v0.10.4

[isc-tleavitt]

[0.10.4] - 2025-10-21

Added

• Allow specifying the Python version in <SystemRequirements> in module.xml #874: Modules can now specify required Python version in <SystemRequirements> in module.xml
• Add warnings and documentation for Python 3.13+ not being supported #909: IPM now warns when Python 3.13 or higher is installed (IRIS incompatibility)
• Add <SystemSetting> Resource Processor back #850: Re-added <SystemSetting> Resource Processor for backwards compatibility
• Package manager should have an upgrade framework #550: Add a new "update" command and framework to support in-place module updates. install/load of a module to newer version than currently installed will be blocked by default if module has UpdatePackage defined.

Fixed

• CLI parser parses incorrectly. 1) uses "zpm" node for non-custom modifiers 2) stuffs modifier data into incorrect modifier #899: Fixed CLI parser parses modifiers incorrectly
• Japanese characters in unit test results are garbled #299: Prevent Japanese (and other UNICODE) characters from being garbled when outputting unit test results
• zpm "info" is painfully slow #819: Drastically increase zpm "info" speed when many dependent packages have been installed
• List Tree view is too case sensitive #888: Fixed zpm "list -tree" showing packages as [missing] because of case mismatch
• uninstall allows you to remove dependent class #58: Prevent uninstallation of dependent module without -force flag
• uninstall -f -all fails if dependency resolution fails #908: Fix case where uninstall -all would fail because of incomplete dependency information
• Bug - IPM load command always sets loaded module to DevMode, even if -dev flag not specified #892: Fixed load behavior (no longer sets Developer Mode unless -dev flag is set)
• Bug: Running zpm" install" for an existing module without -dev/-force flags succeeds #903: Fixed install behavior which succeeded even when trying to reinstall a module without -dev or -force modifiers (breaking change)
• The entry about the installation of a module that was not installed by interruption in the preload is not deleted #363: help load and help install will now mention that setting the dev flag will not roll back transactions on failure
• Incomplete text when reporting missing dependency #884: Fix missing module version in error message when dependency resolution fails to find suitable version
• ZPM Install failed with not found in any repository #838: Improve error messages when installation fails
• "module" should not be a required parameter on uninstall #924: Make "module" parameter not required for "uninstall" command so -all modifier works
• info command doesn't recognize ORAS registries #928: zpm "info" now recognizes existence of configured ORAS registries
• Allow load to use Github links #930: Fix issue where load didn't work on GitHub URLs

Changed

• Module should not be considered "locked" if it is a non-snapshot module #639: All modules installed in developer mode can now be edited, even if they do not contain "snapshot" in the version string
• load command shouldn't accept relative path #706: load now only accepts absolute paths
• Prescriptive Installation Location #278: Modules will now be installed at a well-defined default location: $System.Util.DataDirectory()/ipm/<packagename>/<version>/
• add ${ipmdir} parameter to manage package related files #374: A new System Expression ${ipmdir} points to the module's default installation location: $System.Util.DataDirectory()/ipm/<packagename>/<version>/
• Integration tests does not delete dummy modules #563: The verify phase will uninstall all modules after every integration test
• Packaging (exporting) operation is not idempotent #611, package command silently reuses a temporary directory #686: If a path is supplied for package, it will now create a temporary subdirectory in that path to export the module into to avoid clashes with any existing files. This subdirectory will be deleted afterwards, leaving just the .tgz file.
• WebApplication tag doesn't take namespace from a namespace it is being installed #844: If the "NameSpace" attribute isn't specified for a Web Application, it will be created in the current namespace instead of %SYS
• Publishing with deployed code in a temporary namespace not working #815: The PrepareDeploy phase has been removed and packaging+publishing of modules with deployed code will happen in the current namespace even in developer mode
