5.0.0

Major Release

Major Changes:

1. Re-licensed the library to Apache 2.0 from GPL 3.
2. Migrated project automation and dependencies to ataraxis-automation 8.0.0+ standard.
3. Added MCP assets and a companion 'communication' plugin in the 'ataraxis' marketplate that enables AI agent interfacing with all library components.
4. Expanded the range of supported message data objects,
5. Cleaned up minor source code and documentation inefficiencies.
6. Added log processing (data extraction) pipeline.
7. Expanded the data generated by the library to include manifest files that identify controllers, modules, and log files that store the data from each controller and module interfaced by the library.

Full Changelog: 4.1.0...4.2.0

4.1.0

Minor Update

Major changes:

1. Added Python 3.14 support.

What's Changed

• 314 support by @Inkaros in #8
• Added error redirection to terminal for microcontroller discovery by @Inkaros in #9

Full Changelog: 4.0.1...4.1.0

4.0.1

Minor Bugfix

1. Fixed a bug related to not being able to pickle LRU cache instances that prevented the library from running on Windows.

What's Changed

• 4.0.1 by @Inkaros in #7

Full Changelog: 4.0.0...4.0.1

4.0.0

Major Update

Major Changes

1. Refactored the dependency management and automation strategy to ataraxis-automation 7.0.0+ standard.
2. Updated all project dependencies to the latest major versions, which includes all Ataraxis dependencies.
3. Radically simplified the API for writing and integrating custom module interface classes with the rest of the communication infrastructure.
4. Improved runtime performance by deprecating unnecessary runtime checks and introducing LRU caching for module messages,
5. Added a new 'axci-id' CLI command to identify ataraxis microcontrollers available for connection on the local system.
6. Deprecated support for Python 3.11.
7. Added multiprocessing support for log parsing function, leading to a significant performance boost when working with large log archives.

What's Changed

• 4.0.0 by @Inkaros in #6

Full Changelog: 3.2.1...4.0.0

3.2.1

Minor Bugfix

• Added explicit export for the ExtractedModuleData class. This dataclass is used to package module data extracted from .npz archives when the extraction method works with multiple modules at the same time.

Full Changelog: 3.2.0...3.2.1

3.2.0

Minor Update

• Refactored extract_logged_hardware_module_data() method to support extracting data from multiple hardware modules as part of the same I/O operation.

Full Changelog: 3.1.0...3.2.0

3.1.0

Minor Feature Update

1. Introduces a global extract_logged_hardware_module_data() function that can be used to extract the data logged by a ModuleInterface instance without initialized ModuleInterface and MicroControllerInterface objects. Primarily, this allows parallelizing data processing.
2. MicroControllerInterface now has a 'log_path' property which returns the Path to the compressed .npz archive. This path can be provided to the global extraction function to parse the data stored in the archive. Note, the extraction function also requires the module-type and module_id codes available as properties of ModuleInterface class instances.
3. Also includes minor ReadMe and docstring optimizations.

What's Changed

• Added multiprocessing-safe, instance-independent log parsing by @Inkaros in #5

Full Changelog: 3.0.2...3.1.0

3.0.2

Minor Bugfix

1. Fixed MicroControllerInterface runtime cycle error that prevented it from properly working with modules whose parse_mqtt_command method returned None due to directly submitting the message to the microcontroller transmission queue.

What's Changed

• Minor bugfix by @Inkaros in #4

Full Changelog: 3.0.1...3.0.2

3.0.1

Minor Bugfix and ModuleInterface API enhancement

• Critically, added a new abstract method to ModuleInterface. The method allows cleaning up interface assets that were initialized in the remote communication process.

What's Changed

• Bugfixes by @Inkaros in #3
