This addresses this in several ways:
* Created mechanism to load 'commented' JSON (using '//' or '#' comments on a single line)
* Embedded comments into the mycroft.conf, indicating use, legal values, and where they get overridden
* Create ConfigurationManager.instance() static method to replace ConfigurationManager.get(). This produces more readable code like:
ConfigurationManager.instance().get("value") instead of ConfigurationManager.get().get("value")
* Made _ConfigurationListener 'private'
* docstring'ed things
* intent_failure message now carries along the utterance's lang code
* normalizing query for Wolfram Alpha
* added normalization of "whats" to "what is". This is technically incorrect ("whats" means more than one instance of "what", as in "the whats and whys of open source"), but that is a rare phrase. Unfortunately, several STT engines incorrectly output things like "whats 8 + 4", which is grammatically incorrect. So we'll handle the common and potentially screw up the uncommon.
* more parsing test cases, including a few corrections
The utterance is now placed on the bus along with its language code. If not specified, it uses "en-us".
Added a new mycroft.util.parse module. It contains the normalize() function. Normalization currently does two things:
* Expands contractions ("they're" -> "they are", etc)
* Optionally removes articles ("a", "an", "the"). Removing is the default.
* Textual numbers become digits, up to 20. E.g. "What is the weather in four days" becomes "What is weather in 4 days".
NOTE: This is potentially a breaking change! Remove "the", "a" and "an" from your .voc files!
Skill changes:
* I cleaned up the .voc files for the default Skills.
* Split the date_time keyword into an extra entity. Now a "QueryKeyword.voc" exists, with "what|tell" instead of combing that into "what is time" in the TimeKeyword.voc.
* Volume skill now accepts 1-11, e.g. "turn volume to 11"
Add cleanup procedure to skills:
MycroftSkill cleanup does nothing, ScheduledSkill will cancel running timers to make sure it's not blocking termination.
Tests updated to use this allowing unit test to exit after completion.
* Added new listener config options
* Fixed audio unit tests
This adds a cleareraudio file for the wakeup test and changesto the new LocalRecognizer constructor
* Added .dict files to .gitignore
This is because they are now auto-generated on startup rather than stored permanently
* Fixed audio accuracy test for new LocalRecognizer constructor
* Added support for spaces in wake word config
In the phonemes a new word is indicated by a period character. The separating of the words actually changes the way pocketsphinx interprets the sound of it and in this case improves it
* Fixed unit test
* Added new compiled regex for what's
This is for verbs that don't have a space between the question word and verb
* Added support for 'whats' in wolfram
* Added tests for the EnglishQuestionParser
* Issues 192 - WA skill will now search again with top alternative
* Issues 192 - Add tests for new method
* Issues 192 - Fix pep8
* Issues 192 - Update test syntax
* Issues 192 - Change WA skill to use dialog
* Issues 192 - Address feedback
* Issues 158 - Update ScheduledSkill time formatting
* Issues 158 - Add unit tests for new method changes
* Issues 158 - Change to not use date-based implementation to fix tests
* Issues 158 - Address feedback
One unit test, call and response, no longer directly applies. Perhaps we should test that the listener waits for the user to respond however for that I think the 1000 sudio samples would work better.
Another unit test, testing the WakeWord extractor, should be routed through the WakWord extractor directly. For the moment this has been disabled (since it isn't too much a priority because the WakeWord extractor is not used at the moment) but should be a TODO.
