Version 1.0

API Changes

Some routines have been renamed, with the old aliases preserved for backwards
compatibility for now:

  • add_where_when now has an extra boolean parameter,
    'allow_tz_naive_datetime' which defaults to False - so by default you
    must supply a timezone-aware datetime (this should help to avoid
    mistakenly supplying a timezone-naive datetime which is non-UTC).
  • Citation is now deprecated in favour of the alias EventIvorn.
  • pull_isotime is now deprecated in favour of the alias
    get_event_time_as_utc.
  • pull_astro_coords is now deprecated in favour of the alias
    get_event_position.
  • pull_params is now deprecated in favour of the improved replacement
    functions get_grouped_params and get_toplevel_params. Separating
    this functionality into two routines ensures return of datastructures with
    sensible nesting-depth (i.e. toplevel[ParamName][AttrName] or
    grouped[GroupName][ParamName][AttrName]), and avoids problems with
    GroupNames clashing with top-level ParamNames, etc. The returned
    datastructures are of type
    orderedmultidict.omdict <https://github.com/gruns/orderedmultidict>_,
    which provides robust handling of duplicated names.

Docs

Documentation now includes tutorial material which was previously hosted in
a separate GitHub repo.

Fixes

Fix a regression from 0.9.8: Switching from from iso8601 library to astropy
for ISO-format timestamp parsing introduced a failure case, as astropy does
not parse timestamps with the '+0' timezone-signifier suffix. Timestamps of
this style are now parsed correctly. In addition, add_where_when will
now generate ISO-format timestamps that do not include the suffix (since
strictly speaking the VOEvent standard specifies the UTC timezone - or something
altogether non-terrestial, e.g. TDB - already).

General refactoring

Library code now resides under /src, which provides more reliable testing

[DEFUNCT] Enchancement to ``pull_isotime`` for parsing TDB timescale ISOTimes

Attempted to add TDB-timescale timestamp parsing, but introduced a regression along the way - see subsequent commits. This release has been removed from PyPI to discourage use. A breaking-changes release is in the works which will likely be nominated as 1.0.
