npm:pywwt 1.3.1

npm:pywwt 1.3.1 (2021-10-14)

• Fix a dumb string-processing bug in the URL canonicalization code that broke
  the widget in Jupyter environments where the "base URL" is nontrivial (#314,
  @pkgw).

pypa:pywwt 0.13.0

pypa:pywwt 0.13.0 (2021-09-24)

This is an important release, updating all variations of the pywwt UI ­— the Qt
widget, the ipywidgets widget, and the JupyterLab integration — to use the WWT
“research app”, instead of the old hand-coded HTML/JS wrapper that was specific
to pywwt. This enables us to take advantage of the app's much more sophisticated
UI and robust development framework, and to provide a homogeneous user interface
across these different variations. (#301, #302, @pkgw)

• This release bundles version 0.7.1 of the research app, which includes support
  for many new features, including catalog HiPS datasets, tiled FITS rendering,
  and more.
• Building in the capabilities of this new framework, the WWT widget has gained
  most_recent_source and selected_sources properties that allow code to
  interact with user selections of sources in the UI. Python code can be
  notified of selection actions by using the set_selection_change_callback()
  method. (#311, @Carifio24)
• Also building on the new framework, the WWT widget now knows about HiPS
  progressive catalogs (#308, @imbasimba, @pkgw). You can query available
  catalogs (via the available_hips_catalog_names) property, add them to the UI
  programmatically with wwt.layers.add_hips_catalog_layer, and obtain the data
  currently visible in the WWT view with the layer.refresh() method.
• To support the above, pywwt has started adding asynchronous processing support
  (#308, @pkgw). When pywwt is used inside a Jupyter kernel, the internals of
  the kernel message queue processing are modified to allow "expedited" message
  handling, which is needed to properly support certain pywwt interactive
  functionalities. This hack is relatively self-contained so hopefully it won't
  be too fragile, but time will have to tell.
• The wwt.load_image_collection() method now has a recursive for nested WTML
  files (#308, @imbasimba).
• The WWT widget constructors have a new hide_all_chrome option that hides all
  of the research app’s “chrome” (UI features), to enable a user experience that
  looks similar to the old pre-app style. This mode is the default in the Qt
  widget, so as to preserve the UX of the Glue app.
• Fix pywwt to be able to parse ImageSet XML data even when the ThumbnailUrl
  attribute is missing (#312, @Carifio24).
• Fixes for Astropy 4.3 (#310, @pkgw).
• The type of the wwt.solar_system.scale setting was corrected.
• The Jupyter server was failing to serve files with unguessable content-types;
  this is now fixed.
• Yet more improvements to the CI, test suite, and API documentation.

Tutorial and how-to documentation for all of this new functionality hasn't been
prepared ... yet.

npm:pywwt 1.3.0

npm:pywwt 1.3.0 (2021-09-24)

• Bundle the research app in the pywwt distribution; currently requiring version
  0.7.1 (#301, #313, @pkgw). Compared to the previous release of this package,
  this includes a ton of new features: HiPS catalogs with data retrieval, tiled
  FITS, and lots of UI polish!
• Port the ipywidgets frontend to use the research app
• Modify the internal APIs to allow the app to come and go, not just become
  ready once

pypa:pywwt 0.12.0

pypa:pywwt 0.12.0 (2021-06-14)

• A variety of internal cleanups relating to the HTML and JS files that are
  bundled with pywwt. These shouldn't affect anything user-visible, yet,
  but we want to publish the cleaned-up code to validate that everything is
  still working correctly.
• Some improvements to the documentation and test suite.

npm:pywwt 1.2.0

npm:pywwt 1.2.0 (2021-06-14)

• New release to track internal cleanups in the pywwt Python code; the built-in
  widget HTML is now served from $baseurl/wwt/widget/, instead of
  $baseurl/wwt/wwt.html.
• Internal cleanups.

pypa:pywwt 0.11.3

pypa:pywwt 0.11.3 (2021-06-09)

• Another attempt to get ReadTheDocs to update the "stable" version of the
  documentation. We need to automate updating of the stable Git branch.

pypa:pywwt 0.11.2

pypa:pywwt 0.11.2 (2021-06-09)

• Tidy up and modernize the installation instructions. Our ReadTheDocs defaults
  to the "stable" version of the docs, so we need to make a release to get them
  to show up for most folks.

pypa:pywwt 0.11.1

pypa:pywwt 0.11.1 (2021-06-03)

• Add compatibility with the change in how the engine handles the
  transparentBlack setting for FITS datasets. The code is written to maintain
  compatibility with older versions of the engine as well (@imbasimba).
• Update some test-suite images to account for the changes in the new
  WebGL-based fits rendering (@pkgw).
• Temporarily disable checking of outgoing links in the docs, since
  Matplotlib currently has a problem that causes the check to fail (@pkgw).

pypa:pywwt 0.11.0

pypa:pywwt 0.11.0 (2021-02-09)

• First-draft support for the JupyterLab application. Rather then providing the
  WWT view as a widget tied to a specific notebook cell, the application
  provides it as a freestanding window that can exist separately from any one
  notebook or cell. This app is developed independently as a Vue app, so it's a
  lot easier to add native UI to it, as compared to the HTML widget that we have
  to provide in our plugin here.

pypa:pywwt 0.10.4

pypa:pywwt 0.10.4 (2021-01-27)

• Fix the sizing of circle annotations upon creation
• Include the latest bundled version of the JavaScript frontend, which should
  hopefully fix the widget in JupyterLab 3.x.
