| 1 | ## Changelog for `diaspy`, unofficla Diaspora\* API for Python |
| 2 | |
| 3 | This changelog file follows few rules: |
| 4 | |
| 5 | * __rem__: indicates removed features, |
| 6 | * __new__: indicates new features, |
| 7 | * __upd__: indicates updated features, |
| 8 | * __dep__: indicates deprecated features, |
| 9 | |
| 10 | Deprecation means that in the next version feature will be removed. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Also, after every version there should be a brief note describing possible |
| 13 | problems with migrating to it from older versions and usage of new features. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Users can always read the manual and dcumentation to make themselves more knowledgeable and |
| 16 | are encouraged to do so. They only need to remember that documentation is usually more |
| 17 | up-to-date than manual and if conflicts appear they should follow the order: |
| 18 | |
| 19 | *docstrings* -> *docs/* -> *manual/* |
| 20 | |

| 23 | |
| 24 | #### Version `0.4.0` (2013-08-20): |
| 25 | |
| 26 | This release is **not backwards compatible with `0.3.x` line**! You'll have to check your code for corrections. |
| 27 | Also, this release if first to officially released fork version. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | * __dep__: `diaspy.client` is officially deprecated (will be removed in `0.4.1`), |
| 30 | |
| 31 | * __upd__: `diaspy.conversations` renamed to `diaspy.messages`, |
| 32 | * __udp__: `diaspy.conversations.Conversation` moved to `diaspy.models`, |
| 33 | |
| 34 | * __new__: `diaspy.messages.Mailbox()` object representing diaspora\* mailbox, |
| 35 | |
| 36 | ---- |
| 37 | |
| 38 | Version `0.3.2` (2013-08-20): |
| 39 | |
| 40 | * __upd__: `diaspy.connection.getUserData()` raises `DiaspyError` when it cannot find user data, |
| 41 | |
| 42 | * __rem__: `diaspy.client.Client` must be explicitly imported, |
| 43 | |
| 44 | ---- |
| 45 | |
| 46 | Version `0.3.1` (2013-07-12): |
| 47 | |
| 48 | * __upd__: `diaspy.people.sephandle()` raises `InvalidHandleError` instead of `UserError` |
| 49 | * __upd__: `models.Post()._fetch()` renamed to `_fetchdata()` (because of new `_fetchcomments()` method) |
| 50 | * __new__: `models.Comment()` object: wrapper for comments, not to be created manually |
| 51 | * __new__: `comments` parameter in `models.Post`: defines whether to fetch post's commets |
| 52 | * __new__: `connection.Connection` has new parameter in `__init__()`: it's `schema` |
| 53 | * __new__: `author()` method in `models.Post()` |
| 54 | |
| 55 | |
| 56 | The new parameter in `connection.Connection` is useful when operating with handles. |
| 57 | As handle does not contain schema (`http`, `https`, etc.) `_setlogin()` would raise an |
| 58 | unhandled exception -- `requests.exceptions.MissingSchema`. |
| 59 | Now, however, `Connection` will catch the exception, add missing schema and try once more. |
| 60 | This parameter is provided to give programmers ability to manipulate it. |
| 61 | |
| 62 | Also, now you can pass just `pod.example.com` as `pod` parameter. Less typing! |
| 63 | |
| 64 | When it comes to posts, we are now able to fetch comments. |
| 65 | |
| 66 | ---- |
| 67 | |
| 68 | Version `0.3.0` (2013-07-07): |
| 69 | |
| 70 | First edition of Changelog for `diaspy`. |
| 71 | Developers should update their code as version `0.3.0` may not be fully |
| 72 | backwards compatible depending on how the code is written. |
| 73 | If you always pass named arguments and do not rely on their order you can, at least in |
| 74 | theory, not worry about this update. |
| 75 | |
| 76 | Version `0.3.0` introduces few new features, fixes several bugs and brings a bit of |
| 77 | redesign and refactoring od `diaspy`'s code. |
