psendil 0c0c5c1301 Version 1.8 alexa-client-sdk
Changes in this update:

Enhancements

Added local stop functionality. This allows a user to stop an active function, such as an alert or timer, by uttering "Alexa, stop" when an Alexa-enabled product is offline.
Alerts in the background now stream in 10 sec intervals, rather than continuously.
Added support for France to the sample app.
friendlyName can now be updated for BlueZ implementations of BlueZBluetoothDevice and BlueZHostController.
Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where the Bluetooth agent didn't clear user data upon reset, including paired devices and the uuidMapping table.
Fixed MediaPlayer threading issues. Now each instance has it's own glib main loop thread, rather than utilizing the default main context worker thread.
Fixed segmentation fault issues that occurred when certain static initializers needed to be initialized in a certain order, but the order wasn't defined.
Known Issues

The ACL may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
SpeechSynthesizerState currently uses GAINING_FOCUS and LOSING_FOCUS as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
The Alexa app doesn't always indicate when a device is successfully connected via Bluetooth.
Connecting a product to streaming media via Bluetooth will sometimes stop media playback within the source application. Resuming playback through the source application or toggling next/previous will correct playback.
When a source device is streaming silence via Bluetooth, the Alexa companion app indicates that audio content is streaming.
The Bluetooth agent assumes that the Bluetooth adapter is always connected to a power source. Disconnecting from a power source during operation is not yet supported.
On some products, interrupted Bluetooth playback may not resume if other content is locally streamed.
On Raspberry Pi, when streaming audio via Bluetooth, sometimes the audio stream stutters.
On Raspberry Pi, BlueALSA must be terminated each time the device boots. See Raspberry Pi Quick Start Guide for more information.

Marco Visaya 7bea05a9c7 Version 1.7.0 of the avs-device-sdk
Changes in this update:

**Enhancements**
* `AuthDelegate` and `AuthServer.py` have been replaced by `CBLAUthDelegate`, which provides a more straightforward path to authorization.
* Added a new configuration property called [`cblAuthDelegate`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L2). This object specifies parameters for `CBLAuthDelegate`.
* Added a new configuration property called [`miscDatabase`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L34), which is a generic key/value database to be used by various components.
* Added a new configuration property called [`dcfDelegate`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L17) This object specifies parameters for `DCFDelegate`. Within this object, values were added for the 'endpoint' and `overridenDcfPublishMessageBody`. 'endpoint' is the endpoint to connect to in order to send device capabilities. `overridenDcfPublishMessageBody`is the message that will get sent out to the Capabilities API. Note: values within the `dcfDelegate` object will only work in `DEBUG` builds.
* Added a new configuration property called [`deviceInfo`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L9) which specifies device-identifying information for use by the Device Capability Framework (DCF), and for authorization (CBLAuthDelegate).
* Updated the Directive Sequencer to support wildcard directive handlers. This allows a handler for a given AVS interface to register at the namespace level, rather than specifying the names of all directives within that namespace.
* Updated the Raspberry Pi installation script to include `alsasink` in the configuration file.
* Added `audioSink` as a configuration option. This allows users to override the audio sink element used in `Gstreamer`.
* Added an interface for monitoring internet connection status: `InternetConnectionMonitorInterface.h`.
* The Alexa Communications Library (ACL) is no longer required to wait until authorization has succeeded before attempting to connect to AVS. Instead, `HTTP2Transport` handles waiting for authorization to complete.
* Added the Device Capabilities Framework (DCF) delegate. Device capabilities can now be sent for each capability interface using DCF publish messages.
* The sample app has been updated to send DCF publish messages, which will automatically occur when the sample app starts. Note: a DCF publish message must be successfully sent in order for communication with AVS to occur.
* The SDK now supports HTTP PUT messages.
* Added support for opt-arg style arguments and multiple configuration files. Now, the sample app can be invoked by either of these commands: `SampleApp <configfile> <debuglevel>` OR `SampleApp -C file1 -C file2 ... -L loglevel`.

