v2.11.1

• Promoted getattr() from astroid.scoped_nodes.FunctionDef to its parent
  astroid.scoped_nodes.Lambda.

• Fixed crash on direct inference via nodes.FunctionDef._infer.

  Closes #817

v2.11.0

• Add new (optional) doc_node attribute to nodes.Module, nodes.ClassDef,
  and nodes.FunctionDef.

• Accessing the doc attribute of nodes.Module, nodes.ClassDef, and
  nodes.FunctionDef has been deprecated in favour of the doc_node attribute.
  Note: doc_node is an (optional) nodes.Const whereas doc was an (optional) str.

• Passing the doc argument to the __init__ of nodes.Module, nodes.ClassDef,
  and nodes.FunctionDef has been deprecated in favour of the postinit doc_node attribute.
  Note: doc_node is an (optional) nodes.Const whereas doc was an (optional) str.

• Replace custom cachedproperty with functools.cached_property and deprecate it
  for Python 3.8+.

  Closes #1410

• Set end_lineno and end_col_offset attributes to None for all nodes
  with PyPy 3.8. PyPy 3.8 assigns these attributes inconsistently which could lead
  to unexpected errors. Overwriting them with None will cause a fallback
  to the already supported way of PyPy 3.7.

• Add missing shape parameter to numpy zeros_like, ones_like,
  and full_like methods.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5871

• Only pin wrapt on the major version.

v2.10.0

• Fixed inference of self in binary operations in which self
  is part of a list or tuple.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4826

• Fixed builtin inference on property calls not calling the postinit of the new node, which
  resulted in instance arguments missing on these nodes.

• Fixed a crash on Super.getattr when the attribute was previously uninferable due to a cache
  limit size. This limit can be hit when the inheritance pattern of a class (and therefore of the
  __init__ attribute) is very large.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5679

• Include names of keyword-only arguments in astroid.scoped_nodes.Lambda.argnames.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5771

• Fixed a crash inferring on a NewType named with an f-string.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5770

• Add support for attrs v21.3.0 which
  added a new attrs module alongside the existing attr.

  Closes #1330

• Use the end_lineno attribute for the NodeNG.tolineno property
  when it is available.

  Closes #1350

• Add is_dataclass attribute to ClassDef nodes.

• Use sysconfig instead of distutils to determine the location of
  python stdlib files and packages.

  Closes #1282
  Ref #1103

• Fixed crash with recursion error for inference of class attributes that referenced
  the class itself.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5408

• Fixed crash when trying to infer items() on the __dict__
  attribute of an imported module.

  Closes #1085

• Add optional NodeNG.position attribute.
  Used for block nodes to highlight position of keyword(s) and name
  in cases where the AST doesn't provide good enough positional information.
  E.g. nodes.ClassDef, nodes.FunctionDef.

• Fix ClassDef.fromlineno. For Python < 3.8 the lineno attribute includes decorators.
  fromlineno should return the line of the class statement itself.

• Performance improvements. Only run expensive decorator functions when
  non-default Deprecation warnings are enabled, eg. during a Pytest run.

  Closes #1383

v2.9.3

• Fixed regression where packages without a __init__.py file were
  not recognized or imported correctly.

  Closes #1327

v2.9.2

• Fixed regression in astroid.scoped_nodes where _is_metaclass
  was not accessible anymore.

Closes #1325

v2.9.1

• NodeNG.frame() and NodeNG.statement() will start raising ParentMissingError
  instead of AttributeError in astroid 3.0. This behaviour can already be triggered
  by passing future=True to a frame() or statement() call.

• Prefer the module loader get_source() method in AstroidBuilder's
  module_build() when possible to avoid assumptions about source
  code being available on a filesystem. Otherwise the source cannot
  be found and application behavior changes when running within an
  embedded hermetic interpreter environment (pyoxidizer, etc.).

• Require Python 3.6.2 to use astroid.

• Removed custom distutils handling for resolving paths to submodules.

  Ref #1321

• Fix deque.insert() signature in collections brain.

  Closes #1260

• Fix Module nodes not having a col_offset, end_lineno, and end_col_offset
  attributes.

• Fix typing and update explanation for Arguments.args being None.

• Fix crash if a variable named type is subscripted in a generator expression.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5461

• Enable inference of dataclass import from marshmallow_dataclass.
  This allows the dataclasses brain to recognize dataclasses annotated by marshmallow_dataclass.

• Resolve symlinks in the import path
  Fixes inference error when the import path includes symlinks (e.g. Python
  installed on macOS via Homebrew).

v2.9.0

• Add end_lineno and end_col_offset attributes to astroid nodes.

• Always treat __class_getitem__ as a classmethod.

• Add missing as_string visitor method for Unknown node.

  Closes #1264

v2.8.6

• Fix crash on inference of subclasses created from Class().__subclasses__

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4982

• Fix bug with Python 3.7.0 / 3.7.1 and typing.NoReturn.

  Closes #1239

v2.8.5

• Use more permissive versions for the typed-ast dependencie (<2.0 instead of <1.5)

  Closes #1237

• Fix crash on inference of __len__.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5244

• Added missing kind (for Const) and conversion (for FormattedValue) fields to repr.

• Fix crash with assignment expressions, nested if expressions and filtering of statements

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#5178

• Fix incorrect filtering of assignment expressions statements

v2.8.4

• Fix the scope() and frame() methods of NamedExpr nodes.
  When these nodes occur in Arguments, Keyword or Comprehension nodes these
  methods now correctly point to the outer-scope of the FunctionDef,
  ClassDef, or Comprehension.

• Fix the set_local function for NamedExpr nodes.
  When these nodes occur in Arguments, Keyword, or Comprehension nodes these
  nodes are now correctly added to the locals of the FunctionDef,
  ClassDef, or Comprehension.
