---|
| 133 | two additionnal environment variables. |
---|
| 134 | |
---|
[3007] | 135 | - 1.25alpha10 (2006-09-03) : |

---|
[2895] | 182 | - Introduced the 'askconfirmation' directive to interact with |
---|
| 183 | the end user through any script (pknotify is recommended) |
---|
| 184 | and see if he really wants to print when knowing the cost |
---|
| 185 | of the job. |
---|
| 186 | |
---|
[2891] | 187 | - Now uses pkipplib if present to directly retrieve the job |

---|
[2760] | 240 | |
---|
[2773] | 241 | - optimized pkbcodes, pkprinters and pkusers using edpykota as |
---|
| 242 | the model. |
---|
[2765] | 243 | |
---|
[2762] | 244 | - 'edpykota --list' and 'pkusers --list' are now authorized |
---|
| 245 | to mere mortal users, but the list is restricted to informations |
---|
| 246 | about the current user. |
---|
| 247 | |
---|
[2759] | 248 | - Extended the functionnality of the 'onbackenderror' directive to |

---|
| 257 | |
---|
| 258 | - Introduced the pkusers command line tool to manage users and |
---|
| 259 | users groups. This command doesn't deal with print quota entries, |

---|
| 261 | tool. |
---|
| 262 | |
---|
| 263 | - Major rewrite and incompatible changes to command line options |
---|
| 264 | in edpykota. This command now only deals with print quota |
---|
| 265 | entries. Printers, users (or users groups) now have to be created |
---|
| 266 | first using pkprinters or pkusers. |
---|
| 267 | |
---|
[2692] | 268 | - 1.24alpha12 : |
---|

---|
| 271 | which duration two duplicate jobs are not considered duplicate |
---|
| 272 | jobs anymore. |
---|
| 273 | |
---|
| 274 | - Introduced the 'balancezero' directive to specify any value |
---|
| 275 | as the balance limit instead of 0.0. This can allow admins to |
---|
| 276 | give a few free credits to users, for example. |
---|
| 277 | |
---|
[2668] | 278 | - 1.24alpha11 : |
---|
| 279 | |
---|
[2686] | 280 | - Huge speed improvements when modifying billing codes and |
---|
| 281 | printers. |

---|
| 284 | for all actions. |
---|
| 285 | |
---|

---|
| 291 | - Huge speed improvements when deleting users, printers, and |
---|
| 292 | billing codes. |
---|

---|
[2641] | 294 | - 1.24alpha9 : |
---|
| 295 | |
---|
| 296 | - Preliminary support for MySQL, thanks to Matt Hyclak. |
---|
| 297 | |
---|
[2631] | 298 | - 1.24alpha8 : |
---|
| 299 | |
---|
[2635] | 300 | - The 'preaccounter' configuration directive was introduced to control |
---|
| 301 | which parser to use for precomputation of the job's size. When unset, |
---|
| 302 | the internal parser is used just like it was previously. See |
---|
| 303 | conf/pykota.conf.sample for more details. |
---|
| 304 | |
---|
[2631] | 305 | - Now subprocesses launched through the overwrite_jobticket directive |
---|
| 306 | can also output 'CANCEL', to represent the user's own choice to |
---|
| 307 | cancel the print job. |
---|
| 308 | |
---|
[2622] | 309 | - 1.24alpha7 : |
---|
| 310 | |
---|
[2627] | 311 | - pkbanner now handles new print limiting modes correctly. |
---|
| 312 | |
---|
[2624] | 313 | - The cupspykota backend wrapper now accepts to be interrupted |
---|
| 314 | with a kill -INT. This causes an immediate and clean abort |
---|
| 315 | of the current print job. |
---|
| 316 | |
---|
[2623] | 317 | - Matt Hyclak contributed the possibility to store the printing |
---|
| 318 | history in a MySQL database. See the contributed/ directory |
---|
| 319 | for details. |
---|
| 320 | |
---|
[2622] | 321 | - Added 2006 to the copyright's years. |
---|
| 322 | |
---|
[2609] | 323 | - 1.24alpha6 : |
---|
| 324 | |
---|
[2615] | 325 | - Fixed internal SNMP and PJL handling code for very fast |
---|
| 326 | printers : PyKota didn't see them going from 'idle' |
---|
| 327 | to 'printing' to 'idle' again. |
---|
| 328 | |
---|
[2614] | 329 | - Now waitprinter.sh accepts SNMP version number and |
---|
| 330 | community name as arguments, thanks to Brandon |
---|
| 331 | Holbrook. |
---|
| 332 | |
---|
[2609] | 333 | - Now command line errors and Ctrl+C repectively cause |
---|
| 334 | PyKota commands to exit with status -2 and -3. |
---|
| 335 | |
---|
[2600] | 336 | - 1.24alpha5 : |
---|
| 337 | |
---|
[2605] | 338 | - All command line tools now accept -A | --arguments filename.args |
---|
| 339 | as a way to bypass the shell's maximal command line size : |
---|
| 340 | just put each argument on a line by itself in a file, and |
---|
| 341 | pass the file's name as the -A | --arguments command line |
---|
| 342 | option's argument. For now this won't be documented in |
---|
| 343 | commands' helps. |
---|
| 344 | |
---|
[2600] | 345 | - dumpykota can now dump the complete database in XML |
---|
| 346 | format. |
---|
| 347 | |
---|
[2593] | 348 | - 1.24alpha4 : |
---|
| 349 | |
---|
| 350 | - Added support for the SQLite3 backend. |
---|
| 351 | See pykota/initscripts/sqlite/README.sqlite |
---|
| 352 | |
---|
[2588] | 353 | - 1.24alpha3 : |
---|
| 354 | |
---|
| 355 | - Fix for mailandpopup.sh : smbstatus can't be run setuid, |
---|
| 356 | so we regain priviledges before running an external |
---|
| 357 | mailto directive. |
---|
| 358 | |
---|
[2584] | 359 | - 1.24alpha2 : |
---|
| 360 | |
---|
| 361 | - Introduce the "onbackenderror" directive in pykota.conf, to |
---|
| 362 | control if the user must be charged or not whenever a real |
---|
| 363 | CUPS backend fails. The default value is 'nocharge'. |
---|
| 364 | Set it to 'charge' if you think your users can cause a CUPS |
---|
| 365 | backend to fail. |
---|
| 366 | |
---|
| 367 | - Now mark original backends related problems as such in the |
---|
| 368 | printing history. Modified printquota.cgi and pykota.css |
---|
| 369 | to make them be more visible. |
---|
| 370 | |

