2016-04-26 Version 2.0.0rc3 / 0.30.0rc3

Disclaimer:

There is no known breaking changes between 2.0.0RC2 and 2.0.0RC3.

However, we removed several useless parameters for __init__ methods on model classes. If you get an error message like this after migrating to RC3:

TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'type'

or

TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 1 positional argument (2 given)

You can remove the involved parameter safely, as it should not have been there in the first place.

Thank you to rchamorro, drdarshan, hosungs, h_yamaki for their contributions.

2015-05-13 Version 0.11.0

IMPORTANT CHANGE THAT AFFECTS STORAGE:

The API for creating shared access signatures has changed. The new API enables

easy production AND consumption of SAS for blob, queue and table storage.

* To produce a SAS, use generate_shared_access_signature on

BlobService/QueueService/TableService

* To consume a SAS, init BlobService/QueueService/TableService with

account_name & sas_token (no account_key)

* For blob storage, you can now pass a sas_token to make_blob_url

* For blob storage, you can now consume public containers/blobs, init

BlobService/QueueService/TableService with account_name only

(no account_key or sas_token)

See http://azure-sdk-for-python.readthedocs.org/en/latest/storage.html for

more details on using SAS with Azure Storage.

Other changes:

* Create/list/delete job functionality added to SchedulerManagementService

* update_site added to WebsiteManagementService to start/stop web sites

* Target x-ms-version 2014-10-01 for service management

* Add virtual IP fields in Deployment

* Make cloud service create/delete async

* Delete cloud service now supports deleting blobs from storage

* Support for specifying SourceMediaLink for DataVirtualHardDisks

* Fixes for bugs:

Thank you to lmazuel, antonydenyer, zlike-msft, melor and amegianeg for their

contributions.

2015-04-28 Version 0.10.2

* Fixes for bugs:

#338 Version 0.10.0 fails with 'SocketReader' object has no attribute 'tell'

2015-03-13 Version 0.10.0

IMPORTANT CHANGE THAT AFFECTS STORAGE USERS (BLOB, QUEUE, TABLE):

The library now targets x-ms-version '2014-02-14' of the storage REST API.

Previous version of the library targeted '2012-02-12'.

The upgrade to this new version causes some breaking changes for Python SDK users:

* Metrics for blob, queue, table service properties, which used to be accessed

with the 'metrics' field are now accessed via 'hour_metrics' and 'minute_metrics'.

Note that a backwards compatible 'metrics' property was added to redirect access

to 'hour_metrics'.

* Url is no longer returned from list_containers, list_blobs, list_queues.

For blob, you can use the utility function make_blob_url as an alternate

way to get a URL.

See MSDN documentation for details on REST API changes

in '2013-08-15': https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn592124.aspx

in '2014-02-14': https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dd894041.aspx

The other changes in this release are:

* Performance improvements in xml deserialization of storage and service bus

Table storage query_entities is ~25X faster for the maximum of 1000 entities

* Ability to upload and download blobs using multiple connections, along with

retries when a chunk upload/download failure occurs

Controlled via the max_connections, max_retries, retry_wait parameters

* Use get_certificate_from_publish_settings to get a .pem certificate from

your azure publish settings file

* Ability to adjust the global http timeout

* Service bus event hub support (create/update/delete hubs + send events)

* Documentation for API Reference is now available at

http://azure-sdk-for-python.readthedocs.org/en/documentation/index.html

* Fixes for bugs:

#237 Ability to use multiple connections to upload blob chunks in parallel

okaram for their contributions.

2014-11-21 Version 0.9.0

IMPORTANT CHANGE IN BEHAVIOR THAT AFFECTS TABLE STORAGE USERS:

The library now converts any datetime object in an entity to UTC before writing

the value to Azure, and it sets the timezone (tzinfo) to UTC on the entities

it reads from Azure. On a related note, python-dateutil is now an external

dependency.
