3 * utils/csa-filter.rb: Allow csa-filter.rb to filter games by a winner or loser
4 New command lines, --winner <player> or --loser <player>, are now
5 supported to supply extra filtering conditions. Note that each
6 filter is combined as AND condition.
8 - % ./csa-filter.rb ~/Downloads/20160314 --white gpsfish_xeon --loser gpsfish_xeon
9 - % ./csa-filter.rb ~/Downloads/20160314 --white gpsfish_xeon --winner gpsfish_xeon

14 * Update Revision to 20161211.
17 2016-12-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
19 * Allow util/statistics.rb to set a filtering condition of found files
20 Regarding util/statistics.rb, add a new command line option,
21 --filter regexp, to process files that are matched with a regexp.
22 It would make it easier to calculate statistics of certain games.
25 2016-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
27 * [shogi-server] Allow to customize maximum lenght of a login indentifier
29 - The current maximum length of a login identifier is 32. Some
30 private uses require longer player names to distinguish each other
31 by specifying randomly generated tokens. It would of help to add a
32 new command line option --max-identifier to overwrite the default
34 * Build a Docker image for Shogi-server
36 - Build a Docker image
38 - Running a local shogi-server would look like
39 % docker pull shogiserver/shogiserver
40 % docker run -p 4081:4081 -v `pwd`/logs:/logs shogiserver/shogiserver
41 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/game.rb:
42 - Remove a debug message
44 2016-04-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
47 - Support Fischer time control.
48 * [shogi-server] Bump up the revision to 20160409.
50 2016-04-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
52 * [shogi-server] Support Fischer Time Control
54 - Fischer time control means that:
55 Before a player has made their move, a specified time increment is
56 added to their clock. Time can be accumulated, so if the player
57 moves within the delay period, their remaining time actually
59 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_clock)
60 - New syntax of game names:
61 An 'F' suffix denotes a Fisher time in seconds. For example,
62 "floodgate-600-10F" specifies
64 + Total allotted time is 600 seconds for each player
65 + 10-second increment before a player's move in a Fischer way
66 - The server now proposes game conditions upon a game start with
67 - "Protocol_Version 1.2"
68 - "Increment:<n>" for Fischer Time Control
69 - Kifu files can include the following comment for Fischer Time
72 * [shogi-server] Fix some lint warnings.
74 2015-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
76 * [shogi-server] Enhance capability of Floodgate configuration file
77 - New parameter: Max_Moves, defined in the CSA protocol
79 - New parameter: Least_Time_Per_Move, defined in the CSA protocol
80 ex. set Least_Time_Per_Move 0
81 - Proposed messages distributed to each player upon starting a new
82 game will include Max_Moves as well as Least_Time_Per_Move.
83 - CSA files produced by the server will include settings of
84 Max_Moves and Least_Time_Per_Move in comment lines as follows:
86 'Least_Time_Per_Move:0
87 - The official Shogi-server on wdoor.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp will
88 be running with different parameters, depending on game names.
89 a) Max_Moves will be 256 for floodgate-600-10 games;
91 b) Least_Time_Per_Move will be 0 for floodgate-600-10 games;
94 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/pairing.rb:
95 - LeastDiff attempts more trials, depending of a number of players
96 to be matched, top achieve more optimized matching combinations.
98 2015-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
100 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/time_clock.rb:
101 - A time consumed could be -1.
102 * The start time of a move is captured after sending a move to a
103 player of the next turn at the end of the giant lock
104 * The end time of the move is captured at the exact time when the
105 server receives it before the giant lock
106 Therefore, end_time < start_time is possible when a player returns a
108 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for reporting this issue.
111 2015-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
113 * util/statistics.rb:
114 - Updated to investigate floodgate-600-10 games.
115 Consult the result at
116 http://www.sgtpepper.net/hyspro/diary/20150214.html.
117 - Added a companion R script: histogram.R
119 2015-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
122 - shogi_server/login.rb: When players are logged in, log their
123 player_id if they have it.
125 2015-01-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
128 - Getting an absolute path of this file was wrong if it was a
129 symbolic link. This issue has been addressed.
131 - Links to details pages for players now use a relative path so
132 that it works on a testing site.
134 2015-01-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
137 - shogi-server, shogi_server/{command,game_result,player}.rb:
138 The change at 2014-10-13 was not worked as expected. Reworked.
139 A player, attempting to login with the current live player
140 stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
143 2015-01-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
146 - shogi_server.rb: Follow an API change in a upstream class:
147 LogDevice.previous_period_end
149 2014-12-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
152 - When a non-rated player participates in Floodgate, the following exception
153 was thrown and a Floodgate game would not start:
154 undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
155 ["/home/shogi-server/www/x/shogi_server/pairing.rb:499:in `block
156 in calculate_diff_with_penalty'"
157 This issue has been resolved. Only players who have player ID
158 (i.e. those who log in with valid password) are now allowed to
159 participate in Floodgate as the spec web page
160 [http://shogi-server.sourceforge.jp/rating.html] describes.
162 2014-12-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
165 - Addressed Ruby incompatibility on ShogiServer::Usi::alphabetToDan.
166 It (and usiToCsa.rb) did not work with Ruby 1.9.3. This issue
168 Thanks to Hiraoka-san for debugging.
170 2014-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
172 * utils/eval_graph.rb:
173 - Gnuplot 4.6.6 drew evaluation-value lines with a dashed style.
174 This issue has now been addressed so that solid lines are used.
176 2014-11-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
181 2014-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
184 - Ruby 2.0.0 or later is recommended to use with shogi-server
185 since Ruby 1.8 reached its End-of-Life on the end of July, 2014.
187 - Addressed a warning of duplicated range in a regular expression.
189 2014-10-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
192 - A player, attempting to login with the current live player
193 stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
195 - Kifu record files now includes rating scores of players at the
196 time when games start. Previously, for rating games, a record
197 file includes player IDs of both players with a line starting with