---|
| 397 | |
---|
| 398 | - The PYKOTAREASON environment variable, if defined, contains the |

---|
| 408 | be treated by pkturnkey by passing queues' names as additionnal |
---|
| 409 | arguments on pkturnkey's command line. |
---|

---|
| 419 | |
---|

---|
| 427 | |
---|
| 428 | - The -i | --ingroups command line switch to repykota allows |
---|
| 429 | PyKota Administrators to only lists members of the specified |
---|
| 430 | group or groups (separated with commas). |
---|
| 431 | |
---|
[2454] | 432 | - The -I | --increase command line switch to edpykota allows |

---|
| 443 | launched by the overwrite_jobticket directive more powerful. |
---|
| 444 | |
---|
[2447] | 445 | - Now autopykota also creates print quota entries for the user on the |

---|
| 475 | |
---|
| 476 | - Allows different databases to be used depending on the |

| 479 | normal users using the replicas for readonly access. |
---|
| 480 | NB : using different storage backends is also possible, |

---|
| 495 | advised to download earlier releases or purchase the |

---|
| 537 | |
---|
| 538 | - Extracted the GPL blurb from all commands' help, and use |

---|
| 572 | |
---|
[2308] | 573 | - The denyduplicates directive now accepts a command line as an |
---|
| 574 | argument beside yes/no. The command is launched and must |
---|
| 575 | print either ALLOW or DENY to its standard output. Then the |
---|
| 576 | job gets allowed or denied by PyKota. |

---|
| 591 | hidden because of the privacy directive is now translated at |

[2276] | 601 | - 1.23alpha6 : |
---|
| 602 | |
---|

---|

---|
| 810 | environment variable just like printquota.cgi does, see |
---|
| 811 | the file cgi-bin/README for details. |
---|

