3 * [shogi-server] Support a graceful shutdown.
4 A file named "STOP" in the base directory prevents the server from
5 starting new games including Floodgate matches.
7 * [shogi-server] Create a directory for a PID file.
8 To put a PID file such as /var/run/shogi-server/shogi-server.pid, if
9 directories do not exist, they will be created recursively.
12 2018-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
14 * [shogi-server] Give more penalty on assigning matches with same
18 2017-09-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
20 * [shogi-server] Write game results in categorical files
21 The shogi-server now writes down game results in the following
22 files, depending on a game class:
24 - 00LIST.floodgate: floodgate games
25 - 00LIST.others: non-floodgate games
28 2017-09-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
30 * [shogi-server] Write more game results in record files
31 As the CSA Record Format standard states, "%TIME_UP" and
32 "%SENNICHITE" are now recorded in CSA files when a game ends for
33 timed up or sennichite respectively.
35 * [shogi-server, mk_game_results, mk_rate] Change schema to add number of
36 moves The format of an internal game result summary file, '00LIST',
37 has been changed to add number of moves of a game, which would be of
38 help for a script calculating rating scores.
40 * Update Revision to 20170902
42 2017-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
44 * utils/csa-filter.rb: Allow csa-filter.rb to filter games by a winner or loser
45 New command lines, --winner <player> or --loser <player>, are now
46 supported to supply extra filtering conditions. Note that each
47 filter is combined as AND condition.
49 - % ./csa-filter.rb ~/Downloads/20160314 --white gpsfish_xeon --loser gpsfish_xeon
50 - % ./csa-filter.rb ~/Downloads/20160314 --white gpsfish_xeon --winner gpsfish_xeon
53 2016-12-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
55 * Update Revision to 20161211.
58 2016-12-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
60 * Allow util/statistics.rb to set a filtering condition of found files
61 Regarding util/statistics.rb, add a new command line option,
62 --filter regexp, to process files that are matched with a regexp.
63 It would make it easier to calculate statistics of certain games.
66 2016-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
68 * [shogi-server] Allow to customize maximum lenght of a login indentifier
70 - The current maximum length of a login identifier is 32. Some
71 private uses require longer player names to distinguish each other
72 by specifying randomly generated tokens. It would of help to add a
73 new command line option --max-identifier to overwrite the default
75 * Build a Docker image for Shogi-server
77 - Build a Docker image
79 - Running a local shogi-server would look like
80 % docker pull shogiserver/shogiserver
81 % docker run -p 4081:4081 -v `pwd`/logs:/logs shogiserver/shogiserver
82 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/game.rb:
83 - Remove a debug message
85 2016-04-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
88 - Support Fischer time control.
89 * [shogi-server] Bump up the revision to 20160409.
91 2016-04-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
93 * [shogi-server] Support Fischer Time Control
95 - Fischer time control means that:
96 Before a player has made their move, a specified time increment is
97 added to their clock. Time can be accumulated, so if the player
98 moves within the delay period, their remaining time actually
100 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_clock)
101 - New syntax of game names:
102 An 'F' suffix denotes a Fisher time in seconds. For example,
103 "floodgate-600-10F" specifies
105 + Total allotted time is 600 seconds for each player
106 + 10-second increment before a player's move in a Fischer way
107 - The server now proposes game conditions upon a game start with
108 - "Protocol_Version 1.2"
109 - "Increment:<n>" for Fischer Time Control
110 - Kifu files can include the following comment for Fischer Time
113 * [shogi-server] Fix some lint warnings.
115 2015-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
117 * [shogi-server] Enhance capability of Floodgate configuration file
118 - New parameter: Max_Moves, defined in the CSA protocol
119 ex. set Max_Moves 256
120 - New parameter: Least_Time_Per_Move, defined in the CSA protocol
121 ex. set Least_Time_Per_Move 0
122 - Proposed messages distributed to each player upon starting a new
123 game will include Max_Moves as well as Least_Time_Per_Move.