198 "'rating". Now it also shows rating scores for players who have
199 valid scores. The formats for black and white players are as
201 'black_rate:<player_id>:<score>
202 'white_rate:<player_id>:<score>
204 'rating:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790
205 'black_rate:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2763.0
206 'white_rate:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2345.0
208 2014-10-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
211 - New feature: max moves
212 - New command line option: --max-moves n
213 When a game with the n-th move played does not end, make the
214 game a draw (default 256 in compliance with CSA Protocol V1.2
215 or later). Setting 0 disables this feature for
216 CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
217 - Players will receive a new message, "#MAX_MOVES", upon an end
221 - A new log summary type, "max_moves", has been assigned for games
222 drawing with max moves.
223 'summary:max_moves:name_sente draw:name_gote draw
224 - Least time per move:
225 - New command line option: --least-time-per-move n
226 This option specifies a least time in second per move, which
227 is 0 second by default, meaning that a decimal
228 fraction of time for a move will be truncated in compliance
229 with CSA Protocol V1.2 or later.
230 Set 1 for CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
232 2014-07-19 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
235 - Added a new option, --abnormal-threshold n:
236 Games that end with the 'abnormal' status are counted in
237 win/lost games for the rating calculation if a game plays more
238 than n plies. Otherwise (or if n is zero), abnormal games are
239 counted out of rating games.
241 2014-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
244 - Released: Revision "20140107"
246 2013-12-29 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
249 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
250 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
252 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
255 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
258 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
261 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
262 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
263 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
264 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
265 already in use - bind(2)".
267 - Released: Revision "20131215"
269 2013-12-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
272 - Added a new program, bin/usiToCsa.rb, which is a bridge for a
273 USI engine to connect to the Shogi-server.
274 - bin/usiToCsa is a sample wrapper script.
276 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
279 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
280 - Added a log message.
282 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
285 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
286 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
287 - Changed log messages and levels.
289 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
292 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
293 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
294 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
295 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
296 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
297 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
299 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
302 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
303 which filters out unrated players.
304 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
305 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
306 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
307 used in a specific Floodgate game.
308 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
309 - Implemented conversion of move representation between CSA format
312 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
315 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
316 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
318 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
319 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
320 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
321 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
322 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
323 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
324 already in use - bind(2)".
326 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
327 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
328 - Removed files that are no longer used.
330 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
333 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
334 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
335 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
336 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
338 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
341 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
344 - Flush after each output line.
345 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
347 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
350 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
351 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
352 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
354 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
357 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
358 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
359 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
360 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
361 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
362 miniute is regarded as zero.
363 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
364 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
366 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
369 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
370 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
371 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
373 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
375 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
378 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
379 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
380 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
381 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
382 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
383 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
385 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
388 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
389 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
390 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
391 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
392 where the previous position of the last one.
393 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
394 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
395 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
396 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
397 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
398 previous stable position.
399 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

