pandas.AppendableExcelDataSet Works with Excel file opened in append mode kedro.extras.datasets.pandas
tensorflow.TensorFlowModelDataset Works with TensorFlow models using TensorFlow 2.X kedro.extras.datasets.tensorflow
holoviews.HoloviewsWriter Works with Holoviews objects (saves as image file) kedro.extras.datasets.holoviews
  • kedro install will now compile project dependencies (by running kedro build-reqs behind the scenes) before the installation if the src/requirements.in file doesn't exist.
  • Added only_nodes_with_namespace in Pipeline class to filter only nodes with a specified namespace.
  • Added the kedro pipeline delete command to help delete unwanted or unused pipelines (it won't remove references to the pipeline in your create_pipelines() code).
  • Added the kedro pipeline package command to help package up a modular pipeline. It will bundle up the pipeline source code, tests, and parameters configuration into a .whl file.

Bug fixes and other changes

  • Improvement in DataCatalog:
    • Introduced regex filtering to the DataCatalog.list() method.
    • Non-alphanumeric characters (except underscore) in dataset name are replaced with __ in DataCatalog.datasets, for ease of access to transcoded datasets.

    • Improved initialization speed of spark.SparkHiveDataSet.
    • Improved S3 cache in spark.SparkDataSet.
    • Added support of options for building pyarrow table in pandas.ParquetDataSet.

    • kedro build-reqs is now called with -q option and will no longer print out compiled requirements to the console for security reasons.
    • All unrecognized CLI options in kedro build-reqs command are now passed to pip-compile call (e.g. kedro build-reqs --generate-hashes).

Breaking changes to the API

Migration guide from Kedro 0.16.1 to 0.16.2

Guide to apply the fix for %run_viz line magic in existing project

Even though this release ships a fix for project generated with kedro==0.16.2, after upgrading, you will still need to make a change in your existing project if it was generated with kedro>=0.16.0,<=0.16.1 for the fix to take effect. Specifically, please change the content of your project's IPython init script located at .ipython/profile_default/startup/00-kedro-init.py with the content of this file. You will also need kedro-viz>=3.3.1.