**Bug Fixes**
* Issues [447](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/447) and [553](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/553) Fixed the `AttachmentRenderSource`'s handling of `BLOCKING` `AttachmentReaders`.
* Updated the `Logger` implementation to be more resilient to `nullptr` string inputs.
* Fixed a `TimeUtils` utility-related compile issue.
* Fixed a bug in which alerts failed to activate if the system was restarted without network connection.
* Fixed Android 64-bit build failure issue.

**Known Issues**
* The `ACL` may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
* `SpeechSynthesizerState` currently uses `GAINING_FOCUS` and `LOSING_FOCUS` as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
* Some ERROR messages may be printed during start-up event if initialization proceeds normally and successfully.
* If an unrecoverable authorization error or an unrecoverable DCF error is encountered, the sample app may crash on shutdown.
* If a non-CBL `clientId` is included in the `deviceInfo` section of `AlexaClientSDKConfig.json`, the error will be reported as an unrecoverable authorization error, rather than a more specific error.

Sanjay Devireddy 46fd5482bc Verison 1.6 of the avs-device-sdk
Changes in this update:

**Enhancements**
* `rapidJson` is now included with "make install".
* Updated the `TemplateRuntimeObserverInterface` to support clearing of `displayCards`.
* Added Windows SDK support, along with an installation script (MinGW-w64).
* Updated `ContextManager` to ignore context reported by a state provider.
* The `SharedDataStream` object is now associated by playlist, rather than by URL.
* Added the `RegistrationManager` component. Now, when a user logs out all persistent user-specific data is cleared from the SDK. The log out functionality can be exercised in the sample app with the new command: `k`.

**Bug Fixes**
* [Issue 400](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/400) Fixed a bug where the alert reminder did not iterate as intended after loss of network connection.
* [Issue 477](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/477) Fixed a bug in which Alexa's weather response was being truncated.
* Fixed an issue in which there were reports of instability related to the Sensory engine. To correct this, the `portAudio` [`suggestedLatency`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L62) value can now be configured.

**Known Issues**
* The `ACL` may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
* `SpeechSynthesizerState` currently uses `GAINING_FOCUS` and `LOSING_FOCUS` as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
* Music playback doesn't immediately stop when a user barges-in on iHeartRadio.
* The Windows sample app sometimes hangs on exit.
* GDP receives a `SIGPIPE` when troubleshooting the Windows sample app.

Celina G. Val add1956688 Version 1.5.0 alexa-client-sdk
Changes in this update:

**Enhancements**
* Added the `ExternalMediaPlayer` Capability Agent. This allows playback from music providers that control their own playback queue. Example: Spotify.
* Added support for AU and NZ to the `SampleApp`.
* Firmware version can now be sent to Alexa via the `SoftwareInfo` event. The firmware version is specified in the config file under the `sampleApp` object as an integer value named [`firmwareVersion`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L52).
* The new `f` command was added to the `SampleApp` which allows the firmware version to be updated at run-time.
* Optional configuration changes have been introduced. Now a [default log level](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L93) can be set for `ACSDK_LOG_MODULE` components, globally or individually. This value is specified under a new root level configuration object called `logger`, and the value itself is named `logLevel`. This allows you to limit the degree of logging to that default value, such as `ERROR`or `INFO`.

**Bug Fixes**
* Fixed bug where `AudioPlayer` progress reports were not being sent, or were being sent incorrectly.
* [Issue 408](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/408) - Irrelevant code related to `UrlSource` was removed from the `GStreamer-based MediaPlayer` implementation.
* The `TZ` variable no longer needs to be set to `UTC` when building the `SampleApp`.
* Fixed a bug where `CurlEasyHandleWrapper` logged unwanted data on failure conditions.
* Fixed a bug to improve `SIGPIPE` handling.
* Fixed a bug where the filename and classname were mismatched. Changed `UrlToAttachmentConverter.h` to `UrlContentToAttachmentConverter.h`,and `UrlToAttachmentConverter.cpp` to `UrlContentToAttachmentConverter.cpp`

**Known Issues**
* The `ACL` may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
* Display Cards for Kindle don't render.
* If using the GStreamer-based `MediaPlayer` implementation, after muting and un-muting an audio item, the next item in the queue will begin playing rather than continuing playback of the originally muted audio item.
* `SpeechSynthesizerState` currently uses `GAINING_FOCUS` and `LOSING_FOCUS` as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
* Music playback doesn't immediately stop when a user barges-in on iHeartRadio.

