Added
- `pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection.flush_cache()` to flush the on-disk cache with an
optional argument `keep_users` (defaulting to `False`) that allows for
flushing the entire cache **except** for the user **details**. This provides
the opportunity of refreshing the cache on everything but *existing* users.
Note that this will **not** affect **new** users, they will still be
recognized and fetched from PUMAPI (and stored in the cache).
Changed
- `pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection.get_systems_matching()` now raises a `TypeError`
in case the parameter `name_contains` is accidentially as `str` instead of a
list.
- `pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection.get_running_sheet()` now has an optional parameter
`ignore_uncached_users` (defaulting to `False`) that allows to process the
running sheet even if it contains users that are not in the `fullname_mapping`
attribute.
- If the `cache_path` attribute is set for an `pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection`
instance but creating the actual subdir for an intercepted response fails
(e.g. due to permission problems) the response-cache will not be updated.
Before, the exception raised by the underlying code (e.g. a `PermissionError`)
was passed on.
- Methods of `pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection` are now sorted in alphabetical order,
making it easier to locate them e.g. in the API documentation.
Removed
- The following previously deprecated (or not even implemented) methods of
`pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection` have been removed in favor of
`pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection.get_systems_matching()`:
- `_get_system_with_name()`
- `_get_machine_catalogue_from_system()`
- `get_bookable_ids()`
- Removed the stub `pyppms.ppms.PpmsConnection.get_system()` that was only
raising a `NotImplementedError`.