124 - CSA files produced by the server will include settings of
125 Max_Moves and Least_Time_Per_Move in comment lines as follows:
127 'Least_Time_Per_Move:0
128 - The official Shogi-server on wdoor.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp will
129 be running with different parameters, depending on game names.
130 a) Max_Moves will be 256 for floodgate-600-10 games;
132 b) Least_Time_Per_Move will be 0 for floodgate-600-10 games;
135 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/pairing.rb:
136 - LeastDiff attempts more trials, depending of a number of players
137 to be matched, top achieve more optimized matching combinations.
139 2015-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
141 * [shogi-server] shogi_server/time_clock.rb:
142 - A time consumed could be -1.
143 * The start time of a move is captured after sending a move to a
144 player of the next turn at the end of the giant lock
145 * The end time of the move is captured at the exact time when the
146 server receives it before the giant lock
147 Therefore, end_time < start_time is possible when a player returns a
149 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for reporting this issue.
152 2015-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
154 * util/statistics.rb:
155 - Updated to investigate floodgate-600-10 games.
156 Consult the result at
157 http://www.sgtpepper.net/hyspro/diary/20150214.html.
158 - Added a companion R script: histogram.R
160 2015-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
163 - shogi_server/login.rb: When players are logged in, log their
164 player_id if they have it.
166 2015-01-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
169 - Getting an absolute path of this file was wrong if it was a
170 symbolic link. This issue has been addressed.
172 - Links to details pages for players now use a relative path so
173 that it works on a testing site.
175 2015-01-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
178 - shogi-server, shogi_server/{command,game_result,player}.rb:
179 The change at 2014-10-13 was not worked as expected. Reworked.
180 A player, attempting to login with the current live player
181 stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
184 2015-01-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
187 - shogi_server.rb: Follow an API change in a upstream class:
188 LogDevice.previous_period_end
190 2014-12-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
193 - When a non-rated player participates in Floodgate, the following exception
194 was thrown and a Floodgate game would not start:
195 undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
196 ["/home/shogi-server/www/x/shogi_server/pairing.rb:499:in `block
197 in calculate_diff_with_penalty'"
198 This issue has been resolved. Only players who have player ID
199 (i.e. those who log in with valid password) are now allowed to
200 participate in Floodgate as the spec web page
201 [http://shogi-server.sourceforge.jp/rating.html] describes.
203 2014-12-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
206 - Addressed Ruby incompatibility on ShogiServer::Usi::alphabetToDan.
207 It (and usiToCsa.rb) did not work with Ruby 1.9.3. This issue
209 Thanks to Hiraoka-san for debugging.
211 2014-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
213 * utils/eval_graph.rb:
214 - Gnuplot 4.6.6 drew evaluation-value lines with a dashed style.
215 This issue has now been addressed so that solid lines are used.
217 2014-11-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
222 2014-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
225 - Ruby 2.0.0 or later is recommended to use with shogi-server
226 since Ruby 1.8 reached its End-of-Life on the end of July, 2014.
228 - Addressed a warning of duplicated range in a regular expression.
230 2014-10-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
233 - A player, attempting to login with the current live player
234 stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
236 - Kifu record files now includes rating scores of players at the
237 time when games start. Previously, for rating games, a record
238 file includes player IDs of both players with a line starting with
239 "'rating". Now it also shows rating scores for players who have
240 valid scores. The formats for black and white players are as
242 'black_rate:<player_id>:<score>
243 'white_rate:<player_id>:<score>
245 'rating:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790
246 'black_rate:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2763.0
247 'white_rate:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2345.0
249 2014-10-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
252 - New feature: max moves
253 - New command line option: --max-moves n
254 When a game with the n-th move played does not end, make the
255 game a draw (default 256 in compliance with CSA Protocol V1.2
256 or later). Setting 0 disables this feature for
257 CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
258 - Players will receive a new message, "#MAX_MOVES", upon an end
262 - A new log summary type, "max_moves", has been assigned for games
263 drawing with max moves.
