geopy - 2.0.0

geopy 2.0 is a major release with lots of cleanup and inner refactorings. The public interface of the library is mostly the same, and the set of supported geocoders didn't change.

If you have checked your code on the latest 1.x release with enabled warnings (i.e. with -Wd key of the python command) and fixed all of them, then it should be safe to upgrade.

New Features

geopy.adapters module. Previously all geocoders used urllib for HTTP requests, which doesn't support keepalives. Adapters is a new mechanism which allows to use other HTTP client implementations.

There are 3 implementations coming out of the box:

geopy.adapters.RequestsAdapter -- uses requests library which supports keepalives (thus it is significantly more effective than urllib). It is used by default if requests package is installed.
geopy.adapters.URLLibAdapter -- uses urllib, basically it provides the same behavior as in geopy 1.x. It is used by default if requests package is not installed.
geopy.adapters.AioHTTPAdapter -- uses aiohttp library.
- Added optional asyncio support in all geocoders via .AioHTTPAdapter, see the new Async Mode doc section.
- .AsyncRateLimiter -- an async counterpart of .RateLimiter.
- .RateLimiter is now thread-safe.

Packaging Changes

Dropped support for Python 2.7 and 3.4.
New extras:
- geopy[requests] for geopy.adapters.RequestsAdapter.
- geopy[aiohttp] for geopy.adapters.AioHTTPAdapter.

Breaking Changes

geopy.distance algorithms now raise ValueError for points with different altitudes, because altitude is ignored in calculations.
Removed geopy.distance.vincenty, use geopy.distance.geodesic instead.
timeout=None now disables request timeout, previously a default timeout has been used in this case.
Removed GoogleV3.timezone, use .GoogleV3.reverse_timezone instead.
Removed format_string param from all geocoders. See Specifying Parameters Once doc section for alternatives.
exactly_one's default is now True for all geocoders and methods.
Removed service-specific request params from all __init__ methods of geocoders. Pass them to the corresponding geocode/reverse methods instead.
All bounding box arguments now must be passed as a list of two Points. Previously some geocoders accepted unique formats like plain strings and lists of 4 coordinates -- these values are not valid anymore.
.GoogleV3.reverse_timezone used to allow numeric at_time value. Pass datetime instances instead.
reverse methods used to bypass the query if it couldn't be parsed as a .Point. Now a ValueError is raised in this case.
.Location and .Timezone classes no longer accept None for point and raw args.
.Nominatim now raises geopy.exc.ConfigurationError when used with a default or sample user-agent.
.Point now raises a ValueError if constructed from a single number. A zero longitude must be explicitly passed to avoid the error.
Most of the service-specific arguments of geocoders now must be passed as kwargs, positional arguments are not accepted.
Removed default value None for authentication key arguments of .GeoNames, .OpenMapQuest and .Yandex.
parse_* methods in geocoders have been prefixed with _ to explicitly mark that they are private.

Deprecations

.Nominatim has been moved from geopy.geocoders.osm module to geopy.geocoders.nominatim. The old module is still present for backwards compatibility, but it will be removed in geopy 3.

- Python
Published by KostyaEsmukov over 5 years ago

geopy - 1.23.0

This is the last feature release for the 1.x series, as geopy 2.0 has been released. The 1.x series will not receive any new features or bugfixes unless explicitly asked on the issue tracker.

