Release history

0.9

This is a minor feature release

Features:

• Documentation is now generated using sphinx and can be viewed at <http://packages.python.org/modulegraph>.

  The documention is very rough at this moment and in need of reorganisation and language cleanup. I’ve basiclly writting the current version by reading the code and documenting what it does, the order in which classes and methods are document is therefore not necessarily the most useful.

• The repository has moved to bitbucket

• Renamed modulegraph.modulegraph.AddPackagePath to addPackagePath, likewise ReplacePackage is now replacePackage. The old name is still available, but is deprecated and will be removed before the 1.0 release.

• modulegraph.modulegraph contains two node types that are unused and have unclear semantics: FlatPackage and ArchiveModule. These node types are deprecated and will be removed before 1.0 is released.

• Added a simple commandline tool (modulegraph) that will print information about the dependency graph of a script.

• Added a module (zipio) for dealing with paths that may refer to entries inside zipfiles (such as source paths referring to modules in zipped eggfiles).

  With this addition modulegraph.modulegraph.os_listdir is deprecated and it will be removed before the 1.0 release.

Bug fixes:

• The __cmp__ method of a Node no longer causes an exception when the compared-to object is not a Node. Patch by Ivan Kozik.

• Issue #1: The initialiser for modulegraph.ModuleGraph caused an exception when an entry on the path (sys.path) doesn’t actually exist.

  Fix by “skurylo”, testcase by Ronald.

• The code no longer worked with python 2.5, this release fixes that.

• Due to the switch to mercurial setuptools will no longer include all required files. Fixed by adding a MANIFEST.in file

• The method for printing a .dot representation of a ModuleGraph works again.

0.8.1

0.8

This is a minor feature release

Features:

• Initial support for Python 3.x

• It is now possible to run the test suite using python setup.py test.

  (The actual test suite is still fairly minimal though)
