Changed

• HREFs in Link objects with rel == "self" are converted to absolute HREFs (#574)

v1.0.0

Added

• Removed LinkMixin, and implemented those methods on STACObject directly. STACObject was the only class using LinkMixin and this should not effect users (#309
• Removed single-file-stac extension; this extension is being removed in favor of ItemCollection usage (#309

Deprecated

• Deprecated STAC_IO in favor of new StacIO class. STAC_IO will be removed in v1.0.0. (#309)

Fixed

• Fixed error when accessing the statistics attribute of the pointcloud extension when no statistics were defined (#282)

Fixed

• Fix handling of optional properties when using apply on view extension (#259)

• Fixed spacenet tutorial bbox issue (#201)
• Fix formatting of error message in stac_validator (#190)
• Fixed typos (#192, #195)

Changed

• Refactor caching to utilize HREFs and parent IDs. STAC objects now no longer need unique IDs to work with PySTAC (#214, #160)
• Allow a user to pass a single list as bbox and interval for SpatialExtent and TemporalExtent (#201, fixes #198)

v0.4.0

The two major changes for this release are:

• Upgrade to STAC 0.9.0
• Refactor the extensions API to accommodate items that implement multiple extensions (e.g. eo and view)

See the stac-spec 0.9.0 changelog and issue #65 for more information.

API Changes

These are the major API changes that will have to be accounted for when upgrading PySTAC:

Extensions are wrappers around Catalogs, Collection and Items, and no longer inherit.

This change affects the two extensions that were implemented for Item - EOItem and LabelItem have become EOItemExt and LabelItemExt, and no longer inherit from Item.

This change was motivated by the 0.9 change that split some properties out from eo into the view extension. If we kept an inheritance-based extension architecture, we would not be able to account well for these new items that implemented both the eo and view extensions.

See the Extensions section in the documentation for more information on the new way to use extensions.

Extensions have moved to their own package:

• pystac.label -> pystac.extensions.label
• pystac.eo -> pystac.extensions.eo
• pystac.single_file_stac -> pystac.extensions.single_file_stac

Added

• pystac.read_file as a convenience function for reading in a STACObject from a file at a URI which delegates to STACObject.from_file.
• pystac.read_file as a convenience function for reading in a STACObject from a file at a URI.
• Added support for the view extension.
• Added support for the commons extension.

Changed

• Migrated CI workflows from Travis CI to GitHub Actions #108

• Dropped support for Python 3.5 #108

• Extension classes for label, eo and single-file-stac were moved to the pystac.extensions package.

• the eo and label extensions changed from being a subclass of Item to wrapping items. Note: This is a major change in the API for dealing with extensions. See the note below for more information.

• Renamed the class that enumerates extension names from Extension to Extensions

• Asset properties always return a dict instead of being None for Assets that have non-core properties.

• The Band constructor in the EO extension changed to taking a dict. To create a band from property values, use Band.create