ADDED: Units Conversion docs section.
ADDED: Docs now explicitly clarify that geocoding services don't consider altitudes. (#165)
ADDED: Point.format_unicode method. It was always present as __unicode__ magic for Python 2.7, and now it can be accessed as a public method.
ADDED: geopy.__version_info__ tuple which can be used to dynamically compare geopy version.
ADDED: pytest --skip-tests-requiring-internet switch (might be useful for downstream package maintainers). (#413)
CHANGED: Points with different altitudes now emit a warning in distance computations. In geopy 2.0 the warning would become an exception. (#387)
CHANGED: Improved Point docs: added missing public methods, added more examples.
CHANGED: Nominatim started emitting warnings for a number of sample user agents mentioned in the docs, such as specify_your_app_name_here.
FIXED: IGNFrance ignored proxies with username + password auth. (#289)

- Python
Published by KostyaEsmukov about 6 years ago

geopy - 1.20.0

FIXED: MapBox's geocode method was ignoring the exactly_one parameter. Contributed by TheRealZeljko. (#358)
FIXED: The resulting Location's raw attribute in MapBox erroneously contained a single string instead of a full service response. This might be considered a breaking change (although it's unlikely that the previous raw value was usable at all). Contributed by Sergey Lyapustin and TheRealZeljko. (#354)

- Python

FIXED: GeoNames.reverse_timezone didn't process errors returned by API and instead was always raising obscure KeyError exceptions.
FIXED: GeoNames.reverse_timezone raised KeyError for points which don't have an assigned Olson timezone ID (e.g. Antarctica). Now a valid geopy.Timezone is returned for such, where pytz timezone is created as pytz.FixedOffset.
FIXED: GoogleV3.reverse_timezone raised KeyError for points which don't have an assigned Olson timezone ID (e.g. Antarctica). Now None is returned for such requests, as Google doesn't provide any meaningful data there.

- Python
Published by KostyaEsmukov about 7 years ago

The work on geopy 2.0 has started, see the new geopy 2.0 doc section for more info. geopy 2.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 and 3.4. To ensure a smoother transition from 1.x to 2.0, make sure to check your code with warnings enabled (i.e. run python with the -Wd switch).

ADDED: Geolake geocoder. Contributed by Yorick Holkamp. (#329)
ADDED: BANFrance (Base Adresse Nationale) geocoder. Contributed by Sébastien Barré. (#336)
ADDED: TomTom and AzureMaps: language param has been added to the reverse method.
ADDED: Geonames geocoder now supports both findNearbyPlaceName and findNearby reverse geocoding methods, as chosen by a new find_nearby_type parameter of the reverse method. Contributed by svalee. (#327)
ADDED: Geonames geocoder now supports returning a timezone for a particular Point via a new reverse_timezone method. Contributed by svalee. (#327)
ADDED: Geonames geocoder's reverse method now supports new parameters: lang and feature_code. Contributed by svalee. (#327)
ADDED: Geonames now supports scheme parameter. Although the service itself doesn't yet support https, it will be possible to enable https via this new parameter as soon as they add the support, without waiting for a new release of geopy.
CHANGED: Geonames now builds Location.address differently: previously it looked like Kreuzberg, 16, DE, now it looks like Kreuzberg, Berlin, Germany.
CHANGED: All warnings now specify a correct stacklevel so that the warnings point at the place in your code that triggered it, instead of the geopy internals.
CHANGED: All warnings with UserWarning category which will be removed in geopy 2.0 now have the DeprecationWarning category.
CHANGED: geopy.extra.rate_limiter.RateLimiter is no longer an experimental API.
CHANGED: GoogleV3.timezone now issues a deprecation warning when at_time is a number instead of a datetime. In geopy 2.0 this will become an exception.
CHANGED: GoogleV3.timezone method is now deprecated in favor of GoogleV3.reverse_timezone, which works exactly the same, except that it returns a new geopy.Timezone object, which is a wrapper for pytz timezone similarly to geopy.Location. This object also contains a raw response of the service. GoogleV3.timezone will be removed in geopy 2.0. (#332)
CHANGED: Point constructor silently ignored the tail of the string if it couldn't be parsed, now it is not ignored. For example, 75 5th Avenue, NYC, USA was parsed as Point(75, 5), but now it would raise a ValueError exception.
FIXED: GoogleV3.timezone method didn't process errors returned by the API.

