Ver. 1.5.2 - 2016-Oct-23

Bug fix release, version 1.5.1 has a regression bug on the redis pub-sub client. Disregard that version in favor of this one.

Ver. 1.5.1 - 2016-Oct-23

This minor release brings Channels to pulsar. Channels are a better way to manage publish/subscribe clients. Channels use events to create namespaces which limit the number of channels a client needs to subscribe to. A pubsub client can register to one or more event from a given channel.

This feature is in initial phase of development but stable. Documentation will follow.

Ver. 1.5.0 - 2016-Oct-11

This version brings several improvements and enhancements in the internal API. It is broadly compatible with the 1.4 series with the exception of the media component in the WSGI strings. Importantly, multi-processing is handled directly by asyncio rather than the multiprocessing module. It is still possible to use the multiprocessing module via --concurrency multi command line/config flag. Support for uvloop has been added. To use the this third party event loop, pass the --io uv flag in the command line.

  • Several internal changes for better asyncio API support, dropped all private methods
  • Process based actors are created using asyncio subprocess API
  • Actor based on the multiprocessing module are created via the multi concurrency flag
  • Added the bench setup.py command #247
  • Added pulsar.create_future function, a shortcut for loop.create_future
  • Added support for uvloop
  • Removed tweet example and created a new repository pulsar-twitter
  • Removed require script from wsgi media and refactoring #239
  • Test.wait only support assertRaises #235
  • Removed yield from from all tests
  • No more docs in http://pythonhosted.org/pulsar/
