Pywbemtools 0.6.0 updates its dependency 'urllib3' to v1.24.2 to include a security fix.
Latest version: 1.3.0
Python client tools to work with WBEM Servers using the PyWBEM API.
-----------------
This version contains all fixes up to pywbemtools 0.5.1.
Released: 2020-04-10
**Bug fixes:**
* Fix issue with mixed old and new formats on click.echo statement.
(See issue 419)
* Fixed missing Python 3.7 in supported environments shown on Pypi.
(See issue 416)
* Fixed that the 'class find' command showed the --namespace option twice
(see issue 417)
* Added PyYAML>=5.1 as a prerequisite package for pywbemtools for installation.
So far, it was pulled in indirectly via pywbem.
* Fixed case sensitive matching of class names in instance modify by
picking up the fix in pywbem 0.14.6. (See issue 429).
* Fixed issue where extra diagnostic information about click was being displayed
when the general option --verbose was defined.
* Fixed issue with x509 parameter of WBEMConnection. (See issue 468)
* Fixed issue with class find command not returning connection error when
cannot connect to server.
* Added documentation for the --version general option.
* Increased pywbem minimum version to 0.16.0 to accomodate install issues
on Python 3.4, and to pick up other fixes.
* Test: Accomodated new formatting of error messages in Click 7.1.1, and
excluded Click 7.1 due to bug.
* Test: Fixed dependency to Python development packages on CygWin platform
in Appveyor CI.
* Pygments 2.4.0 and readme-renderer 25.0 have removed support for Python 3.4
and have therefore been pinned to below these versions on Python 3.4.
* Fix bug where order of commands listed in help output was different for
different versions of Python. (See issue 510)
* Increased minimum version of pluggy package from 0.12.0 to 0.13.0
because it failed during loading of pytest plugins on Python 3.8.
(See issue 494)
* Test: Changed testcases that check the CIM-XML generated with output format
'xml' to tolerate the different order of XML attributes that happens on
Python 3.8 (See issue 494)
* Fixed several badges on the README page.
* Remove use of pywbem internal functions from pywbemcli. This removes use of
NocaseDict, _to_unicode, _ensure_unicode, _format from pywbemcli. (See
issue 489)
* Corrected issue with use-pull general option that causes issues with using
the 'either' option with servers that do not have pull. (See issue 530)
* Pinned dparse to <0.5.0 on Python 2.7 due to an issue.
* Test: Fixed incorrect coverage reported at the end of the pytest run,
by increasing the minimum version of the coverage package to 4.5.2.
(See issue 547)
* Test: Fixed bug with detection of invalid test validation values, and fixed
testcases in turn (See issue 553).
* Fixed issues in README and README_PYPI file (See issue 555)
* Improvements and bug fixes in the way the INSTANCENAME parameter of pywbemcli
commands is processed. (See issue 528)
* Increased minimum versions of some packages used for development to address
security issues reported by the pyup.io safety tool: twine, bleach, urllib3.
**Enhancements:**
* Promoted development status of pywbemtools from Alpha to Beta.
(See issue 476)
* Add capability to reorder commands in the help for each group. The commands
in all groups except for the top group (pywbemcli -h) are ordered in the
help list by their order in their source file. The display of commands in
the top level group is alphabetical except that connection, help, and repl
are reordered to the bottom of the list. (See issue 466)
* Define alternatives for creating INSTANCENAME input parameter since the
original form using, WBEMURI is error prone with quote marks.
(see issue 390)
* Add prompt-toolkit auto-suggest. This extends the command completion
capability in the repl mode (interactive mode) to make suggestions on
command line input based on the history file. Usually auto-suggest completion
will be shown as gray text behind the current input. Auto-suggest is not
available in command line mode.
* Add ability to filter results of 'class enumerate', 'class find', and
'instance count' commands for selected class qualifiers. This ability
is based on 3 new options for each of the above commands '--association',
'--indication', and '--experimental' each of which has a corresponding
'no-...'. The user can filter to find classes with combinations of these
options returning only classes that meet the option criteria. Thus,
'--association' returns classes that are associations and '--no-association'
returns only classes that are not associations. See issue 447
* Added support for disabling the spinner that is displayed by default during
any ongoing activities, by setting the env var PYWBEM_SPINNER to 'false',
'0', or the empty string. This is useful when debugging. See issue 465.