[1694] | 1139 | - Now exports PYKOTAPRINTERHOSTNAME for network printers' |
---|
| 1140 | hostname or IP address. Set to 'localhost' when not |
---|
| 1141 | meaningful. |
---|
| 1142 | |
---|
[1693] | 1143 | - Fixed issue with how mod_auth_ldap Apache modules |
---|
| 1144 | fills the REMOTE_USER environment variable. |
---|
| 1145 | |
---|
[1692] | 1146 | - Fixed a bug in LDAP user deletion code. |
---|
| 1147 | |
---|
[1687] | 1148 | - 1.20alpha5 : |
---|
| 1149 | |
---|
| 1150 | - Introduces the new configuration directive 'onaccountererror' |
---|
| 1151 | to specify what must be done whenever the software or |
---|
| 1152 | hardware accounter fails. Allowed values are 'continue' and |
---|
| 1153 | 'stop' (default). |
---|
| 1154 | |
---|
| 1155 | - Minor fix in software accounter for a recently introduced |
---|
| 1156 | problem. |
---|
| 1157 | |
---|
[1686] | 1158 | - 1.20alpha4 : |
---|
| 1159 | |
---|
| 1160 | - Added support for more ghostscript devices in ESC/P2 |
---|
| 1161 | analyzer : stcolor, st800, escp, escpc are now supported. |
---|
| 1162 | |
---|
[1680] | 1163 | - 1.20alpha3 : |
---|
| 1164 | |
---|
[1683] | 1165 | - Small improvement in PostScript parser to avoid being |
---|
| 1166 | fooled by a change in number of copies : |
---|
| 1167 | The user can't ask for 200 copies of page 1 and 1 copy |
---|
| 1168 | of page 2 to fool PyKota anymore : |
---|
| 1169 | this would have been accounted for as 1 copy only, but |
---|
| 1170 | now the maximum value seen is used. |
---|
| 1171 | |
---|
[1681] | 1172 | - Relax checks for PCL5 header to accomodate some strange |
---|
| 1173 | printer drivers. |
---|
| 1174 | |
---|
[1680] | 1175 | - Now hardware accounting method works like software |
---|
| 1176 | accounting method wrt the subprocess' output. |
---|
| 1177 | |
---|
[1681] | 1178 | - Hardware and Software accounting stop the print queue |
---|
| 1179 | when the accounting subprocess didn't work. This will |
---|
| 1180 | be configurable in the near future. |
---|
| 1181 | |
---|
[1676] | 1182 | - 1.20alpha2 : |
---|
| 1183 | |
---|
[1678] | 1184 | - Now software accounting method reads accounter's |
---|
| 1185 | answer until a line with a single integer is |
---|
| 1186 | obtained or until all of its output has been read. |
---|
| 1187 | This should fix the problem some people have |
---|
| 1188 | when strange locale related messages are sent |
---|
| 1189 | when running subprocesses (Solaris only ?). |
---|
| 1190 | |
---|
[1676] | 1191 | - First version of ESC/P2 analyzer. Seems to work |
---|
| 1192 | ok at least with 'epson', 'epsonc', 'eps9mid' |
---|
| 1193 | and 'esp9high' ghostscript devices. Needs more |
---|
| 1194 | work to correctly analyze other devices. |
---|
| 1195 | |
---|
[1665] | 1196 | - 1.20alpha1 : |
---|
| 1197 | |
---|
[1675] | 1198 | - Fixed problem with number of copies in PCLXL parser. |
---|
| 1199 | |
---|
[1674] | 1200 | - Fixed problem with number of copies in PCL5 parser, |
---|
| 1201 | when number of copies was set outside of and before first |
---|
| 1202 | page. |
---|
| 1203 | |
---|
[1673] | 1204 | - Added workaround for number of copies directly set in |
---|
| 1205 | PostScript code. |
---|
| 1206 | |
---|
[1671] | 1207 | - Added german translation. |
---|
| 1208 | |
---|
[1665] | 1209 | - Fixed problem on first print for user group quota when |
---|
| 1210 | "enforcement: strict" is used. |
---|
| 1211 | |
---|
| 1212 | - Fixed interpolation problem in french translation. |
---|
| 1213 | |
---|
[1664] | 1214 | - 1.19 : |
---|
| 1215 | |
---|
| 1216 | - Updated existing translations. |
---|
| 1217 | |
---|
| 1218 | - Added final Thai and Greek translations. |
---|
| 1219 | |
---|
| 1220 | - Minor last minute bug fixes. |
---|
| 1221 | |
---|
[1629] | 1222 | - 1.19beta : |
---|
| 1223 | |
---|
| 1224 | - LPRng support for both software and hardware accounting seems |
---|
| 1225 | to be OK. |
---|
| 1226 | |
---|
| 1227 | - Translation files fixed because of fuzzy matching problem. |
---|
| 1228 | |
---|
[1639] | 1229 | - Fixed path to Swedish translation: 'sv' instead of 'se'. |
---|
[1633] | 1230 | |
---|
[1639] | 1231 | - Added first draft of Thai translation. |
---|
| 1232 | |
---|
| 1233 | - Fixed some minor bugs with Pychecker. |
---|
| 1234 | |
---|
[1622] | 1235 | - 1.19alpha35 : |
---|
| 1236 | |
---|
| 1237 | - Generic PDL analyzer now supports Binary PostScript documents |
---|
| 1238 | in addition to DSC compliant ones. |
---|
| 1239 | |
---|
[1611] | 1240 | - 1.19alpha34 : |
---|
| 1241 | |
---|
| 1242 | - LPRng support : software accounting seems to work fine, |
---|
| 1243 | but hardware accounting doesn't work yet. |
---|
| 1244 | |
---|
[1605] | 1245 | - 1.19alpha33 : |
---|
| 1246 | |
---|
| 1247 | - pykosd now accepts command line arguments. Enjoy ! |
---|
| 1248 | NB : due to a bug in xosd, you need xosd version 2.2.8 |
---|
| 1249 | or higher if you don't use the default C locale. |
---|
| 1250 | |
---|
[1600] | 1251 | - 1.19alpha32 : |
---|
| 1252 | |
---|
[1604] | 1253 | - Early (not working) version of the LPRng support rewrite. |
---|
[1600] | 1254 | |
---|
[1604] | 1255 | - Saner default configuration file. |
---|
| 1256 | |
---|
[1599] | 1257 | - 1.19alpha31 : |
---|
| 1258 | |
---|
| 1259 | - Fixed a double Python2.1 incompatibility with newer versions, |
---|
| 1260 | which prevented the PCL5 and the PCLXL parsers to work with |
---|
| 1261 | this older version of Python. |
---|
| 1262 | |
---|
[1592] | 1263 | - 1.19alpha30 : |
---|
| 1264 | |
---|