Celina G. Val 5259a2f62e Version 1.4.0 alexa-client-sdk
Changes in this update:

**Enhancements**
* Added the Notifications Capability Agent. This allows a client to receive notification indicators from Alexa.
* Added support for the `SoftwareInfo` event. This code is triggered in the `SampleApp` by providing a positive decimal integer as the "firmwareVersion" value in "sampleApp" object of the `AlexaClientSDKConfig.json`. The reported firmware version can be updated after starting the `SampleApp` by calling `SoftwareInfoSender::setFirmwareVersion()`. This code path can be exercised in the `SampleApp` with the new command: `f`.
* Added unit tests for Alerts.
* The GStreamer-based pipeline allows for the configuration of `MediaPlayer` output based on information provided in `Config`.
* Playlist streaming now uses a `BLOCKING` writer, which improves streaming efficiency.

**Bug Fixes**
* Fixed bug where `SpeechSynthesizer` would not stop playback when a state change timeout was encountered.
* Fixed the `SampleApplication` destructor to avoid segfaults if the object is not constructed correctly.
* Fixed bug where `AudioPlayer` would erroneously call `executeStop()` in `cancelDirective()`.
* [Issue 396](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/396) - Fixed bug for compilation error with GCC7 in `AVSCommon/SDKInterfaces/include/AVSCommon/SDKInterfaces/Audio/AlertsAudioFactoryInterface.h`
* [Issue 384](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/384) - Fixed bug that caused `AuthServer.py` to crash.
* Fixed bug where a long delay was encountered after pausing and resuming a large Audible chapter.
* Fixed bug that caused named timers and reminders to loop for an additional `loopCount` .
* Fixed memory corruption bug in `MessageInterpreter`.
* Fixed illegal memory accesses in `MediaPlayer` logging.

**Known Issues**
* The `ACL` may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
* Display Cards for Kindle don't render.
* If using the GStreamer-based `MediaPlayer` implementation, after muting and un-muting an audio item, the next item in the queue will begin playing rather than continuing playback of the originally muted audio item.
* `SpeechSynthesizerState` currently uses `GAINING_FOCUS` and `LOSING_FOCUS` as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
* Music playback doesn't immediately stop when a user barges-in on iHeartRadio.

Ken Cecka 1b712a1e97 v1.3.0 released 12/08/2017:
**Enhancements**
* ContextManager now passes the namespace/name of the desired state to StateProv
iderInterface::provideState().  This is helpful when a single StateProvider obje
ct provides multiple states, and needs to know which one ContextManager is askin
g for.
* The mime parser was hardened against duplicate boundaries.
* Added functionality to add and remove AudioPlayer observers to the DefaultClie
nt.
* Unit tests for Alerts were added.
* Added en-IN, en-CA and ja-JP to the SampleApp locale selection menu.
* Added default alert and timer audio data to the SDK SampleApp.  There is no lo
nger a requirement to download these audio files and configure them in the json
configuration file.
* Added support in SDS Reader and AttachmentReader for seeking into the future.
 This allows a reader to move to an index which has not yet arrived in the SDS a
nd poll/block until it arrives.
* Added support for blocking Writers in the SharedDataStream class.
* Changed the default status code sent by MessageRequestObserverInterface::onSen
dCompleted() to SERVER_OTHER_ERROR, and mapped HTTP code 500 to SERVER_INTERNAL_
ERROR_V2.
* Added support for parsing stream duration out of playlists.
* Added a configuration option ("sampleApp":"displayCardsSupported") that allows
 the displaying of display cards to be enabled or disabled.
* Named Timers and Reminders have been updated to fall back to the on-device bac
kground audio sound when cloud urls cannot be accessed or rendered.

