Blocked Modules - Complete Summary

Last Updated: 2025-11-14 Status: ✅ All blocked modules properly disabled

---

Summary

All modules with known compilation or linking issues have been:

1. ✅ Blocked in manifest with documented reasons
2. ✅ Disabled in .env (set to 0)
3. ✅ Excluded from build via module state generation

Blocked Modules (8 Total)

Build Failures - Compilation Errors (3)

1. mod-azerothshard (MODULE_AZEROTHSHARD)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: Compilation Error Issue: Method name mismatch

Error:

fatal error: no member named 'getLevel' in 'Player'; did you mean 'GetLevel'?
if (req <= pl->getLevel())
              ^~~~~~~~
              GetLevel

Root Cause: Module uses lowercase method names instead of AzerothCore's PascalCase convention

Fix Required: Update all method calls to use correct casing

---

2. mod-challenge-modes (MODULE_CHALLENGE_MODES)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: Compilation Error Issue: Override signature mismatch

Error:

fatal error: only virtual member functions can be marked 'override'
void OnGiveXP(Player* player, uint32& amount, Unit* /*victim*/, uint8 /*xpSource*/) override

Root Cause: Method signature doesn't match base class - likely API change in AzerothCore

Fix Required: Update to match current PlayerScript hook signatures

---

3. mod-quest-count-level (MODULE_LEVEL_GRANT)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: Compilation Error Issue: Uses removed API

Details: Uses ConfigMgr::GetBoolDefault which was removed from modern AzerothCore

Fix Required: Update to use current configuration API

---

Build Failures - Linker Errors (2)

4. mod-ahbot (MODULE_AHBOT)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: Linker Error Issue: Missing script loader function

Error:

undefined reference to 'Addmod_ahbotScripts()'

Root Cause: ModulesLoader expects Addmod_ahbotScripts() but function not defined

Alternative: ✅ Use MODULE_LUA_AH_BOT=1 (Lua version works)

---

5. azerothcore-lua-multivendor (MODULE_MULTIVENDOR)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: Linker Error Issue: Missing script loader function

Error:

undefined reference to 'Addazerothcore_lua_multivendorScripts()'

Root Cause: Module may be Lua-only but marked as C++ module

Fix Required: Check module type in manifest or implement C++ loader

---

Known API Incompatibilities (3)

6. mod-pocket-portal (MODULE_POCKET_PORTAL)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: C++20 Requirement Issue: Requires std::format support

Details: Module uses C++20 features not available in current build environment

Fix Required: Either upgrade compiler or refactor to use compatible C++ version

---

7. StatBooster (MODULE_STATBOOSTER)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: API Mismatch Issue: Override signature mismatch on OnLootItem

Details: Hook signature doesn't match current AzerothCore API

Fix Required: Update to match current OnLootItem hook signature

---

8. DungeonRespawn (MODULE_DUNGEON_RESPAWN)

Status: 🔴 BLOCKED Category: API Mismatch Issue: Override signature mismatch on OnBeforeTeleport

Details: Hook signature doesn't match current AzerothCore API

Fix Required: Update to match current OnBeforeTeleport hook signature

---

Working Alternatives

Some blocked modules have working alternatives:

Blocked Module	Working Alternative	Status
mod-ahbot (C++)	MODULE_LUA_AH_BOT=1	✅ Available

---

.env Configuration

All blocked modules are disabled:

# Build Failures - Compilation
MODULE_AZEROTHSHARD=0          # Method name mismatch
MODULE_CHALLENGE_MODES=0       # Override signature mismatch
MODULE_LEVEL_GRANT=0           # Removed API usage

# Build Failures - Linker
MODULE_AHBOT=0                 # Missing script function (use lua version)
MODULE_MULTIVENDOR=0           # Missing script function

# API Incompatibilities
MODULE_POCKET_PORTAL=0         # C++20 requirement
MODULE_STATBOOSTER=0           # Hook signature mismatch
MODULE_DUNGEON_RESPAWN=0       # Hook signature mismatch

Module Statistics

Total Modules in Manifest: ~93 Blocked Modules: 8 (8.6%) Available Modules: 85 (91.4%)

Breakdown by Category:

• 🔴 Compilation Errors: 3 modules
• 🔴 Linker Errors: 2 modules
• 🔴 API Incompatibilities: 3 modules

---

Verification Status

✅ All checks passed:

• ✅ All blocked modules have status: "blocked" in manifest
• ✅ All blocked modules have documented block_reason
• ✅ All blocked modules are disabled in .env (=0)
• ✅ Module state regenerated excluding blocked modules
• ✅ Build will not attempt to compile blocked modules

---

Build Process

With all problematic modules blocked, the build should proceed cleanly:

# 1. Clean any previous build artifacts
docker compose down
rm -rf local-storage/source/build

# 2. Module state is already generated (excluding blocked modules)
# Verify: cat local-storage/modules/modules.env | grep MODULES_ENABLED

# 3. Build
./build.sh --yes

Expected Result: Clean build with 85 working modules

For Module Developers

If you want to help fix these modules:

Quick Fixes (1-2 hours each):

1. mod-azerothshard: Search/replace getLevel() → GetLevel() and similar
2. mod-level-grant: Replace ConfigMgr::GetBoolDefault with current API

Medium Fixes (4-8 hours each):

3. mod-challenge-modes: Update OnGiveXP signature to match current API
4. StatBooster: Update OnLootItem signature
5. DungeonRespawn: Update OnBeforeTeleport signature

Complex Fixes (16+ hours each):

6. mod-ahbot: Debug why script loader function is missing or use Lua version
7. mod-multivendor: Determine if module should be Lua-only
8. mod-pocket-portal: Refactor C++20 features to C++17 or update build environment

---

Testing After Fixes

If a module is fixed upstream:

# 1. Update the module repository
cd local-storage/staging/modules/mod-name
git pull

# 2. Update manifest (remove block)
# Edit config/module-manifest.json:
# Change: "status": "blocked"
# To: "status": "active"

# 3. Enable in .env
# Change: MODULE_NAME=0
# To: MODULE_NAME=1

# 4. Clean rebuild
docker compose down
rm -rf local-storage/source/build
./build.sh --yes

---

Maintenance

This document should be updated when:

• Modules are fixed and unblocked
• New problematic modules are discovered
• AzerothCore API changes affect more modules
• Workarounds or alternatives are found
