Release Notes

Forthcoming

  • ...

2.0.5 (2019-12-25)

  • [display] enum agnostic display for local and remote activity view displays

2.0.4 (2019-11-25)

  • [display] optional show_title in unicode_blackboard_activity_stream

2.0.3 (2019-11-24)

  • [trees] revert to using user signals if available to avoid shenanigans with SIGINT, #264
  • [trees] play nicely, reset signal handlers after setup, #262
  • [visitors] bugfix the snapshot visitor to look for exclusive write keys as well

2.0.1 (2019-11-19)

  • [blackboard] static methods have a namespace too (root), use absolute names, #261
  • [blackboard] do not register keys on the client when xclusive write aborts the process, #261

2.0.x (2019-11-15) - Blackboards v2!

The 2.0.x release wraps up the experimental blackboard improvements being rolled out in 1.3.x and 1.4.x. At this point, the changes to the blackboard framework are so extensive it makes sense to release it with a major version bump and to consider the 1.2.x release as the official goto release for the 1.x.y series.

New Features

  • [blackboard] exclusive write access, #260
  • [blackboard] key remappings, #259
  • [blackboard] formalise namespaces with separators, #256
  • [blackboard] distinguish primitives vs nested for refined read activity detection, #255

See the 1.3.x and 1.4.x changelog notes for additional details.

1.4.x (2019-11-07)

Breaking API

  • [blackboard] fixed read/write ambiguity, now use py_trees.common.Access, #250
# Previously
self.blackboard.register_key(key="foo", write=True)
# Now
self.blackboard.register_key(key="foo", access=py_trees.common.Access.WRITE)
  • [blackboard] drop SubBlackboard, it has problems, #249

New Features

  • [blackboard] namespaced blackboard clients, #250
# Previously, a single blackboard client exists per behaviour
# Now, no blackboard client on construction, instead attach on demand:
self.blackboard = self.attach_blackboard_client(name="Foo")
self.parameters = self.attach_blackboard_client(
    name="FooParams",
    namespace="parameters_foo_"
)
self.state = self.attach_blackboard_client(
    name="FooState",
    namespace="state_foo_"
)
# create a local key 'speed' that maps to 'state_foo_speed' on the blackboard
self.state.register_key(key="speed", access=py_trees.common.Access.WRITE)
self.state.speed = 30.0
  • [blackboard] required keys and batch verification method, #254
self.blackboard = self.attach_blackboard_client(name="Foo")
self.blackboard.register_key(name="foo", access=py_trees.common.Access.READ, required=True)
# ...
self.verify_required_keys_exist()  # KeyError if any required keys do not yet exist on the blackboard
  • [visitors] SnapshotVisitor tracking blackboards on the visited path, #250
# Previously tangled in DisplaySnapshotVisitor:
display_snapshot_visitor.visited.keys()  # blackboard client uuid's (also behaviour uuid's), typing.Set[uuid.UUID]
display_snapshot_visitor.visited_keys  # blackboard keys, typing.Set[str]
# Now in SnapshotVisitor:
snapshot_visitor.visited_blackboard_client_ids  # typing.Set[uuid.UUID]
snapshot_visitor.visited_blackboard_keys  # typing.Set[str]
