Released on: 2020/11/27
Bug fixes:
- Properly handle capitalized hashes. On Windows, users might sometimes get capitalized hashes from the system. To avoid false hash mismatches, convert stored and computed hashes to lowercase before doing comparisons. Convert hashes to lowercase when reading from the registry to make sure stored hashes are always lowercase. (#214)
New features:
- Add option to retry downloads if they fail. The new
retry_if_failedoption topooch.createandpooch.Poochallows retrying the download the specified number of times in case of failures due to hash mismatches (coming from Pooch) or network issues (coming fromrequests). This is useful for running downloads on CI that tend to fail sporadically. Waits a period of time between consecutive downloads starting with 1s and increasing up to 10s in 1s increments. (#215) - Allow user defined decompressed file names. Introduce new
nameargument topooch.Decompressto allow user defined file names. Defaults to the previous naming convention for backward compatibility. (#203)
