Version 1.7.0

Configuration

• We added support for a user configuration file that can be used to overwrite values in the default configuration.

Package

• Require Python 3.9 or later

• Uploaded package to PyPi, which means you can now install ICOc via:

  pip install icoc

Scripts

• We removed the clean-repo command

Hardware Tests

• The SMH, STH and STU tests now store the PDF test report in the current working directory

ICOc

• The command now stores log files inside the current working directory

ICOn

Config

• The new subcommand config can be used to open the user configuration file.

Measurement

• Add the possibility to change the measurement duration (option -t, --time)
• Store data in HDF5 format

STU

• Add reset command

Style

• We now use Black instead of YAPF to format the code base, since Black:
  • supports the latest Python features (e.g. match/case and except*) and
  • splits long strings (experimental feature).

Tests

• We added two (very basic) Prysk tests for the command line tool icon

Internal

ADC

• We added methods to read the

  • prescaler,
  • acquisition time,
  • oversampling rate and
  • the sample rate

  of ADC configuration objects (class ADCConfiguration).

Network

• Collected streaming data now also contains the message counter value
• Fixed reading data from multiple channels

Streaming Data

• We added the method default, which can be used to serialize data (into JSON format)

Storage

• We added the method add_streaming_data, which can be used to directly add StreamingData objects to the (HDF5) storage.
