v1.3.0

New Features

• Builtin Python 3.10.9
• Multithreading safety
• callAsync method allowing asynchronous calling of Python functions
• On Linux and macOS, the builtin Python interpreter includes static versions of OpenSSL and libffi, this ensures better compatibility at the price of disabling the OpenSSL extensions supporting dedicated crypto hardware - this restriction does not apply if pymport is rebuilt from source
• Named ES6 exports
• Add PyObject.with implementing Python with
• Return the Python exception object and its constructor in PythonError.pythonValue and PythonError.pythonType

Bug Fixes

• Fix #27, a function as a single argument is considered a kwargs object
• Fix #33, PyObject.prototype.constr has wrong TypeScript type

v1.2.0

New Features

• Automatically proxified methods in pymport/proxified
• Proxified objects also proxify the input arguments of passed JS callbacks
• (BREAKING) Conversion of arguments in JS callbacks of Python code is now automatic only if it can be correctly deduced from the context, toJS() must be called in all other cases
• Implement Python type coercion
• Support Python sets

Bug Fixes

• Fix #25, type-ahead provokes a crash in Node.js 14.x REPL

v1.1.1

• Fix #14, toJS() converts Python bool to JS number
• Restore the JS function when converting a pymport.js_function back to JS
• Fix #17, PYTHONHOME is ignored
• In the version reporting, replace the "undefined" suffix with a "" when there is no version suffix

v1.1.0

New Features

• Converting JS functions to Python callables
• Expiring of function objects
• Converting of bytes and bytearray to Buffer and Buffer to bytearray
• Converting between TypedArray and array
• Convert Python iterators and generators to JavaScript Symbol.iterator
• Basic tracking of the memory held by Python objects referenced in JS by the V8 GC
• proxifyed object do not intercept and redirect calls to PyObject methods if the Python object has a method with the same name - ie. calling item() on a non-proxified PyObject invokes PyObject.item() but if the underlying Python object of a proxified object also has an item() function, calling item() on the proxified object will invoke the Python method
• profixy always return the same reference if called with a previously seen PyObject reference
• Support BigInt
• PyObject.slice accepts named arguments
• Return the Python traceback in pythonTrace and add a PythonError TypeScript type
• Do not allow PYTHONPATH to override PYTHONHOME when using the builtin
• Ignore the last argument of a Python function call if it is undefined - this allows to pass a last argument as a dictionary by calling fn(obj, undefined) instead of fn(obj) which will transform obj into named kw arguments
• Support PyObject.keys and PyObject.values on profixyed objects
• Support building against a prebuilt Python tree in a non-standard location
• (internals) New automatic reference counting

Bug Fixes

• Fix #6, proxified objects are wrongly caching values returned by getters
• Fix #8, Infinity is not recognized as a float by the automatic conversion
• Fix #11, npm install --build-from-source fails
