v0.12.0

What's Changed

• Add type hints to thread & process by @BrianPugh in #302

Full Changelog: v0.11.0...v0.12.0

v0.11.0

• Set number of workers to 0 (in thread execution) if the environment variable LOX_DEBUG is set to a true-like value (true, 1, etc.). Makes it easier to set breakpoints in multithreaded code without having to manually edit the decorator.

v0.10.0

• Remove dependency pinning.
• Allow @lox.thread(0). This will execute scatter calls in parent thread. Useful for debugging breakpoints in parallelized code.

tqdm support

Both thread and process decorators now support progress-bar support for the gather call via the package tqdm.

• Can be a bool:

my_func.gather(tqdm=True)

• Can be a tqdm object::

from tqdm import tqdm
pbar = tqdm(total=100)
for _ in range(100):
     my_func.scatter()
my_func.gather(tqdm=pbar)

Worker Refactor

• Complete rework of workers + Fix memory leaks

• Drop support for python3.5

• Drop support for chaining in favor of simpler codebase

v0.5.0

• New Object: lox.Announcement. Allows a one-to-many thread queue with
  backlog support so that late subscribers can still get all (or most recent)
  announcements before they subscribed.

• New Feature: lox.thread scatter calls can now be chained together.
  scatter now returns an int subclass that contains metadata to allow
  chaining. Each scatter call can have a maximum of 1 previous scatter result.

• Documentation updates, theming, and logos

v0.4.2

• Various bug fixes introduced by the Method Adapter

v0.4.0

• Semi-breaking change: lox.thread and lox.process now automatically pass the object instance when decorating a method. This was the original intended usage.

v0.3.4

• Print traceback in red when a thread crashes