ADDED: ArcGIS now supports custom domain and auth_domain values. Contributed by Albina. (#325)
ADDED: Bodies of unsuccessful HTTP responses are now logged with INFO level.
CHANGED: Reverse geocoding methods now issue a warning for string queries which cannot be used to construct a Point instance. In geopy 2.0 this will become an exception.
CHANGED: GoogleV3 now issues a warning when used without an API key.
CHANGED: Parameters accepting bounding boxes have been unified to accept a pair of diagonal points across all geopy. Previous formats are still supported (until geopy 2.0) but now issue a warning when used.
CHANGED: Path part of the API urls has been moved to class attributes in all geocoders, which allows to override them in subclasses. Bing and What3Words now store api urls internally differently.
FIXED: TomTom and AzureMaps have been passing boolean values for typeahead in a wrong format (i.e. 0 and 1 instead of false and true).

ADDED: HERE geocoder. Contributed by deeplook. (#304)
ADDED: Baidu now supports authentication using SK via a new security_key option. Contributed by tony. (#298)
ADDED: Nominatim's and Pickpoint's view_box option now accepts a list of Points or numbers instead of just stringified coordinates. Contributed by svalee. (#299)
ADDED: Nominatim and Pickpoint geocoders now support a bounded option, which restricts results to the items strictly contained within the view_box. Contributed by Karimov Dmitriy. (#182)
ADDED: proxies param of geocoders can now accept a single string instead of a dict. See the updated docs for the geopy.geocoders.options.default_proxies attribute for more details. Contributed by svalee. (#300)
CHANGED: Mapzen has been renamed to Pelias, domain parameter has been made required. (#309)
CHANGED: What3Words API has been updated from v1 to v2. Please note that Location.raw results have changed due to that. Contributed by Jonathan Batchelor. (#226)
FIXED: Baidu mistakenly didn't process the returned errors correctly. Contributed by tony. (#298)
FIXED: proxies={} didn't reset system proxies as expected.

geopy - 1.14.0

This release contains a lot of public API cleanup. Also make sure to check out the updated docs! A new Semver doc section has been added, explaining the geopy's policy on breaking changes.

ADDED: Nominatim geocoder now supports an addressdetails option in the reverse method. Contributed by Serphentas. (#285)
ADDED: ArcGIS geocoder now supports an out_fields option in the geocode method. Contributed by Jonathan Batchelor. (#227)
ADDED: Yandex geocoder now supports a kind option in the reverse method.
ADDED: Some geocoders were missing format_string option. Now all geocoders support it.
ADDED: geopy.distance.lonlat function for conveniently converting (x, y, [z]) coordinate tuples to the Point instances, which use (y, x, [z]). Contributed by svalee. (#282)
ADDED: geopy.geocoders.options object, which allows to configure geocoder defaults (such as User-Agent, timeout, format_string) application-wide. (#288)
ADDED: Support for supplying a custom SSL context. See docs for geopy.geocoders.options.default_ssl_context. (#291)
ADDED: Baidu geocoder was missing the exactly_one option in its reverse method.
ADDED: GeocodeFarm now supports a scheme option.
CHANGED: Baidu and Yandex geocoders now use https scheme by default instead of http.
CHANGED: ArcGIS geocoder was updated to use the latest API. Please note that Location.raw results for geocode have changed a little due to that. Contributed by Jonathan Batchelor. (#227)
CHANGED: Explicitly passed timeout=None in geocoder calls now issues a warning. Currently it means "use geocoder's default timeout", while in geopy 2.0 it would mean "use no timeout". (#288)
CHANGED: GoogleV3 geocode call now supports components without query being specified. (#296)
CHANGED: GeoNames, GoogleV3, IGNFrance, OpenCage and Yandex erroneously had exactly_one=False by default for reverse methods, which must have been True. This behavior has been kept, however a warning will be issued now unless exactly_one option is explicitly specified in reverse calls for these geocoders. The default value will be changed in geopy 2.0. (#295)
CHANGED: Point now throws a ValueError exception instead of normalizing latitude and tolerating NaN/inf values for coordinates. (#294)
CHANGED: Vincenty usage now issues a warning. Geodesic should be used instead. Vincenty is planned to be removed in geopy 2.0. (#293)
CHANGED: ArcGIS wkid option for reverse call has been deprecated because it was never working properly, and it won't, due to the coordinates normalization in Point.
FIXED: ArcGIS and What3Words did not respect exactly_one=False. Now they respect it and return a list of a single location in this case.
FIXED: ArcGIS was throwing an exception on empty response of reverse. Now None is returned, as expected.
FIXED: GeocodeFarm was raising an exception on empty response instead of returning None. Contributed by Arthur Pemberton. (#240)
FIXED: GeocodeFarm had missing Location.address value sometimes.
REMOVED: geopy.geocoders.DEFAULT_* constants (in favor of geopy.geocoders.options.default_* attributes). (#288)
REMOVED: YahooPlaceFinder geocoder. (#283)
REMOVED: GeocoderDotUS geocoder. (#286)

