See documentation page for details.

2.1.3 - Added `pyproject.toml`

Added pyproject.toml.

See documentation page for details.

2.1.2 - Added `__version__` attribute

Added __version__ attribute at package level.

See documentation page for details.

2.1.1 - Fixed issue with python 2

Fixed #15.

See documentation page for details.

2.1.0 - Better protection against exceptions in the daemon

Now exceptions happening on the daemon side always result in a corresponding message being sent to the client, even if the exception itself is not picklable. Fixes #14.

See documentation page for details.

2.0.2 - bugfix

Fixed error with typing module on some 3.7 distributions. Fixed #13.

See documentation page for details.

2.0.1 - Support for scripts, new name: `spawny`, support for python 2.

General:

• The package is now named spawny. Let's hope that it will be a more intuitive name for users :)

• Added support for python 2. Fixed #4

API:

• You can now execute an entire script or a module in the daemon, thanks to new ScriptDefinition and ModuleDefinition. A new Definition super type was created that is the parent of all definitions.

• ObjectDaemonProxy was renamed DaemonProxy because it now represents the proxy for the entire daemon, whatever it is, while new class ObjectProxy represents the proxy for a given object. Several ObjectProxy rely on the same DaemonProxy to communicate with the other process. Fixes #2 and #7.

• New high-level methods: run_script, run_module, run_object. These make the doc much easier to read and the package more intuitive to use.

Other features:

• Now catching exceptions happening at initialization time, and reporting them in the caller. Fixed #5.

• Fixed bug with python 2 ints not implementing rich comparison. Fixed #12
