2 | 2 | 7.x Series |
|
3 | 3 | ============ |
|
4 | 4 | |
|
5 | .. _version 7.30: | |
|
6 | ||
|
7 | IPython 7.30 | |
|
8 | ============ | |
|
9 | ||
|
10 | IPython 7.30 fixes a couple of bugs introduce in previous releases (in | |
|
11 | particular with respect to path handling), and introduce a few features and | |
|
12 | improvements: | |
|
13 | ||
|
14 | Notably we will highlight :ghpull:`13267` "Document that ``%run`` can execute | |
|
15 | notebooks and ipy scripts.", which is the first commit of Fernando Pérez since | |
|
16 | mid 2016 (IPython 5.1). If you are new to IPython, Fernando created IPython in | |
|
17 | 2001. The other most recent contribution of Fernando to IPython itself was | |
|
18 | May 2018, by reviewing and merging PRs. I want to note that Fernando is still | |
|
19 | active but mostly as a mentor and leader of the whole Jupyter organisation, but | |
|
20 | we're still happy to see him contribute code ! | |
|
21 | ||
|
22 | :ghpull:`13290` "Use sphinxify (if available) in object_inspect_mime path" | |
|
23 | should allow richer Repr of docstrings when using jupyterlab inspector. | |
|
24 | ||
|
25 | :ghpull:`13311` make the debugger use ``ThreadPoolExecutor`` for debugger cmdloop. | |
|
26 | This should fix some issues/infinite loop, but let us know if you come across | |
|
27 | any regressions. In particular this fixes issues with `kmaork/madbg <https://github.com/kmaork/madbg>`_, | |
|
28 | a remote debugger for IPython. | |
|
29 | ||
|
30 | Note that this is likely the ante-penultimate release of IPython 7.x as a stable | |
|
31 | branch, as I hope to release IPython 8.0 as well as IPython 7.31 next | |
|
32 | month/early 2022. | |
|
33 | ||
|
34 | IPython 8.0 will drop support for Python 3.7, removed nose as a dependency, and | |
|
35 | 7.x will only get critical bug fixes with 8.x becoming the new stable. This will | |
|
36 | not be possible without `NumFOCUS Small Development Grants | |
|
37 | <https://numfocus.org/programs/small-development-grants>`_ Which allowed us to | |
|
38 | hire `Nikita Kniazev <https://github.com/Kojoley>`_ who provide Python and C++ | |
|
39 | help and contracting work. | |
