v0.5.0rc1

MyData v0.5.0rc1

• Enhanced progress updates are now available in the system tray icon's tooltip.
• Fixed a bug where MyData could become slow to respond after a large number of datafile lookups. The relevant code has now been moved into a worker thread.
• Fixed a bug where filenames containing ampersands and backticks didn't upload correctly on Windows.
• Fixed a bug where (with no dataset folders matching MyData's filters), MyData's status bar continued to indicate that it was scanning for dataset folders, even though it had already finished.
• Fixed a bug where MyData failed to launch sometimes on Mac OS X.
• Reduced the default value of max retries (for uploads) from 5 to 1 for new MyData installations.

MyData v0.5.0-beta1

• This release introduces automated testing (nosetests), static code analysis (Pylint) and continuous integration (AppVeyor).
• Each time MyData's code is updated, its automated tests will run to ensure that the code changes don't break any existing functionality which is covered by the tests.

v0.5.0-beta1

This release introduces automated testing (nosetests), static code analysis (Pylint) and continuous integration (AppVeyor).

v0.4.0

New functionality includes:

• Scheduling for data folder scans and uploads (e.g. once per day, or every 15 minutes)
• Filters for user/group folder names, dataset folder names and experiment folder names can be specified in the Settings dialog, e.g. "201510" could match "20151015" and "20151022".
• Upgraded OpenSSH binaries (ssh.exe, scp.exe) from OpenSSH 7.1p1 bundled with MyData's Windows distribution are significantly faster for SCP uploads, due to larger buffer sizes being used in OpenSSH's flow control algorithm.

v0.4.0-alpha2

Newer version of OpenSSH binaries in Windows build should speed up SCP uploads.

v0.4.0-alpha1

New features include scheduling, basic filtering, and the ability
to configure automatic startup at runtime, not just in the Windows
setup wizard. All of these new features are described in MyData's
Settings Dialog documentation at
http://mydata.readthedocs.org/en/latest/settings.html
Automatic startup is on by default (see Settings dialog's Advanced
tab), so that scheduled tasks can run. MyData will minimize itself
to the system tray / menu bar by default, unless you're running it
for the first time and need to enter settings. Closing the main
window will minimize to the system tray, rather than exiting.
Use the system tray menu to exit.

Automatic retries for failed uploads are now configurable in the
Settings Dialog's Advanced tab - by default, MyData will retry
up to 5 times for each failed upload.

Status bar now reports number of failed uploads on completion.

Improved handling of large log content. Submit Debug Log now
extracts the beginning and the end (mostly the end) of large debug
logs, so that they can easily by POSTed to a server for analysis.

New notifications when starting and finishing tasks.
