Changelog

The purpose of this document is to list all of the notable changes to this project. The format was inspired by Keep a Changelog. This project adheres to semantic versioning.

Release 0.7 (2020-02-09)

Significant changes:

Miscellaneous changes:

  • Improved the :func:`~linux_utils.coerce_context()` documentation.
  • Improved formatting of :ref:`history` section, removed duplication between readme and changelog.
  • Start using :man:`...` role in online documentation.
  • Switch to Python 3 in Makefile (local development).
  • Switch to console highlighting in readme.

Release 0.6 (2018-07-03)

  • Bug fix: Don't raise an exception in parse_crypttab() when /etc/crypttab doesn't exist. I ran into the exception that used to be raised when I ran upgrade-remote-system (in debuntu-tools) against a server without any encrypted filesystems and was unpleasantly surprised that my "upgrade && reboot && cleanup kernels" had aborted halfway 😇.
  • Miscellaneous changes: (lots of them)
    • Added this changelog and restructured the documentation.
    • Integrated property_manager.sphinx to improve documentation.
    • Minor changes to the setup.py script:
      • Added the license='MIT' key.
      • Changed alpha trove classifier to beta.
      • Added some additional trove classifiers.
    • Added usage messages of cryptdisks-start-fallback and cryptdisks-stop-fallback to readme.
    • Changed MANIFEST.in to include documentation in source distributions.
    • Minor improvements to documentation of linux_utils.cli module.
    • Bumped copyright to 2018.

Release 0.5 (2017-06-24)

  • Added linux_utils.atomic module (atomic filesystem operations).
  • Expose parsed NFS information in FileSystemEntry objects.
  • Test coverage improvements and minor code changes.
  • Consistently define __all__ for modules.

Release 0.4.1 (2017-06-23)

A "vanity release" to add missing links in the README because the missing links caused PyPI to render the readme on the project page as plain text instead of reStructuredText converted to HTML :-).

Release 0.4 (2017-06-22)

Added the command line programs cryptdisks-start-fallback and cryptdisks-stop-fallback. My reason for adding these was so that I could refer to them in the documentation of my rsync-system-backup package: How to set up unattended backups to an encrypted USB disk.

Release 0.3 (2017-06-21)

Improved /etc/crypttab compatibility:

  • Support for LABEL="..." device identifiers.
  • Respect the /etc/crypttab options discard, readonly and tries.
  • Ignore encrypted filesystems that aren't LUKS.

Release 0.2 (2017-06-21)

Added a Python API for cryptsetup (to control LUKS full disk encryption) including Python emulation of cryptdisks_start and cryptdisks_stop.

This functionality is making it easier for me to write test suites for Python projects that involve disk encryption, for example crypto-drive-manager and rsync-system-backup.

Release 0.1 (2017-06-21)

The initial release of linux-utils supports parsing of the /etc/fstab (/proc/mounts) and /etc/crypttab configuration file formats based on a "generic tabfile" parser. The :ref:`history` section of the readme explains why this project came to be.
