3 * [shogi-server] Improve timed-up detection.
4 Previously, the server checked if a game got timed up when a player
5 in turn sent no message for a certain amount of time mainly defined
6 by Default_Timeout. If the player sent keep alive frequently, the
7 timed-up detection could be quite delayed.
8 This issue has been addressed. The server now checks timed up with
9 keep alive received as well. Players are notified with TIME_UP not
10 long before games gets timed up.
12 2018-08-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
14 * [shogi-server] Support a graceful shutdown.
15 A file named "STOP" in the base directory prevents the server from
16 starting new games including Floodgate matches.
18 * [shogi-server] Create a directory for a PID file.
19 To put a PID file such as /var/run/shogi-server/shogi-server.pid, if
20 directories do not exist, they will be created recursively.
23 2018-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
25 * [shogi-server] Give more penalty on assigning matches with same
29 2017-09-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
31 * [shogi-server] Write game results in categorical files
32 The shogi-server now writes down game results in the following
33 files, depending on a game class:
35 - 00LIST.floodgate: floodgate games
36 - 00LIST.others: non-floodgate games
39 2017-09-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
41 * [shogi-server] Write more game results in record files
42 As the CSA Record Format standard states, "%TIME_UP" and
43 "%SENNICHITE" are now recorded in CSA files when a game ends for
44 timed up or sennichite respectively.
46 * [shogi-server, mk_game_results, mk_rate] Change schema to add number of
47 moves The format of an internal game result summary file, '00LIST',
48 has been changed to add number of moves of a game, which would be of
49 help for a script calculating rating scores.
51 * Update Revision to 20170902
53 2017-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
55 * utils/csa-filter.rb: Allow csa-filter.rb to filter games by a winner or loser
56 New command lines, --winner <player> or --loser <player>, are now
57 supported to supply extra filtering conditions. Note that each
58 filter is combined as AND condition.
60 - % ./csa-filter.rb ~/Downloads/20160314 --white gpsfish_xeon --loser gpsfish_xeon
61 - % ./csa-filter.rb ~/Downloads/20160314 --white gpsfish_xeon --winner gpsfish_xeon
64 2016-12-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
66 * Update Revision to 20161211.
69 2016-12-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
71 * Allow util/statistics.rb to set a filtering condition of found files
72 Regarding util/statistics.rb, add a new command line option,
73 --filter regexp, to process files that are matched with a regexp.
74 It would make it easier to calculate statistics of certain games.
77 2016-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
79 * [shogi-server] Allow to customize maximum lenght of a login indentifier
81 - The current maximum length of a login identifier is 32. Some
82 private uses require longer player names to distinguish each other
83 by specifying randomly generated tokens. It would of help to add a
84 new command line option --max-identifier to overwrite the default
86 * Build a Docker image for Shogi-server
88 - Build a Docker image
90 - Running a local shogi-server would look like
91 % docker pull shogiserver/shogiserver
92 % docker run -p 4081:4081 -v `pwd`/logs:/logs shogiserver/shogiserver
93 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/game.rb:
94 - Remove a debug message
96 2016-04-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
99 - Support Fischer time control.
100 * [shogi-server] Bump up the revision to 20160409.
102 2016-04-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
104 * [shogi-server] Support Fischer Time Control
106 - Fischer time control means that:
107 Before a player has made their move, a specified time increment is
108 added to their clock. Time can be accumulated, so if the player
109 moves within the delay period, their remaining time actually
111 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_clock)
112 - New syntax of game names:
113 An 'F' suffix denotes a Fisher time in seconds. For example,
114 "floodgate-600-10F" specifies
116 + Total allotted time is 600 seconds for each player
117 + 10-second increment before a player's move in a Fischer way
118 - The server now proposes game conditions upon a game start with
119 - "Protocol_Version 1.2"
120 - "Increment:<n>" for Fischer Time Control
121 - Kifu files can include the following comment for Fischer Time
124 * [shogi-server] Fix some lint warnings.
126 2015-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
128 * [shogi-server] Enhance capability of Floodgate configuration file
129 - New parameter: Max_Moves, defined in the CSA protocol
130 ex. set Max_Moves 256
131 - New parameter: Least_Time_Per_Move, defined in the CSA protocol
132 ex. set Least_Time_Per_Move 0
133 - Proposed messages distributed to each player upon starting a new
134 game will include Max_Moves as well as Least_Time_Per_Move.
135 - CSA files produced by the server will include settings of
136 Max_Moves and Least_Time_Per_Move in comment lines as follows:
138 'Least_Time_Per_Move:0
139 - The official Shogi-server on wdoor.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp will
140 be running with different parameters, depending on game names.
141 a) Max_Moves will be 256 for floodgate-600-10 games;
143 b) Least_Time_Per_Move will be 0 for floodgate-600-10 games;
