Full Change log:
Core
  • Breaking: App context aware signal manager.

    This is a deprecation for the property ``signal_manager`` of the ``instance``. This means that ``self.instance.signal_manager``
    needs to be replaced by ``self.context.signals`` to work with the life cycle changes in 0.8.0.
    More info: https://github.com/PyPlanet/PyPlanet/issues/392

    The old way will break your app from version 0.8.0
  • Feature: Add multiple configuration backends. You can now use JSON or YAML as configuration as well. This is in a beta
    stage and can still change in upcoming versions. See the documentation for usage.
  • Feature: Add logging to file option for starting PyPlanet. You can set this up inside of your settings `base.py`.
    More information can be found in the documentation for configuring PyPlanet.

    More information can be found in the documentation for starting PyPlanet.
  • Feature: Add player attributes that can be set by apps for caching or maintaining user settings or data during the session. (Technical)
  • Feature: Add migration script for eXpansion database. Look at the manual on http://www.pypla.net/en/stable/convert/index.html for more information.
  • Improvement: Retry 5 times when connecting to the dedicated server, making it possible to start both at the same time.
  • Improvement: Update library versions.
  • Improvement: Add minimum required version of the dedicated server to prevent starting PyPlanet for non-supported dedicated versions.

  • Improvement: Let the list view skip 10 pages buttons skip to end or begin when less than 10 pages difference. (Thanks @froznsm)
  • Improvement: Add online players login list in the player_manager. (Technical)
  • Bugfix: Fixing issue with the release checker.
  • Bugfix: Fixing the link to the upgrade documentation page (Thanks to @thefifthisa).
  • Bugfix: Only handle player info change event when this player is still on the server to prevent errors.
  • Bugfix: Handle exception when the server initiated a callvote (Thanks to @teemann).
  • Bugfix: Correctly handle None column values when searching and/or sorting generic lists.
  • Bugfix: Correctly handle non-string column values when searching and/or sorting generic lists.
  • Bugfix: Refresh and fixed the player and spectator counters.
Apps
  • NEW: Best CPS Widget for Trackmania, shows the best times per checkpoint above the screen.