[1595] | 1265 | - Introduction of preliminary version of the pykosd command |
---|
| 1266 | |
---|
[1593] | 1267 | - Usernames, Groupnames and Printernames can now contain |
---|
| 1268 | ANY character, expected '/' and '@'. |
---|
| 1269 | |
---|
[1592] | 1270 | - Integrated most of the Debian work from Sergio |
---|
| 1271 | Gonz�z Gonz�z |
---|
| 1272 | |
---|
[1584] | 1273 | - 1.19alpha29 : |
---|
| 1274 | |
---|
[1591] | 1275 | - PCLXL parser should now correctly handle number of |
---|
| 1276 | copies set for each page. |
---|
| 1277 | |
---|
[1588] | 1278 | - Added testsuite for generic PDL analyzer. |
---|
| 1279 | |
---|
| 1280 | - Typo fixed in PCLXL parser. |
---|
| 1281 | |
---|
[1584] | 1282 | - Correctly dispatches error messages depending on the |
---|
| 1283 | situation : tools which can be run interactively will |
---|
| 1284 | ALWAYS output their logs to stderr, excepted for |
---|
| 1285 | their DEBUG messages, for which the "logger:" |
---|
| 1286 | directive as set in pykota.conf will be honored. |
---|
| 1287 | Tools which can't be run interactively will ALWAYS |
---|
| 1288 | honor the "logger:" directive as set in pykota.conf |
---|
| 1289 | |
---|
[1575] | 1290 | - 1.19alpha28 : |
---|
| 1291 | |
---|
[1582] | 1292 | - The description field for printers can now be set, |
---|
| 1293 | and is displayed in reports. |
---|
| 1294 | |
---|
| 1295 | - Fixed a small problem in SQL backend code. |
---|
| 1296 | |
---|
[1578] | 1297 | - Improved pkhint |
---|
| 1298 | |
---|
[1575] | 1299 | - First working PCL6 (aka PCLXL) parser ! |
---|
| 1300 | Doesn't handle copies yet. |
---|
| 1301 | |
---|
[1570] | 1302 | - 1.19alpha27 : |
---|
| 1303 | |
---|
[1573] | 1304 | - Additionnal 10% speed increase in PCL5 parser for GhostScript |
---|
| 1305 | generated files (untested yet with other PCL files). |
---|
| 1306 | |
---|
[1572] | 1307 | - Reintroduced the use of mmap in PCL5 parser : this speedups |
---|
| 1308 | PCL5 parsing by almost 4 times. |
---|
| 1309 | This 4x with the 3x below give us in fact a twelvefold increase |
---|
| 1310 | in performance for PCL5 parsing ! |
---|
| 1311 | |
---|
[1570] | 1312 | - The Python accelerator Psyco is now used if available |
---|
| 1313 | in the generic PDL parser : it speedups PCL5 parsing by |
---|
[1572] | 1314 | almost three times automagically. |
---|
[1570] | 1315 | |
---|
[1564] | 1316 | - 1.19alpha26 : |
---|
| 1317 | |
---|
| 1318 | - Fixed PCL5 parser according to the sources of rastertohp. |
---|
| 1319 | |
---|
[1566] | 1320 | - Fixed number of copies handling in PCL5 parser : the number |
---|
| 1321 | of copies could vary from page to page. |
---|
[1568] | 1322 | |
---|
| 1323 | - Added more debug information to PCLXL parser. |
---|
[1566] | 1324 | |
---|
[1556] | 1325 | - 1.19alpha25 : |
---|
| 1326 | |
---|
[1558] | 1327 | - Added new "description" field to printers in both |
---|
[1556] | 1328 | PostgreSQL and LDAP. No code to handle this yet. |
---|
| 1329 | |
---|
[1558] | 1330 | - Reversed the fix for power save mode in printers : |
---|
[1557] | 1331 | no paper or tray open would have caused people to |
---|
| 1332 | be undercharged. |
---|
| 1333 | |
---|
[1558] | 1334 | - Preliminary version of MySQL initialization script. |
---|
| 1335 | |
---|
[1552] | 1336 | - 1.19alpha24 : |
---|
| 1337 | |
---|
| 1338 | - Native PDF parsing code now works perfectly with |
---|
| 1339 | Python 2.1 and above, and is way faster than before. |
---|
| 1340 | GhostScript is not used anymore to convert PDF to PS, |
---|
| 1341 | because PDF is parsed directly. |
---|
| 1342 | |
---|
[1545] | 1343 | - 1.19alpha23 : |
---|
| 1344 | |
---|
[1549] | 1345 | - Fixed waitprinter.sh wrt PowerSave mode and some |
---|
| 1346 | printers. Thanks to Ryan Suarez. |
---|
| 1347 | |
---|
[1550] | 1348 | - Smart PDL analyzer now recognizes PDF too : two |
---|
| 1349 | PDF parsing methods are used : a native one which |
---|
| 1350 | is very fast but requires Python 2.3 or above, and |
---|
| 1351 | a slower one which uses Ghostscript. PyKota detects |
---|
| 1352 | automatically which method to use depending on your |
---|
| 1353 | version of Python. |
---|
[1547] | 1354 | |
---|
[1546] | 1355 | - All tracebacks now include PyKota's version number. |
---|
[1545] | 1356 | |
---|
[1542] | 1357 | - 1.19alpha22 : |
---|
| 1358 | |
---|
[1544] | 1359 | - Ensures that the file pointer for job's data is |
---|
| 1360 | reset to the start of the job's datas after the |
---|
| 1361 | job's size pre-computation phase. |
---|
| 1362 | |
---|
[1543] | 1363 | - Improved PostScript detection code for bad drivers |
---|
| 1364 | which don't correctly switch languages between PJL |
---|
| 1365 | and PS. |
---|
| 1366 | |
---|
[1542] | 1367 | - Even better debugging code. |
---|
| 1368 | |
---|
[1541] | 1369 | - 1.19alpha21 : |
---|
| 1370 | |
---|
[1542] | 1371 | - Additionnal check. |
---|
[1541] | 1372 | |
---|
[1536] | 1373 | - 1.19alpha20 : |
---|
| 1374 | |
---|
| 1375 | - More complete logging messages wrt accounters. |
---|
| 1376 | |
---|
[1539] | 1377 | - Now catches early failures occuring when the configuration |
---|
| 1378 | files are parsed. |
---|
| 1379 | |
---|
[1526] | 1380 | - 1.19alpha19 : |
---|
| 1381 | |
---|
| 1382 | - Fixed over-verbose exits when displaying help |
---|
| 1383 | or version. |
---|
[1527] | 1384 | |
---|
| 1385 | - Extended some PATH in the shell scripts |
---|
[1532] | 1386 | |
---|
| 1387 | - Deleting an user now also deletes his payments history. |
---|
| 1388 | |
---|
| 1389 | - Doesn't explicitely ignore SIGCHLD anymore. This seems to |