146 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/pairing.rb:
147 - LeastDiff attempts more trials, depending of a number of players
148 to be matched, top achieve more optimized matching combinations.
150 2015-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
152 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/time_clock.rb:
153 - A time consumed could be -1.
154 * The start time of a move is captured after sending a move to a
155 player of the next turn at the end of the giant lock
156 * The end time of the move is captured at the exact time when the
157 server receives it before the giant lock
158 Therefore, end_time < start_time is possible when a player returns a
160 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for reporting this issue.
163 2015-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
165 * util/statistics.rb:
166 - Updated to investigate floodgate-600-10 games.
167 Consult the result at
168 http://www.sgtpepper.net/hyspro/diary/20150214.html.
169 - Added a companion R script: histogram.R
171 2015-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
174 - shogi_server/login.rb: When players are logged in, log their
175 player_id if they have it.
177 2015-01-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
180 - Getting an absolute path of this file was wrong if it was a
181 symbolic link. This issue has been addressed.
183 - Links to details pages for players now use a relative path so
184 that it works on a testing site.
186 2015-01-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
189 - shogi-server, shogi_server/{command,game_result,player}.rb:
190 The change at 2014-10-13 was not worked as expected. Reworked.
191 A player, attempting to login with the current live player
192 stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
195 2015-01-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
198 - shogi_server.rb: Follow an API change in a upstream class:
199 LogDevice.previous_period_end
201 2014-12-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
204 - When a non-rated player participates in Floodgate, the following exception
205 was thrown and a Floodgate game would not start:
206 undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
207 ["/home/shogi-server/www/x/shogi_server/pairing.rb:499:in `block
208 in calculate_diff_with_penalty'"
209 This issue has been resolved. Only players who have player ID
210 (i.e. those who log in with valid password) are now allowed to
211 participate in Floodgate as the spec web page
212 [http://shogi-server.sourceforge.jp/rating.html] describes.
214 2014-12-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
217 - Addressed Ruby incompatibility on ShogiServer::Usi::alphabetToDan.
218 It (and usiToCsa.rb) did not work with Ruby 1.9.3. This issue
220 Thanks to Hiraoka-san for debugging.
222 2014-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
224 * utils/eval_graph.rb:
225 - Gnuplot 4.6.6 drew evaluation-value lines with a dashed style.
226 This issue has now been addressed so that solid lines are used.
228 2014-11-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
233 2014-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
236 - Ruby 2.0.0 or later is recommended to use with shogi-server
237 since Ruby 1.8 reached its End-of-Life on the end of July, 2014.
239 - Addressed a warning of duplicated range in a regular expression.
241 2014-10-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
244 - A player, attempting to login with the current live player
245 stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
247 - Kifu record files now includes rating scores of players at the
248 time when games start. Previously, for rating games, a record
249 file includes player IDs of both players with a line starting with
250 "'rating". Now it also shows rating scores for players who have
251 valid scores. The formats for black and white players are as
253 'black_rate:<player_id>:<score>
254 'white_rate:<player_id>:<score>
256 'rating:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790
257 'black_rate:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2763.0
258 'white_rate:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2345.0
260 2014-10-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
263 - New feature: max moves
264 - New command line option: --max-moves n
265 When a game with the n-th move played does not end, make the
266 game a draw (default 256 in compliance with CSA Protocol V1.2
267 or later). Setting 0 disables this feature for
268 CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
269 - Players will receive a new message, "#MAX_MOVES", upon an end
273 - A new log summary type, "max_moves", has been assigned for games
274 drawing with max moves.
275 'summary:max_moves:name_sente draw:name_gote draw
276 - Least time per move:
277 - New command line option: --least-time-per-move n
278 This option specifies a least time in second per move, which
279 is 0 second by default, meaning that a decimal
280 fraction of time for a move will be truncated in compliance
281 with CSA Protocol V1.2 or later.
282 Set 1 for CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
284 2014-07-19 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
287 - Added a new option, --abnormal-threshold n:
288 Games that end with the 'abnormal' status are counted in
289 win/lost games for the rating calculation if a game plays more
290 than n plies. Otherwise (or if n is zero), abnormal games are
291 counted out of rating games.
