NestedText 3.0
by NestedText July 19, 2021

July 19, 2021

Introducing NestedText 3.0, a nice alternative to JSON, YAML, TOML NestedText is a new file format for holding data that is to be entered, edited, or viewed by people. It allows data to be organized into a nested collection of dictionaries, lists, and strings without the need for quoting or escaping. In this way it is similar to JSON and YAML, but without the complexity and risk of YAML and without the syntactic clutter of JSON. NestedText is both simple and natural. Only a small number of concepts and rules must be kept in mind when creating it. It is easily created, modified, or viewed with a text editor and easily understood and used by both programmers and non-programmers. NestedText is convenient for configuration files, address books, account information and the like. Here is an example of the first entry from a file that contains an address book: # Contact information for our officers president: name: Katheryn McDaniel address: > 138 Almond Street > Topeka, Kansas 20697 phone: cell: 1-210-555-5297 home: 1-210-555-8470 # Katheryn prefers that we always call her on her cell phone. email: KateMcD(a)aol.com additional roles: - board member - new membership task force - accounting task force The format holds dictionaries (ordered collections of name/value pairs), lists (ordered collections of values) and strings (text) organized hierarchically to any depth. Indentation is used to indicate the hierarchy of the data, and a simple natural syntax is used to distinguish the types of data in a simple and intuitive manner. Specifically, lines that begin with a word or words followed by a colon are dictionary items; a dash introduces list items, and a leading greater-than symbol signifies a line in a multiline string. Dictionaries and lists are used for nesting; the leaf values are always strings. However, *NestedText* pairs nicely with *voluptuous* to add data validation and transformation. Currently there is a Python implementation and a language independent test suite. Documentation: https://nestedtext.org Install: pip install nestedtext Support: https://github.com/KenKundert/nestedtext/issues Give it a try. -Ken

pythran 0.9.12 - heskenn
by Serge Guelton July 13, 2021

July 13, 2021

Hi folks, I just shipped a new release of Pythran—a compiler for scientific kernels written in python. It means it is available on PyPI and github, but not yet on conda, fedora, gentoo etc. This one fixes a bunch of issues for Scipy (again), restores compatibility with Cython, but the biggest change is definitively the new dependency tree. Indeed, Pythran no longer depends on networkx, six nor decorator. The dependency on gast and beniget received a version bump for compatibility with python 3.10 changes. Big thanks to the contributors, every commit counts! $ git shortlog -s 0.9.11..0.9.12 1 Ashwin Vishnu 1 Christian Clauss 1 Jochen Schröder 1 Miro Hrončok 2 Ralf Gommers 35 serge-sans-paille 1 刘星雨 A summarized changelog $ git diff 0.9.11..0.9.12 -- Changelog | cut -c 2- (...) 2021-07-06 Serge Guelton <serge.guelton(a)telecom-bretagne.eu> * Remove six, networkx and decorator dependency * Bump gast and Beniget requirements to support python 3.10 * Bump xsimd to 7.5.0 * Minimal default support for non-linux, non-osx, now-windows platform * Numpy improvements for np.bincount, np.transpose, np.searchsorted * Restore (and test) cython compatibility * Expose pythran.get_include for toolchain integration * Improve error message on invalid spec * Handle static dispatching based on keyword signature * Raise Memory Error upon (too) large numpy alloc * Support scalar case of scipy.special.binom * Trim the number of warnings in pythonic codebase (...)

Roundup issue tracker 2.1.0 (20th anniversary edition) released
by John P. Rouillard July 13, 2021

