Bugfixes

This release fixes two bugs:

1. allows empty channel
2. limits payload to 82 chars

Make NMEAMessage subscriptable

• Makes NMEAMessage subscribable
• Adds documentation on readthedocs.org
• Renames instance attributes of NMEAMessage:
  • msg_type to type
  • count to message_fragments
  • index to fragment_number
  • seq_id to message_id
  • data to payload#
• Adds fill_bits field to NMEAMessage

Improve stability

This release improves the stability. This includes:

• more gentle stream like objects
• invalid checksums are logged but do not cause errors
• the class NMEAMessage is more restrictive in what it accepts
• better type hints
• additional type checks
• more unittests

Add a commandline utility (`ais-decode`)

• Pyais comes with a commandline utility now

  • ais-decode can decode single messages or files
  • you can read from a TCP/UDP socket from the terminal
  • no need to write Python code

• Improves Socket API

Mark package as typed

Thanks to the work of @mjakob the package is now strictly typed and also marked as typed. So every dependent code can profit from the type hints.

These changes should be non-breaking and therefore no issues are expected.

Bugfix

This minor release is able to handle type 0 messages.

UDP support

Now supports reading data from UDP.

Minor release

This release introduces some minor changes:

• stronger type hints
• better project structure (Makefile)
• a ByteStream class to easily assemble messages from an interable
• the option to pass a silent parameter to decode() to ignore errors when decoding

Support every AIS message

This release fixes several bugs and includes decoders for more uncommon AIS messages. Now every AIS message should be decoded.