geopy - 1.13.0

ADDED: Pickpoint geocoder. Contributed by Vladimir Kalinkin. (#246)
ADDED: Bing geocoder: additional parameters for geocoding (culture and include_country_code). Contributed by Bernd Schlapsi. (#166)
ADDED: Point and Location instances are now picklable.
ADDED: More accurate algorithm for distance computation geopy.distance.geodesic, which is now a default geopy.distance.distance. Vincenty usage is now discouraged in favor of the geodesic. This also has added a dependency of geopy on geographiclib package. Contributed by Charles Karney. (#144)
ADDED: Nominatim geocoder now supports a limit option and uses limit=1 for exactly_one=True requests. Contributed by Serphentas. (#281)
CHANGED: Point now issues warnings for incorrect or ambiguous inputs. Some of them (namely not finite values and out of band latitudes) will be replaced with ValueError exceptions in the future versions of geopy. (#272)
CHANGED: Point now uses fmod instead of % which results in more accurate coordinates normalization. Contributed by svalee. (#275, #279)
CHANGED: When using http proxy, urllib's install_opener was used, which was altering urlopen call globally. It's not used anymore.
CHANGED: Point now raises ValueError instead of TypeError when more than 3 arguments have been passed.
FIXED: Point was raising an exception when compared to non-iterables.
FIXED: Coordinates of a Point instance changed via __setitem__ were not updating the corresponding lat/long/alt attributes.
FIXED: Coordinates of a Point instance changed via __setitem__ were not being normalized after assignment. Note, however, that attribute assignments are still not normalized. (#272)
FIXED: Distance instances comparison was not working in Python3.
FIXED: Yandex geocoder was sending API key with an incorrect parameter.
FIXED: Unit conversions from feet were incorrect. Contributed by scottessner. (#162)
FIXED: Vincenty destination function had an error in the formula implementation. Contributed by Hanno Schlichting. (#194)
FIXED: Vincenty was throwing UnboundLocalError when difference between the two longitudes was close to 2*pi or either of them was NaN. (#187)
REMOVED: geopy.util.NullHandler logging handler has been removed.

CHANGED: OpenMapQuest geocoder now properly supports api_key option and makes it required.
CHANGED: Photon geocoder: removed osm_tag option from reverse geocoding method, as Photon backend doesn't support it for reverse geocoding.
FIXED: Photon geocoder was always returning an empty address.
FIXED: Yandex geocoder was returning a truncated address (the name part of a place was missing).
FIXED: The custom User-Agent header was not actually sent. This also fixes broken Nominatim, which has recently banned the stock urllib user agent.
FIXED: geopy.util.get_version() function was throwing an ImportError exception instead of returning a version string.
FIXED: Docs for constructing a geopy.point.Point were referencing latitude and longitude in a wrong order. Contributed by micahcochran and sjorek. (#207 #229)