**Bug Fixes**
* Removed floating point dependencies from core SDK libraries.
* Fixed bug in SpeechSynthesizer where it's erroneously calling stop more than once.
* Fixed an issue in ContentFetcher where it could hang during destruction until an active GET request completed.
* Fixed a couple of parsing bugs in LibCurlHttpContentFetcher related to case-sensitivity and mime-type handling.
* Fixed a bug where MediaPlayerObserverInterface::onPlaybackResumed() wasn't being called after resuming from a pause with a pending play/resume.
* Fixed a bug in LibCurlContentFetcher where it could error out if data is written to the SDS faster than it is consumed.
* The GStreamer-based MediaPlayer reference implementation now uses the ACL HTTP configured client.
  * An API change has been made to MediaPlayerInterface::setSource(). This method now takes in an optional offset as well to allow for immediately streaming to the offset if possible.
  * Next and Previous buttons now work with Audible.
  * Pandora resume stuttering is addressed.
  * Pausing and resuming Amazon music no longer seeks back to the beginning of the song.
* libcurl CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL option is set to 1 (https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL.html) to avoid crashes  observed in SampleApp.
* Fixed the timing of the PlaybackReportIntervalEvent and PlaybackReportDelayEvent as specified in the directives.
* Fixed potential deadlocks in MediaPlayer during shutdown related to queued callbacks.
* Fixed a crash in MediaPlayer that could occur if the network is disconnected during playback.
* Fixed a bug where music could keep playing while Alexa is speaking.
* Fixed a bug which was causing problems with pause/resume and next/previous with Amazon Music.
* Fixed a bug where music could briefly start playing between speaks.
* Fixed a bug where HLS playlists would stop streaming after the initial playlist had been played to completion.
* Fixed a bug where Audible playback could not advance to the next chapter.
* Fixed some occurrences of SDK entering the IDLE state during the transition between Listening and Speaking states.
* Fixed a bug where PlaybackFinished events were not reporting the correct offset.
  * An API change has been made to MediaPlayerInterface::getOffset().  This method is now required to return the final offset when called after playback has stopped.
* Fixed a problem where AIP was erroneously resetting its state upon getting a cancelDirective() callback.

**Known Issues**
* Capability agent for Notifications is not included in this release.
* `ACL`'s asynchronous receipt of audio attachments may manage resources poorly in scenarios where attachments are received but not consumed.
* GUI cards don't show for Kindle.
* The new SpeechSynthesizerState state values GAINING_FOCUS and LOSING_FOCUS were added as part of a work-around.  The will likely be removed in subsequent releases.
* With the gstreamer-based MediaPlayer, after muting and unmuting, the next item starts playing rather than continuing with the current item.

Andken 2cc16d8cc4 Version 1.2.0 alexa-client-sdk
Changes in this update
* **Enhancements**
  * Updated MediaPlayer to solve stability issues
  * All capability agents were refined to work with the updated MediaPlayer
  * Added the TemplateRuntime capability agent
  * Added the SpeakerManager capability agent
  * Added a configuration option ("sampleApp":"endpoint") that allows the endpoint that SampleApp connects to to be specified without changing code or rebuilding
  * Added very verbose capture of libcurl debug information
  * Added an observer interface to observer audio state changes from AudioPlayer
  * Added support for StreamMetadataExtracted Event. Stream tags found in the stream are represented in JSON and sent to AVS
  * Added to the SampleApp a simple GuiRenderer as an observer to the TemplateRuntime Capability Agent
  * Moved shared libcurl functionality to AVSCommon/Utils
  * Added a CMake option to exclude tests from the "make all" build. Use "cmake <absolute-path-to-source>
  -DACSDK_EXCLUDE_TEST_FROM_ALL=ON" to enable it. When this option is enabled "make unit" and "make integration" still could be used to build and run the tests