* Modified the response handling on commands that may return nothing with
successful response to display a message if the general option --verbose
is defined and display nothing if --verbose not set. This includes
class/instance delete, instance modify and the commands that display
cim objects. (See issue 123)
* Changed the `--ca-certs` general option to support the changes as of
pywbem version 1.0.0 (new values 'system' and 'certifi', and default changed
from a fixed set of directories to 'certifi'). The pywbem version is
determined at run time and pywbem versions before 1.0.0 are still supported.
* Test: Improved assertion messages in tests.
* Output of "pywbemcli server profiles" command is now reliably sorted by
version in addition to org and name. (See issue 500)
* Added support for a new `--pdb` general option and corresponding
`PYWBEMCLI_PDB` environment variable that causes the pywbemcli command
to come up with the pdb debugger before invoking the specified command.
This is a debug feature that is expected to be used mainly by the
developers of pywbemcli. (See issue 505)
* Test: Added support for entering the pdb debugger from specific unit testcases
by setting the condition parameter of the testcase to the string 'pdb'.
This causes pywbemcli to be invoked with the new --pdb option for that
testcase. (See issue 505)
* Removed usage of the "pbr" package. It was used for automatic versioning
of the pywbemtools package, but it had too many drawbacks for that small
benefit (See issue 178):
- Getting the minor version increased in a development version (instead of
the patch version) by means of markers in the commit message never worked.
- The package needed to be tagged twice during the release process.
- If the last tag was too far in the past of the commit history, the
shallow git checkout used by Travis failed and its depth needed to be
adjusted. At some point this defeats the purpose of a shallow checkout.
* Test: Added support for testing on Python 3.8 in Travis, Appveyor and Tox.
(See issue 494)
* Added support for adjusting the width of any help output to the terminal
width. The width can be set using the PYWBEMCLI_TERMWIDTH env var.
(See issues 518 and 542)
* Docs: Increased the width of the help text to 120 (See issue 548).
* Modified the help usage to better reflect the required and optional
components of the command line. This includes showing the location
in the cmd line for general options where before it was called
[COMMAND-OPTIONS] and showing the positioning of both arguments and
command arguments. (See issue 446)
* Increased minimum version of pywbem to 0.17.0 (See issue 571)
* Add option `--full` to `connection list` to create both a brief table
output that only has 3 columns (name, server, mock-server) as default but
when the option is set all of the columns currently in the report. We did
this because it appears that the most frequent use of this command is to just
get the name of the various servers defined within an 80 column display.
This also now shows empty columns where the original report hid any columns
that were empty. (See issue 556)
**Cleanup:**
* Test: Enabled Python warning suppression for PendingDeprecationWarning
and ResourceWarning (py3 only), and fixed incorrect make variable for that.
* Test: Removed testfixtures from minimum constraints file, as it is not used.
* Test: Increased minimum version of pytest from 3.3.0 to 4.3.1 because
it fixed an issue that surfaced with pywbem minimum package levels
on Python 3.7.
* Code: refactor code to use only the .format formatter and remove all use
of the % formatter.
* Test: Added missing indirectly referenced prerequisite packages to
minimum-constraints.txt, for a defined package level when testing with
PACKAGE_LEVEL=minimum.
* Clean up test mock files by merging mock_simple_model_ext.mof into
mock_simple_model.mof
* Changed some tests to account for behavior difference with pywbem 0.15.0
references and associations with invalid class, role.
* Changed minimun version of pywbem to 0.15.0 because of test differences
that resulted from differences between pywbem 0.14.6 and 0.15.0. The
differences are in pywbem_mock where the code was changed to return errors
for invalid classnames and roles in association and reference operations
where it previously return empty, ignoring the invalid classname.
* Added tests of all command groups and commands for server connection error.
* Removed a circumvention for a pywbem bug related to colons in WBEM URIs
that was fixed in pywbem 0.13.0. (See issue 131)
* Added the general option `--use-pull` to the the PywbemServer() class so that
it is persisted in the connection file and to the display of connection
information (`connection show` and `connection list`). This means that
`--use-pull` can now be set for a particular server permanently.(See issues
529 and 534).
* Added table formatted output for connection show and removed original
free-form output format. (See issue 572)
