v3.10.0

Version 3.10.0

💥 New features:

• Issue #81 - Modernize the internationalization utilities
  • The guidata.utils.gettext_helpers module, based on the gettext module, has been deprecated.
  • It has been replaced by a new module guidata.utils.translations, which provides a more modern and flexible way to handle translations, thanks to the babel library.
  • This change introduces a new script for managing translations, which may be used as follows:
    • Scan for new translations:
      • python -m guidata.utils.translations scan --name <name> --directory <directory>
      • or guidata-translations scan --name <name> --directory <directory>
    • Compile translations:
      • python -m guidata.utils.translations compile --name <name> --directory <directory>
      • or guidata-translations compile --name <name> --directory <directory>
    • More options are available, see the help message of the script:
      • python -m guidata.utils.translations --help
      • or guidata-translations --help

🛠️ Bug fixes:

• Issue #88 - DictItem default value persists across dataset instances (missing deepcopy)
  • This issue is as old as the DictItem class itself.
  • When using a DictItem in a dataset, if a value is set to the item instance, this value was incorrectly used as the default for the next instance of the same dataset class.
  • This happened because a deepcopy was not made when setting the defaults of the class items in guidata.dataset.datatypes.
  • The fix ensures that each dataset instance has its own independent default value for DictItem, preventing side effects from one instance to another.
