Release 1.5.2019

Since this release, WAW requires Python 3.5 and it is no longer compatible with Python 2. Last WAW version which supports python 2.7 is the 1.2 one.

New Features

• You can now delete, upload and test workspace by specifying its name or regular expression
• It is possible to replace some values using workspace_addjson script
• There is now an option to set the log level in the CLI
• -v flag now just print more INFO messages (not DEBUG or ERROR)
• Documentation and tests for actions in the dialog were added

Cloud Functions

• While using cloud functions, it is now possible to use an apikey
• Script functions_delete_package for deleting cf package was added
• Script functions_deploy is now able to deploy also CF sequences

Testing

• If you set exception_if_fail parameter of script evaluate_tests to true, it throws exception, when there are any failed tests detected while evaluating.
• We are running tests for Python 3 only from now on

Release 1.4.2019

This is the last WAW version which supports python 2.7.

New Features

• Support for cloud functions was added for deployment and testing
• WAW now supports pattern entities and contextual entities (csv to json direction only)
• We employ logging module for logging
• Using workspace_addjson.py script you are now able to add custom json structures to specified location in the workspace json
• It is now possible to deploy workspace by its name (by setting workspace_name_unique to true)
• Dialog testing script now outputs junit.xml file with test results
• requirements.txt and requirements_dev.txt were added to simplify installation process
• Sample configuration file was split into three: common.cfg (common project settings), private.cfg (filled-in template contains credentials, not to be pushed) and builg.cfg (settings specific for concrete build environment, usually not to be pushed). These are just proposal split, not mandatory.

WAW xml format

• Following node tags were added into WAW xml format disabled, metadata, type, digress_in, digress_out and digress_out_slots tags
• event_name tag was added for handlers
• result_variable tag was added for actions
• Nodes have new attribute title
• In goto structure, there is a new tag behavior defaulting to jump_to
• It is possible to add scope attribute to most of the nodes. Scope can be used for creating customized dialogs from a default one.
• Output structure was updated accordingly to WA changes to contain generic tag

T2Cformat

• T2C format now supports folders in a form of an extra channel
• Options (buttons) in T2C are translated to a format which is understood by clientv2 (it is not yet compliant with response types)
• Foldables are supported by T2C. Foldables are texts present in a short and a long form. If client supports their rendering (clentv2 does), user can switch between these two forms by clicking on the text.

Bug fixes

• It is now possible to load intents from multiple folders
• Duplicated entities and empty synonyms are handled correctly without raising an error
• WAW now exports boolean type values into json as booleans, not as strings
• Conversion of null values, empty values and more complicated structures from json to xml and back again was fixed to result in the json same as original
• T2C was fixed to create nodes correctly (#41)
• One can now write HTML in T2C or escaped html to WAW xml and it gets rendered properly by the client
• Reverse order of imported nodes was fixed and nodes are imported to a specified position, not at the end of a node list
• String formatting issues were fixed

WAW CI

• Nightly builds are set up for devel and master branches
• Fork PR builds are enabled
• Artifactory cleanup takes place on each run
• CI scripts were rewritten to pytest
• Unit testing is enabled for scripts and will be part of all future features
• flake8 tests are now part of the CI process, their results are just informative
• Python 3.6 was added to CI in allow_failures mode
• Check for back and forth conversion (json2xml + xml2json) was added to CI

Internal

• Representation of T2C data now employs objective programming
• getFilesAtPath function now supports pattern matching
• Code was modernized to get ready for Python 3 and an absolute_import was added

Following documentation was added

• Intents and entities format documentation
• Documentation for localization
• Documentation for logging
