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.
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.
- Engines now specify if they support ssml rather than the configuration
- The text client strips out ssml tags
- Engines can modify tags via the `self.modify_tag` method
This sends a ctrl+c signal to each process which will allow code to exit properly by handling KeyboardInterrupt
Other notable changes:
- create_daemon method used to clean up create daemon threads
- create_echo_function used to reduce code duplication with messagebus
echo functions
- wait_for_exit_signal used to wait for ctrl+c (SIGINT)
- reset_sigint_handler used to ensure SIGINT will raise KeyboardInterrupt
The speak method digs through the stack trying to find a Message object
and if found uses the context from that message when sending the data to
the speech subsystem.
==== Tech Notes ====
STT, intent handling, intent fallbacks, skill handlers are now timed and
tied together with a ident (consistent through the chain so the flow from
STT until completion of the skill handler can be follewed.
TTS execution time is also measured, right now this is not tied into the
ident due to the nature of the speech.
The report is always called "timing" and always contain the following
fields:
- id: Identifier grouping the metrics into interactions
- system: Which part (STT, intent service, skill handler, etc)
- start_time: timestamp for when the action started
- time: how long it took to execute the action
The different system adds their own specific information, for example
the intent_service adds the intent_type, i.e. which handler was matched.
==== Protocol Notes ====
mycroft.skills.loaded is sent togheter with skill id and skill name
whenever a skill is loaded. This is used in the intent_service to
convert from id to skill name when reporting
the lock could be taken by a waiting thread between sentences in a multi-sentenced utterance. This locking method will allow the entire utterance to be synthezised before handling next.
Add support for 'mycroft.mic.listen' on the messagebus to trigger the system
to listen for STT processing. This can be posted on the messagebus by outside
systems, such as a physical or GUI Listen button.
This commit officially switches the mycroft-core repository from
GPLv3.0 licensing to Apache 2.0. All dependencies on GPL'ed code
have been removed and we have contacted all previous contributors
with still-existing code in the repository to agree to this change.
Going forward, all contributors will sign a Contributor License
Agreement (CLA) by visiting https://mycroft.ai/cla, then they will
be included in the Mycroft Project's overall Contributor list,
found at: https://github.com/MycroftAI/contributors. This cleanly
protects the project, the contributor and all who use the technology
to build upon.
Futher discussion can be found at this blog post:

This commit also removes all __author__="" from the code. These
lines are painful to maintain and the etiquette surrounding their
maintainence is unclear. Do you remove a name from the list if the
last line of code the wrote gets replaced? Etc. Now all
contributors are publicly acknowledged in the aforementioned repo,
and actual authorship is maintained by Github in a much more
effective and elegant way!
Finally, a few references to "Mycroft AI" were changed to the correct
legal entity name "Mycroft AI Inc."
==== Fixed Issues ====
#403 Update License.md and file headers to Apache 2.0
#400 Update LICENSE.md
==== Documentation Notes ====
Deprecated the ScheduledSkill and ScheduledCRUDSkill classes.
These capabilities have been superceded by the more flexible MycroftSkill
class methods schedule_event(), schedule_repeating_event(), update_event(),
and cancel_event().
==== Tech Notes ====
isSpeaking was lowered as soon a the tts had synthesized the audio and
not when the output finished. This commit moves the signal
raising/lowering to the tts instead of the 'mycroft.speak' handler.
===Fixed issues ====
#958
==== Tech Notes ====
Adds method clear_visimes() to voice playback thread to stop visime stream
instead of having visime stream check for signals.
==== Documentation Notes ====
NONE - things like description of a new feature or notes on behavior
changes

NONE - point out new strings, functions needing international versions,
etc.
