Backwards Compatibility Issues

Note that this release changes OS detection on linux. The results should be the same, but if they do differ, and you need to retain the same OS name (which you probably will, because you'll have packages that depend on the analogous implicit package), then you can use the platform_map setting.

Merged pull requests:

  • Replace platform.linux_distribution by distro #954 (predat)

2.60.0 (2020-05-12)

Source | Diff

Backwards Compatibility Issues

Please note that #887 introduces a subtle change to CLI behaviour. Previously, rez-context --resolve would print a space-separated list of packages, even when piped to another process. Now however, if the output is piped, it will print one package per line. This is an improvement, as it means you can more easily chain rez-context with other utilities such as grep, xargs etc.

Notes

This release goes a large way to implementing REP-001

Includes:

  • Pre-install/release running of package tests;
  • New rez-test --inplace option;
  • Correct iteration of tests over variants (variant iteration did not previously exist)

Still to do:

  • rez-test --interactive option;
  • rez-test 'development' mode.

2.47.14 (2019-11-13)

Source | Diff

Notes

Several Windows CI improvements:

  • Base and Py docker images are only rebuilt if necessary;
  • Docker hub no longer requires a login to pull the image (meaning that tests now pass on forked PRs);
  • Rather than checking out the rez github repo in the image entrypoint, the existing checkout (done by the workflow) is bind mounted instead.

With these updates, tests are now passing on all platforms.

Known Issues

If the image is changed, there is a delay in the new image becoming available on docker hub (5-10 mins). If a separate push is made in this time, it can fail, as the Windows test expects to see the new image (which is tagged by commit).

Merged pull requests:

  • Windows docker enhancements #794 (bfloch)
  • Remove the login so that PR work at least for the non-image workflows. #795 (bfloch)
  • Issue 800 windows ci use checkout #801 (nerdvegas)

Closed issues:

  • windows ci: Use Actions checkout #800

2.47.13 (2019-11-08)

Source | Diff

Notes

This release just makes some minor changes related to the CI tests. As well as the changes in the PR shown below, the following changes were also made:

  • 'Windows Docker' workflow was renamed 'Windows'
  • MacOS version used in workflow was changed from 10.14 to 'latest', as per Github's instructions (which were emailed to me).

Merged pull requests:

  • Updated actions badges in README #786 (j0yu)

Closed issues:

  • Fix README actions badges not showing current master status #785

2.47.12 (2019-11-06)

Source | Diff

Notes

This release adds a docker-based workflow for the Github Actions Windows test. This was done specifically because Github's available Windows runtimes come with an already long %PATH%. Rez adds to PATH and hits a limit, causing the cmd shell to fail in several tests.

Notes

  • GitHub Actions CI test suite added
  • Windows not passing currently, fixes to come
  • Note that pwsh shell implementation was using the subprocess 'universal_newlines' arg - this has been removed. This was causing execute_shell to return an str-type stdout/stderr tuple, rather than bytes as every other shell impl does, and this was causing tests to fail.

Notes

Last round of Py3 updates (not counting further bugfixes found from testing).

Please take note if you notice any changes in performance in Py2. This release includes a number of changes from methods like iteritems to items, which in Py2 means a list construction rather than just an iterator. Tests have shown performance to be identical, but you may find a case where it is not.

2.40.2 (2019-08-15)

Source | Diff

Notes

This release fixes an issue on Windows, which has non-case-sensitive filepaths. Requesting a package with a case differing from that on disk would cause two packages to exist in the resolve, which really were just different cases of the same package.

The behaviour on Windows is now:

  • Packages are case-sensitive - rez-env Foo will fail if the package folder on disk is foo;
  • Package repository paths are case-insensitive - ~/packages and ~/Packages are regarded as the same repo.

  • virtualenv has been updated to latest;
  • scripts have been removed, and entry points are used instead;
  • install.py code has been cleaned up and simplified. Specifically, standard use of distlib.ScriptMaker has been put in place;
  • INSTALL.md has been updated with a full explanation of the installer, and why a pip-based installation is not the same as using install.py.

  • #549 '--build-system' rez-build option not always available

Notes

To fix this issue:

COMPATIBILITY ISSUE!

