History
=========
0.9
- Add ``name_order`` parameter to
:class:`~stevedore.named.NamedExtensionManager` to coerce
:func:`map` into processing the extensions in the order they are
named when the manager is created, instead of the random order
they may have been loaded. Contributed by Daniel Rocco.
- Change the
:class:`~stevedore.dispatch.NamedDispatchExtensionManager` to ignore
missing extensions (:issue:`14`).
- Add ``__getitem__`` to
:class:`~stevedore.extension.ExtensionManager` for looking up
individual plugins by name (:issue:`15`).
- Start working on the tutorial, :doc:`tutorial/index`.
- Remove dependency on distribute, now that it is merged back into
setuptools 0.7 (:issue:`19`).
0.8
- Ignore AssertionError exceptions generated when plugins are
loaded.
- Update :class:`~stevedore.named.NamedExtensionManager` to check
the name of a plugin before loading its code to avoid importing
anything we are not going to use.
0.7.2
- Fix logging support for Python 2.6.
0.7.1
- Fix an issue with logging configuration.
0.7
- Add memoization to the entrypoint scanning code in
:class:`~stevedore.extension.ExtensionManager` to avoid
performance issues in situations where lots of managers are
instantiated with the same namespace argument.
0.6
- Change the :class:`~stevedore.enabled.EnabledExtensionManager` to
load the extension before calling the check function so the plugin
can be asked if it should be enabled.
0.5
- Add :class:`~stevedore.tests.manager.TestExtensionManager` for
writing tests for classes that use extension managers.
0.4
- Removed the ``name`` argument to plugin constructors.
- Added ``driver`` property to :class:`~stevedore.driver.DriverManager`.
0.3
- Added dispatch managers for selecting among a set of plugins at
runtime instead of load time.
- Added ``__call__`` method to
:class:`~stevedore.driver.DriverManager` so it can be invoked in a
more natural fashion for a single plugin.
0.2
- Added documentation
0.1
- First public release
