modelx v0.5.0 (18 April 2020)#
This release is mainly for adding API functions and methods needed for spyder-modelx v0.3.0. This release also introduce backward incompatible changes, one of which is the elimination of implicit conversion of Cells as arguments to their values. The calculation speed is improved by 10% due to the change.
Warning
Due to the introduction of the backward incompatible changes in this release, the source code of lifelib models based on the past lifelib versions needs manual changes to work with this version of modelx. See commit 605802a and commit df083f6 for where and how to make changes in your lifelib source code.
Enhancements#
bases is added to
_baseattrs

node
,preds
, andsuccs
._get_from_name()
method is addedModel
.as_proxy
paramter is added toget_object()
function to specify whether to return ReferenceProxy for a Reference._namedid
property is added to interfaces.
Backward Incompatible Changes#
Implicit conversion of a Cells with no parameters to its value, when passed as an argument to another Cells, is removed. It must be passed as value explicitly, by adding
()
.open_model()
is renamed torestore_model()
for clarity.open_model()
is still available but a deprecation warning message appears, and it will be removed in a future release.The items in RefView._baseattrs are changed.
_to_attrdict()
recursively calls arguments_to_attrdict
only when its defined.is_input
is moved to CellsCellNode
is renamed toItemProxy
Bug Fixes#
Error when a model is restored and immediately saved (GH30).
An incomplete model is left when
read_model()
fails.get_object()
can operate on properties too.