* **Bug fixes**:
  * Previously scheduled alerts now play following a restart
  * General stability fixes
  * Bug fix for CertifiedSender blocking forever if the network goes down while it's trying to send a message to AVS
  * Fixes for known issue of Alerts integration tests fail: AlertsTest.UserLongUnrelatedBargeInOnActiveTimer and AlertsTest.handleOneTimerWithVocalStop
  * Attempting to end a tap-to-talk interaction with the tap-to-talk button wouldn't work
  * SharedDataStream could encounter a race condition due to a combination of a blocking Reader and a Writer closing before writing any data
  * Bug-fix for the ordering of notifications within alerts scheduling. This fixes the issue where a local-stop on an alert would also stop a subsequent alert if it were to begin without delay

* **Known Issues**

* Capability agent for Notifications is not included in this release
* Inconsistent playback behavior when resuming content ("Alexa, pause." / "Alexa, resume."). Specifically, handling playback offsets, which causes the content to play from the start. This behavior is also occasionally seen with "Next" /
"Previous".
* `ACL`'s asynchronous receipt of audio attachments may manage resources poorly in scenarios where attachments are received but not consumed.

avramson a62220d544 Version 1.0.1 alexa-client-sdk
Changes in this update
 - Added a fix to the sample app so that the StateSynchronization event is the first that gets sent to AVS.
 - Added a POST_CONNECTED enum to ConnectionStatusObserver.
 - StateSychronizer now automatically sends a StateSynchronization event when it receives a notification that ACL is CONNECTED.
 - Added make install for installing the AVS Device SDK.
 - Added an optional make networkIntegration for integration tests for slow network (only on Linux platforms).
 - Added shutdown management which fully cleans up SDK objects during teardown.
 - Fixed an issue with AudioPlayer barge-in which was preventing subsequent audio from playing.
 - Changed Mediaplayer buffering to reduce stuttering.
 - Known Issues:
   - Connection loss during listening keeps the app in that state even after connection is regained. Pressing ‘s’ unsticks the state.
   - Play/Pause media restarts it from the beginning.
   - SpeechSynthesizer shows wrong UX state during a burst of Speaks.
   - Quitting the sample app while AudioPlayer is playing something causes a segmentation fault.

Mradula Nayak d9a0cb7fe4 Version 1.0 alexa-client-sdk
Changes in this update
 - Added `AudioPlayer` capability agent.
   - Supports iHeartRadio.
 - `StateSynchronizer` has been updated to better enforce that `System.SynchronizeState`is the first Event sent on a connection to AVS.
 - Additional tests have been added to `ACL`.
 - The `Sample App` has been updated with several small fixes and improvements.
 - `ADSL` was updated such that all directives are now blocked while the handling of previous `SpeechSynthesizer.Speak`

  - SynchronizeState
  - ExceptionEncountered
- Implemented the SharedDataStream (SDS) to asynchronously communicate data
  between a local reader and writer.
- Added AudioInputProcessor (AIP), an implementation of a SpeechRecognizer
  capability agent.
- Added the WakeWord Detector (WWD), which recognizes keywords in audio streams.
  v0.3 implements a wrapper for KITT.ai.
- Added a new implementation of AttachmentManager and associated classes for use
  with SDS.
- Updated the ACL to support asynchronously sending audio to AVS.

- Improves the interface of ADSL.
2017-05-05 10:36:44 -07:00
Sanjay Devireddy d849f83194 Some machines are having trouble compiling our SDK, particularly libAVSUtils.so. The issue seems to be that the linker is encountering an error finding a reference to “pthread_create”.
AVSUtils/src/Logger/ThreadIdAsString.cpp, has a static thread_local variable and includes <thread>, and since this file is used indirectly from the ExampleLogger, this issue is showing up as an issue in ExampleLogger.

Currently, ACL and AuthDelegate both find the Threads package and link against in their src/CMakeLists.txt file, so we don't see such issues when creating those libraries. However, AVSUtils does not do this. The fix for this particular issue (https://github.com/alexa/alexa-client-sdk/issues/3) is to find the Threads package and link against it in the AVSUtils library as well, which this commit does. This commit also pulls in the Threads package and links against it in other areas that include <thread> so that we don’t run into this issue down the road by mistake.
