  • Development layout is now src/natsort/ instead of natsort/

5.3.0 - 2018-04-20

Added

  • Ability to consider unicode-decimal numbers as numbers (issues #52 and #54)

5.2.0 - 2018-02-14

5.1.1 - 2017-11-11

Added

  • Additional unicode number support for Python 3.7
  • Information on how to install and test (issue #46)

5.1.0 - 2017-08-19

Added

  • chain_functions function for convenience in creating a complex user-given key from several existing functions

Changed

  • ns.LOCALE/humansorted now accounts for thousands separators (issue #36)
  • Refactored entire codebase to be more functional (as in use functions as units). Previously, the code was rather monolithic and difficult to follow. The goal is that with the code existing in smaller units, contributing will be easier (issue #37)
  • Increased speed of execution (came for free with the new functional approach because the new factory function paradigm eliminates most if branches during execution). For the most cases, the code is 30-40% faster than version 4.0.4. If using ns.LOCALE or humansorted, the code is 1100% faster than version 4.0.4
  • Improved clarity of documentation with regards to locale-aware sorting

Deprecated

  • ns.TYPESAFE option as it is now always on (due to a new iterator-based algorithm, the typesafe function is now cheap)

Changed

  • Improved coverage of unit tests
  • Unit tests use new and improved hypothesis library

Fixed

  • Compatibility issues with Python 3.5

4.0.3 - 2015-06-25

Fixed

  • Bad install on last release (sorry guys!) (issue #30)

4.0.2 - 2015-06-24

Changed

  • Consolidated under-the-hood compatibility functionality

Fixed

  • Python 2.6 and Python 3.2 compatibility. Unit testing is now performed for these versions (@dpetzold, issue #29)

4.0.1 - 2015-06-04

Added

  • Support for sorting NaN by internally converting to -Infinity or +Infinity (issue #27)

4.0.0 - 2015-05-17

Changed

  • Made default behavior of natsort search for unsigned ints, rather than signed floats. This is a backwards-incompatible change but in 99% of use cases it should not require any end-user changes (issue #20)
  • Improved handling of locale-aware sorting on systems where the underlying locale library is broken (issue #34))
  • Greatly improved all unit tests by adding the hypothesis library

3.5.6 - 2015-04-06

Added

  • UNGROUPLETTERS algorithm to get the case-grouping behavior of an ordinal sort when using LOCALE (issue #23)
  • Convenience functions decoder, as_ascii, and as_utf8 for dealing with bytes types

3.5.5 - 2015-04-04

Added

  • realsorted and index_realsorted functions for forward-compatibility with >= 4.0.0

Changed

  • Made explanation of when to use TYPESAFE more clear in the docs

  • Bug where a TypeError was raised if a string containing a leading number was sorted with alpha-only strings when LOCALE is used (issue #22)

3.5.3 - 2015-03-26

Changed

  • Documentation updates to better describe locale bug, and illustrate upcoming default behavior change
  • Internal improvements, including making test suite more granular

Fixed

  • Bug where --reverse-filter option in shell script was not getting checked for correctness

Added

  • A pathlib.Path object is converted to a str if ns.PATH is enabled (issue #16)

3.5.1 - 2014-09-25

Changed

  • Refactored modules so that only the public API was in natsort.py and ns_enum.py
  • Refactored all import statements to be absolute, not relative

Fixed

  • Bug that caused list/tuples to fail when using ns.LOWECASEFIRST or ns.IGNORECASE (issue #15)

3.5.0 - 2014-09-02

Added

  • alg argument to the natsort functions. This argument accepts an enum that is used to indicate the options the user wishes to use. The number_type, signed, exp, as_path, and py3_safe options are being deprecated and will become (undocumented) keyword-only options in natsort version 4.0.0
  • The humansorted convenience function as a convenience to locale-aware sorting
  • The user can now modify how natsort handles the case of non-numeric characters (issue #14)
  • The user can now instruct natsort to use locale-aware sorting, which allows natsort to perform true "human sorting" (issue #14)
  • Locale functionality to the shell script

