New features

• Support a priori user-provided feature regions via --regions either in Genbank or GFF3 format (currently, only CDS features are supported). CDS coordinates are imported, supersede de novo predicted CDS, and are subject to the regular internal annotation workflow.

Improvements

• Extract & export CRISPR spacer & repeat sequences: #171 #249 (Thanks @alexweisberg)

• Replace HMMER with PyHMMER: #219 (Thanks @jhahnfeld)
• Re-activate parallel pyrodigal gene prediction: #252 (Thanks @althonos)
• Introduce auxiliary scripts: #246 #251 (Thanks @AhmedElsherbini)
• Add Podman wrapper script: bd50faa
• Update dependencies to latest versions: 3260441 33c02f9 a1d2ffe b265672 1a2c48e

Fixes

• Fix PyPI CD: #231
• Add missing --force parameter to Docker wrapper script: f39434e
• Fix wrong runtime report: #243

Full Changelog: v1.8.2...v1.9.0

v1.8.2

This is the second v1.8 patch release (v1.8.2).

Improvements:

• Replacd HMMER by PyHMMER: 3415e89 (Thanks @jhahnfeld)
• Refactored & improved CI scripts
• Refactored the code
• Tweaked code to expand required BioPython versions: 6a88c4b (Thanks @alexweisberg)

v1.8.1

This is the first v1.8 patch release (v1.8.1) catching up an overlooked PR.

Improvements:

• Added all valid expert system hits to the final dbxrefs and JSON results: #198 #199 (Thanks @davidtong28)

Important:
#199 introduced a breaking change in the JSON data structure of the feature->expert section. expert was changed from a dictionary (expert system -> hit) to a flat list of expert hits now having a new type field.