---|
| 1390 | cause problems. |
---|
[1500] | 1391 | |
---|
[1522] | 1392 | - 1.19alpha18 : |
---|
| 1393 | |
---|
| 1394 | - History of payments is now stored in the database, and |
---|
| 1395 | updated each time an user's balance is modified with |
---|
| 1396 | edpykota --balance. This history represents each time |
---|
| 1397 | the user was given some positive or negative credit, |
---|
| 1398 | but doesn't reflect price paid for jobs, which appear |
---|
| 1399 | in the jobs history instead. |
---|
| 1400 | |
---|
[1524] | 1401 | - Jobs history web reports now include the job's size in |
---|
| 1402 | bytes. Also columns were reordered to render the report |
---|
| 1403 | more easily readable. |
---|
| 1404 | |
---|
[1517] | 1405 | - 1.19alpha17 : |
---|
| 1406 | |
---|
| 1407 | - Mysterious bug (program exited unexpectedly without leaving |
---|
| 1408 | any log message) which occured once in a while when |
---|
| 1409 | cancelling jobs should be fixed now. |
---|
| 1410 | |
---|
| 1411 | - New 'crashrecipient' directive. Disabled by |
---|
| 1412 | default. See sample configuration file to see how |
---|
| 1413 | to activate it. It is suggested that you activate it. |
---|
| 1414 | |
---|
| 1415 | - New PYKOTAJOBSIZEBYTES environment variable exported, |
---|
[1519] | 1416 | which contains the job's size in bytes. Empty jobs |
---|
[1521] | 1417 | are now denied. This value is now stored in the job |
---|
| 1418 | history (but not yet displayed from the web interface) |
---|
[1517] | 1419 | |
---|
[1521] | 1420 | - Preliminary work on payments storage : the PostgreSQL |
---|
| 1421 | and LDAP schemas should be OK now, but no code is written |
---|
| 1422 | yet to support this functionnality. |
---|
| 1423 | |
---|
[1502] | 1424 | - 1.19alpha16 : |
---|
| 1425 | |
---|
[1510] | 1426 | - the newuser and newgroup LDAP specific directives now accept |
---|
| 1427 | a second parameter to attach(), "fail" or "warn". If no entry |
---|
| 1428 | is found to attach PyKota attributes to, and "fail" was used, |
---|
| 1429 | then action is aborted and program exits in error. If "warn" |
---|
| 1430 | is used, a new entry is created but a warning message is logged. |
---|
| 1431 | |
---|
[1502] | 1432 | - The job's originating hostname is now stored in the database, |
---|
| 1433 | and exported as PYKOTAJOBORIGINATINGHOSTNAME in the environment. |
---|
| 1434 | |
---|
[1500] | 1435 | - 1.19alpha15 : |
---|
| 1436 | |
---|
| 1437 | - The old pykota filter is now removed. This means that |
---|
| 1438 | currently PyKota doesn't support LPRng anymore, but |
---|
| 1439 | LPRng support will be re-added, improved, in the near future. |
---|
| 1440 | |
---|
[1495] | 1441 | - 1.19alpha14 : |
---|
| 1442 | |
---|
[1499] | 1443 | - PYKOTAPRECOMPUTEDJOBSIZE and PYKOTAPRECOMPUTEDJOBPRICE |
---|
| 1444 | are now exported as environment variables. |
---|
| 1445 | |
---|
[1498] | 1446 | - Heavy CPU usage is now completely fixed it seems, by |
---|
| 1447 | introducing some 0.01 second sleeping when nothing to do. |
---|
| 1448 | |
---|
[1497] | 1449 | - Pre-computation of the job's size is now only |
---|
| 1450 | done when enforcement is "STRICT", this saves |
---|
| 1451 | CPU for people who don't want to use this new |
---|
| 1452 | feature. |
---|
| 1453 | |
---|
[1495] | 1454 | - New 'enforcement' directive which accepts either |
---|
| 1455 | STRICT or LAXIST. See sample configuration file |
---|
| 1456 | for details. |
---|
| 1457 | |
---|
[1494] | 1458 | - 1.19alpha13 : |
---|
| 1459 | |
---|
| 1460 | - Get back to an old version of the polling loop which |
---|
| 1461 | worked fine, but non-optimally. Will be optimized |
---|
| 1462 | as time permits. |
---|
| 1463 | |
---|
[1492] | 1464 | - 1.19alpha12 : |
---|
| 1465 | |
---|
| 1466 | - Job's size is now precomputed unconditionnally using |
---|
| 1467 | the generic PDL analyzer. |
---|
| 1468 | NB : This value is not yet used to pre-allow/deny the |
---|
| 1469 | job. |
---|
| 1470 | |
---|
[1490] | 1471 | - 1.19alpha11 : |
---|
| 1472 | |
---|
| 1473 | - The pykota filter is now completely deprecated and |
---|
| 1474 | can't be used anymore. LPRng users MUST download |
---|
| 1475 | an older version of PyKota. CUPS users MUST use |
---|
| 1476 | cupspykota. Better support for LPRng will come |
---|
| 1477 | in the near future. |
---|
| 1478 | |
---|
[1483] | 1479 | - 1.19alpha10 : |
---|
| 1480 | |
---|
[1488] | 1481 | - pykotme now uses generic PDL Analyzer directly instead |
---|
| 1482 | of spawning a new process. |
---|
| 1483 | |
---|
[1487] | 1484 | - Improvements to generic PDL Analyzer. |
---|
| 1485 | |
---|
[1485] | 1486 | - 25% Speedup in PCL parser. Getting more of the Python version |
---|
| 1487 | will probably be difficult, since the completely table driven |
---|
| 1488 | parser I wrote is slower than the original algorithm. Then, |
---|
| 1489 | the original algorithm is still used for now. |
---|
| 1490 | Probable that more speed could be achieved using mmap, at the |
---|
| 1491 | expense of severe memory consumption. |
---|
| 1492 | |
---|
[1483] | 1493 | - configuration simplifications : the "accounter" directive's |
---|
| 1494 | 'hardware' arguments now accepts what was in the "requester" |
---|
| 1495 | directive as it's content. The "requester" directive is not |
---|
| 1496 | supported anymore. See sample configuration file for details. |
---|
| 1497 | |
---|
[1478] | 1498 | - 1.19alpha9 : |
---|
| 1499 | |
---|
[1482] | 1500 | - pkpgcounter is now just a wrapper around the PDLAnalyzer class |