264 'summary:max_moves:name_sente draw:name_gote draw
265 - Least time per move:
266 - New command line option: --least-time-per-move n
267 This option specifies a least time in second per move, which
268 is 0 second by default, meaning that a decimal
269 fraction of time for a move will be truncated in compliance
270 with CSA Protocol V1.2 or later.
271 Set 1 for CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
273 2014-07-19 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
276 - Added a new option, --abnormal-threshold n:
277 Games that end with the 'abnormal' status are counted in
278 win/lost games for the rating calculation if a game plays more
279 than n plies. Otherwise (or if n is zero), abnormal games are
280 counted out of rating games.
282 2014-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
285 - Released: Revision "20140107"
287 2013-12-29 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
290 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
291 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
293 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
296 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
299 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
302 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
303 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
304 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
305 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
306 already in use - bind(2)".
308 - Released: Revision "20131215"
310 2013-12-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
313 - Added a new program, bin/usiToCsa.rb, which is a bridge for a
314 USI engine to connect to the Shogi-server.
315 - bin/usiToCsa is a sample wrapper script.
317 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
320 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
321 - Added a log message.
323 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
326 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
327 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
328 - Changed log messages and levels.
330 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
333 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
334 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
335 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
336 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
337 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
338 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
340 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
343 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
344 which filters out unrated players.
345 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
346 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
347 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
348 used in a specific Floodgate game.
349 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
350 - Implemented conversion of move representation between CSA format
353 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
356 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
357 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
359 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
360 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
361 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
362 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
363 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
364 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
365 already in use - bind(2)".
367 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
368 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
369 - Removed files that are no longer used.
371 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
374 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
375 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
376 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
377 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
379 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
382 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
385 - Flush after each output line.
386 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
388 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
391 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
392 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
393 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
395 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
398 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
399 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
400 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
401 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
402 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
403 miniute is regarded as zero.
404 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
405 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
407 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
410 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
411 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
412 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
414 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
416 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
419 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
420 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
421 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
422 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
423 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
424 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
426 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
429 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
430 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
431 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
432 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
433 where the previous position of the last one.
434 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
435 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
436 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
437 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
438 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
439 previous stable position.
440 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

493 This issue has been fixed.
495 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
498 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
499 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
500 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
501 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.

528 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
529 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
531 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
534 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
535 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
536 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
537 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
539 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
542 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
543 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
544 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
545 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
546 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
548 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
549 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
550 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
552 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
555 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
556 The Buoy behavior is changed.
557 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
558 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
560 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
561 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
563 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
566 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be

568 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
570 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
573 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
574 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
575 earlier than system time.
576 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
577 now returns an instance correctly.
578 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
579 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
580 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
581 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
583 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
586 - shogi_server/command.rb:
587 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
588 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
589 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
591 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
592 ShogiServer::Logger class.
593 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
594 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
595 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
597 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
599 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
602 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
603 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
604 This issue has been fixed.
606 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
609 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
610 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
611 instead of deep_copy().
613 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
616 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
618 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
619 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
620 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
623 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
626 - A new command line option:
627 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
628 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
631 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
632 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
633 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
635 - Floodgate time configuration file:
636 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
637 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
638 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
639 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
642 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
643 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
644 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
645 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
646 default time settings.

666 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
667 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
669 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
672 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
673 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
675 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
678 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
679 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
680 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
681 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
682 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
684 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
687 - shogi_server/player.rb:
688 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
691 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
694 - shogi_server/command.rb:
695 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
696 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
697 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
699 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
702 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
703 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
704 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
705 impatiently sending a move twice.
707 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
710 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
711 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
712 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
715 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
718 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
719 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
720 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
721 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
722 "*" is not available.
732 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
735 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
736 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
737 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
738 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
739 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
740 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
741 appended to the record file.
