Remove support for Python 3.10, now only supporting Python 3.11 and above.
Replaced incorrect Warning call with logging.warning for proper warning handling.
Also add the .close() method to the MAD class, allowing users to explicitly close the MAD-NG process and clean up resources.
0.8.4 (2026/02/18)
Update to MAD-NG 1.1.11 \
0.8.3 (2026/01/14)
Bump MAD-NG to 1.1.10, no major changes to pymadng.
0.8.2 (2025/11/29)
Update to MAD-NG 1.1.8
0.8.2 (2025/11/29)
Also includes action that can bump all the necessary versions
0.8.1 (2025/10/02)
Update to stable MAD-NG 1.1.6 (not dev-release)
0.8.0 (2025/09/30)
Update to MAD-NG 1.1.6
Added comprehensive ruff configuration in pyproject.toml with various linting rules
Renamed classes and functions to follow PascalCase and snake_case conventions
Updated imports to use pathlib.Path instead of os.path
Improved code formatting and removed redundant constructs
BUG: Fixed used of py instead of py_name, resulting in py_name being unusable.
Removed compatibility for Python versions below 3.10, now only supporting Python 3.10 and above.
Updated GitHub Actions workflows to test against Python 3.10 to 3.14
Updated documentation to reflect changes in code style and conventions.
0.7.1 (2025/08/04)
Update to MAD-NG 1.1.5
0.7.0 (2025/06/05)
Update to MAD-NG 1.1.3
Breaking change: tables in lua are always returned as references, so you must use eval to get the value of the table. Or use the optional second argument in py:send such as py:send(data, true) to return the value of the table.
Dictionaries in python can now be sent to MAD-NG, and will be converted to a lua table.
Add an optional parameter to to_df and convert_to_dataframe methods to allow the user to specify to always return a pandas dataframe, instead of a tfs dataframe, when tfs is installed.
Update the documentation and examples to work again.
Remove iter restriction on MAD-NG objects that are not sequences, now all objects can be iterated over.
Renamed redirect_sterr to redirect_stderr in the MAD object, fixing a typo.
0.6.3 (2025/04/30)
Update to MAD-NG 1.1.2
0.6.2 (2024/12/05)
Rewrite documentation.
Update to MAD-NG 1.1.1.
Handle opening and closing of MAD-NG process more robustly.
0.6.0 (2024/12/05)
Remove debug input variable functionality, now it is only a boolean, and dictates whether the debug information is printed to the console.
Add stdout input to the MAD object, this allows the user to redirect the output of the MAD-NG process to a file.
Add redirect_stderr input to the MAD object, this allows the user to redirect the error output to the stdout file.
Add raise_on_madng_error input to the MAD object, which is on by default. This significantly changes current behaviour, now by default whenever MAD-NG raises an error, this will be received in the pipe to Python. Set to false to revert to the old behaviour.
Expose protected_send method to the user, this allows the user to send a protected string to MAD-NG. Only has different behaviour to send if raise_on_madng_error is set to false.
0.5.0 (2024/10/30)
Add history method to get the history of communication of strings to MAD-NG.
Rename a significant amount of the code to be more readable.
Format the code using ruff.
Convert to using annotations instead of typing.
Allow debug mode to be set to a string, which will be the file that the debug information is written to.
Remove support for Python EOL, now only supporting Python 3.9 and above.
Change how ctrl-c is handled, now it will raise a KeyboardInterrupt error and delete the MAD process.
0.4.6 (2024/01/17)
No change, releasing with MAD 0.9.8-1
0.4.5 (2024/01/17)
No change, releasing with MAD 0.9.8
0.4.4 (2023/11/27)
Remove and test bug where pymadng is not made aware of error during calling an object, leading to returning of incorrect data.
0.4.3 (2023/11/25)
Update GitHub Actions to always use the latest version of MAD-NG
Update tests to be more robust.
0.4.2 (2023/10/18)
Add to_df method to objects, allowing for easy conversion to pandas dataframes.
0.4.1 (2023/08/19)
Change the way send_vars and recv_vars work, they now use kwargs and args respectively.
Fix bug with receiving lists.
Allow tuples to be sent and received (they are converted to lists).
Completely refactor the underlying process again (this time for symmetry).
Update Documentation.
Ensure that the binaries are included on PyPI.
Allow multiple processes with different __last__ objects.
Allow receiving of multiple objects in the syntax a, b = mad["a", "b"] (for symmetry and simplistic).
Set pymadng to now be in beta.
0.4.0 (2023/06/26)
Fix MADX issue
Move binaries to the bin folder
Update MAD-NG binaries
Rename files to start with madp_...
Completely refactor underlying process and remove reliance on mad objects, mad strings and __last__, now the process is completely self contained and can be separated into MAD-NG itself.
