@page game_event_handler GameEventHandler
## Overview
`GameEventHandler` is the central coordinator for **game-wide commands and events**.
It acts as the bridge between the networking layer (protobuf messages received from
the server) and the local game model and UI.
Unlike `PlayerEventHandler`, which is responsible for player-scoped state and zones,
`GameEventHandler` handles:
- Global game flow (turns, phases, host changes)
- Player and spectator lifecycle events
- Chat and logging events
- Dispatching incoming events to the appropriate subsystem
- Sending locally initiated commands to the server
In short, it is the **top-level event dispatcher** for an active game.
---
## Responsibilities
`GameEventHandler` has four primary responsibilities:
### 1. Sending game-wide commands
UI actions that affect the game as a whole (e.g. advancing the turn, changing phases,
sending chat messages) are translated into protobuf commands and sent to the server
via this class.
Examples include:
- Advancing or reversing the turn order
- Conceding or unconceding
- Changing the active phase
- Leaving the game
- Sending chat messages
These commands are wrapped in `PendingCommand` instances so their lifecycle and
responses can be tracked.
---
### 2. Processing incoming game events
Incoming server messages arrive as a `GameEventContainer`.
`GameEventHandler` is responsible for:
- Emitting lifecycle signals before and after processing
- Dispatching each event to the correct handler
- Forwarding player-scoped events to `PlayerEventHandler` instances
- Handling spectator-only and game-global events directly
This design keeps networking concerns isolated from game logic and UI code.
---
### 3. Managing global game state transitions
Certain events affect the entire game state and require coordinated updates across
multiple subsystems. Examples include:
- Full game state synchronization
- Active player or phase changes
- Game host changes
- Game closure
- Turn reversal
`GameEventHandler` ensures these events are processed in a consistent order and
that all interested systems are notified via Qt signals.
---
### 4. Emitting UI and logging signals
Rather than directly manipulating UI widgets, `GameEventHandler` emits
high-level signals that are consumed by:
- Game widgets
- Player and spectator lists
- Message and event logs
- Status indicators (ready state, deck selection, connection state)
This keeps the handler independent of concrete UI implementations.
---
## Relationship to PlayerEventHandler
`GameEventHandler` and `PlayerEventHandler` work together but have distinct roles:
| GameEventHandler | PlayerEventHandler |
|------------------|--------------------|
| Global game state | Per-player state |
| Turn / phase flow | Zones and cards |
| Player join/leave | Player actions |
| Spectator events | Player-specific events |
| Chat dispatch | Card and zone updates |
When a server event is associated with a specific player, `GameEventHandler`
routes it to the corresponding `PlayerEventHandler`. Events without a player
context are handled directly.
---
## Event Processing Flow
A typical incoming event flow looks like this:
1. `AbstractClient` receives a `GameEventContainer`
2. `GameEventHandler::processGameEventContainer()` is called
3. `containerProcessingStarted()` is emitted
4. Each event is:
- Handled directly **or**
- Forwarded to a `PlayerEventHandler`
5. Logging and UI signals are emitted as needed
6. `containerProcessingDone()` is emitted
This structured flow makes it easy to:
- Suppress UI updates during replays
- Handle reconnections cleanly
- Detect flood protection or error states
---
## Command Lifecycle
Outgoing commands follow a similar structured path:
1. UI action triggers a `handle*()` method
2. A protobuf command is constructed
3. The command is wrapped in a `PendingCommand`
4. `sendGameCommand()` sends it to the server
5. `commandFinished()` receives the response
6. Errors or flood conditions are handled centrally
This approach avoids duplicated error handling across UI code.
---
## Design Goals
`GameEventHandler` is designed to be:
- **Centralized** one entry point for all game-wide events
- **UI-agnostic** communicates via signals, not widgets
- **Predictable** well-defined event ordering and lifecycle
- **Composable** works in concert with `PlayerEventHandler`
- **Testable** logic is separated from rendering

