Changelog 2024.3.8.dev1

Mar 8, 2024 • Anders Berkeman, Carl Drougge, and Sofia Hörberg

Highlights

• Board shows graphs of job / dataset / urd list relationships.
• New ax hist command that shows a histogram (or toplist of values) for column(s) in datasets.
• New ax sherlock command to find out which job a file fetched from board originated in.

Board

• Show graphs of job / dataset / urd list relationships.
• Add metadata to files fetched from jobs (for supported formats), so you can later find out which job it came from.

csvimport

• New option label_encoding.

dataset_type

• All numeric types now reject empty strings (no longer parsing that as 0).
• All types can now be type+None, which converts the empty string to None.

Shell

• New ax hist command that shows a histogram (or toplist of values) for column(s) in datasets.
• New ax sherlock command to find out which job a file fetched from board originated in.
• ax grep --roundrobin which is like ds.iterate('roundrobin'), so you can e.g. get the original order from a csvimport.
• ax grep takes --dont-grep (+g) and --not-column (+n) to use all columns except those specified.
• ax init now ignores venv and .venv directories in the project directory.

And finally

• More tests.
• Various bug fixes / minor improvements of course.

Note: Python 2 is still supported, but will be unsupported soon.
