Change Log
Pyro 5.15
removed Python 3.7 from the support list (it is EOL). Now supported on Python 3.8 or newer.
fixed cgi.parse deprecation problem in http gateway
removed jquery dependency in http gateway
some small tweaks to setup, tests, examples, and docs.
updated the self-signed example certificates and serial numbers in the ssl example.
Pyro 5.14
http gateway now also has OPTION call with CORS
fixed deprecation warning about setting threads in daemon mode
fixed more threading module deprecation warnings
proxy now correctly exposes remote __len__, __iter__ and __getitem__ etc
improved type hint for expose()
added Proxy._pyroLocalSocket property that is the local socket address used in the proxy.
serve() no longer defaults host parameter to empty string, but None. To be more similar to what a creation of Daemon() normally does.
fixed a Python 3.11 serialization issue
Pyro 5.13.1
fixed @expose issue on static method/classmethod due to API change in Python 3.10
Pyro 5.13
removed Python 3.6 from the support list (it is EOL). Now supported on Python 3.7 or newer
corrected documentation about autoproxy: this feature is not configurable, it is always active.
introduced SERPENT_BYTES_REPR config item (and updated serpent library version requirement for this)
flush nameserver output to console before entering request loop
added optional boolean “weak” parameter to Daemon.register(), to register a weak reference to the server object that will be unregistered automatically when the server object gets deleted.
switched from travis to using github actions for CI builds and tests
Pyro 5.12
fixed error when import Pyro5.server (workaround was to import Pyro5.core before it)
documented SSL_CACERTS config item
removed Python 3.5 from the support list (it is EOL). Now requires Python 3.6 or newer
Pyro 5.11
reworked the timezones example. (it didn’t work as intended)
httpgateway message data bytearray type fix
fixed ipv6 error in filetransfer example
added methodcall_error_handler in documentation
Pyro 5.10
finally ported over the unit test suite from Pyro4
finally updated the documentation from Pyro4 to Pyro5 (there’s likely still some errors or omissions though)
fixed regex lookup index error in nameserver
the 4 custom class (un)register methods on the SerializerBase class are now also directly available in the api module
Pyro 5.9.2
fixed a silent error in the server when doing error handling (avoid calling getpeername() which may fail) this issue could cause a method call to not being executed in a certain specific scenario. (oneway call on MacOS when using unix domain sockets). Still, it’s probably wise to upgrade as this was a regression since version 5.8.
Pyro 5.9.1
fixed some circular import conflicts
fixed empty nameserver host lookup issue
Pyro 5.9
added privilege-separation example
added methodcall_error_handler to Daemon that allows you to provide a custom error handler, which is called when an exception occurs in the method call’s user code
introduced
api.serve
/server.serve
as a replacement for the static class methodDaemon.serveSimple
fix possible race condition when creating instances with instancemode “single”
introduced some more type hintings
Pyro 5.8
cython compatibility fix
removed explicit version checks of dependencies such as serpent. This fixes crash error when dealing with prerelease versions that didn’t match the pattern.
Pyro 5.7
fixed possible attribute error in proxy del method at interpreter shutdown
gave the serialization example a clearer name ‘custom-serialization’
added NS_LOOKUP_DELAY config item and parameter to resolve() to have an optional wait delay until a name becomes available in the nameserver
added lookup() and yplookup() utility functions that implement this retry mechanism
Pyro 5.6
improved and cleaned up exception handling throughout the code base
URIs now accept spaces in the location part. This is useful for unix domain sockets.
Pyro 5.5
made msgpack serializer optional
Anaconda ‘pyro5’ package created
Pyro 5.4
made the decision that Pyro5 will require Python 3.5 or newer, and won’t support Python 2.7 (which will be EOL in january 2020)
begun making Pyro5 specific documentation instead of referring to Pyro4
tox tests now include Python 3.8 as well (because 3.8 beta was released recently)
dropped support for Python 3.4 (which has reached end-of-life status). Supported Python versions are now 2.7, and 3.5 or newer. (the life cycle status of the Python versions can be seen here https://devguide.python.org/#status-of-python-branches)
code cleanups, removing some old compatibility stuff etc.
Pyro 5.3
various things ported over from recent Pyro4 changes:
added a few more methods to the ‘private’ list
fix thread server worker thread name
on windows, the threaded server can now also be stopped with ctrl-c (sigint)
NATPORT behavior fix when 0
source dist archive is more complete now
small fix for cython
Pyro 5.2
travis CI python3.7 improvements
serialization improvements/fixes
reintroduced config object to make a possibility for a non-static (non-global) pyro configuration
Pyro 5.1
python 3.5 or newer is now required
socketutil module tweaks and cleanups
added a bunch of tests, taken from pyro4 mostly, for the socketutil module
moved to declarative setup.cfg rather than in setup.py
made sure the license is included in the distribution
Pyro 5.0
first public release
