v0.10.4

[0.10.4] - 2025-10-21

Added

• #874: Modules can now specify required Python version in <SystemRequirements> in module.xml
• #909: IPM now warns when Python 3.13 or higher is installed (IRIS incompatibility)
• #850: Re-added <SystemSetting> Resource Processor for backwards compatibility
• #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

• #899: Fixed CLI parser parses modifiers incorrectly
• #299: Prevent Japanese (and other UNICODE) characters from being garbled when outputting unit test results
• #819: Drastically increase zpm "info" speed when many dependent packages have been installed
• #888: Fixed zpm "list -tree" showing packages as [missing] because of case mismatch
• #58: Prevent uninstallation of dependent module without -force flag
• #908: Fix case where uninstall -all would fail because of incomplete dependency information
• #892: Fixed load behavior (no longer sets Developer Mode unless -dev flag is set)
• #903: Fixed install behavior which succeeded even when trying to reinstall a module without -dev or -force modifiers (breaking change)
• #363: help load and help install will now mention that setting the dev flag will not roll back transactions on failure
• #884: Fix missing module version in error message when dependency resolution fails to find suitable version
• #838: Improve error messages when installation fails
• #924: Make "module" parameter not required for "uninstall" command so -all modifier works
• #928: zpm "info" now recognizes existence of configured ORAS registries
• #930: Fix issue where load didn't work on GitHub URLs

Changed

• #639: All modules installed in developer mode can now be edited, even if they do not contain "snapshot" in the version string
• #706: load now only accepts absolute paths
• #278: Modules will now be installed at a well-defined default location: $System.Util.DataDirectory()/ipm/<packagename>/<version>/
• #374: A new System Expression ${ipmdir} points to the module's default installation location: $System.Util.DataDirectory()/ipm/<packagename>/<version>/
• #563: The verify phase will uninstall all modules after every integration test
• #611, #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.
• #844: If the "NameSpace" attribute isn't specified for a Web Application, it will be created in the current namespace instead of %SYS
• #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