742 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
743 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
745 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
747 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
749 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
752 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
753 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
755 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
758 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
759 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
760 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
761 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
764 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
767 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
769 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
770 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
771 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
772 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
773 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
774 previous class: StartGame.
775 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
776 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
778 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
781 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
783 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
786 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
787 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
788 ignored for the calculation.
790 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
793 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
794 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
795 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
796 Instruction to use the game result list file:
797 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
799 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
800 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
801 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
802 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
804 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
806 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
809 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
810 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
811 requires two steps as follows:
812 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
813 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
815 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
818 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
821 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
822 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
823 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
824 players can play a new game with the game name.
826 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
828 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
829 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
830 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
832 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
833 specific position that you want to start with.
834 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
835 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
836 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
837 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
838 game is removed automatically by the server.
840 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
841 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
842 allowed to delete it.
843 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
844 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
845 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
846 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
850 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
853 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
855 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
858 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
859 issue has been fixed.
862 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
865 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
866 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
867 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
870 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
873 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
874 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
875 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
876 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
879 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
882 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
883 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
886 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
888 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
889 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
892 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
895 - Improved performance.
897 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
900 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
901 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
902 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
904 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
906 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
907 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
909 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
912 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
913 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
914 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
915 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
917 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
920 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
921 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
923 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
926 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
927 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
929 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
930 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
931 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
932 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
933 time out. (Closes: #14469)
935 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
938 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
939 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
940 wdoor should be written by using this option.
942 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
945 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
948 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
949 incomplete records are skipped.
950 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
951 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
952 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
953 names in command line arguments.
955 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
958 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
961 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
962 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
964 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
967 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
970 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
972 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
975 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
976 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
977 records are taken care of when games are matched.
979 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
981 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
982 - Display time control graphs as well.
983 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
986 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
989 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
990 - Daemon mode is available.
991 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
992 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
993 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
995 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
998 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
999 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
1001 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1004 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
1005 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
1006 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
1007 of the game. (Closes #12821)
1008 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
1009 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
1010 it might have prevented other players from processing until
1011 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
1013 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1016 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
1017 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
1020 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1022 * [players_graph.rb]
1023 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
1025 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1028 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
1029 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
1031 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1034 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
1035 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
1036 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
1037 sending a HUP signal to the server.
1038 - The server log will be rotated daily.
1040 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1043 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
1044 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
1045 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
1046 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
1047 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
1049 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1052 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
1054 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1057 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
1058 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
1060 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
1061 method error in Pairing.
1063 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1066 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
1067 This bug has been fixed.
1068 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
1069 This issue has been fixed.
1071 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1074 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
1075 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
1076 This change will help users browse a file list.
1078 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1081 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
1084 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1087 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
1088 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
1091 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1094 - The half-life period is now configurable.
1095 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
1097 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1100 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
1102 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1105 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
1106 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
1108 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1111 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
1114 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1117 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
1118 issue has been fixed.
1119 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
1120 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
1121 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
1122 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
1125 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1128 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
1129 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
1130 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
1131 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
1133 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1135 * [util/players-graph.rb]
1136 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
1138 - Small PNG gets smaller.
1140 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1143 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
1144 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
1146 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1149 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
1150 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
1151 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
1153 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1156 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
1157 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
1158 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
1161 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1163 * [util/players-graph.rb]
1164 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
1166 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1169 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
1170 server. This issue has been fixed.
1172 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1175 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
1176 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
1177 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
1178 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
1181 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1184 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
1185 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
1186 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
1188 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
1189 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
1190 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
1192 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
1193 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
1195 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1198 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
1199 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
1201 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1204 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
1205 recently are not listed.
1207 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
1209 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1211 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
1212 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
1214 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
1216 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1218 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
1219 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
1220 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
1221 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
1222 an absolute path before switching to daemon.

1269 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
1270 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
1271 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
1272 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