---|
| 1873 | amount of money charged before the printer's prices were |
---|
| 1874 | modified, this addition solves the problem. |
---|
| 1875 | |

---|
| 2008 | |
---|
| 2009 | - The PostgreSQL database connection is now always closed before |
---|
| 2010 | exit. The LDAP database connection too, but it didn't suffer |
---|
| 2011 | from the problem anyway, AFAICT. |
---|
| 2012 | |
---|
[1111] | 2013 | - 1.14beta2 : |

| 2047 | user quotas if quota is already reached at creation |
---|
| 2048 | time. |

| 2221 | - They now take care of the number of copies |
---|
| 2222 | This may be unneeded though, if the postscript |
---|
| 2223 | file already does this, because this would |
---|
| 2224 | overcharge users (number of copies counted |
---|
| 2225 | two times). NEEDS MORE TESTING. |
---|
| 2226 | |
---|
| 2227 | - The sample configuration file now contains |
---|
| 2228 | an external accounting method example which should |
---|

---|
[989] | 2244 | - 1.06 : |
---|
| 2245 | |
---|
| 2246 | - Severe bug fixed : if you had a printer in |
---|
| 2247 | power saving state which couldn't answer immediately, |
---|
| 2248 | a bug was triggered. |
---|
| 2249 | It was caused by a bad copy/paste which |
---|
| 2250 | forgot to import a Python module at run time. |
---|
| 2251 | |
---|
[980] | 2252 | - 1.05 : |

---|
| 2258 | See the sample conf/pykota.conf.sample to |
---|
| 2259 | learn how to do. |
---|
| 2260 | |
---|
| 2261 | NB : Both 'external' and 'stupid' accounting methods |
---|
| 2262 | account a job size just before *this* job is |
---|
| 2263 | sent to the printer. |
---|
| 2264 | The original 'querying' method accounts a job |
---|
| 2265 | size just before *the next* job is sent to |
---|
| 2266 | the printer. |

