Failed to load 20.2.0 about kodi-skill

[scottsweb]

Also have some trouble with loading this skill in 20.2.x:

tail /var/log/mycroft/skills.log -n 1000 | grep kodi

The settings.json file doesn't exist after fresh install so perhaps that is the problem. I will see if I can get it started.

I created a faked settings.json file and now get this error:

mycroft.skills.skill_loader:_create_skill_instance:249 | Skill initialization failed with AttributeError("'dict' object has no attribute 'set_changed_callback'")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/mycroft/mycroft/skills/skill_loader.py", line 243, in _create_skill_instance
    self.instance.initialize()
  File "/opt/mycroft/skills/kodi-skill.pcwii/__init__.py", line 64, in initialize
    self.settings.set_changed_callback(self.on_websettings_changed)
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'set_changed_callback'

So there has perhaps been a slight API change for skills.

I am experiencing the same problem. If you need someone to test any new developments, let me know.

@Nyndroth, @scottsweb, @tempuser0012 Thanks for the info. There was a breaking change in 20.2 that changed the syntax of the 'set_changed_callback' (basically a notification if the web settings are updated. I have corrected this and it should work as expected.

Thanks, will give it a test.
