pubarchiver - Release 1.12.1

This release fixes a couple of issues:

  • Image conversion exceeded an internal default in the Python Pillow package being used for image conversion. Fixed by disabling the size check.

pubarchiver - Release 1.10.6

This release fixes problems in getting a consistent run-time environment by assuming the use of Python virtualenv to lock in a specific version of Python and dependencies. It also fixes a bug in one of the workflow scripts in which the lack of a mail message body caused the mail command to hang indefinitely.

pubarchiver - Release 1.10.5

This release fixes a bug in the workflow script for uploading to PMC, and adds another helper function to scripts/helpers.sh.

- Python

pubarchiver - Release 1.10.4

This release fixes a bug in the date handling by the workflow scripts. The value of the --after-date argument to microarchiver was set to the date it ran, which caused it to miss articles published on the date that it ran. The value of the date should have been modified to include the day it last ran so that the date comparison was correct. (Thanks to Nick Stiffler for catching and reporting the problem.)

pubarchiver - Release 1.10.2

This release does not change any microarchiver functionality or behavior. The only changes are in the workflow scripts that run microarchiver for uploading files to Portico and PMC.

- Python

pubarchiver - Release 1.10.1

Changes in this version:

  • Fix behavior when DataCite has no data for an article: microarchiver was meant to flag the article and keep going, but instead it treated it as a fatal error.
  • Fix some documentation errors about the numeric codes returned by microarchiver.
  • Minor other improvements.

- Python

pubarchiver - Release 1.10.0

This version changes the behavior of the -@ command-line option, such that exceptions encountered when running with the -@ option do not cause microarchiver to drop into an interactive debugger. The old behavior turned out to be unhelpful in practice, and moreover, it mixed two behaviors into one command-line flag. The latter was problematic when running microarchiver from scripts.

pubarchiver - Release 1.9.4

This version removes an unnecessary dependency on wxPython. A GUI interface was never completed for Microarchiver, and while the starting code is still in the code base in case we try to build a GUI, it doesn't have to be hooked in at this point. Removing the internal references to the GUI code allows the wxPython requirement to be removed, which in turn simplifies and speeds up installation.

pubarchiver - Version 1.6.1 – Minor bugfix release

This fixes broken handling of the debug output destination and updates the README.md to reflect the currently available command-line options.

- Python

pubarchiver - Release 1.6.0 – New debug options

This release changes the debug flag -@ to accept an argument for where to send the debug output trace. The behavior change of -@ is not backward compatible; it will no longer work without an argument value.

The only other change concerns internal modifications to put metadata in setup.cfg and change how Microarchiver gets the metadata internally.

pubarchiver - Version 1.4.0 – add script for use with cron
