Changelog

v0.11.0 (devel)

legacy OwnetProxy class deleted
official support for Python 3.6 in tox.ini and setup.py
Python2 uses str instead of unicode for pathnames. (E.g. the return of proxy().dir())
Support for Python 3.2 dropped (no more unit testing.)

v0.10.0 re-licensed under LGPL v3

Per call timeout API implemented.

restructure proxy() factory to avoid circular ref. on saved exception
modify _OwnetConnection to ensure that a persistent connection is closed on errors (relevant for timeouts and other connection errors)
implemented explicit timeout on ownet protocol methods; raises OwnetTimeout
socket code reviewed and refactored
wrap calls to socket methods in _OwnetConnection and raise ConnError in case of OSerror's (close #5)
deprecated classes moved to pyownet.legacy module

No major new features, API cleanup to ensure that connections are properly closed. Functions that return binary data return bytes.

implement dummy context management protocol for _Proxy for consitency with _PersistentProxy
OwnetProxy class deprecated
create a diagnostics directory ./diags
move test suite from ./test to ./tests
pyownet.protocol._OwnetConnection.req() returns bytes and not bytearray. This is due to a simplification in pyownet.protocol._OwnetConnection._read_socket() method.
better connection logic in pyownet.protocol.proxy() factory: first connect or raise protocol.ConnError, then test owserver protocol or raise protocol.ProtocolError
use relative imports in pyownet.protocol
./test and ./examples minor code refactor
.gitignore cleanup (use only project specific ignores)
add __del__ in _PersistentProxy to ensure connection is closed
use with _OwnetConnection inside _Proxy to shutdown sockets
implement context management protocol for _OwnetConnection to guarantee that connection is shutdown on exit
py26 testing via unittest2
transform ./test directory in package, so that common code (used for reading configuration files) can be shared more easily
move ./pyownet to ./src/pyownet
