This flag should be set for packages that import pkg_resources
and thus need setuptools after the build step.
Set this flag for packages that need it and bump PKGREVISION.
2.8.3 (2021-12-13)
------------------
- Fix more use of 'python' where 'python3' is intended.
2.8.2 (2021-12-06)
------------------
- Update documentation to reflect new 2.8 features.
- Fix array compression for non-native byte order
- Fix use of 'python' where 'python3' is intended.
- Fix schema URI resolving when the URI prefix is also
claimed by a legacy extension.
- Remove 'name' and 'version' attributes from NDArrayType
instances.
2.8.1 (2021-06-09)
------------------
- Fix bug in block manager when a new block is added to an existing
file without a block index.
2.8.0 (2021-05-12)
------------------
- Add ``yaml_tag_handles`` property to allow definition of custom yaml
``%TAG`` handles in the asdf file header.
- Add new resource mapping API for extending asdf with additional
schemas.
- Add global configuration mechanism.
- Drop support for automatic serialization of subclass
attributes.
- Support asdf:// as a URI scheme.
- Include only extensions used during serialization in
a file's metadata.
- Drop support for Python 3.5.
- Add new extension API to support versioned extensions.
- Permit wildcard in tag validator URIs.
- Implement support for ASDF Standard 1.6.0. This version of
the standard limits mapping keys to string, integer, or
boolean.
- Stop removing schema defaults for all ASDF Standard versions,
and automatically fill defaults only for versions <= 1.5.0.
- Stop removing keys with ``None`` values from the tree on write. This
fixes a long-standing issue where the tree structure is not preserved
on write, but will break ``ExtensionType`` subclasses that depend on
this behavior. Extension developers will need to modify their
``to_tree`` methods to check for ``None`` before adding a key to
the tree (or modify the schema to permit nulls, if that is the
intention).
- Deprecated the ``auto_inline`` argument to ``AsdfFile.write_to`` and
``AsdfFile.update`` and added ``AsdfConfig.array_inline_threshold``.
- Add ``edit`` subcommand to asdftool for efficient editing of
the YAML portion of an ASDF file.
- Increase limit on integer literals to signed 64-bit.
- Remove the ``asdf.test`` method and ``asdf.__githash__`` attribute.
- Add support for custom compression via extensions.
- Remove unnecessary ``.tree`` from search result paths.
- Drop support for bugs in older operating systems and Python versions.
- Add argument to ``asdftool diff`` that ignores tree nodes that match
a JMESPath expression.
- Fix behavior of ``exception`` argument to ``GenericFile.seek_until``.
- Fix issues in file type detection to allow non-seekable input and
filenames without recognizable extensions. Remove the ``asdf.asdf.is_asdf_file``
function.
- Update ``asdftool extensions`` and ``asdftool tags`` to incorporate
the new extension API.
- Add ``AsdfSearchResult.replace`` method for assigning new values to
search results.
- Search for block index starting from end of file. Fixes rare bug when
a data block contains a block index.
- Update asdf-standard to 1.6.0 tag.
2.7.5 (2021-06-09)
------------------
- Fix bug in ``asdf.schema.check_schema`` causing relative references in
metaschemas to be resolved incorrectly.
- Fix bug in block manager when a new block is added to an existing
file without a block index.
2.7.4 (2021-04-30)
------------------
- Fix pytest plugin failure under older versions of pytest.
- Copy array views when the base array is non-contiguous.
- Prohibit views over FITS arrays that change dtype.
- Add support for HTTPS URLs and following redirects.
- Prevent astropy warnings in tests when opening known bad files.
2.7.3 (2021-02-25)
------------------
- Add pytest plugin options to skip and xfail individual tests
and xfail the unsupported ndarray-1.0.0 example.
- Fix bug resulting in invalid strides values for views over
FITS arrays.
2.7.2 (2021-01-15)
------------------
- Fix bug causing test collection failures in some environments.
- Fix bug when decompressing arrays with numpy 1.20