| 2270 | - A 'stupid' and unreliable accounting method was |
---|
| 2271 | implemented to serve as an example on how to |
---|
| 2272 | do this sort of things. This method only counts |
---|
| 2273 | the 'showpage' statements in the input data. |
---|
| 2274 | See sample configuration file for details. |
---|
| 2275 | Pluggable accounting methods work, but I advise |
---|
| 2276 | you TO NOT USE THIS ONE WHICH IS JUST AN EXAMPLE. |
---|
| 2277 | It is not reliable enough to be used. |
---|
[978] | 2278 | Use the 'querying' accounting method instead. |
---|
[976] | 2279 | |
---|
[973] | 2280 | - 1.05alpha2 : |
---|
| 2281 | |
---|
| 2282 | - Pluggable accounting methods. |
---|
| 2283 | |
---|
[975] | 2284 | - Better error handling. |
---|
| 2285 | |
---|
[962] | 2286 | - 1.05alpha1 : |
---|
| 2287 | |
---|
[969] | 2288 | - SECURITY file added to help improve PyKota's security. |
---|
| 2289 | |
---|
[962] | 2290 | - Extracting the printer's internal page counter is now |
---|
| 2291 | tried several times, waiting several seconds between |
---|
| 2292 | two tries. This lets the time to warm up for some printers |
---|
| 2293 | which don't answer when they are sleeping (my Apple |
---|
| 2294 | LaserWriter 16/600 PS is in this case, maybe others too) |
---|
| 2295 | |
---|
[970] | 2296 | - Small display bug fixed in repykota |
---|
| 2297 | |
---|
[960] | 2298 | - 1.04 : |
---|
[956] | 2299 | |
---|
| 2300 | - Default print policy for users/groups unknown from |
---|
| 2301 | the print quota system is now DENY instead of ALLOW, |
---|
| 2302 | since ALLOW can generate inaccurate results |
---|
| 2303 | (incorrect job sizes charged to the wrong persons) |
---|
| 2304 | |
---|
[954] | 2305 | - LPRng support works ! |
---|
| 2306 | |
---|
[953] | 2307 | - A bug was introduced some time ago wrt printers' default |
---|
| 2308 | policy for unknown users. It is now corrected. |
---|
| 2309 | |
---|
[950] | 2310 | - repykota now displays prices per job and per page for each |
---|
| 2311 | printer, if they are defined. |
---|
| 2312 | |
---|
[947] | 2313 | - Minor display bug fixed in repykota. |
---|
| 2314 | |
---|
| 2315 | - Problem when running repykota with an empty database was fixed. |
---|
| 2316 | |
---|
[942] | 2317 | - 1.03 : |
---|
| 2318 | |
---|
| 2319 | - Upgrade script included for earlier versions. |
---|
| 2320 | Please look inside the initscripts subdirectory. |
---|
[965] | 2321 | THE DATABASE SCHEMA HAS CHANGED, PLEASE UPGRADE. |
---|
[942] | 2322 | |
---|
[932] | 2323 | - repykota now reports account balances too. |
---|
[929] | 2324 | |
---|
[932] | 2325 | - PyKota now has a nice logo, see the logos |
---|
| 2326 | subdirectory. |
---|
| 2327 | |
---|
[936] | 2328 | - Manual pages were finally updated. |
---|
| 2329 | |
---|
[927] | 2330 | - Group quotas seem to work now ! |
---|
| 2331 | |
---|
[910] | 2332 | - The new database schema allows to keep an history of all |
---|
| 2333 | jobs as well as charge users per page and/or per job, |
---|
| 2334 | and track users' account balance. |
---|
| 2335 | |
---|
[917] | 2336 | - edpykota now accepts much more command line options to |
---|
| 2337 | use the new functionnalities. See edpykota --help for |
---|
| 2338 | details. |
---|
| 2339 | |
---|
[885] | 2340 | - The installation script now allows to install the sample |
---|
| 2341 | configuration file during first installation. |
---|
[892] | 2342 | |
---|
| 2343 | - More group quota code works, but still not finished. |
---|
[885] | 2344 | |
---|
[894] | 2345 | - The CGI script displays a link to PyKota's website. |
---|
| 2346 | |
---|
[899] | 2347 | - The job history is now kept, this will allow per-period |
---|
| 2348 | reports in the future. |
---|
[900] | 2349 | |
---|
| 2350 | - After having modified the quota for an user with edpykota, |
---|
| 2351 | a quota check is done to eventually warn the user/admin about |
---|
| 2352 | a quota which is too low to print. |
---|
| 2353 | |
---|
[901] | 2354 | - A workaround is provided for HP Printers : their internal |
---|
| 2355 | page counter is only saved to NVRAM in a 10 increment, so |
---|
| 2356 | if you switch them off and then on, the reported page counter |
---|
| 2357 | may be lower than the real number of pages printed. |
---|
| 2358 | See http://web.mit.edu/source/third/lprng/doc/LPRng-HOWTO-15.html |
---|
[909] | 2359 | We unconditionnally set the last job's page count to |
---|
| 2360 | abs(int((10 - abs(lastcounter(snmp) - lastcounter(storage)) / 2)) |
---|
| 2361 | in this case. |
---|
[908] | 2362 | For a more accurate accounting, never switch your HP printers |
---|
| 2363 | off. |
---|
[901] | 2364 | |
---|
| 2365 | - A fix is provided for printers which only have a volatile |
---|
| 2366 | page counter (reset to 0 every time you switch the printer on) |
---|
[908] | 2367 | This should allow PyKota to work reasonably fine with HP Laserjet |
---|
| 2368 | 4L/5L/6L, not perfect, but better than nothing. |
---|
[901] | 2369 | See http://web.mit.edu/source/third/lprng/doc/LPRng-HOWTO-15.html |
---|
[908] | 2370 | For a more accurate accounting, never switch your HP printers |
---|
[925] | 2371 | off. This is untested, please report any problem. |
---|
[901] | 2372 | |
---|
[907] | 2373 | - A bug was fixed when edpykota --add was used with users who already |
---|
| 2374 | had a quota on the specified printer. |
---|
| 2375 | |
---|
[913] | 2376 | - A small display bug in repykota was introduced in preliminary |
---|
| 2377 | 1.03 versions, and fixed later on. |

