elease r0.5.63

release r0.5.63

2022-11-30

fixed issue #407

Problem

: idf.run() is broken on windows after fix of issue # 403

Solution

: fixed idf.run() on windows

r0.5.62

release r0.5.62

2022-11-30

fixed issued #404

Problem

: idf.run() does not run if there is no idf filename

Solution

: fixed, so idf.run() works with no filename

fixed issue #405

Problem

: need a function to copy the entire idf

Solution

: IDF.copyidf() does this

fixed issue #403

Problem

:

• idf.run() obfuscates the filename while running the simulation
• makes it hard to know which file is running in distributed system
  like zeppy

Solution

: add the filename as a suffix to the obfuscated name

release r0.5.61

release r0.5.61

2022-11-26

fixed issue #401

Problem

: idf.run() does a saveas("in.idf") and does NOT go back to original
name

Solution

: do saveas("ranmdomname.idf") and go back to original name

2022-11-25

fixed issue #396

Problem

: documentation "Running EnergyPlus from Eppy" needs updating

Solution

: Updated

2022-11-24

fixed issue # 397

Problem

: runIDFs is hard to debug since temporary files are deleted

Solution

: runIDFs( ... , debug=True) will retain those files

r0.5.60

release r0.5.60

2022-10-09

fixed issue #395

Problem

: dunder of setattr, getattr, setitem, getitem fail for an extensible
field that is not in the IDD

Solution

: updated the dunders to extend the fields in IDD that is in eppy's
memory

dunder = double underscore such as [__setattr__]{.title-ref}

2022-10-07

fixed issue #393

Problem

: idf.newidfobject() will not work if you make it with more extensible
fields than there are in the IDD

Solution

: Increase the extensible fields of the IDD (in memory of eppy) to
match the fields in idf.newidfobject()

fixed issue #394

Problem

: In idf.newidfobject(self, key, aname="", ... **kwargs), aname
is depreceated

Solution

: remove aname form newidfobject

2022-10-06

Fixed issue #391

Problem

: If the IDF files has more extensible fields than the IDD file for an
idfobject, the read will fail

Solution

: Increase the extensible fields of the IDD (in memory) to match the
IDF file. It will not change the [Energy+.idd]{.title-ref} on the
disk.

Fixed issue # 386

:Problem: surface.area (for Building:Surface:Detailed) does not work when first 3 points are linear and numpy is installed.
:Solution: This is because numpy does not throw a ZeroDivisionError but raises a RuntimeWarning. Ensure that a ZeroDivisionError is raised in geometry.surface.unit_normal

release r0.5.58

2022-05-04

fixed issue #384

Problem

: surface.area (for Building:Surface:Detailed) does not work when
first 3 points are linear

Solution

: Try the other points until you hit 3 non-linear points. Area will be
calculated if any points are non-linear

fixed issue #368

Problem

: docstrings in modeleditor.py ask for of ALL_CAPS.

made idd path absolute

2021-02-21

fixed issue #326

Problem

: idf = IDF(fname) will fail if isinstance(fname, filepath.Path)

Solution

: update code to read filepath.Path

fixed issue # 315

Problem

: idf.save uses relative path. if the dir is changed, it can save in
the wrong place

Solution

: use absolute path in idf.save

release r0.5.56

2021-02-15

fixed a typo in this file (HISTORY.rst)

release r0.5.55

2021-02-15

• fixed issue #324

Problem

• The EnergyPlus objects can have legal names in the following format
  [Special glass <thickness is 3mm>]{.title-ref}

• Energyplus itself has no problems with such names

This name turns up in the HTML output file.

:   -   In the HTML file the part name\`\<thickness is 3mm>\` looks
        like an HTML tag.
    -   The browser tries to make sense of it and fix it so that
        something can be displayed
    -   This results in a mangled name in the HTML file as viewed in
        the browser

Solution

• Ideally this has to be fixed in Energyplus
• eppy has a stop gap fix
• eppy will ignore any tag within a cell of a table

release r0.5.54

2021-01-10

fixed issue #320

:   -   Problem: eppy.results.readhtml is very slow. Write similar
        function using generators
    -   Solution: functions in eppy.fasthtml use lazy evaluation to
        get the tables quickly. This has been documented in user
        documentation in \"Reading outputs from E+\" and in \"New
        functions\"

release r0.5.57

Emergency release.
Functionality needed by users

release r0.5.53

  clean remove all build, test, coverage and Python artifacts
  clean-build remove build artifacts
  clean-pyc remove Python file artifacts
  clean-test remove test and coverage artifacts
  lint check style with flake8
  test run tests quickly with the default Python
  test-all run tests on every Python version with tox
  coverage check code coverage quickly with the default Python
  docs generate Sphinx HTML documentation, including API docs
