Breaking changes

This release depends on python-odml v1.4.0 which was a breaking change from v1.3. Due to this fact the current version is partially incompatible with the previous releases.

Import of previous format odML files

odML files with file format "1" cannot be normally opened with the current release of odml-ui. They have to be converted into the new format using the File - Import feature, which will create, save and open a new, odML v1.4 compatible file. The original file remains untouched to ensure that no information is lost due to the conversion. See #127.

'Value' handling

  • The Value attributes encoder and checksum have been removed.
  • The Value attributes unit, uncertainty, type and reference can now only be specified once for a Property.
  • The Value attribute filename has been renamed to value_origin.
  • The Value odML datatype binary has been removed. Adding binary content to odML files is discouraged in lieu of providing the URL to the original file containing the actual content.

Mapping has been removed

Any mapping functionality has been removed from odml-ui. See #84.

Features and updates

  • Adds a confirmation dialog when Save as would replace an existing file. See #74.
  • The validation is now always run before saving and only a valid odML file may be saved. Otherwise the validation window with the encountered validation errors is displayed. See #58.
  • The default odML terminology repository used in the document wizard has been changed to http://portal.g-node.org/odml/terminologies/v1.1/terminologies.xml.
  • When a new document is created, the corresponding tab is automatically selected. See #71.
  • When a section with children sections is selected in the "Section View", this section is now automatically expanded. See #73.
  • A selected property now always expands, if it contains multiple values. See #70.
  • The content of all multiple values can be voluntarily overwritten when the value entry of the parent Property is set.
  • Removes the wizard intro page; See #103
  • Increases the "Validation Window" size. See #75.
  • Uses different main app starting window sizes (800x600 or 1024x768) depending on the available screen size. See #113.
  • Adjusts the height of the "Attribute View" to always display all attributes. See #113.
  • Reorders the "Property View" columns; See #89.

The odmtables plugin

  • odml-ui provides access to python-odmltables.
  • odml-ui does not require odmltables to be installed, but rather provides buttons to open the current odML document with the selected odmltables wizard plugins at all times. If the required odmltables version cannot be found, an appropriate install required version message is displayed. If odmltables is installed in the required version, the selected wizard is opened in a new window with the odML document from the currently active odml-ui tab.
  • The currently supported odmltables wizard plugins are compare, convert, filter and merge.
  • Currently odmltables only supports XML files with the file ending .odml. Therefore, any odML document that is passed from odml-ui to one of the supported odmltables wizards is saved as an XML file with the ".odml" file ending in the temporary odML folder also used for the terminologies and then passed along to odmltables.

Fixes

  • Fixes various breaking changes introduced in python-odml during the v1.3 - v1.4 transition. See #120 and #124.
  • Fixes that all files were saved as XML, even when the JSON or YAML formats had been selected. See #62.
  • Fixes that all multiple values of a Property can be overwritten by the pseudo_value placeholder text n/a by just escaping the edit state. See #69.
  • Fixes that multiple values of a Property were only accessible after a refresh of the "Property View". See #64.
  • Fixes a Value error when its content was starting with "<". See #65
  • Fixes the Wizard author display. See #53.
  • Fixes missing size refresh of the "Validation Window" when the content tree has updated. See #67.
  • Fixes inactive entry selection in the "Validation Window". See #68.
  • Fixes that loading of an invalid odML file leads to a broken document. See #57.
  • Fixes an AttributeError when opening the validation window. See #60.
  • Fixes an error message display in EditorTab on fail to save. See #66.
  • Fixes Wizard crashes on empty repository and missing parent section. See #66.
  • Fixes missing create_pseudo_value import in EditorTab. See #66.
  • Fixes the validation warning character display for Python 2. See #75.
  • Fixes "Section View" and "Property View" update issues when creating empty documents and switching tabs. See #72 and #81.
  • Removes a hardcoded breakpoint to avoid application freeze; See #108.
  • Refactors code to avoid GTK deprecation warnings; See #98.
