User visible changes in FITSHeaders package

Version 0.4.1

  • Update compatibility for TypeUtils.

Version 0.4.0

  • Package renamed as FITSHeaders.

  • Undefined FITS card value is undef (was missing). When creating a FITS card, missing is considered as undef.

  • Comparison operators (==, !=, <, >, ≤, and ≥) can be applied to FITS card values. The other operand may also be a card value.

  • Logical value stored as an integer in FitsCard. This is an internal change.

Version 0.3.11

  • Update doc.

  • Submitted as an official Julia package.

Version 0.3.10

  • Extend haskey for FitsHeader objects.

Version 0.3.9

  • "TFIELDS", "TFORM#", "TTYPE#", and "TDIM#" are also structural keywords.

Version 0.3.8

  • New non-exported methods: BaseFITS.is_structural and BaseFITS.is_naxis to respectively check whether a FITS card or keyword is a structural or axis one.

Version 0.3.7

Version 0.3.6

  • Package is compatible with Julia 1.0.

  • Avoid returning number of bytes written in show.

  • Date-time format is ISO-8601 as specified by FITS standard.

Version 0.3.5

  • Fix creating FITS cards from pairs of type Pair{<:CardName,<:Any} which may be the type of the objects in some collections, such as vectors, used to represent FITS header. Non-exported BaseFITS.CardPair{K<:CardName,V} is an alias for such pair types.

Version 0.3.4

  • Provide support for dates: Card values of type Dates.DateTime are automatically converted into string values and, conversely, calling card.value(DateTime), convert(DataTime,card.value), and DateTime(card.value) attempts to convert the string value of card into a date.

Version 0.3.3

  • Use AsType package.

  • Remove CompatHelper.

Version 0.3.2

  • Fix silly bug in keyword comparison.

Version 0.3.1

  • Use quick table for character class.

Version 0.3.0

  • Package renamed BaseFITS.jl.

  • FitsHeader can be built from list of header cards, list of pairs, and named tuples. Here "list" means any iterable producing items of a given type. The same types are allowed for merge and merge! applied to a FITS header.

  • Non-exported constants CarName, CardValue, CardComment, and Undefined to help converting a pair into a FITS header card.

  • BaseFITS.keyword and BaseFITS.check_keyword can take a symbolic name as argument.

Version 0.2.1

  • Can search cards in FITS header by regular expressions.
  • Implement merging of headers with merge and merge!.
  • length(eachmatch(pat,hdr::FitsHeader)) yields number of matches.
  • Some bug fixes.

Version 0.2.0

  • Package renamed FITSBase.jl.
  • To avoid collisions with FITSIO.jl types are prefixed by Fits instead of FITS.

Version 0.1.1

  • Package name FITSCards.jl.
  • Add FITSHeader structure.
  • New card properties: card.units and card.unitless.
