6.0.0a0 (2024-07-03)

Minor changes:

  • Test that all code works with both pytz and zoneinfo.
  • Add message to GitHub release, pointing to the changelog
  • Make coverage report submission optional for pull requests
  • Parallelize coverage
  • Rename master branch to main, see Issue

  • Update list of tox environments
  • Use Coveralls' GitHub Action
  • Check distribution in CI

Breaking changes:

  • Use zoneinfo for icalendar objects created from strings, see Issue #609.

    This is an tested extension of the functionality, not a restriction: If you create icalendar objects with pytz timezones in your code, icalendar will continue to work in the same way. Your code is not affected.

    zoneinfo will be used for those objects that icalendar creates itself. This happens for example when parsing an .ics file, strings or bytes with from_ical().

    If you rely on icalendar providing timezones from pytz, you can add one line to your code to get the behavior of versions below 6:

    import icalendar
icalendar.use_pytz()

  • Replaced pkg_resources.get_distribution with importlib.metadata in docs/conf.py to allow building docs on Python 3.12.

  • Remove is_broken property. Use errors instead to check if a component had suppressed parsing errors. See Issue 424.

  • Remove untested and broken LocalTimezone and FixedOffset tzinfo sub-classes, see Issue 67

  • Remove Python 3.7 as compatible. icalendar is compatible with Python versions 3.8 - 3.12, and PyPy3.

  • Remove pytz as a dependency of icalendar. If you require pytz, add it to your dependency list or install it additionally with:

    pip install icalendar==6.* pytz

New features:

  • Check code quality with Ruff, optional report
  • Test compatibility with Python 3.12
  • Add function icalendar.use_pytz().
  • Allows selecting components with walk(select=func) where func takes a component and returns True or False.
  • Add compatibility to RFC 7529, adding vMonth and vSkip
  • Add sphinx-autobuild for livehtml Makefile target.
  • Add pull request preview on Read the Docs, building only on changes to documentation-related files.
  • Add link to pull request preview builds in the pull request description only when there are changes to documentation-related files.
  • Add documentation of live HTML preview of documentation and clean up of install.rst.
  • Add sphinx-copybutton to allow copying code blocks with a single click of a button.

  • Remove ability to add property parameters via a value's params attribute when adding via cal.add (that was only possible for custom value objects and makes up a strange API), but support a parameter attribute on cal.add's method signature to pass a dictionary with property parameter key/value pairs. Fixes #116. [thet]
  • Backport some of Regebro's changes from his regebro-refactor branch. [thet]
  • Raise explicit error on another malformed content line case. [hajdbo]

  • Support for non-ascii parameter values. Fixes #88. [warvariuc]
  • Added functions to transform chars in string with '\' + any of r',;:' chars into '%{:02X}' form to avoid splitting on chars escaped with '\'. [warvariuc]

  • Allow setting of timezone for vDDDLists and support timezone properties for RDATE and EXDATE component properties. [thet]
  • Move setting of TZID properties to vDDDTypes, where it belongs to. [thet]
  • Use @staticmethod decorator instead of wrapper function. [warvariuc, thet]
  • Extend quoting of parameter values to all of those characters: ",;: â��'". This fixes an outlook incompatibility with some characters. Fixes: #79, Fixes: #81. [warvariuc]
  • Define VTIMETZONE subcomponents STANDARD and DAYLIGHT for RFC5545 compliance. [thet]

3.2 (2012-11-27)

  • Documentation file layout restructuring. [thet]

  • Correctly handle tzinfo objects parsed with dateutil. Fixes #77. [warvariuc, thet]
  • Text values are escaped correclty. Fixes #74. [warvariuc]
  • Returned old folding algorithm, as the current implementation fails in some cases. Fixes #72, Fixes #73. [warvariuc]

  • Allow UTC-OFFSET property value data types in seconds, which follows RFC5545 specification. [nikolaeff]
  • Remove utctz and normalized_timezone methods to simplify the codebase. The methods were too tiny to be useful and just used at one place. [thet]
  • When using Component.add() to add icalendar properties, force a value conversion to UTC for CREATED, DTSTART and LAST-MODIFIED. The RFC expects UTC for those properties. [thet]
  • Removed last occurrences of old API (from_string). [Rembane]
  • Add 'recursive' argument to property_items() to switch recursive listing. For example when parsing a text/calendar text including multiple components (e.g. a VCALENDAR with 5 VEVENTs), the previous situation required us to look over all properties in VEVENTs even if we just want the properties under the VCALENDAR component (VERSION, PRODID, CALSCALE, METHOD). [dmikurube]
  • All unit tests fixed. [mikaelfrykholm]

