Release Notes

2023.XX.X

Features

• The py-mount attribute on HTML elements has been deprecated, and will be removed in a future release.

<script type="py">

• Added the ability to optionally use <script type="py">, <script type="pyscript"> or <script type="py-script"> instead of a <py-script> custom element, in order to tackle cases where the content of the <py-script> tag, inevitably parsed by browsers, could accidentally contain HTML able to break the surrounding page layout. (#1396)

<py-terminal>

• Added a docked field and attribute for the <py-terminal> custom element, enabled by default when the terminal is in auto mode, and able to dock the terminal at the bottom of the page with auto scroll on new code execution.

<py-script>

• Restored the output attribute of py-script tags to route sys.stdout to a DOM element with the given ID. (#1063)
• Added a stderr attribute of py-script tags to route sys.stderr to a DOM element with the given ID. (#1063)

<py-repl>

• The output attribute of py-repl tags now specifies the id of the DOM element that sys.stdout, sys.stderr, and the results of a REPL execution are written to. It no longer affects the location of calls to display()
• Added a stderr attribute of py-repl tags to route sys.stderr to a DOM element with the given ID. (#1106)
• Resored the output-mode attribute of py-repl tags. If output-mode == 'append', the DOM element where output is printed is not cleared before writing new results.
• Load code from the attribute src of py-repl and preload it into the corresponding py-repl tag by use the attribute str in your py-repl tag(#1292)

Plugins

• Plugins may now implement the beforePyReplExec() and afterPyReplExec() hooks, which are called immediately before and after code in a py-repl tag is executed. (#1106)

Web worker support

• introduced the new experimental execution_thread config option: if you set execution_thread = "worker", the python interpreter runs inside a web worker
• worker support is still very experimental: not everything works, use it at your own risk

Bug fixes

• Fixes #1280, which describes the errors on the PyRepl tests related to having auto-gen tags that shouldn't be there.

Enhancements

• Py-REPL tests now run on both osx and non osx OSs
• migrated from rollup to esbuild to create artifacts
• updated @codemirror dependency to its latest

Docs

• Add docs for event handlers