July 13, 2021

Hello Everybody: I'm proud to release version 2.1.0 of the Roundup issue tracker. This 20th anniversary edition has been possible due to the help of several contributors. This release is a bugfix and minor feature release, so make sure to read https://www.roundup-tracker.org/docs/upgrading.html to bring your tracker up to date. 2.1.0 builds on the 2.0.0 major release that introduced: * Python 2 and Python 3 support * a new REST interface * updates to jinja2 templates including security improvements The changes, as usual, include some new features and many bug fixes. Note that you should run ``roundup-admin ... migrate`` to update the database schema version. Do this before you use the web, command-line or mail interface and before any users access the tracker. You can download it with: pip download roundup then unpack and test/install the tarball. Among the notable improvements from the 2.0.0 release are: Mysql backend now uses an index to make sure that key values are not duplicated when two roundup processes run in parallel. (Hence the need for ``roundup-admin ... migrate``.) Postgres back end uses a server side cursor. This reduces the memory use of the roundup process on large queries. Fix sorting of multilinks in templating code. Sorting by a link without a value no longer generates a traceback. Sorting now works as documented by the spec. If ``roundup-admin security`` finds an invalid property, it exits with a non-zero status. It can be used as part of a CI/CD pipeline to validate schema security. Security fixes for jQuery, markdown handling. Fixes to markdown handling if using the jinja2 template. Keyword editing in jinja2 template improved. Fix a number of tracebacks. Installation uses setuptools not distutils. Valid class names are documented and enforced. All class names now match ``[A-z][A-z0-9_]+[A-z_]``. Replace a number of deprecated/missing functions in newer pythons. Fix history showing invalid data when an update is rejected. The filter command in roundup-admin works transitively and handles empty values properly. Password reset documented in user guide. Admins can set the language used for stemming in the xapian indexer. Devel and responsive template strings now extracted for translation. The file CHANGES.txt has a detailed list of feature additions and bug fixes (58) for each release. The most recent changes from there are at the end of this announcement. Also see the information in doc/upgrading.txt. If you find bugs, please report them to issues AT roundup-tracker.org or create an account at https://issues.roundup-tracker.org and open a new ticket. If you have patches to fix the issues they can be attached to the email or uploaded to the tracker. Upgrading ========= If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow all the "Software Upgrade" guidelines given in the doc/upgrading.txt documentation. Note that you should run ``roundup-admin ... migrate`` to update the database schema version. Do this before you use the web, command-line or mail interface and before any users access the tracker. Roundup requires Python 2 newer than version 2.7.2 or Python 3 newer than or equal to version 3.4 for correct operation. To give Roundup a try, just download (see below), unpack and run:: python demo.py then open the url printed by the demo app. Release info and download page: https://pypi.org/project/roundup Source and documentation is available at the website: https://roundup-tracker.org/ Mailing lists - the place to ask questions: https://sourceforge.net/p/roundup/mailman/ About Roundup ============= Roundup is a simple-to-use and install issue-tracking system with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. It is based on the winning design from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry "Track" design competition. Note: Ping is not responsible for this project. The contact for this project is rouilj at users.sourceforge.net. Use this address for security or other sensitive issues. Development discussions occur on the roundup-devel at lists.sourceforge.net mailing list. Tickets can be opened at https://issues.roundup-tracker.org. Roundup manages a number of issues (with flexible properties such as "description", "priority", and so on) and provides the ability to: (a) submit new issues, (b) find and edit existing issues, and (c) discuss issues with other participants. The system facilitates communication among the participants by managing discussions and notifying interested parties when issues are edited. One of the major design goals for Roundup that it be simple to get going. Roundup is therefore usable "out of the box" with any Python 2.7.2+ (or 3.4+) installation. It doesn't even need to be "installed" to be operational, though an install script is provided. It comes with five basic issue tracker templates * a classic bug/feature tracker * a more extensive devel tracker for bug/features etc. * a responsive version of the devel tracker * a jinja2 version of the devel template (work in progress) * a minimal skeleton and supports four database back-ends (anydbm, sqlite, mysql and postgresql). Recent Changes ============== From 2.0.0 to 2.1.0. Fixed: - Reverse multilink to *the same class* would trigger a traceback about a modified dictionary on iteration (Ralf Schlatterbeck) - issue2551086 - Valid class names not documented. Should follow ``[A-z][A-z0-9_]+[A-z_]``. This was never documented or enforced, but we get obscure errors if the rules are not followed. (Tom Ekberg tests by John Rouilard) - issue2550564 - Roundup sets "Precedence: bulk" on all outgoing mail, which seems wrong. Handle Auto-Submitted header on *inbound* email like we do precedence bulk. This is part of this issue. - roundup-admin filter calls find() not filter when using -s -c -S (John Rouillard) - When requesting transitive properties via ``@fields`` in the REST-API, an empty link in the transitive property (e.g. author.username when requesting message properties) would result in a 404 error. Now we're returning a JSON 'null' value. for an empty link (e.g. empty author in the example). (John Rouillard) - sphinxcontrib.cheeseshop is unmaintained and using old http url. Attempts to override cheeseshop_url failed. Replace call to cheeseshop in docs with raw html and remove references to cheeseshop. (John Rouillard) - issue2551093 - return plain text if markdown formatter throws exception (reported by Cedric Krier, fix by John Rouillard) - issue2551094 - make simplemde handle line breaks the same as the backend markdown formatters. (report: Cedric Krier, patch: Christof Meerwald) - issue2551092 - fix crash bug by aligning ``roundup.anypy.email_.decode_header`` with stdlib ``email.header`` and convert string to bytes for python 3. (Cedric Krier) - issue2551097 - fix underlying bug in use of fenced codeblocks with markdown2. Fix for issue2551093 to prevent exception trigger. (patch: Cedric Krier) - issue2551099 - disable processing of data url's in markdown. Display as plain text. (John Rouillard) - issue2551100 - old jquery has security issues, upgrade it and fix user.help.html (John Rouillard) - replace deprecated base64.decodestring with base64.b64decode in roundup_server.py and roundup_xlmrpc_server.py (reported by lmsteffan in irc) - removed run_tests.py. Newer pytest doesn't support generating stand alone testing bundles. Python 3.9 generates errors running the current run_tests.py. (reported by lmsteffan in irc) - issue2551104 - fix issue with markdown autolink next to punctuation (ced) - removed support for old style trackers that use dbinit.py and config.py. Also remove all uses of deprecated imp module. (John Rouillard) - removed support for setting database type using <database>/backend_name. (John Rouillard) - fixed some issues when generating translations. Use mappings and named format parameters so translators can move substituted tokens in translations. (John Rouillard) - in rest interface, fix uncaught exceptions when parsing invalid Content-Type and Accept headers. Document response formats more fully in doc/rest.txt. (John Rouillard) - in filter, filter_iter and _materialize_multilinks, use named cursor with postgresql. This turns of client-side cursor handling and avoids *large* roundup process (or wsgi process) in case of large results. Fixes issue2551114. (Ralf Schlatterbeck) - issue2551108 - fix handling of designator links when formatted as markdown links. (Reported by Cedric Krier; John Rouillard) - Fix filename created from mail attachments, fixes issue2551118 - Call verifyPassword even if user does not exist.
