Next Release

0.8.0

New Features

Server

  • Associate application & extension package item with checksum.

    • After uploading an application or extension package, the item metadata will include sha512 metadata entry.
    • After uploading additional files, the item metadata remains unchanged.
    • After removing the second to last files, the sha512 item metadata is updated to match the checksum of the last file.
    • After removing all the files, the sha512 item metadata is set to an empty string.

Documentation

  • Remove obsolete cleanNightly.sh script and update faq.
  • Update developer installation instructions to use Girder 3.x commands.

Bug fixes

Python Client

  • Fix python client test requirements adding “pytest” and “pytest-girder”.
  • Attempting to install the python client using Python < 3.7 will now report an error message.

Server

  • Update extension & package delete endpoints
    • Explicitly check that user can access the associated application folder.
    • Return a confirmation message.

Internal

  • Require Python >= 3.6 for the server. This is consistent with the version associated with the Girder test Docker image girder/girder_test:latest built from girder/.circleci/Dockerfile.
  • The required version previously set to “3.7” in version “0.7.0” for both client and server but it was not enforced due to an incorrect setup parameter. It should have been specified as python_requires instead of python_require (as defined in PEP 440).
  • Re-factor and simplify code based on the newly introduced pre-commit hooks and ruff checks (codespell, pyupgrade and ruff).
  • Add type annotations to python client CLI.

Tests

  • Add GitHub Actions workflow to run pre-commit hooks.

    • Add “codespell” pre-commit hook and fix typos.

    • Add pyupgrade pre-commit hook specifying “–py36-plus” and updates codes accordingly.

    • Add ruff pre-commit hook enabling the following checks:

      "A",           # flake8-builtins
      "ARG",         # flake8-unused-arguments
      "B",           # flake8-bugbear
      "BLE",         # flake8-blind-except
      "C4",          # flake8-comprehensions

      "D",           # pydocstyle (aka flake8-docstrings)
      "E", "F", "W", # flake8
      "EXE",         # flake8-executable
      "EM",          # flake8-errmsg
      "G",           # flake8-logging-format
      "ICN",         # flake8-import-conventions
      "ISC",         # flake8-implicit-str-concat
      "N",           # pep8-naming
      "PIE",         # flake8-pie
      "PGH",         # pygrep-hooks
      "PL",          # pylint
      "PT",          # flake8-pytest-style
      "Q",           # flake8-quotes
      "RSE",         # flake8-raise
      "RUF",         # Ruff-specific
      "S",           # flake8-bandit
      "SIM",         # flake8-simplify
      "SLF",         # flake8-self
