# The following help content is also available at https://jmri.org/help/en/html/scripthelp/yaat/YAAT.shtml

# Action Phrase Descriptions:
#       <?? | ??> represent choices
#       <????> require values, normally names or numbers
#       Brackets, [], are optional phrases
#       Text and names are case sensitive.
#
# Start when sensor <sensor name> is <active | inactive>
#       An optional action that defers running the train until the condition has been satisfied.
#       This can also be used to pause a train between runs.
# Assign <long | short> address <dccaddr>[ as <train name>[ in <blockname>]]
#       If a block name is supplied, the optional train name will be used for block tracking
# Loop
#       Marks the end of the one time start up actions, such as the throttle assignment, positioning a train before
#       starting repeating actions, etc.
# Print <message text>
#       Display a message in the script output window or the system console log.  Useful for debugging.
# Set speed to <0 to 1.0>
# Set direction to <forward | reverse>
# Set function key <0 to 28> <on | off>[, wait <n> seconds]
#       Set the function key on or off.  The number can be from 0 to 28.
#       If seconds is greater than zero, the opposite action will be
#       performed after the number of seconds has passed.
# Set turnout <turnout name> <closed | thrown>[, wait <n> seconds]
#       The process will wait for up to 5 seconds for turnout feedback.
#       If seconds is entered and greater than zero, a wait allows the turnout command to complete, capacitors to recharge, etc.
# Set sensor <sensor name> <active | inactive>
#       Can be used to pass status to other trains
# Set block <block name> <occupied | unoccupied | reserved | free>
#       The occupied and unoccupied states are used to simulate train movement.  It works best if a simulation sensor
#       is used in conjunction with an If statement.
#       Reserved and free control the alternate track color.
# Set route <route name>
# Wait for <n> seconds
#       Wait until the time has expired.  Normally used for station stops.
# Wait for sensor <sensor name> to become <active | inactive>
# Wait for block <block name> to become <occupied | unoccupied | reserved | free>
# Wait for signal head <head name> to [not] show <appearance name> [or ...]
#       The appearance names are language specific.  Use the signal head table to get the available appearance names.
# Wait for signal mast <mast name> to [not] display <aspect name> [or ...]
#       Use the signal mast table to get the valid aspect names.  Remember that the names vary based on signal mast type.
# Wait while signal mast <mast name> speed is less than <aspect name> speed
#       Use the signal mast table to get the valid aspect names.  Remember that the names vary based on signal mast type.
# Repeat if sensor <sensor name> is <active | inactive>
#       Skip the remaining steps and start over.  Use the same sensor as Stop with the opposite test.
#       This provides a cleanup section before Stop.
#       Requires that a "Loop" action was included in the action list.
# Stop if sensor <sensor name> is <active | inactive>
#       This action needs to be the last one in the list.
#       If the sensor state matches, the throttle will be released and the script stopped.
#       If it does not, the script will do the sequence of actions again.
#       If the Stop action is missing, the script will run forever, until the script thread is killed, or JMRI is stopped.

# -- If / Else / Endif support --
#   The "If" and "Endif" actions are required.  The "Else" action is optional and is used to separate the true and false actions.
#   Nesting is supported (Inspired by Bill Fitch).
# If sensor <sensor name> is <active | inactive>
# If block <block name> is <occupied | unoccupied | reserved | free>
# If signal head <head name> does [not] show <appearance> [or ...]
# If signal mast <mast name> does [not] display <aspect> [or ...]
# If speed for signal mast <mast name> is <eq | ne | lt | gt | le | ge> <speed name>
#       For information on speed names, look at the JMRI install location: xml/signals/signalSpeeds.xml
# Else
# Endif

# -- GoSub / Sub / EndSub support (Inspired by Bill Fitch) --
#    The sub routines are placed at the end of an embedded list or text file.  The sub routines cannot
#    be nested, but a sub routine can call another sub routine.  The sub routine name cannot have spaces.
#    Control returns to the statement after the CallSub when the sub routine is finished.
# CallSub <subname>
# Sub <subname>
# EndSub <subname>

# -- Dispatcher Support (Created by Bill Fitch)
# Dispatch using file <traininfo.xml>[, type <USER, value <dccAddress> | ROSTER, value <roster entry name> | OPERATIONS, value <train name>>]
#   The Dispatcher train info filename is required.
#   The optional USER, ROSTER and OPERATIONS keywords can override the train info content.
#   Examples:
#     Dispatch using file routefrom1-2.xml   (uses the train info xml file set up by "Save Train info" in "Create New Train" in dispatcher)
#     Dispatch using file routefrom1-2.xml, type USER, value 3   (uses train with dcc address 3 instead of the train in the xml file
#     Dispatch using file routefrom1-2.xml, type ROSTER, value diesel104   (uses diesel104 from roster instead of the train in the xml file)
#   The <traininfo.xml> file will have been generated by dispatcher prior to running YAAT and will have been placed in
#   preference:dispatcher/traininfo by dispatcher.  Note: "preference:" is the keyword for the user files location.

# -- Compiled Trains
#   If the saveYAATcompiles option is true, a compiled train will be used instead of doing the compile step.
#   A compiled train is located at the preference:yaatp/<trainname> directory.  When YAAT is started, the date/time for
#   each train source file is checked.  If it is greater than the compiled train, if any, the compile will occur.  Otherwise the
#   compiled version will be loaded.  Embedded trains are always compiled.

# -- Custom Extensions
#   An extension is a separate Python file that contains additional actions.
#   Each action requires a "do<name>" method (def) and a "compile<name>" method (def).
#   The format of an action name is verb_noun, such as Set_memory...  The typical space for built-in actions is replaced with an underscore.
#   The custom actions are added to the customExtensions dictionary.  The key is the file and the data is a list of actions.

# Usage
#   Copy the script from the JMRI install location to your user files location.  See "Help >> Locations".
#   Change the log level from 0 to 1 through 4 if log output is desired.  4 provides maximun detail.
#   Optionally enter a valid sensor name in the statusSensor variable.  This is used to provide feedback to JMRI.
#   Optionally enter a valid sensor name in the masterSensor variable.  This is used to stop all threads.
#   Define the actions for each train.  The actions can be embedded in the script or placed in an external file.
#      External file:  Create a text file with one action per line.  Blank lines and lines starting with a comment character, #, are ok.
#                      Add the train name and file name to the "trainList".  The file name can be the complete
#                      path or the file name can include a keyword for the location, such as "preference:"
#                      which is replaced by the path to the user files location at run time.
#      File of files:  In addition to modifying the script's trainList, it is possible to create a text file that
#                      has the same format as the trainList.  If the file exists, its contents will be added to the
#                      trainList.  The file is located in the yaat directory in the user files location.  The filename is
#                      TrainList.txt.  This file is optional.
#      Embedded: The actions are added to a Python list.  Each action is enclosed in single or double quotes
#                and end with a comma at the end of the line.  The embedded method requires a unique block
#                of code at the end of the script for each embedded action list.
