Wazimap Version History

2.1.0 (09 October 2019)

  • Upgrade to python 3
  • Upgrade to django 2
  • Return fieldtable id from as_dict
  • better object representation of fieldtable object.

2.0.0 (?)

This release of Wazimap introduces some backwards incompatible changes. You WILL need to follow the upgrade steps. Be sure to upgrade to 1.x before upgrading to 2.x.

  • Wazimap now supports multiple releases of a dataset. This means that you can, for example, have two releases of a national census in Wazimap at the same time. You will need to make some changes to how you build profile pages.
  • BREAKING: SimpleTable and FieldTable are now Django models.
  • BREAKING: Table management is now done through the Django admin interface. You must upgrade your existing tables.
  • BREAKING: get_objects_by_geo has been replaced by FieldTable.get_rows_for_geo.

1.1.1 (21 November 2017)

  • FIX another bug for versioned geos for static maps

1.1.0 (23 October 2017)

  • FIX support for versioned geos for static maps

1.0.1 (21 September 2017)

This release of Wazimap introduces some backwards incompatible changes.

  • Support versioned geographies.
  • BREAKING: The Geography model has changed. You must run python manage.py migrate when updating.
  • BREAKING: The method signature of the profile_builder function has changed. It is now called as get_profile(geo, profile_name, request). You will need to update your profile methods to work with a geo object rather than a level and a code. Use geo.geo_level and geo.geo_code instead.
  • BREAKING: Some methods on the GeoData object now take a Geography object rather than a geo_level and a geo_code.
  • BREAKING: The geometry_data setting must include a geography version at the top of the dict. Use '' by default. eg: {'': {'country': 'geo/country.geojson'}}
  • Some methods on the GeoData object now take an optional version parameter.
  • A new method GeoData.get_comparative_geos makes it easier to build the profile page for comparative geographies.
  • FIX: load streetmap tiles over https if necessary
  • FEATURE: site menu
  • FEATURE: use SCSS stylesheets, support customising using SCSS variables.
  • Attribution updates to reflect OpenUp, the new name for Code for South Africa.