Unfortunately, the 'cmake' build system had its own '--build-system' commandline option also. This was possible because previous rez versions suppressed the standard '--build-system' option if only one valid build system was present for a given package working directory. This option has been changed to '--cmake-build-system'.

2.25.0 [#548] Various Build-related issues

Addressed Issues

  • #433: "package_definition_build_python_paths" defined paths are not available from top level in package.py
  • #442: "rez-depends" and "private_build_requires"
  • #416: Need currently-building-variant build variables
  • #547: rez-cp follows symlinks within package payload

Notes

The biggest update in this release is the introduction of new variables accessible at early-bind time: building, build_variant_index and build_variant_requires. This allows you to do things like define different private_build_requires per-variant, or a requires that is different at runtime than it is at build time. In order to get this to work, a package.py is now re-evaluated multiple times when a build occurs - once pre-build (where 'building' is set to False), and once per variant build. Please see the updated wiki for more details: https://github.com/nerdvegas/rez/wiki/Package-Definition-Guide#available-objects

A new build-time env-var, REZ_BUILD_VARIANT_REQUIRES, has been added. This mirrors the new build_variant_requires var mentioned above.

rez-depends has been updated to only include the private_build_requires of the package being queried (previously, all packages' private build reqs were included, which is not useful). Recall that the previous release fixes the issue where private_build_requires was being stripped from released packages.

The entirety of a package definition file can now see the extra build-time modules available via the package_definition_build_python_paths config setting. Previously, only early bound functions could see these.

There was an issue with package copying (and thus the rez-cp tool) where symlinks within a package's payload were expanded out to their source files at copy time. The default now is to keep such symlinks intact - but hte previous behavior can still be accessed with the rez-cp --follow-symlinks option.

2.24.0: Package Copying

This release adds a new tool, rez-cp, for copying packages/variants from one package repository to another, with optional renaming/reversioning. The associated API can be found in src/package_copy.py.

Addressed Issues

  • #541
  • #510
  • #477

Notes

  • Package definition file writes are now atomic;
  • private_build_requires is kept in installed/released packages;
  • Fixes include modules not being copied into released packages;
  • File lock is no longer created when variant installation happens in dry mode.

2.23.0: Package Usage Tracking, Better Config Overrides

Addressed Issues

  • #528

Notes

Two new features are added in this release:

Override any config setting with an env-var. For any setting "foo", you can now set the env-var REZ_FOO_JSON to a JSON-encoded string. This works for any config setting. Note that the existing REZ_FOO env-var overrides are still in place also; if both are defined, REZ_FOO takes precedence. This feature means you can now override some of the more complicated settings with env-vars, such as package_filter.

Track context creation and sourcing via AMQP. Messages are published (on a separate thread) to the nominated broker/exchange/routing_key. You have control over what parts of the context are published. For more details: https://github.com/nerdvegas/rez/blob/master/src/rez/rezconfig.py#L414

The embedded simplejson lib was removed. The native json lib is used instead, and for cases where loads-without-unicoding-everything is needed, utils/json.py now addresses that instead.

2.22.0: Search API

PR: #213

Notes

Package/variant/family search API is now available in package_search.py. This gives the same functionality as provided by the rez-search CLI tool.

2.20.0: Better CLI Arg Parsing

PR: #523

Addressed Issues

  • #492

Notes

The rez-python command now supports all native python args and passes those through to its python subprocess - so you can now shebang with rez-python if that is useful.

More broadly, rez commands now parse CLI args correctly for each case. Many commands previously accepted rez-env-style commands (eg rez-env pkgA -- somecommand -- i am ignored), but simply ignored extraneous args after -- tokens.

2.19.1: Fixed bug with rez-build and package preprocess

Merged PRs

  • #522

Addressed Issues

  • #514

Notes

The problem occurred because the preprocess function was attempting to be serialized when the package definition is cached to memcache. However, this function is stripped in installed packages; furthermore, caching "developer packages" (ie unbuilt packages) was never intentional.

This release disables memcaching of developer packages, thus avoiding the bug and bringing back originally intended behavior.
