[ANN] PyInstaller 3.4
by Hartmut Goebel Sept. 9, 2018

Sept. 9, 2018

Hello, on behalf of the PyInstaller development team I'm happy to announce PyInstaller 3.4. This release adds support for Python 3.7. http://www.pyinstaller.org Thanks for all those who contributed questions, bug-reports or pull-requests. === What it is === PyInstaller bundles a Python application and all its dependencies into a single package. The user can run the packaged app without installing a Python interpreter or any modules. PyInstaller reads a Python script written by you. It analyzes your code to discover every other module and library your script needs in order to execute. Then it collects copies of all those files – including the active Python interpreter! – and puts them with your script in a single folder, or optionally in a single executable file. PyInstaller is tested against Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. However, it is not a cross-compiler: to make a Windows app you run PyInstaller in Windows; to make a Linux app you run it in Linux, etc. PyInstaller has been used successfully with AIX, Solaris, and FreeBSD, but is not tested against them. === Installation === PyInstaller can be installed from PyPi using pip install pyinstaller === Important Changes === * Add support for Python 3.7 (#2760, #3007, #3076, #3399, #3656), implemented by Hartmut Goebel. * Improved support for Qt5-based applications (#3439). By emulating much of the Qt deployment tools' behavior most PyQt5 variants are supported. However, Anaconda's PyQt5 packages are not supported because its ``QlibraryInfo`` implementation reports incorrect values. CI tests currently run on PyQt5 5.11.2. Many thanks to Bryan A. Jones for taking this struggle. * Drop support for Python 3.3 (#3288), Thanks to Hugo and xiovat. The full changelog for this release can be found at: https://pyinstaller.readthedocs.io/en/v3.4/CHANGES.html === Feedback === We're eager to listen to your feedback on using PyInstaller: Bug tracker: https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues Mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/PyInstaller -- Schönen Gruß Hartmut Goebel Dipl.-Informatiker (univ), CISSP, CSSLP, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer Information Security Management, Security Governance, Secure Software Development Goebel Consult, Landshut http://www.goebel-consult.de Blog: http://www.goebel-consult.de/blog/warum-sie-nicht-perl-programmiern-sollten Kolumne: http://www.cissp-gefluester.de/2012-02-bring-your-own-life-glosse

Nikola v8.0.0rc1 is out!
by Chris Warrick Sept. 8, 2018

Sept. 8, 2018

On behalf of the Nikola team, I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of Nikola v8.0.0rc1. This is the end of the road to Nikola version 8. Within 48 hours, assuming there are no grave bugs reported in that timeframe, we intend to release v8 final. What is Nikola? =============== Nikola is a static site and blog generator, written in Python. It can use Mako and Jinja2 templates, and input in many popular markup formats, such as reStructuredText and Markdown — and can even turn Jupyter Notebooks into blog posts! It also supports image galleries, and is multilingual. Nikola is flexible, and page builds are extremely fast, courtesy of doit (which is rebuilding only what has been changed). Find out more at the website: https://getnikola.com/ Downloads ========= Install using ``pip install Nikola==8.0.0rc1``. If you want to upgrade to Nikola v8, make sure to read the blog post: https://getnikola.com/blog/upgrading-to-nikola-v8.html Changes ======= Features -------- * Add Vietnamese translation by Hoai-Thu Vuong * Don’t generate gallery index if the destination directory is site root and it would conflict with blog index (Issue #3133) * All built-in themes now support ``updated`` timestamp fields in posts. The update time, if it is specified and different from the posting time, will be displayed as "{postDate} (${messages("updated")} {updateDate})". If no update time is specified, the posting time will be displayed alone. * All built-in themes now support the ``DATE_FANCINESS`` option. * Theme bundles are now parsed using the configparser module and can support newlines inside entries as well as comments * Make bootstrap4 navbar color configurable with ``THEME_CONFIG['navbar_light']`` (Issue #2863) Bugfixes -------- * Use UTF-8 instead of system encoding for gallery metadata.yml file * Do not remove first heading in document (reST document title) if ``USE_REST_DOCINFO_METADATA`` is disabled (Issue #3124) * Remove ``NO_DOCUTILS_TITLE_TRANSFORM`` setting, this is now default behavior if ``USE_REST_DOCINFO_METADATA`` is disabled (Issue #2382, #3124) * Enforce trailing slash for directories in ``nikola auto`` (Issue #3140) * Galleries with baguetteBox don’t glitch out on the first image anymore (Issue #3141) Removed features ---------------- * Moved ``tag_cloud_data.json`` generation to a separate ``tagcloud`` plugin (Issue #1696) * The ``webassets`` library is no longer required, we now manually bundle files (Issue #3074)
