Release Notes
=============

Version 1.3.0
-------------

Fix URL-quoting in `pyneric.rest_requests` (issue #7), which might cause errors
with callers who were working around the bug by providing URL-quoted values
where that should not have been necessary.  Remove the URL-quoting of values
provided to these classes that are used as segments of URLs prior to upgrading.
Actual URLs (such as the `container` argument passed to the
:class:`~pyneric.rest_requests.RestResource` constructor) should remain
URL-quoted.

Add the `pyneric.requests` module, which includes the new
`~pyneric.requests.RequestHandler` class.

Fix a Python 2.6 incompatibility in `pyneric.future`.  Note that Python 2.6 is
still not officially supported.

Deprecate :func:`pyneric.future.python_2_unicode_compatible`, since it is now
the same implementation as the one in `future.utils`.

Fix a bug in :meth:`pyneric.rest_requests.RestResource.from_url` that made it
fail to work correctly with resources that have a trailing slash in
:attr:`~pyneric.rest_requests.RestResource.url_path`.

Version 1.2.1
-------------

Allow APIs that utilize trailing slashes in `~pyneric.rest_requests`.  Specify
a container with a trailing slash to make all resources under it have a
trailing slash.

Version 1.2
-----------

`pyneric.django.db.models.fields.pguuid.AutoPgUuidField` is new and is the
first Django extension in the library.  It is an optional feature, which can be
made a requirement in a project by specifying "pyneric[django-pguuid]" as a
requirement.  See the documentation for more details and `django_test_app`
under the `tests` directory for an example.

Version 1.1.1
-------------

`~pyneric.meta.MetadataBehaviour` now takes a `validate_transforms` argument
that (if set to true) will make validation methods (those that match the
concatenation of `validate_prefix` and a metadata field name) also transform
the metadata value; that is, whatever the method returns is what the value
becomes.

Version 1.1
-----------

The get_function_name utility function is new.

Optional (extra) requirements "pyinotify" and "requests" are now truly
optional; details are below.

`FileSystemNotifier` is no longer imported into the base package because it has
a requirement that is optional/extra for the library.  The name for the extra
feature has been changed from "FileSystemNotifier" to "fsnotify".

The "requests" extra feature name is new, and a project should require it if it
intends to make HTTP requests from the REST classes in pyneric.rest_requests.
Those REST classes are also now usable without the "requests" package
requirement (if not calling HTTP request methods, of course).

Version 1.0
-----------

This is the initial stable release.  Some util module functions and the meta
and rest_requests modules are new.

Version 0.2
-----------

The new pyneric.fsnotify module adds simple support for file system event
notifications with the FileSystemNotifier class.  The pyinotify library is
optional but is required to use this module.

Version 0.1
-----------

This was the first alpha release, containing a few utility functions and
extensions and fixes for using the future library.
