roadmap [archive candidate]

[JarbasAl]

this repo tries to do many things at once, it is being semi-retired, if someone from community wants to maintain it PRs will be accepted, but it will stop being shipped in our images and go into life support mode otherwise

• move log monitor helper class to ovos-utils
• new util entrypoint in ovos-utils -> ovos-log-monitor path/to/logs/folder
• this repo only for backwards compat in mycroft.client module, to be dropped in 0.2.0
• adopt neon mana as default component of OVOS, it uses the several messagebus apis and handles the decentralized nature of our services https://github.com/NeonGeckoCom/neon-mana-utils

changes in neon-mana:

• mycroft-messagebus-client -> ovos-bus-client
• pyyaml~=5.4 bump to 6.0
• drop neon-utils + port b64 methods to ovos-utils

issues in ovos-cli-client:

• inherently tied to hardcoded log locations, there is no proper fix possible for #12 when each service may be in a different machine or logs not being saved
• not updated, many commands are broken such as :skills not accounting for latest ovos updates and not using the messagebus api
• exception to the messagebus routing paradigm, it is considered a native audio source for legacy reasons

wontfix:

• https://github.com/OpenVoiceOS/ovos-cli-client/issues/12
• https://github.com/OpenVoiceOS/ovos-cli-client/pull/9

My only issue with mana is the Neon dependencies it pulls in.

changes in neon-mana: drop neon-utils + port b64 methods to ovos-utils

If that can be fixed, I'm ok with adding it to the images