@page player_event_handler PlayerEventHandler
## Overview
`PlayerEventHandler` is responsible for applying **player-scoped game events**
to a single `Player` instance. These events modify the players board state,
zones, cards, counters, arrows, and associated UI and logging output.
Each `PlayerEventHandler` instance is bound **1:1 to a Player** and is invoked
exclusively by @ref GameEventHandler after basic routing and validation of
incoming server events.
This class represents the lowest-level authoritative application of game state
changes on the client.
---
## Scope and Authority
`PlayerEventHandler` operates under the following guarantees:
- All incoming events are **authoritative** and already validated by the server
- Events refer to valid players, zones, and card identifiers
- Ordering is guaranteed by the server and preserved by `GameEventHandler`
As a result, the handler does **not** perform rule validation or permission
checks. Its responsibility is to *apply* state, not *decide* legality.
---
## Responsibilities
### 1. Applying player-specific state changes
The primary responsibility of `PlayerEventHandler` is to mutate player-owned
state, including:
- Cards (`CardItem`)
- Zones (`CardZoneLogic`)
- Counters (card-level and player-level)
- Attachments and arrows
- Zone configuration flags (reveal / peek behavior)
Many handlers update both **logical state** and **visual/UI state** in tandem.
---
### 2. Coordinating complex card movement
Some events—most notably card movement—require coordinated updates across
multiple systems. For example, `eventMoveCard()`:
- Removes the card from the source zone
- Updates ownership, visibility, and identity
- Handles attachments and arrow cleanup
- Emits undo-draw or move logs
- Inserts the card into the destination zone
- Updates menus, hover state, and graphics
This makes `PlayerEventHandler` intentionally stateful and tightly coupled to
the board implementation.
---
### 3. Emitting logging signals
Rather than writing directly to logs or widgets, `PlayerEventHandler` emits
structured Qt signals describing *what happened*, including:
- Chat messages
- Card movement
- Shuffles and randomization
- Reveals and peeks
- Counter and attribute changes
These signals are consumed by logging systems and UI components, keeping
presentation concerns out of the handler.
Logging signals may be emitted **before or after mutation**, depending on
whether later changes would invalidate log data (e.g. card identity).
---
### 4. Handling cross-player interactions
Although bound to a single player, some events necessarily affect other
players state, including:
- Moving cards between players
- Attaching cards to another players permanents
- Creating arrows targeting other players or cards
In these cases, `PlayerEventHandler` performs the minimal required mutation
while respecting ownership boundaries enforced elsewhere.
---
## Event Dispatch Model
`PlayerEventHandler` exposes a single public entry point:
- `processGameEvent()`
This method:
1. Receives a generic `GameEvent`
2. Switches on `GameEventType`
3. Extracts the appropriate protobuf extension
4. Forwards the event to a typed handler
This keeps the event routing centralized and makes it easy to audit coverage
when new game events are introduced.
Unhandled events are logged as warnings.
---
## Event Categories
For clarity, event handlers are grouped conceptually into:
- **Chat and randomization**
- Chat messages
- Shuffles
- Dice rolls
- **Arrows and targeting**
- Create / delete arrows
- **Card and token creation**
- Token generation
- Counter creation
- **Card attributes and counters**
- Tapped state
- Power/toughness
- Annotations
- Card- and player-level counters
- **Zone-level operations**
- Card movement
- Zone dumps
- Card destruction
- Attachments
- **Draw and reveal**
- Drawing cards
- Reveals, peeks, and reveal windows
- **Zone configuration**
- Always-reveal and always-look-at-top-card flags
This grouping mirrors the structure of the header file and reflects the
conceptual responsibilities of the class.
---
## Relationship to GameEventHandler
`PlayerEventHandler` is never instantiated or invoked directly by UI code.
Instead:
1. `GameEventHandler` receives a `GameEventContainer`
2. Player-scoped events are routed to the appropriate `PlayerEventHandler`
3. Global or spectator events are handled elsewhere
This separation keeps game-wide logic decoupled from player board state and
makes reconnection and replay handling simpler.
---
## Design Intent
`PlayerEventHandler` is designed to be:
- **Authoritative** applies server state exactly as received
- **Stateful** maintains consistency across cards, zones, and UI
- **Explicit** one handler per event type
- **UI-aware** updates views and menus as part of state mutation
- **Auditable** easy to trace what code handles which event

