Build system overhaul, constants, and validators
This release focuses mostly on back-end changes, but there are a few additions
to functionality as well. Things have moved around, new unit tests have been
added, and the overall structure of the project is now more manageable. Most
importantly, however, the project has now been transitioned to use poetry
as
its build system and this transition has enabled many of the old config files
to be removed. The entire project now uses pyproject.toml
for all
configuration, from builds to unit tests. In addition, the GitHub Actions
workflow has been split into multiple workflows, it now uses Tox, and the
project is now additionally linted using flake8
; previously only pylint
was used.
Added
iplib3.constants
, a new sub-package used to store all of the constant
values used by the project.iplib3.subnet
, a new submodule housing new subnet objects. At this
stage they remain unused, though the code has been unit tested.iplib3.validators
, a new submodule for validator functions.
Changed
- Validator functions from
iplib3.address
andiplib3.subnet
have been
moved toiplib3.validators
to keep the codebase more maintainable. - Constants originally defined in
iplib3.address
andiplib3.subnet
have been moved toiplib3.constants
. - Some validators, including
port_validator
,ip_validator
,
ipv4_validator
,ipv6_validator
, andsubnet_validator
, have been
added to the public interface. Previously they were considered private. - Steps have been taken to reduce code duplication and complexity by creating
new, currently private helper functions. This will be a key point in
future development. iplib3.PureAddress
is no longer an abstract base class, as it caused
difficulties in unit testing. It has been reworked into a concrete class.- Updated localisation files
Deprecated
- The
requirements.txt
-file is no longer used for anything, it may be removed
in a future version. Then again, it has been kept empty so far as the library
currently lacks non-development dependencies.
Fixed
- Hundreds of linter errors
- Unit test coverage (previously ~70%, now 100%)
- Bugs related to equality testing of addresses
- Bugs related to initialisation and construction of
iplib3.IPAddress
Removed
setup.cfg
setup.py
- Scripts related to running tests (now handled by Makefile and/or Poetry)
Security
- Added Snyk integration to sniff out vulnerabilities
