Squash of the classicapi_next branch (10 commits). ClassicAPI is now a hard
requirement, and the Lua-side reimplementations it supersedes are gone:
net -1087 lines across 12 files.
Macro display: resolved macro actions are published through
C_Macro.SetMacroDisplay, so the client draws macro buttons and the
action-bar function overrides this addon used to install are removed.
Ownership is per macro -- ClassicAPI keeps the macros we never claim.
Auras and timing: ClassicAPI is the source of truth for non-player aura
timing via the positional C_UnitAuras.UnitAura, replacing the write-only
buff tracking tables and the overflow-slot fallback.
Cleanup: the hasPfUI76 flag and the pfUI 7.6 branches it gated, two
silently-shadowed code paths, and per-call allocations in the event and
publish paths (SPELL_CAST_EVENT merged). Packaging moves to
brues-code/packager@vCAPI.
Macro syntax: a clause may carry a leading run of [group] blocks sharing
one action, Blizzard-style -- groups are OR'd, first pass wins, and []
always passes. The ;-separated form is unchanged and mixes freely. @focus
clauses with no focus set now fail quietly instead of printing
"Invalid target" on the way past.
Document the audit results in the backlog: the do-not-migrate traps
(C_UnitAuras expirationTime player-only, GetShapeshiftFormID != bar
index, DBC cast time base-only, UnitXP range superiority, nampower
FindPlayerItemSlot, [known]/[usable] richer than ClassicAPI), the wins
already done, and the marginal follow-ups. Also correct the stale
"graceful fallback" cross-cutting note to the mandatory/no-fallbacks
policy.
GetActionInfo:
- Add ClassicAPI.GetActionInfo wrapper; rewrite GetActionButtonInfo
(Generic.lua) to use it and resolve names via GetSpellRecField /
GetItem / GetMacroInfo, replacing the per-slot GameTooltip scan +
texture heuristic. Powers reactive-ability slot detection.
- Delete the dead SuperWoW-GetActionText copy of GetActionButtonInfo.
Spell IDs in the index:
- IndexSpells now uses ClassicAPI GetSpellInfo(slot, bookType), whose
10th return is the spellID, so every Spells entry carries .id (one
call also replaces GetSpellName + GetSpellTexture).
Dynamic pfUI action-button icons (pairs with the pfUI fork change):
- GameTooltip.SetAction hook renders spells via ClassicAPI
SetSpellByID(spell.id) instead of SetSpell(spellSlot, bookType) +
manual rank text. Items stay location-based (instance data).
- Drop the redundant GetActionSpellSlot -> GetSpellCooldown cooldown
shim in the pfUI handler; pfUI now routes through the hooked
GetActionCooldown when it defers macro scanning to us.
ClassicAPI is now required, not optional. The load-time requirement
check warns when it's missing (Core.lua), the same as Nampower/UnitXP,
and ClassicAPI-backed code calls the API directly with no fallbacks.
- ClassicAPI.lua: drop the HasUnitAuras/HasUnitSpeed/HasIsFalling
capability gates and pcall hedging; wrappers call C_UnitAuras /
GetUnitSpeed / IsFalling directly. Keep IsAvailable (used by the
requirement check) and the version helpers.
- [moving]: ClassicAPI GetUnitSpeed is the only source. Removed the
MonkeySpeed integration, the Nampower PlayerIsMoving branch, and the
100 Hz position-tracking buffer in Core.lua's OnUpdate (with its
POS_TRACK_INTERVAL constant and UnitPosition upvalue). Removed the
now-dead speed==nil guards and WarnNoSpeedSource.
- README: ClassicAPI moved to Required; MonkeySpeed dropped from
Supported Addons.
- docs/CLASSICAPI-TODO.md: record the mandatory/no-fallbacks policy.
Introduce ClassicAPI.lua, a feature-detection layer for the ClassicAPI
client mod that mirrors NampowerAPI's HasMinimumVersion pattern
(IsAvailable / HasMinimumVersion / HasUnitAuras). UnitHasDispelType
scans a unit's auras via C_UnitAuras and reports the dispel type,
scanning debuffs or buffs based on a helpful flag.
Add conditionals backed by it:
- Debuff side (defensive cleanse): [magic] [curse] [disease] [poison]
[dispellable] + negations
- Buff side (offensive dispel/strip): [magicbuff] [dispellablebuff]
+ negations
All are no-arg booleans, default to @target (honor @unit), and degrade
gracefully without ClassicAPI: positive checks return false, negated
return true, since vanilla cannot read aura dispel types. The existing
ValidateAura path is untouched. MacroErrorChecker auto-accepts them via
the Keywords table; they're registered in BOOLEAN_CONDITIONALS so they
parse as flags. Loaded after NampowerAPI in the TOC.
Document opportunities to use ClassicAPI (modern C_* API backport for
the 1.12 client) in the addon: C_UnitAuras for target aura/dispel-type
conditionals, GetWeaponEnchantInfo enchant IDs for poison/imbue checks,
GetUnitSpeed to drop the MonkeySpeed dependency, plus C_Spell, C_Timer,
UnitGUID, native focus, and Tier-3 items.
Each entry cites API.md line refs and the addon files it touches, and
notes the cross-cutting requirement to feature-detect with fallback
(mirroring the nampower HasMinimumVersion pattern).