---|
| 2382 | file for details. |
---|
[925] | 2383 | |
---|
| 2384 | - Users and group printing can now be controlled (limited) either by |
---|
| 2385 | print quota or by account balance. |
---|
[919] | 2386 | |
---|
[877] | 2387 | - 1.02 : |
---|
[859] | 2388 | |
---|
[871] | 2389 | - The installation script now checks for software availability |
---|
| 2390 | and in case a software is missing asks the user if he |
---|
| 2391 | wants to continue with the installation or abort it. |
---|
| 2392 | |
---|
[872] | 2393 | - The configuration file pykota.conf is now expected to be |
---|
| 2394 | found in /etc instead of in /etc/cups |
---|
| 2395 | The installation script prompts the user to see if he |
---|
| 2396 | wants to move an old configuration file to the new location |
---|
| 2397 | if needed. |
---|
| 2398 | |
---|
[859] | 2399 | - Improved documentation. |
---|
| 2400 | |
---|
| 2401 | - You can now set the tcp/ip port on which the Quota Storage |
---|
| 2402 | Server is listening, see sample configuration file for details. |
---|
| 2403 | |

---|
[859] | 2405 | |
---|
[875] | 2406 | - Upgrade script for pre 1.01 PostgreSQL database schema is now |
---|
| 2407 | included as well. |
---|
| 2408 | |
---|
[852] | 2409 | - 1.01 : |
---|
| 2410 | |
---|
| 2411 | - The configuration file now accepts an option |
---|
| 2412 | to choose the recipient(s) of the email messages : |
---|
| 2413 | |
---|
| 2414 | - DevNull means no one will receive them. |
---|
| 2415 | - User means only the user will receive them. |
---|
| 2416 | - Admin means only the admin will receive them. |
---|
| 2417 | - Both means the User and the Admin will receive them. |
---|
| 2418 | |
---|
[853] | 2419 | - The configuration file now uses hard-coded default values |
---|
| 2420 | when an option is not set. See sample configuration file |
---|
| 2421 | for details. |
---|
| 2422 | |
---|
[852] | 2423 | - Manual pages are included since 1.00, but I forgot to |
---|
| 2424 | add this information to this file. |

---|
| 2427 | softened and are now fully GPL compatible : |

---|
[846] | 2431 | - 1.00 : |
---|
| 2432 | |
---|
| 2433 | - edpykota now accepts a --noquota option. This |
---|
| 2434 | disable quota checking while still doing page |
---|
| 2435 | accounting. This is really useful for people |
---|
| 2436 | who don't want to limit their users but want |
---|
| 2437 | to know how much pages they print. |
---|
| 2438 | |
---|
| 2439 | - Some untested scripts were added to retrieve |
---|
| 2440 | the life time page counter of non-SNMP printers. |
---|
| 2441 | |
---|
| 2442 | - Every directory now has a specific README file. |

---|
| 2450 | - When an user wasn't allowed to print, the quota for |
---|
[835] | 2451 | the previous user wasn't updated. This is now fixed. |
---|
[833] | 2452 | |
---|
[827] | 2453 | - 0.98 : |
---|
| 2454 | |

---|
| 2456 | |
---|

---|
| 2458 | |
---|

---|
| 2460 | |
---|
| 2461 | - edpykota accepts wildcards on its command line for users/groups too |
---|
| 2462 | if the --add option is not set, e.g. : |
---|
| 2463 | |
---|
| 2464 | $ edpykota --printer lp --softlimit 50 --hardlimit 100 "jer*" |
---|
| 2465 | |
---|
[821] | 2466 | - If no user name is passed at all, then a default wildcard of "*" |
---|
[819] | 2467 | which means apply the command on ALL users for this printer is used. |
---|
| 2468 | |
---|
| 2469 | - Small bug fixes. |
---|
| 2470 | |
---|
[803] | 2471 | - 0.96 : |

| 2472 | |
---|
[808] | 2473 | - Options requester, policy, admin, adminmail and gracedelay can now |
---|
[807] | 2474 | be set either globally or per printer. The printer option has |
---|
| 2475 | priority if both are defined. |
---|
[803] | 2476 | |
---|
[807] | 2477 | - More powerful configuration parser. |
---|
| 2478 | |
---|
| 2479 | - If all options are defined globally, there's no need to |
---|
| 2480 | define a section for each printer in the configuration |
---|
| 2481 | file anymore. Just define a [global] section and it's ok. |
---|
[803] | 2482 | |
