v3.10.0

Version 3.10.0

💥 New features:

• Issue #81 - Modernize the internationalization utilities
  • The guidata.utils.gettext_helpers module, based on the gettext module, has been deprecated.
  • It has been replaced by a new module guidata.utils.translations, which provides a more modern and flexible way to handle translations, thanks to the babel library.
  • This change introduces a new script for managing translations, which may be used as follows:
    • Scan for new translations:
      • python -m guidata.utils.translations scan --name <name> --directory <directory>
      • or guidata-translations scan --name <name> --directory <directory>
    • Compile translations:
      • python -m guidata.utils.translations compile --name <name> --directory <directory>
      • or guidata-translations compile --name <name> --directory <directory>
    • More options are available, see the help message of the script:
      • python -m guidata.utils.translations --help
      • or guidata-translations --help

🛠️ Bug fixes:

• Issue #88 - DictItem default value persists across dataset instances (missing deepcopy)
  • This issue is as old as the DictItem class itself.
  • When using a DictItem in a dataset, if a value is set to the item instance, this value was incorrectly used as the default for the next instance of the same dataset class.
  • This happened because a deepcopy was not made when setting the defaults of the class items in guidata.dataset.datatypes.
  • The fix ensures that each dataset instance has its own independent default value for DictItem, preventing side effects from one instance to another.

v3.9.0

💥 New features:

• Issue #87 - Array editor: add an option to paste data (Ctrl+V)

v3.8.0

ℹ️ Changes:

  • do_rescan_files: use --no-location option to avoid including the file location in the translation files
  • msgmerge: use --update option to avoid regenerating the translation files
• Replace flake8 with ruff for linting in GitHub Actions workflow

🛠️ Bug fixes:

• Issue #84 - Side effects of win32_fix_title_bar_background with QGraphicsEffect active
• Issue #82 - Autodoc extension: translation of generic documentation text
  • Initially, the generic documentation text like "Returns a new instance of" was translated using the gettext function.
  • This was a mistake, as this text should be translated only after the documentation has been generated, i.e. by the sphinx-intl tool.
  • In other words, translating those generic texts should be done in the application documentation, not in the library itself.
  • To fix this issue, the generic documentation text is no longer translated using gettext, but is left as is in the source code.
• Issue #80 - ValueError when trying to show/edit an empty array

Version 3.5.3

In this release, test coverage is 74%.

🛠️ Bug fixes:

• Configuration initialization on Windows:

  • For various reasons, a PermissionError exception may be raised when trying to remove the configuration file on Windows, just after having created it for the first time. This is due to the fact that the file is still locked by the file system, even if the file has been closed. This is a known issue with Windows file system, and the solution is to wait a little bit before trying to remove the file.
  • To fix this issue, a new try_remove_file function has been added to the userconfig module, which tries multiple times to remove the file before raising an exception.

• Moved back conftest.py to the tests folder (was in the root folder), so that pytest can be executed with proper configuration when running the test suite from the installed package
