SmartIni 2.0: New Schema definition for better type checking

🎉 New features

• Schema functions now also use automatic slot decision (2208892).

🚨 Breaking changes

• SmartIni now uses direct Option initialization in its Schema definition for consistent type checking. Instead of option_var = "option-key", options are defined with option_var = Option("option-key", type, type_converter) (0764fa1).

💭 Notes

This release can also be downloaded on PyPi.

SmartIni 1.1.3

🚨 Breaking changes

• TypeConverters are now simply the converter functions and not TypeConverter classes (d823567).
• TypeConverters are now created using the converter decorator (d823567).

This release can also be downloaded on PyPi.

SmartIni 1.1.1

🎉 New features

• Added DEFAULT_STRING_CONVERTER which saves the value as is (so far this was done via some confusing None assignments to type_converter) (607fef7)

🚨 Breaking changes

• SmartIni now warns you instead of raising an exception when there is an inconsistency inside your INI file (607fef7)
• The entity delimiter can no longer be changed and is defined as the INI standard, that is newline (\n) (578a195)
• Markers (option delimiter, comment prefix, multiline prefix) are now restrained to certain characters (6facbcc)
• type_converter argument for Parameters is now called default_type_converter (607fef7)
• set_structure() of _StructureSlotEntity (like Schema and Section) now raises a ValueError instead of an IniStructureError when not all items inside the new structure are part of the entity (cb6cb84)
• Section.get_comment_by_content is now called Section.get_comments_by_content (6bc5000)

🛠️ Bugfixes

• Type converters are now correctly applied for undefined options (6815b72)
• Numeric type converter now correctly handles whitespace in numeric strings (e.g. 1 + 5j) (c205d50)
• Type converters are now correctly applied to continuations (607fef7)
• The unnamed section is now correctly removed when empty after reading (eecfd32)

⚙️ Internal changes

• Use modern TypeVar declarations (9d449c0)
• Restructure _ReadIni (607fef7)
• Remove legacy apply_to_slots (9da4acb)
• Add unit tests (987f35c)