293 2014-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
296 - Released: Revision "20140107"
298 2013-12-29 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
301 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
302 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
304 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
307 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
310 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
313 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
314 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
315 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
316 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
317 already in use - bind(2)".
319 - Released: Revision "20131215"
321 2013-12-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
324 - Added a new program, bin/usiToCsa.rb, which is a bridge for a
325 USI engine to connect to the Shogi-server.
326 - bin/usiToCsa is a sample wrapper script.
328 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
331 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
332 - Added a log message.
334 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
337 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
338 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
339 - Changed log messages and levels.
341 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
344 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
345 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
346 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
347 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
348 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
349 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
351 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
354 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
355 which filters out unrated players.
356 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
357 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
358 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
359 used in a specific Floodgate game.
360 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
361 - Implemented conversion of move representation between CSA format
364 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
367 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
368 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
370 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
371 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
372 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
373 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
374 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
375 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
376 already in use - bind(2)".
378 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
379 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
380 - Removed files that are no longer used.
382 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
385 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
386 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
387 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
388 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
390 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
393 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
396 - Flush after each output line.
397 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
399 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
402 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
403 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
404 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
406 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
409 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
410 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
411 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
412 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
413 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
414 miniute is regarded as zero.
415 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
416 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
418 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
421 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
422 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
423 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
425 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
427 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
430 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
431 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
432 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
433 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
434 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
435 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
437 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
440 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
441 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
442 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
443 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
444 where the previous position of the last one.
445 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
446 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
447 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
448 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
449 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
450 previous stable position.
451 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