3.4.1 - 2014-08-12

Changed

  • natsort will now use the fastnumbers module if it is installed. This gives up to an extra 30% boost in speed over the previous performance enhancements
  • Made documentation point to more natsort resources, and also added a new example in the examples section

3.4.0 - 2014-07-19

Added

  • natsort_keygen function that will generate a wrapped version of natsort_key that is easier to call. natsort_key is now set to deprecate at natsort version 4.0.0
  • as_path option to natsorted & co. that will try to treat input strings as filepaths. This will help yield correct results for OS-generated inputs like ['/p/q/o.x', '/p/q (1)/o.x', '/p/q (10)/o.x', '/p/q/o (1).x'] (issue #3)
  • order_by_index function to help in using the output of index_natsorted and index_versorted
  • reverse option to natsorted & co. to make it's API more similar to the builtin 'sorted'
  • More unit tests
  • Auxiliary test code that helps in profiling and stress-testing
  • Support for coveralls.io

Changed

  • Massive performance enhancements for string input (1.8x-2.0x), at the expense of reduction in speed for numeric input (~2.0x) - note that sorting numbers
    still only takes 0.6x the time of sorting strings
  • Entire codebase is now PyFlakes and PEP8 compliant
  • Reworked the documentation, moving most of it to PyPI's hosting platform

Fixed

  • Bug that caused user's options to the natsort_key to not be passed on to recursive calls of natsort_key (issue #12)

3.3.0 - 2014-06-28

Added

  • versorted method for more convenient sorting of versions (issue #11)
  • Unit test coverage (99%)

Changed

  • Updated command-line tool --number_type option with 'version' and 'ver' to make it more clear how to sort version numbers
  • Moved unit-testing mechanism from being docstring-based to actual unit tests in actual functions (issue #10)
  • Made docstrings for public functions mirror the README API
  • Connected natsort development to Travis-CI to help ensure quality releases

3.2.1 - 2014-06-20

Fixed

  • Re-"Fixed" unorderable types issue on Python 3.x - this workaround is for when the problem occurs in the middle of the string (issue #7 again)

3.2.0 - 2014-05-07

Fixed

  • "Fixed" unorderable types issue on Python 3.x with a workaround that attempts to replicate the Python 2.x behavior by putting all the numbers (or strings that begin with numbers) first (issue #7)

Removed

  • Now explicitly excluding __pycache__ from releases by adding a prune statement to MANIFEST.in

3.1.2 - 2014-05-05

Added

  • setup.cfg to support universal wheels (issue #6)
  • Python 3.0 and Python 3.1 as requiring the argparse module

3.1.1 - 2014-03-01

Added

  • Ability to sort lists of lists (issue #5)

Changed

  • Cleaned up import statements

3.1.0 - 2014-01-20

Added

  • signed and exp options to allow finer tuning of the sorting
  • Doctests
  • New shell script options that correspond to signed and exp
  • In the shell script the user can now specify multiple numbers to exclude or multiple ranges

Changed

  • Entire codebase now works for both Python 2 and Python 3 without needing to run 2to3
  • Updated all doctests
  • Further simplified the natsort base code by removing unneeded functions.
  • Simplified documentation where possible
  • Improved the shell script code
  • Made the shell script documentation less "path"-centric to make it clear it is not just for sorting file paths

Removed

  • The shell script filesystem-based options because these can be achieved better though a pipeline by which to filter

3.0.2 - 2013-10-01

Changed

  • Made float, int, and digit searching algorithms all share the same base function
  • Made the __version__ variable available when importing the module

Fixed

Changed

  • Reworked the documentation

2.2.0 - 2013-06-25

Added

  • key attribute to natsorted and index_natsorted so that it mimics the functionality of the built-in sorted (issue #1)
  • Tests to reflect the new functionality, as well as tests demonstrating how to get similar functionality using natsort_key

2.1.0 - 2012-12-05

Changed

  • Reorganized package
  • Now using a platform independent shell script generator (entry_points from distribute)

Added

  • Tests into the natsort.py file itself

Changed

  • Reorganized directory structure

2.0.0 - 2012-11-16

Added

  • Better README documentation
  • Doctests

Changed

  • Sorting algorithm to support floats (including exponentials) and basic version number support
