From d61e3856696f8a88bc88b10eda6ac3b88710bc35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Hupp Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2021 14:17:45 -0800 Subject: changelog for 0.4.19 --- CHANGELOG | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) diff --git a/CHANGELOG b/CHANGELOG index a9d62af..997b28d 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG +++ b/CHANGELOG @@ -1,3 +1,25 @@ +Changes in 0.4.19 + +- merge in a compatability layer for the upstream libmagic python binding. + Since both this package and that one are called 'magic', this compat layer + removes a very common source of runtime errors. Use of that libmagic API will + produce a deprecation warning. + +- support python 3.9 in tests and pypi metadata + +- add support for magic_descriptor functions, which take a file descriptor + rather than a filename. + +- sometimes the returned description includes snippets of the file, e.g a title + for MS Word docs. Since this is in an unknown encoding, we would throw a + unicode decode error trying to decode. Now, it decodes with + 'backslashreplace' to handle this more gracefully. The undecodable characters + are replaced with hex escapes. + +- add support for MAGIC_EXTENSION, to return possible file extensions. + +- add mypy typing stubs file, for type checking + Changes in 0.4.18 - Make bindings for magic_[set|get]param optional, and throw NotImplementedError -- cgit v1.2.1
