v0.5.0 2018-09-27

Added

Users

• New Image object LayeredImage object that can now draw more
  than one object
• Added an introductory tutorial for first time users to the documentation
• Functions from the stylo.domain.transform package can now be applied
  to shapes, meaning that most images can now be made without handling domains
  directly.

Contributors

• Added a Drawable class, this allows a domain, shape and colormap to
  be treated as a single entity.
• Added a render_drawable function that takes a drawable and some
  existing image data and applies it to the data.
• Added a get_real_domain function that given a width, height and scale
  returns a RectangularDomain with appropriate aspect ratio,
  :math:(0, 0) at the centre of the image and the scale corresponding to the
  interval :math:[ymin, ymax]
• We now make use of the [scripts] section of Pipfile so
  running common commands is now easier to remember
  • pipenv run test: to run the test suite
  • pipenv run lint: to lint the codebase
  • pipenv run docs: to run a full build of the documentation
  • pipenv run docs_fast: to run a less complete but faster build of
    the documentation.

Changed

Users

• Altered SimpleImage to no longer take a domain, reducing the
  cognitive load on first time users. It now instead takes an optional
  scale variable to control the size of the domain underneath. This
  also means that the domain now automatically matches the aspect ratio of the
  image so no more distortion in non-square images.

Contributors

• The tests now take advantage of multi-core machines and should now run much
  faster
• Building the docs now takes advantage of multi-core machines and should now
  run much faster.

Fixed

Contributors

• Fixed crashes in exampledoc.py and apidoc.py for first time
  users
• Fixed issue with sed on a Mac for people running the
  devenv-setup.sh script
