Full Changelog: 3.4.0...3.4.1

3.4.0

The most significant change in this version is documentation, which is now automatically generated and served by readthedocs: https://mide-technology-endaq-docs.readthedocs-hosted.com/projects/ebmlite/en/latest/

• Type hinting added to all (or nearly all) user-facing functions/methods
• Docstrings updated to use proper Sphinx tags, plus some content edits/corrections
• README edits

Functional changes:

• Added util.flatiter() function, which recursively crawls a Document/MasterElement yielding elements (same concept as numpy.flatiter()).
• MasterElement.children (the container's valid child element classes) changed from a dictionary (of classes keyed by ID) to a set of IDs. This will only affect code that directly references the attribute (a somewhat obscure edge case).
• name and id attributes explicitly added to Element, fixing some 'unknown attribute' linter warnings.
• Python versions updated in package classifiers and GitHub unit tests (Python 3.9 - 3.13).
• Removed some workarounds for Python <= 3.7 (deprecated 2023-06-27).

What's Changed

• More useful and/or appropriate exceptions are raised during encoding errors (#118).

  • Errors raising a generic struct.error now raise TypeError with an appropriate explanation.
• Corrected and improved documentation/docstrings (#116 and other PRs this release).
• Tests updated to include Python 3.11 (#121).
