Version 0.11.1 Release

This micro release increases the minimum required version of pandas to ensure consistent operation of the read_excel command. The AppVeyor build process is also updated.

Version 0.11.0 Release

The highlight of this release is the ability to add a simulation from one DataPool object into another and the ability to remove a simulation from a DataPool object.

Detailed changes for this release are as follows:

Added

• Added the ability to import simulations from one DataPool into another, with the Controller.import_simulation method. If a DataPool entry with matching value already exists in the destination pool, the new simulation uses that entry rather than create new one.
• Added the ability to remove simulations from a DataPool with the Controller.remove_simulation method.
• Structure subclasses can now implement an equals method to determine if data values are equal.

Changed

• When creating new simulations with the Controller class, contiguous data states with no label are compacted into a single state.

Version 0.10.2 Hotfix

Hotfix to correct bug when converting excel DDS files to Yaml format

The following changes were made:

Added

• Added test of xl_to_data_yaml

Fixed

• Fixed incorrect use of Dumper class in yaml.safe_dump in xl_to_data_yaml.

Version 0.10.1 Release

Minor update to improve security for YAML file loading.

The following changes were made:

Changed

• Added Loader and Dumper arguments to pyyaml calls as required by pyyaml
  version 5.1 to improve safety.

Version 0.10.0 Release

This release coincides with the release of DTOcean 2.0.

The following changes were made:

Added

• Add gitignore.
• Add change log.
• Add Database.execute_transaction method which will commit a query immediately
  without returning results.
• Add Sequencer.refresh_interfaces and Hub.refresh_interface to replace
  interfaces in Hubs. Useful if interfaces have gone stale after saving.
• Add create_pool_subset method to DataStorage class. Given a pool and
  datastate, this creates a new pool and datastate containing just the variables
  in the datastate.
• Added create_merged_state method to the Loader class. By default, this
  generates a merged pseudo state from a given simulation unless the simulation
  already has one stored.
• Added compatibility for loading pandas data from version prior to 0.20 when
  using version 0.20 or greater.
• Interfaces which do not import properly can now be allowed to skip if
  the warn_import flag is set in Socket.discover_interfaces or Sequencer.
• Added conda requirements file for developers that doesn't include any DTOcean
  packages (requirements-conda-dev.txt).
• Added test module, which contains SPT interface example, which as been added
  to the README.

Changed

• For pipelines, changed labelling of inputs for one interface that appear in a
  previous interface to say "overwritten" rather than "unavailable".
• In DataStorage._convert_box_to_data will catch errors and pass with a warning
  when unpickling, if the warn_unpickle flag is True.
• In DataStorage._convert_data_to_box will catch errors and pass with a warning
  when saving, if the warn_save flag is True.
• In DataStorage._make_data allow data not in the data catalogue to pass with a
  warning if the warn_missing flag is True.
• Modify add_datastate in the Controller class so that it can take Data objects
  as the variable values, if the use_objects flag is set to True.
• Updated API for pandas.read_excel
• Moved the add_datastate method from the Controller to the Loader class.

Fixed

• Removed unnecessary psycopg2 import
• Fixed bug in FileInterface.check_path
• Ensure SerialBox is replaced if encountering unknown data identifier when
  deserializing a data pool.
• Fixed bug for Hub.get_next_scheduled when no interfaces are scheduled. Now
  returns None in this case.