@page protocol_command_container CommandContainer (Protocol Concept)
@section cc_overview Overview
CommandContainer is the client-to-server message envelope used for all
client requests in the Cockatrice protocol.
Every client-initiated action is transmitted as a CommandContainer.
The server never sends CommandContainer messages.
This is a protocol-level abstraction and should not be confused with the
generated protobuf accessors or wire-level encoding.
@section cc_lifecycle Lifetime and Ownership
- CommandContainers are created by clients and consumed by the server.
- Each container represents one logical request.
- Containers are processed atomically and in order of arrival.
A container may generate:
- Exactly one RESPONSE message, and
- Zero or more EVENT messages.
@section cc_cmd_id Command Identification
The @c cmd_id field is a client-assigned identifier used to correlate
responses with requests.
Rules:
- @c cmd_id is optional but strongly recommended
- The server echoes @c cmd_id only in RESPONSE messages
- EVENT messages are never associated with a @c cmd_id
The server does not enforce uniqueness of @c cmd_id values.
@section cc_context Command Context
Certain command domains require additional context:
- Room commands require @c room_id
- Game commands require @c game_id
Context fields are ignored for command domains that do not require them.
If a required context field is missing or invalid, the server responds with
@c RespContextError.
@section cc_invariants Invariants
The following rules are enforced by the server:
- Exactly one command domain must be populated
- Commands may be batched only within the same domain
- Context fields must match the active command domain
Violations of these rules result in @c RespInvalidCommand.
@section cc_domains Command Domains
CommandContainer supports the following mutually exclusive command domains:
- Session commands
- Authentication
- User discovery
- Private messaging
- Room commands
- Chat
- Game creation
- Room membership management
- Game commands
- In-game actions
- State mutations
- Moderator commands
- User moderation
- Room moderation
- Admin commands
- Server administration
@section cc_batching Command Batching
A CommandContainer may contain multiple commands of the same domain.
Batching guarantees:
- Commands are processed in the order they appear in the container
- All commands in the batch share the same context
Partial failure behavior is implementation-defined and may vary by domain.
@section cc_dispatch Dispatch
CommandContainers are dispatched by
Server_ProtocolHandler::processCommandContainer().
Dispatch is performed by inspecting which command domain is populated.
Only the first populated domain is considered.
@section cc_errors Error Handling
Common error responses include:
- @c RespLoginNeeded client is not authenticated
- @c RespInvalidCommand malformed container or invalid domain usage
- @c RespContextError missing or invalid room/game context
@section cc_related Related Concepts

# Game Commands Reference
This document describes game-level commands (`GameCommandType`) and how they are
handled across the server and client.
Flow overview:
Client
→ GameCommand
→ Server command handler (`Server_Player`, `Server_AbstractParticipant`, or `Server_Game`)
→ GameEvent(s)
→ PlayerEventHandler::event*
## Command Mapping
### `GAME_SAY` (1002)
**Purpose:** Send a chat message during a game.
**Server:**

---
### `DRAW_CARDS` (1006)
**Purpose:** Draw cards from deck.
**Server:**
- `Server_Player::cmdDrawCards`
- Rejects if the game has not started or the player has conceded
- Moves cards from deck to hand
- Sends full card information privately to the drawing player
- Sends only the draw count to all other players
- Tracks drawn cards for undo
- Updates revealed-top-card state when necessary
- Emits `Event_DrawCards`
**Client:**
- `PlayerEventHandler::eventDrawCards`
- Moves cards from library to hand
- Reveals card identities only when included in the event

@page developer_reference_protocol_overview Protocol (Overview)
# Cockatrice Server Protocol Overview
## Purpose
This document describes the Cockatrice client/server protocol as implemented
by the Cockatrice server. It is intended for developers implementing clients
or modifying the server.
The protocol is **stateful**, **event-driven**, and **asynchronous**.
---
## High-Level Properties
- Encoding: Google Protocol Buffers
- Transport: TCP or WebSocket (transport-agnostic at protocol level)
- Directionality:
- Clients send `CommandContainer`
- Server sends `ServerMessage`
- Responses and events are interleaved
- Clients must handle unsolicited events at any time
---
## Message Envelopes
### Client → Server: CommandContainer
A `CommandContainer` represents one logical client request.
Protocol invariants:
- Exactly one command domain may be used per container
- Multiple commands of the same domain may be batched
- Context is provided via `room_id` or `game_id` when required
Command domains:
- Session commands
- Room commands
- Game commands
- Moderator commands
- Admin commands
---
### Server → Client: ServerMessage
A `ServerMessage` represents either:
- A response to a command (`RESPONSE`)
- An unsolicited event (`*_EVENT`)
Protocol invariants:
- Events may be delivered before or after responses
- Responses reference the original command via `cmd_id`
- Events are never correlated to a command
---
## Asynchronous Model
Clients MUST NOT assume request/response ordering.
Example valid sequence:
1. Client sends JOIN_ROOM
2. Server sends room chat history events
3. Server sends room join notifications
4. Server sends JOIN_ROOM response
---
## Versioning
The server reports a protocol version during connection initialization.
Clients MUST verify compatibility before sending commands.

