Release 0.2
Release date: 2011-04-18
- Fixed several bugs in the tests.
- Added and improved many docstrings.
- All the testing infrastructure has been greatly changed. Testing is now
structured into test bases and test mixins. This is in order to support
organising tests by logical functionality and to support test reuse.
- Removed nose and strait as testing dependencies.
- Removed zope.component and zope.event as dependencies.
- Added a paver test command to run all tests.
- Added a function for running all tests outside of the development
environment. This lets users run the tests in production and other
non-development environments. Just call run() from the python
interpreter or python -m m4us.tests.__init__ from the command-line.
- Made unittest2 and mock full dependencies in order to support running tests
any time.
- Coroutines and coroutine factory functions can now have additional
interfaces. The coroutine() decorator no longer masks them.
- backplane() is now a function. The Backplane class has been removed.
The function behaves identically.
- The name of the first parameter to the :func:.publish_to` function has been
changed to backplane_.
- Removed import-time side effects. The init() function must now be called
explicitly before running anything else. It can either be called at import
time, or very early in a program's main function.
- Renamed the IPostOffice link() and unlink() methods to
IPostOffice.register() and IPostOffice.unregister() respectively.
- Renamed the IScheduler add() and remove() methods to
IScheduler.register() and IScheduler.unregister() respectively.
- IContainer has been changed slightly. The IContainer.coroutines and
IContainer.links are now both defined as immutable sequences.
- Added a filter_from_callable() convenience function that can turn a one
parameter function into a filter coroutine.
- Added a producer_from_iterable() convenience function that can turn an
iterable into a producer coroutine.
- Added a sink_from_callable() convenience function that can turn a one
parameter function into a sink coroutine.
- Added a filter_() convenience decorator that works like
filter_from_callable() but as a decorator.
- Added a producer() convenience decorator that works like
producer_from_iterable() but as a decorator.
- Added a sink() convenience decorator that works like sink_from_callable()
but as a decorator.
- Updated example.py to use the new features and properly handle Unicode
strings.
- Changed the behaviour and command-line options of the paver lint, paver tests_lint and paver check commands. They now work more reliable and have
