Changed license of madduck's python plugins from GPL-2 to BSD-2-clause. Apparently the rst library is changing to a GPL-2 incompatable license. "madduck: joeyh: so yes, do as you think is right."
Use env hack in python scripts.
scan hook works, remove NotImplemented exception Signed-off-by: martin f. krafft <madduck@madduck.net>
Do not output xml-rpc debugging Signed-off-by: martin f. krafft <madduck@madduck.net>
Flesh out pythondemo This implements most hooks with stupid demo code, and also still has some TODO items. Signed-off-by: martin f. krafft <madduck@madduck.net>
Make proxy object available to hook functions Hook functions now get the proxy object as first argument to be able to use RPC via the proxy. Signed-off-by: martin f. krafft <madduck@madduck.net>
Allow external plugins to return no value Instead of using the XML-RPC v2 extension <nil/>, which Perl's XML::RPC::Parser does not (yet) support (Joey's patch is pending), we agreed on a sentinel: {'null':''}, that is, a hash with a single key "null" pointing to the empty string. The Python proxy automatically converts None appropriately and raises an exception if a hook function should, by weird coincidence, attempt to return {'null':''}.
