1.14.0 - July 23, 2016

Changes

1.14.0 Jul 23 2016

• Make the session manager pluggable and replaceable. RiveScript still uses
  an in-memory store for user variables, but this can be swapped out with a
  replacement that puts user variables somewhere else, like Redis or MySQL.
  The constructor accepts a session_manager parameter to use your own
  session manager based on the rivescript.sessions.SessionManager class.
• Make the RiveScript Parser module (rivescript.parser) more developer
  friendly by removing the parent RiveScript module as a dependency. The
  parser can be used as a stand-alone module if all you want to do is parse
  and validate RiveScript code.
• The log parameter to the constructor may now be an already opened file
  handle (opened in write or append mode) instead of a string, if you already
  have a file handle ready.
• Add two examples to the eg directory:
  • eg/sessions replaces the in-memory session store with one that uses
    a Redis cache instead.
  • eg/parser shows how to use the RiveScript Parser module.
• Fix a bug where atomic triggers that contain a {weight} tag were unable
  to be matched properly.
• Reorganize the unit tests into many smaller files instead of one large one.
