save()

🥒 Added support for arbitrary backends for

pickle.PickleDataSet

🗄️ Added 4 new datasets, including: *

pandas.GenericDataSet

to read/write any format supported by

pandas

*

spark.DeltaTableDataSet

for handling DeltaLake tables ➕ Added support for

sum()

syntax for connecting

Pipeline

objects ⚡ Made some performance optimisations when loading up the catalog 🐛 Fixed some bugs with

kedro pipeline package

and

kedro pipeline pull

🐞 Removed unintentional dependency on

git

See the for more info. 💻 Installation Kedro 0.17.6 is a non-breaking release in the 0.17.x series, upgrade now with:

pip install kedro==0.17.6
conda install -c conda-forge kedro==0.17.6

Regarding 

CVE-2021-44228

 log4j RCE - Kedro supply chain is not affected - Kedro supports PySpark 

pyspark>=2.2, <4.0

 as an optional dependency - All versions of PySpark (and Hive use) use log4j version 

1.2.17

 out of the box - The issue affects versions log4j  

>2.10

 and is fixed in 

2.15.0

- Unless your cluster has manually updated your version of logger you should not be affected (ironically older version helps here)

@here We have worked on this for so long, but it's finally happened! Kedro has been donated to the Linux Foundation! We specifically joined a sub-organisation within the Linux Foundation called LF AI & Data, which is also home to Feast and Amundsen. This change signifies that we're pursuing industry-wide adoption. Some have raised challenges with clients rejecting Kedro because there was a singular dependency on QuantumBlack and McKinsey, which is no longer valid. You will also see an open governance model being phased in. Read more about the changes here: https://www.mckinsey.com/about-us/new-at-mckinsey-blog/mckinsey-donates-open-source-tool-kedro-to-the-linux-foundation

So proud of this team! Excited for the future

We're also up to 4,860 ⭐ on github, fancy getting us to 5K?

kedro 0.17.7

@here We're excited to announce that Kedro 0.18.0 has finally been released! 🎉

TL;DR

In this release we reduce the complexity of the project template to get us closer to a stable release of the framework. We've introduced the full micro-packaging workflow 📦, which allows you to import packages, utility functions and existing pipelines into your Kedro project. Integration with IPython and Jupyter has been streamlined in preparation for enhancements to Kedro's interactive workflow. Additionally, the release comes with long-awaited Python 3.9 and 3.10 support 🐍. Please make sure to trial our experiment tracking workflow in Kedro. ⚠️ There are breaking changes in this release, you can read the full release notes: https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro/releases What can you expect in this release? - The micro-packaging workflow 📦,which allows you to package and export Kedro pipelines, Python packages, utility functions, and modules in your code base, to your choice of Python package repository. - The only recommended way to work with Kedro in Jupyter or IPython is now the Kedro IPython extension. - Reduced boilerplate and complexity of the project template. We have removed

cli.py

from the Kedro project template. - A packaged Kedro project will respect the same hierarchy when executed with

python -m my_package

. - Added Python 3.9 and 3.10 support 🐍 .Dropped support for Python 3.6. - Refactored the load and save operations for

pandas

datasets in order to leverage

pandas

own API and delegate

fsspec

operations to them. This reduces the need to have our own

fsspec

wrappers, like in previous versions. How do I get access to the latest release? Get the latest version of Kedro with

pip install kedro == 0.18.0

and await being able to install Kedro from Conda with

Hi @here! This is a quick announcement that Kedro 0.18.1 is out. It’s available on PyPI and Conda. This version has several bug fixes and major improvements including: 🐛 Bug fixes: - Fixed

CONFIG_LOADER_CLASS

validation so that `TemplatedConfigLoader `can be specified in settings.py. Any

CONFIG_LOADER_CLASS

must be a subclass of

AbstractConfigLoader

. - Fixed

Jinja2

syntax loading with

TemplatedConfigLoader

using globals.yml. - Removed global

_active_session

,

_activate_session

and

_deactivate_session

. Plugins that need to access objects such as the config loader should now do so through context in the new

after_context_created

hook. - Made

hook_manager

argument optional for runner.run. - kedro docs now opens an online version of the Kedro documentation instead of a locally built version. 🚀 Major features: - Added a new hook

after_context_created

that passes the

KedroContext

instance as

context

. - Added a new CLI hook

after_command_run

. - The Kedro package no longer contains a built version of the Kedro documentation significantly reducing the package size 🐳 You can find the full list of changes in the release notes: https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro/blob/main/RELEASE.md Kedro 0.18.1 is a non-breaking release in the 0.18.x series, upgrade now with:

Hi @here! This is a quick announcement that Kedro 0.18.2 is out and is available on PyPI and Conda > TL;DR This release is special because we've worked on improving Databricks Repos support and improved the CLI experienced by adding in pretty logging to the CLI with Rich and reducing the kedro new prompts to one question. This version also has several bug fixes and improvements: 🚀 Major features: - Kedro now uses the Rich library to format terminal logs and tracebacks. - The file

conf/base/logging.yml

is now optional. See our documentation for details. - Introduced a

kedro.starters

entry point. This enables plugins to create custom starter aliases used by

kedro starter list

and

kedro new

. - Reduced the

kedro new

prompts to just one question asking for the project name. 🐛 Bug fixes: - Bumped

pyyaml

upper bound to make Kedro compatible with the

pyodide

stack. - Kedro's framework-side logging configuration no longer performs file-based logging. Hence superfluous `info.log`/`errors.log `files are no longer created in your project root, and running Kedro on read-only file systems such as Databricks Repos is now possible. - Required

cookiecutter>=2.1.1

to address a known command injection vulnerability. - The session store no longer fails if a username cannot be found with

getpass.getuser

. - Added generic typing for

AbstractDataSet

and

AbstractVersionedDataSet

as well as typing to all datasets. To make the most of our new rich logging you can either delete

conf/base/logging.yml

if it has not been customised, or add

rich.logging.RichHandler

to the logging handlers. See the logging documentation for more. You can find the full list of changes in the release notes: https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro/blob/main/RELEASE.md Kedro 0.18.2 is a non-breaking release in the 0.18.x series, upgrade with:

Hey Admins and Moderators, We've got an update on all things Community today! If you haven't joined our Discord Admin Community… what are you waiting for? Head over to Server Setting > Community overview and join us — we've got a slew of exciting and fun stuff planned that you won’t want to miss out on. 🪴 __*Below is a sneak peek at the Stage events we’ve got cookin’!*__ August 16th: Safety on Discord August 25th: Utilizing Automod in your Community To join our Discord Admin Community, your server will need to hit a few engagement requirements. Once your community reaches the requirements listed , any of your Admins or Moderators with the “Manage Server” permission will be able to join the Discord Admin Community via Server Settings > Community. 📚 __**Community Resources**__ We recently released our Community Resources, a one-stop shop for learning how to build, engage, grow, and manage a space where anyone can belong. New articles, showcases, and more will be added in the future, so be sure to bookmark it for later. If you haven't already taken a peek at some of our content, you can check out the latest video! https://dis.gd/H2M_Your_Discord_Community 🤖 __Apps & Bots__ If your server uses a verified app, the way you send commands has probably changed in the last year - if it hasn’t, it may very soon! Developers of verified apps have been migrating to Slash Commands. The deadline to finish migrating is the end of August, which means on Sept 1, any apps that haven’t finished may have reduced functionality. If you haven’t tried out slash commands yet, type / in your server to see all the commands you have access to. If your favorite app isn’t listed, they may not yet have enabled slash commands. Or, you might need to check out the new permissions system in Server Settings > Integrations. If you run across any issues, you can reach out to individual app developers to find out more.

Hey Admins and Mods! In our mission to help you keep your communities safe and lift some of that moderation work off your shoulders, we’ve set our sights on helping you more easily detect and prevent spam and raids. Today's spotlight introduces new features that help keep your communities cleaner from spam, and a preview into our early plans on building tools to deal with raids. Keep your Community clean from spam with new AutoMod spam filters We know dealing with spammy messages sucks. If only there was a way spammy messages could be blocked from being posted in your channels and threads in the first place… Thankfully, every community’s best friend in moderation - AutoMod - just got buffed with some new spam-cleansing abilities. Enable AutoMod in Server Settings > AutoMod to save hours of moderation work with these new filters: **Block Mention Spam** - Detect and block mention spam and mention raids before they happen to keep chat clean and prevent members in your community from receiving annoying mention notifications and ghost pings. Set your own limit on the number of mentions a message may contain (up to 50). Block Spam Content - Detect and block messages containing text content that has been widely flagged as spam by user reports. Great for blocking unwanted spam like those pesky free Nitro scams, unsolicited advertisements, and invite spam that disrupt your Community's friendly conversations and game nights. Check out our updated AutoMod FAQ help article: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/4421269296535-AutoMod-FAQ Our early plans and progress to protect communities from raids We know being raided is one of the worst experiences you and your Community can go through which is why we’re giving you a heads up that we’re exploring ways to better detect and prevent raids before they take place, while making it easier to de-escalate a raid when they do happen. While we’re in the earlier stages of progress here at Discord Labs™, rest assured we’re eager to equip you with effective tools to more easily deal with raids as quickly as we can. So what can you do now? **Report Raids**: You can now directly send us feedback reports when a raid is taking place in your server by going to your Server Dropdown and selecting Report Raid. If your Community is being raided, we encourage you to partner with us in our moderation efforts by reporting the situation as we’ll be regularly reviewing your raid reports to develop tooling that combat raids. Pause invitations to your Community at anytime - You can now pause your invite links for when you want to temporarily prevent people from joining your server without having to revoking your invite links or vanity URLs - just head over to Server Settings > Invites. Because this cuts off the flow of new arrivals, you'll have an easier time halting a raid in progress. It also lets well-intentioned community members trying to join know that the stoppage is temporary, and that soon, they’ll be able to come back to the same link and try again. Learn more about pausing invites: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/8458903738647 *How we’re protecting communities from suspicious links: * To help y’all with the legwork in dealing with messages containing malicious links, we’ve buffed every Community server with a proactive suspicious link filter designed to detect and block messages containing links that are verified to be harmful, such as those leading to malware or phishing sites that try to steal people’s personal or financial information. We’ll be continuously working on identifying links that might mislead or redirect users by reviewing a regularly updated list of unsafe and phishing websites: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/7326747355159-Why-was-my-message-not-delivered-
