v0.3.2
We are excited to announce the release of the latest patch version of pyDataverse after a significant period of inactivity. This update brings a range of new functionalities and bug fixes, aimed at improving the stability and performance of the pyDataverse library.
The library has been equipped with a CI/CD pipeline to ensure consistent integration with Dataverse. To achieve this, we have utilized the Dataverse Action which uses the progress made by the Dataverse Containerization Working Group to create local instances of Dataverse with ease. This has made contributions safer and made it easier to test pull requests.
PyDataverse has also switched from the requests library to HTTPX, a powerful library for performing HTTP requests. The library offers better performance and compatibility and allows async requests, which were previously impossible. For more information on how to use the new async, please refer to PR #175 for now.
Finally, pyDataverse's building and dependency management has been transferred to pyproject.toml from setup.py. The current de facto standard in packaging Python projects offers numerous advantages over setup.py while maintaining compatibility with the pip installer.
