This commit is a huge refactor of the websocket module.
The module is really old, and some design choices had to be
re-evaluated.
The WebSocketClient and WebSocketServer classes are now gone, and
WebSocketPeer can act as either client or server.
The WebSocketMultiplayerPeer class is no longer abstract, and implements
the Multiplayer API on top of the lower level WebSocketPeer.
WebSocketPeer is now a "raw" peer, like StreamPeerTCP and StreamPeerTLS,
so it emits no signal, and just needs polling to update its internal
state.
To use it as a client, simply call WebSocketPeer.coonect_to_url, then
frequently poll the peer until STATE_OPEN is reached and then you can
write or read from it, or STATE_CLOSED and then you can check the
disconnect code and reason).
To implement a server instead, a TCPServer must be created, and the
accepted connections needs to be provided to
WebSocketPeer.accept_stream (which will perform the HTTP handshake).
A full example of a WebSocketServer using TLS will be provided in the
demo repository.
This makes it easier to spot syntax errors when editing the
class reference. The schema is referenced locally so validation
can still work offline.
Each class XML's schema conformance is also checked on GitHub Actions.
Removes _networking_ prefix from some methods and members, now that multiplayer has been largely moved out of Node and SceneTree and is seperated into its own set of classes.
Move multiplayer classes to "core/multiplayer" subdir.
Move the RPCConfig and enums (TransferMode, RPCMode) to a separate
file (multiplayer.h), and bind them to the global namespace.
Move the RPC handling code to its own class (RPCManager).
Renames "get_rpc_sender_id" to "get_remote_sender_id".
For the time being we don't support writing a description for those, preferring
having all details in the method's description.
Using self-closing tags saves half the lines, and prevents contributors from
thinking that they should write the argument or return documentation there.
We already removed it from the online docs with #35132.
Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core"
(everything else), which is of limited use.
We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether
in Godot 4.0.
Follow-up to #31925, `<member />` tags just before `</members>` would cause
a parsing issue, and we'd never notice that we're no longer parsing members.
Also added space before closing `/>`.
- Document a few more properties and methods
- Add more information to many classes
- Fix lots of typos and gramar mistakes
- Use [code] tags for parameters consistently
- Use [b] and [i] tags consistently
- Put "Warning:" and "Note:" on their own line to be more visible,
and make them always bold
- Tweak formatting in code examples to be more readable
- Use double quotes consistently
- Add more links to third-party technologies
