pypyr automation task runner v4.2.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-10-30 // over 3 years ago
    • python 3.9 compatibility officially confirmed. All good. Woo!
    • ๐Ÿ†• New Flat ff and Recursive rf formatting specifiers. #195
      • Maintain backwards compatibility for all current formatting functionality.
      • The get_formatted_string, get_formatted_iterable & get_processed_string methods on Context() are now all deprecated. Use get_formatted_value instead. All of the deprecated functions will keep on working as before, but will print a WARN to the output.
      • get_formatted and get_formatted_value remain the official best ways of getting formatted values.
    • ๐Ÿ†• New !jsonify yaml special tag directive. This converts context object to a json string. #197.
    • ๐Ÿ†• New pypyr.steps.jsonparse step. Parse and deserialise a json string into Context. #199
    • Bare pypyr.steps.assert syntax. #196
    • โž• Add new utils.asserts for extra flexibility with nested key validation.
    • PyStrings optimised. Not so that you'd notice, but still, it'll be a smidge faster.
    • ๐Ÿ“œ Friendlier error messages when yaml/json context parsers reject documents that do NOT have a mapping at root.
