xGT Release Notes
1.0.0 (12-01-2018)
- Improved stability and performance of connection between python client and xgtd server by switching to using gRPC instead of REST as the default communication protocol. The REST protocol is now deprecated.
- Added ability to query a TableFrame using syntax for querying a VertexFrame.
- Added check when creating VertexFrame that the key parameter is given and is a valid column in the schema.
- Added check when creating EdgeFrame that the source_key and target_key parameters are given and are valid columns in the schema.
- Modified behavior when dropping frames to prevent a user from dropping a frame on which other frames depend.
- Modified behavior when creating frames to require a name for the frame.
- Modified allowed characters for names to allow for unicode characters.
- Disallowed the creation of frames with names containing periods.
- Renamed xgtd configuration file from .gemsconfig to .xgtd.conf, and now look for it in /etc if the file doesn't exist in the user's home directory.
- In xgtd.conf, renamed the property 's3_key_id' to 'aws_access_key_id' and 's3_key' to 'aws_secret_access_key' to be consistent with the naming in the aws credentials file.
- Errors are now reported when .xgtd.conf contains invalid property names or values of the wrong type.
- Modified exceptions to use new naming scheme.
- Improved handling of filename paths passed to I/O commands to make all filename paths unambiguous as to the location of the file.
- Added support for loading CSV files where some of the lines have more columns than the required number.
- Improved documentation and tutorials.
- Fixed a rare bug where simultaneously creating and dropping frames caused an error.
- Fixed a bug where frames with numeric names couldn't be dropped.
- Fixed a bug where using a list of tuples as the schema to create a frame had stopped working.
- Fixed a bug where exceptions were sometimes reported to the wrong job when multiple jobs were running simultaneously.
- Fixed numerous bugs that occurred when loading data.
