Major refactoring of the skills startup sequence
- Restructure to a less nested structure
- Remove usage of globals by wrapping a lot of state variables into a class this allows for things like caching a negative pairing status throughout the startup process
Message bus config loading is now shared by service and client.
messagebus.client.ws file is still available in case skills are using it. It is a backport that inherits from the new MessageBusClient class. Adds depreciation warning.
pychromecast needed to be updated to fix pip package version conflict
when using streaming google STT.
Minor issues with startup of audio needed to be handled, mainly adding
explicit waits to ensure commands would be accepted
the old "__metaclass__" has been ignored since the switch to python 3
this restores the metaclass functionality by updating it to the new
class kwarg syntax
The simple audio service can be paused. The audio is "paused" but placing the
audio playback mechanism (usually aplay or mpg123) into the background, kinda
like hitting Ctrl+Z. While in the background that process can no longer react
to the SIGTERM signal. So paused audio has to be brought to the foreground
using SIGCONT, and _then_ sent SIGTERM.
Also added a belt to go with these suspenders and perform a process.kill() if
the audio process doesn't go away after 1 second.
The message returned is a dict of all available audio backends as keys
containing 'supported_uris' listing supported uri types (file:// http://
etc.), 'remote' (bool) True if remote), 'default' (bool) true if the
default audio backend.
The restore_volume would previously unpause the service even if the user just asked for pausing playback.
This separates the paused flag from the pausing/resuming action so lowering/restoring volume doesn't affect the logical pausing state and can check it to determine if lowering/restoring is needed/wanted.
This adds a very simple mechanism for pausing and resuming audio streams
that are actively playing. The process is suspended and resumed when
requested.
This also uses that same method to implement lower_volume()/restore_volume() for simple "ducking" of audio.
* Refactor mimic2 to use the shared tts architecture
* Make sure the queue is cleared
- Add a convenience method grouping clear_queue and clear_visemes
- The start time is now set before the lock to allow multiple speech requests queued before the stop signal to also be cancelled
- Make sure the any pending TTS generation is cleared from the queue by calling tts.clear() when breaking from the chunking loop.
- Adds RemoteAudioBackend class, which is used to differentiate between
Remotes and local audio backends
- When searching for audio backends the backends are storted to first
check local ones and secondly remote ones
The audioservice can now jump forward and backward in the audio stream/file
The functionality is accessed via the audioservice class's seek_forward(),
seek_backward() and seek() methods
The common play skill sends a stop message in the CPS_start(), if the play message is sent too close to the stop message it may be executed before the stop message causing playback to immediately stop.
To circumvent this a 1 second stop ignore time is added.
* Add repeat option to audioservice
The audioservice.play() method now accepts a repeat parameter. If this
parameter is True the playlist passed to the audio service will be
repeated.
* Add repeat support to vlc
* Add the repeat parameter to all services
Not functional but playback will work at least. Hacktoberfest?
* Use correct method to guess mime type
* Use the commands from mycroft.conf
- Remove hardcoded commands and use the ones from mycroft.util to handle
configurations.
- Improve error handling
This is reimplementation of #1649 which became divergent.
## Description
Adds a Ogg123Service and a play_ogg exactly like Mpg123Service and play_mp3
## How to test
I have a skill for a podcast which does not have an mp3 feed:

This fixes a stray lock.release() causing a silent
RuntimeError: release unlocked lock
after TTS execution but just before reporting the timing for the TTS system.
* Handle stop correctly in the audio service.
This allows for example the news skill playback to be stopped without
the listening being triggered.
* Handle case where service stops at end of playlist
- Fix issue when receiving multiple stop signals
- Stop method of services now returns True or False depending on if audio was playing
The Mark 1 button press can now be "consumed" when a skill handles
the Stop command. When this happens, the button press will not
trigger listening mode. An additional press would be needed to
trigger listening.
This introduces the "mycroft.stop.handled" messagebus message. It
carries a data field called "by" which identifies who handled it.
Currently the values are "TTS" for when speaking ends or the name
of a skill which implements Stop and returns True from the call.
Also fixed a potential bug when the flag to clear queued visemes
was left set after a button press.
