This release marks major improvements in stella, primarily addressing its slowness.
Improvements:
- Replaces filesystem polling with the
watchdoglibrary, which uses OS-specific APIs to monitor the filesystem events. This should yield major speed-ups in big codebases. - Replace its sleeps in the main thread to a trigger-based workflow which are handled by a separate thread - which also opens up infinite retries with the exponential backoff strategy.
- Graceful stopping of the input thread.
Features:
- Failed browser refreshes lead to retries
- Extended browser support to edge and safari
- The new
rc- reload configuration command
Installation:
pipx install stellapy
If you already have it installed:
pipx upgrade stellapy