3.0.1b2 (2012-03-01)

  • For all TZID parameters in DATE-TIME properties, use timezone identifiers (e.g. Europe/Vienna) instead of timezone names (e.g. CET), as required by RFC5545. Timezone names are used together with timezone identifiers in the Timezone components. [thet]
  • Timezone parsing, issues and test fixes. [mikaelfrykholm, garbas, tgecho]
  • Since we use pytz for timezones, also use UTC tzinfo object from the pytz library instead of own implementation. [thet]

3.0.1b1 (2012-02-24)

  • Update Release information. [thet]

3.0

  • Add API for proper Timezone support. Allow creating ical DATE-TIME strings with timezone information from Python datetimes with pytz based timezone information and vice versa. [thet]
  • Unify API to only use to_ical and from_ical and remove string casting as a requirement for Python 3 compatibility: New: to_ical. Old: ical, string, as_string and string casting via __str__ and str. New: from_ical. Old: from_string. [thet]

2.2 (2011-08-24)

2.1 (2009-12-14)

  • Fix deprecation warnings about object.__init__ taking no parameters.
  • Set the VALUE parameter correctly for date values.
  • Long binary data would be base64 encoded with newlines, which made the iCalendar files incorrect. (This still needs testing).
  • Correctly handle content lines which include newlines.

2.0.1 (2008-07-11)

  • Made the tests run under Python 2.5+
  • Renamed the UTC class to Utc, so it would not clash with the UTC object, since that rendered the UTC object unpicklable.

2.0 (2008-07-11)

  • EXDATE and RDATE now returns a vDDDLists object, which contains a list of vDDDTypes objects. This is do that EXDATE and RDATE can contain lists of dates, as per RFC.

    *Note!*: This change is incompatible with earlier behavior, so if you handle EXDATE and RDATE you will need to update your code.

  • When createing a vDuration of -5 hours (which in itself is nonsensical), the ical output of that was -P1DT19H, which is correct, but ugly. Now it's '-PT5H', which is prettier.

1.2 (2006-11-25)

  • Fixed a string index out of range error in the new folding code.

1.1 (2006-11-23)

  • Fixed a bug in caselessdicts popitem. (thanks to Michael Smith <[email protected]>)
  • The RFC 2445 was a bit unclear on how to handle line folding when it happened to be in the middle of a UTF-8 character. This has been clarified in the following discussion: http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/ietf-calsify/2006-August/001126.html And this is now implemented in iCalendar. It will not fold in the middle of a UTF-8 character, but may fold in the middle of a UTF-8 composing character sequence.

1.0 (2006-08-03)

  • make get_inline and set_inline support non ascii codes.
  • Added support for creating a python egg distribution.

0.11 (2005-11-08)

  • Changed component .from_string to use types_factory instead of hardcoding entries to 'inline'
  • Changed UTC tzinfo to a singleton so the same one is used everywhere
  • Made the parser more strict by using regular expressions for key name, param name and quoted/unquoted safe char as per the RFC
  • Added some tests from the schooltool icalendar parser for better coverage
  • Be more forgiving on the regex for folding lines
  • Allow for multiple top-level components on .from_string
  • Fix vWeekdays, wasn't accepting relative param (eg: -3SA vs -SA)
  • vDDDTypes didn't accept negative period (eg: -P30M)
  • 'N' is also acceptable as newline on content lines, per RFC

0.10 (2005-04-28)

  • moved code to codespeak.net subversion.

  • reorganized package structure so that source code is under 'src' directory. Non-package files remain in distribution root.

  • redid doc/.py files as doc/.txt, using more modern doctest. Before they were .py files with big docstrings.

  • added test.py testrunner, and tests/test_icalendar.py that picks up all doctests in source code and doc directory, and runs them, when typing:

    python2.3 test.py

  • renamed iCalendar to lower case package name, lowercased, de-pluralized and shorted module names, which are mostly implementation detail.

  • changed tests so they generate .ics files in a temp directory, not in the structure itself.