@page protocol_response Response (Protocol Concept)
## Overview
`Response` is the server-to-client message sent immediately after a command, using the same `cmd_id` to link to the originating command.
It provides a `Response::ResponseCode` and optionally a `Response::ResponseType` to guide client handling.
## Fields
- **cmd_id** (`uint64`, required) — Command ID this response corresponds to
- **response_code** (`Response::ResponseCode`, optional) — Outcome of the command
## Response Codes
All possible outcome codes are defined in Response::ResponseCode
These describe the result of the command, e.g., success, failure, or special conditions like bans or registration requirements.
## Response Types
Responses are routed according to Response::ResponseType
Each `ResponseType` corresponds to a high-level category, like `JOIN_ROOM` or `DECK_UPLOAD`.
## Extensions
- Protobuf extensions from 100 to max are reserved for future use

@page protocol_server_message ServerMessage (Protocol Concept)
## Overview
`ServerMessage` is the server-to-client message envelope used for all
communication originating from the Cockatrice server.
The server never sends `CommandContainer` messages, and clients never send
`ServerMessage` messages.
A `ServerMessage` represents either:
- A direct response to a client command, or
- An unsolicited event emitted by the server
This document describes `ServerMessage` as a protocol-level concept.
It should not be confused with generated protobuf accessors or wire-level
encoding details.
---
## Lifetime and Delivery
`ServerMessage` instances are emitted by the server and delivered
asynchronously to clients.
Delivery guarantees:
- Messages are delivered in the order sent by the server
- Messages may be delivered at any time
- Events may be delivered before or after responses
Clients **must** be prepared to handle `ServerMessage` objects at all times,
regardless of pending requests.
---
## Message Type
Each `ServerMessage` contains **exactly one payload**, identified by the
`message_type` field.
The following message types are supported:
- `RESPONSE`
- `SESSION_EVENT`
- `ROOM_EVENT`
- `GAME_EVENT_CONTAINER`
A message containing multiple payloads or an unknown type is considered
malformed.
---
## RESPONSE
`RESPONSE` messages are direct replies to client-issued `CommandContainer`
messages.
Characteristics:
- Contain a `Response` payload
- Echo the client-assigned `cmd_id`
- Indicate success or failure of the request
A single `CommandContainer` results in **at most one** `RESPONSE`.
`RESPONSE` messages may be preceded or followed by event messages.
---
## Events
Event messages are unsolicited notifications emitted by the server.
Event message types include:
- `SESSION_EVENT`
- `ROOM_EVENT`
- `GAME_EVENT_CONTAINER`
Event messages:
- Are not correlated to a specific client command
- Do not include a `cmd_id`
- May be delivered at any time
Clients **must** process events independently of responses.
---
## Event Scopes
### Session Events
Session events are global to the client session and may include:
- Server notifications
- Private messages
- User status updates
---
### Room Events
Room events are scoped to a specific room and are delivered only to clients
currently present in that room.
---
### Game Events
Game events are scoped to a specific game and are delivered only to
participating clients.
Game events are grouped within a `GameEventContainer` to allow batching.
---
## Event Batching
Some `ServerMessage` types may contain multiple logical events.
- `GameEventContainer` may batch multiple game events
- Other event types represent a single logical event
Clients must process all contained events **in order**.
---
## Error Semantics
Errors are communicated **exclusively** via `RESPONSE` messages.
Event messages are never used to signal command failure.
Common error responses include:
- `RespInvalidCommand`
- `RespLoginNeeded`
- `RespContextError`
- `RespChatFlood`
---
## Related Concepts
- CommandContainer
- Client State Machine
- Response
---
## Reference Proto Definition
```proto
message ServerMessage {
enum MessageType {
RESPONSE = 0;
SESSION_EVENT = 1;
GAME_EVENT_CONTAINER = 2;
ROOM_EVENT = 3;
}
optional MessageType message_type = 1;
optional Response response = 2;
optional SessionEvent session_event = 3;
optional GameEventContainer game_event_container = 4;
optional RoomEvent room_event = 5;
}

# Doxygen filter for Google Protocol Buffers .proto files.
# This script converts .proto files into C++ style ones
# and prints the output to standard output.
#
# version 0.8-beta OSI
#
# How to enable this filter in Doxygen:
# 1. Generate Doxygen configuration file with command 'doxygen -g <filename>'
# e.g. doxygen -g doxyfile
# 2. In the Doxygen configuration file, find FILE_PATTERNS and add *.proto
# FILE_PATTERNS = *.proto
# 3. In the Doxygen configuration file, find EXTENSION_MAPPING and add proto=C++
# EXTENSION_MAPPING = proto=C++
# 4. In the Doxygen configuration file, find INPUT_FILTER and add this script
# INPUT_FILTER = "python proto2cpp.py"
# 5. Run Doxygen with the modified configuration
# doxygen doxyfile
