuration file now uses hard-coded default values |
---|
| 2395 | when an option is not set. See sample configuration file |
---|
| 2396 | for details. |

| 2397 | |
---|
[852] | 2398 | - Manual pages are included since 1.00, but I forgot to |

[846] | 2406 | - 1.00 : |
---|
| 2407 | |
---|
| 2408 | - edpykota now accepts a --noquota option. This |
---|
| 2409 | disable quota checking while still doing page |
---|
| 2410 | accounting. This is really useful for people |
---|
| 2411 | who don't want to limit their users but want |
---|
| 2412 | to know how much pages they print. |
---|
| 2413 | |
---|
| 2414 | - Some untested scripts were added to retrieve |
---|
| 2415 | the life time page counter of non-SNMP printers. |
---|
| 2416 | |
---|
| 2417 | - Every directory now has a specific README file. |

---|
| 2425 | - When an user wasn't allowed to print, the quota for |
---|
[835] | 2426 | the previous user wasn't updated. This is now fixed. |

| 2435 | |
---|
| 2436 | - edpykota accepts wildcards on its command line for users/groups too |
---|
| 2437 | if the --add option is not set, e.g. : |
---|
| 2438 | |
---|
| 2439 | $ edpykota --printer lp --softlimit 50 --hardlimit 100 "jer*" |
---|
| 2440 | |
---|
[821] | 2441 | - If no user name is passed at all, then a default wildcard of "*" |
---|
[819] | 2442 | which means apply the command on ALL users for this printer is used. |

---|

---|
[808] | 2448 | - Options requester, policy, admin, adminmail and gracedelay can now |
---|
[807] | 2449 | be set either globally or per printer. The printer option has |
---|
| 2450 | priority if both are defined. |
---|
[803] | 2451 | |
---|
[807] | 2452 | - More powerful configuration parser. |
---|
| 2453 | |
---|
| 2454 | - If all options are defined globally, there's no need to |
---|
| 2455 | define a section for each printer in the configuration |
---|
| 2456 | file anymore. Just define a [global] section and it's ok. |
---|