452 This issue has been fixed.
454 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
457 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
458 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
459 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).

487 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
488 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
490 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
493 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
494 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
495 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
496 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
498 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
501 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
502 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
503 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
504 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
505 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
507 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
508 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
509 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
511 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
514 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
515 The Buoy behavior is changed.
516 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
517 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
519 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
520 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
522 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
525 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
526 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
527 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
529 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
532 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
533 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
534 earlier than system time.
535 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
536 now returns an instance correctly.
537 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
538 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
539 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
540 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
542 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
545 - shogi_server/command.rb:
546 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
547 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
548 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
550 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
551 ShogiServer::Logger class.
552 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
553 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
554 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
556 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
558 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
561 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
562 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
563 This issue has been fixed.
565 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
568 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
569 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move

575 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
577 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
578 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
579 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
582 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
585 - A new command line option:
586 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
587 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
590 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
591 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
592 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
594 - Floodgate time configuration file:
595 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
596 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
597 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
598 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
601 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
602 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
603 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
604 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
605 default time settings.

625 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
626 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
628 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
631 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
632 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
634 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
637 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
638 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
639 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
640 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
641 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
643 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
646 - shogi_server/player.rb:
647 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
650 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
653 - shogi_server/command.rb:
654 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
655 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
656 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
658 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
661 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
662 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
663 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
664 impatiently sending a move twice.
666 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
669 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
670 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
671 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
674 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
677 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
678 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
679 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
680 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
681 "*" is not available.
691 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
694 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
695 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
696 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
697 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
698 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
699 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
700 appended to the record file.
701 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
702 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
704 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
706 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
708 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
711 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
712 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
714 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
717 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
718 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
719 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
720 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
723 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
726 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
728 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
729 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
730 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
731 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
732 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
733 previous class: StartGame.
734 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
735 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
737 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
740 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
742 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
745 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
746 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
747 ignored for the calculation.
749 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
752 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
753 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
754 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
755 Instruction to use the game result list file:
756 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
758 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
759 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
760 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
761 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
763 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
765 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
768 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
769 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
770 requires two steps as follows:
771 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
772 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
774 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
777 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
780 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
781 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
782 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
783 players can play a new game with the game name.
785 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
787 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
788 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
789 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
791 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
792 specific position that you want to start with.
793 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
794 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
795 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
796 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
797 game is removed automatically by the server.
799 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
800 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
801 allowed to delete it.
802 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
803 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
804 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
805 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
809 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
812 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
814 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
817 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
818 issue has been fixed.
821 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
824 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
825 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
826 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
829 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
832 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
833 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
834 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
835 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
838 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
841 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
842 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
845 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
847 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
848 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
851 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
854 - Improved performance.
856 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
859 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
860 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
861 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
863 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
865 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
866 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
868 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
871 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
872 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
873 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
874 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
876 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
879 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
880 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
882 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
885 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
886 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
888 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
889 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
890 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
891 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
892 time out. (Closes: #14469)
894 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
897 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
898 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
899 wdoor should be written by using this option.
901 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
904 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
907 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
908 incomplete records are skipped.
909 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
910 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
911 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
912 names in command line arguments.
914 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
917 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
920 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
921 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
923 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
926 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
929 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
931 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
934 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
935 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
936 records are taken care of when games are matched.
938 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
940 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
941 - Display time control graphs as well.
942 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
945 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
948 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
949 - Daemon mode is available.
950 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
951 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
952 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
954 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
957 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
958 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
960 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
963 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
964 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
965 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
966 of the game. (Closes #12821)
967 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
968 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
969 it might have prevented other players from processing until
970 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
972 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
975 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
976 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
979 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
982 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
984 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
987 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
988 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
990 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
993 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
994 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
995 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
996 sending a HUP signal to the server.
997 - The server log will be rotated daily.
999 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1002 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
1003 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
1004 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
1005 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
1006 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
1008 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1011 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
1013 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1016 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
1017 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
1019 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
1020 method error in Pairing.
1022 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1025 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
1026 This bug has been fixed.
1027 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
1028 This issue has been fixed.
1030 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1033 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
1034 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
1035 This change will help users browse a file list.
1037 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1040 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
1043 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1046 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
1047 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
1050 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1053 - The half-life period is now configurable.
1054 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
1056 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1059 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
1061 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1064 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
1065 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
1067 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1070 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
1073 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1076 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
1077 issue has been fixed.
1078 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
1079 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
1080 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
1081 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
1084 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1087 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
1088 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
1089 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
1090 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
1092 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1094 * [util/players-graph.rb]
1095 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
1097 - Small PNG gets smaller.
1099 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1102 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
1103 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
1105 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1108 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
1109 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
1110 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
1112 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1115 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
1116 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
1117 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
1120 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1122 * [util/players-graph.rb]
1123 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
1125 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1128 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
1129 server. This issue has been fixed.
1131 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1134 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
1135 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
1136 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
1137 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
1140 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1143 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
1144 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
1145 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
1147 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
1148 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
1149 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
1151 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
1152 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
1154 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1157 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
1158 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
1160 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1163 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
1164 recently are not listed.
1166 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
1168 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1170 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
1171 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
1173 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
1175 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1177 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
1178 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
1179 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
1180 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
1181 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
1182 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
1183 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
1184 will be removed when the server shuts down.
1186 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1189 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
1190 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
1191 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
1192 day. This issue has been fixed.
1194 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1197 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
1198 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
1199 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
1201 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1204 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
1205 It may not work with lower verions.
1207 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1210 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
1211 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
1212 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
1214 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1217 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
1218 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
1219 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.

1231 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
