Changelog¶

1.1.3 (2016-11-22)¶

Added datetime attribute to SensorValue.
Fixed strange problem in Library where the class itself could sometimes be None in __del__.

Added option to Library to make it possible to select if strings should be decoded or not.
Made tellcore_tool not decode strings (i.e. convert to unicode) when running under Python 2.x to avoid unicode errors when printing non ascii characters.

The callback dispatcher is no longer global, but tied to a Library instance. Applications wishing to use callbacks must now pass an explicit dispatcher instance to the TelldusCore constructor.

Work around crash in Telldus Core (< v2.1.2) when re-initalizing the library after tdClose.

Added AsyncioCallbackDispatcher class for integrating callbacks with the new event loop available in Python 3.4 (asyncio).
Include tools from bin/ when installing.

Added high level support for device groups in the form of the new class DeviceGroup.
More complete documentation.
Removed the methods process_callback and process_pending_callbacks from TelldusCore. Instead, callback_dispatcher is now a public attribute of TelldusCore and the default callback dispatcher QueuedCallbackDispatcher implements the two methods instead.

Telldus functions that used to return bool (tdSetName, tdSetProtocol, tdSetModel, tdSetDeviceParameter and tdRemoveDevice) now raise an exception instead of returning False.
Support for rain- and windsensors.
Include data type in SensorValue.

Improved callback handling to simplify integration with different event loops. Parameter conversion is now done in the library code and the adaptation to different event loops is done by a simple callback dispatch class. The default dispatcher (when using TelldusCore) is still done using a queue.
New documentation for parts of the package. Can be read online at https://tellcore-py.readthedocs.org/.
Fix problem with strings and python 3 (issue #2).
