slave Changelog¶
Here you can see the full list of changes between each slave release.
Version 0.4.0¶
Note: This release breaks backwards compatibility.
Changed the notation of a connection to transport. This name is more widely used, see e.g. twisted, or asyncio.
Removed the direct usage of the transport object in device driver methods. Now almost all methods use the InstrumentBase._query() and InstrumentBase._write() methods.
There are only a few exceptions:
- slave.srs.sr830.SR830.trace()
- slave.srsr.sr830.SR830.snap()
- slave.srs.sr850.MarkList.active()
Renamed slave.core.InstrumentBase._cfg attribute to _protocol and in all dependant cases.
Changes to the slave.core module:
- The InstrumentBase.transport`attribute was renamed to `_transport to be more consistent. This avoids shadowing of possible commands and show the intent that in general the transport should not be used directly.
Changes to the slave.lakeshore.ls340 module:
- The slave.lakeshore.ls340.Curve.delete() method now raises a RuntimeError when called on a read-only curve.
- The slave.lakeshore.ls340.LS340._factory_defaults() method does not take the boolean confirm argument anymore. The trailing underscore should be warning enough that you know what you’re doing.
- The slave.lakeshore.ls340.LS340.columnx attributes are replaced by a tuple of column instance.
Changes to the slave.lakeshore.ls370 module:
- Implemented the missing relay commands LS370.low_relay and LS370.high_relay.