504 This issue has been fixed.
506 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
509 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
510 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
511 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
512 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.

542 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
545 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
546 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
547 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
548 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
550 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
553 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
554 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
555 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
556 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
557 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
559 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
560 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
561 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.

577 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
578 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
579 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
581 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
584 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
585 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
586 earlier than system time.
587 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
588 now returns an instance correctly.
589 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
590 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
591 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
592 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
594 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
597 - shogi_server/command.rb:
598 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
599 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
600 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
602 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
603 ShogiServer::Logger class.
604 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
605 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
606 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
608 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
610 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
613 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
614 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
615 This issue has been fixed.
617 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
620 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
621 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
622 instead of deep_copy().
624 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
627 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
629 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
630 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
631 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
634 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
637 - A new command line option:
638 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
639 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
642 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
643 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
644 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
646 - Floodgate time configuration file:
647 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
648 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
649 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
650 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
653 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
654 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
655 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
656 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
657 default time settings.

677 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
678 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
680 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
683 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
684 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
686 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
689 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
690 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
691 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
692 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
693 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
695 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
698 - shogi_server/player.rb:
699 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
702 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
705 - shogi_server/command.rb:
706 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
707 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
708 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
710 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
713 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
714 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
715 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
716 impatiently sending a move twice.
718 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
721 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
722 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
723 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
726 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
729 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
730 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
731 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
732 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
733 "*" is not available.
743 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
746 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
747 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
748 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
749 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
750 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
751 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
752 appended to the record file.
753 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
754 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
756 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
758 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
760 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
763 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
764 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
766 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
769 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
770 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
771 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
772 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
775 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
778 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
780 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
781 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
782 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
783 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
784 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
785 previous class: StartGame.
786 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
787 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
789 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
792 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
794 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
797 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
798 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
799 ignored for the calculation.
801 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
804 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
805 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
806 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
807 Instruction to use the game result list file:
808 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
810 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
811 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
812 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
813 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
815 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
817 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
820 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
821 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
822 requires two steps as follows:
823 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
824 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
826 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
829 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
832 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
833 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
834 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
835 players can play a new game with the game name.
837 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
839 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
840 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
841 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
843 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
844 specific position that you want to start with.
845 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
846 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
847 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
848 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
849 game is removed automatically by the server.
851 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
852 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
853 allowed to delete it.
854 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
855 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
856 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
857 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
861 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
864 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
866 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
869 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
870 issue has been fixed.
873 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
876 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
877 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
878 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
881 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
884 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
885 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
886 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
887 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
890 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
893 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
894 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
897 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
899 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
900 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
903 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
906 - Improved performance.
908 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
911 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
912 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
913 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
915 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
917 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
918 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
920 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
923 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
924 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
925 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
926 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
928 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
931 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
932 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
934 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
937 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
938 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
940 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
941 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
942 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
943 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
944 time out. (Closes: #14469)
946 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
949 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
950 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
951 wdoor should be written by using this option.
953 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
956 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
959 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
960 incomplete records are skipped.
961 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
962 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
963 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
964 names in command line arguments.
966 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
969 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
972 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
973 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
975 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
978 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
981 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
983 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
986 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
987 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
988 records are taken care of when games are matched.
990 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
992 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
993 - Display time control graphs as well.
994 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
997 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1000 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
1001 - Daemon mode is available.
1002 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
1003 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
1004 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
1006 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1009 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
1010 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
1012 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1015 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
1016 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
1017 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
1018 of the game. (Closes #12821)
1019 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
1020 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
1021 it might have prevented other players from processing until
1022 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
1024 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1027 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
1028 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
1031 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1033 * [players_graph.rb]
1034 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
1036 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1039 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
1040 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
1042 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1045 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
1046 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
1047 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
1048 sending a HUP signal to the server.
1049 - The server log will be rotated daily.
1051 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1054 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
1055 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
1056 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
1057 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
1058 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
1060 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1063 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
1065 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1068 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
1069 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
1071 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
1072 method error in Pairing.
1074 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1077 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
1078 This bug has been fixed.
1079 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
1080 This issue has been fixed.
1082 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1085 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
1086 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
1087 This change will help users browse a file list.
1089 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1092 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
1095 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1098 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
1099 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
1102 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1105 - The half-life period is now configurable.
1106 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
1108 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1111 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
1113 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1116 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
1117 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
1119 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1122 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
1125 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1128 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
1129 issue has been fixed.
1130 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
1131 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
1132 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
1133 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
1136 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1139 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
1140 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
1141 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
1142 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
1144 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1146 * [util/players-graph.rb]
1147 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
1149 - Small PNG gets smaller.
1151 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1154 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
1155 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
1157 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1160 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
1161 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
1162 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
1164 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1167 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
1168 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
1169 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
1172 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1174 * [util/players-graph.rb]
1175 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
1177 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1180 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
1181 server. This issue has been fixed.
1183 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1186 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
1187 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
1188 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
1189 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
1192 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1195 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
1196 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
1197 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
1199 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
1200 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
1201 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
1203 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
1204 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
1206 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1209 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
1210 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
1212 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1215 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
1216 recently are not listed.

1229 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
1230 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
1231 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
1232 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
1233 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
1234 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
1235 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
1236 will be removed when the server shuts down.
1238 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1241 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
1242 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
1243 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
1244 day. This issue has been fixed.

1249 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
1250 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".

1257 It may not work with lower verions.
1259 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1262 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
1263 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
1264 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
1266 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1269 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
1270 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
1271 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
1273 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
1274 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
1276 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1279 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
1280 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
1281 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
1282 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
1283 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
1284 - Show revision in a start up message.
1286 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1289 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
1290 send LF, the server sends back LF.
1291 - More care for socket errors.
1293 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1295 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
1296 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows

1327 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
1329 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1331 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
1332 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
1333 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
1334 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
1337 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1339 * [mk_rate][mk_html]
1340 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
