Version 2.8.2 (2021-07-08)
Data updates
- Updated tzdata version to 2021a. (gh pr #1128)
Bugfixes
- Fixed a bug in the parser where non-
ValueError
exceptions would be raised
during exception handling; this would happen, for example, if an
IllegalMonthError
was raised indateutil
code. Fixed by Mark Bailey.
(gh issue #981, pr #987). - Fixed the custom
repr
fordateutil.parser.ParserError
, which was not
defined due to an indentation error. (gh issue #991, gh pr #993) - Fixed a bug that caused
b'
prefixes to appear in parse_isodate exception
messages. Reported and fixed by Paul Brown (@pawl) (gh pr #1122) - Make
isoparse
raise when trying to parse times with inconsistent use of
:
separator. Reported and fixed by @mariocj89 (gh pr #1125). - Fixed
tz.gettz()
not returning local time when passed an empty string.
Reported by @labrys (gh issues #925, #926). Fixed by @ffe4 (gh pr #1024)
Documentation changes
- Rearranged parser documentation into "Functions", "Classes" and "Warnings and
Exceptions" categories. (gh issue #992, pr #994). - Updated
parser.parse
documentation to reflect the switch from
ValueError
toParserError
. (gh issue #992, pr #994). - Fixed methods in the
rrule
module not being displayed in the docs. (gh pr
#1025) - Changed some relative links in the exercise documentation to refer to the
document locations in the input tree, rather than the generated HTML files in
the HTML output tree (which presumably will not exist in non-HTML output
formats). (gh pr #1078).
Misc
- Moved
test_imports.py
,test_internals.py
andtest_utils.py
to
pytest. Reported and fixed by @jpurviance (gh pr #978) - Added project_urls for documentation and source. Patch by @andriyor (gh pr
#975). - Simplified handling of bytes and bytearray in
_parser._timelex
. Reported
and fixed by @frenzymadness (gh issue #1060). - Changed the tests against the upstream tz database to always generate fat
binaries, since until GH-590 and GH-1059 are resolved, "slim" zic binaries
will cause problems in many zones, causing the tests to fail. This also
updateszoneinfo.rebuild
to always generate fat binaries. (gh pr #1076). - Moved sdist and wheel generation to use
python-build
. Reported and fixed by
@mariocj89 (gh pr #1133).
