Question

Events should be added in a config format

Opened this issue 6 years ago · 2 comments

Currently the events are hardcoded within the BossEvents.py file.

A significant improvement to flexability would be to load these from a config file type (JSON/YAML/XML)

Current exploratory work is being done using PyYaml to deserializer data.
Should allow for easy event configuration alongside extra metadata being added.

Progress made. Strange issues with lazy loading (potentially). Works but needs further investigation.

Current rational is:

Initial deserialization of node looks okay
Checking values revieved when calling loader.convert_mappings( node ) results in empty time array
Constructor for event reports empty time array
Call to get the value this was set (__rawTime) results in correct time logged.
