Release 3.0.0 - Turing 5" display support!

This release comes with Turing 5" displays support!
Many thanks to @alexwbaule @arthurferrai @MrFr1day and everyone that contributed in issues #81 and #90
Please note there is only basic support for now: no video or storage.

Documentation, Theme Editor, Configuration Wizard and Github workflows have been updated to handle 5" devices as well.
This release comes without any breaking changes for 3.5" devices.

Configuration Wizard

In the configuration Wizard, you can now select Turing 5" as your smart screen model.

Themes

Because the display resolution is different for 3.5" displays (320x480) and 5" displays (800x480), themes made previously for 3.5" displays cannot be used on 5" displays.
New 5" themes have been developed and packaged in this release:

When you select Turing 5" in the Configuration Wizard, the theme list is automatically updated to display only compatible themes.

theme.yaml

To create a theme for 5" devices, the format is the same as the 3.5" themes. You can do it manually or using the Theme Editor.
The only property to add to your theme.yaml is:

display:
  DISPLAY_SIZE: 5"

If this property is not in the theme file (to keep compatibility with old/community themes) or if its value is different than 5" then the theme will be for 3.5 displays.

What's Changed

• Support 5 inches devices by @alexwbaule & @arthurferrai in #252
• New themes for 5" displays by @mathoudebine in #253

• @alexwbaule made their first contribution in #252

Release 2.4.0 - config. wizard

What's Changed

Configuration wizard

This release introduces the first version of the Configuration Wizard (#176) in configure.py
It offers an easy way to update the config.yaml file, as well as various checks and constraints on values (theme names, COM ports...) to avoid errors. The selected theme is also displayed as a preview.

This GUI is similar to what is offered by the original Windows program from screen manufacturers, and will offer a serious alternative for beginners wanting to use this program instead!
The wizard also offers a quick way to edit a selected theme from the Theme Editor, and to start the system monitor main program.
Related documentation has been updated.

Other changes

• Auto-commit theme previews on master/release push by @mathoudebine in #173
• text alignment by @cobacdavid in #172
• Allow custom date/time formatting from babel module by @mathoudebine in #174

    DAY: # Format (Y/M/D ordering, month/day translations...) will match your computer locale
      TEXT:
        FORMAT: medium # short (2/20/23) / medium (Feb 20, 2023) / long (February 20, 2023) / full (Monday, February 20, 2023)

    HOUR: # Format (12/24h, timezone translations) will match your computer locale
      TEXT:
        FORMAT: short # short (6:48 PM) / medium (6:48:53 PM) / long (6:48:53 PM UTC) / full (6:48:53 PM Coordinated Universal Time)

• Feature/176 add a configuration gui by @mathoudebine in #177

Release 2.3.2 - ⚠️ breaking changes

Breaking changes

The text box for all text sensors has been reworked to remove top margin.

This results in:

• faster text refresh on screen
• text sensors can be displayed one above the other closer than before

But this has an impact on all previously made themes: some texts are now displayed higher than expected.
Theme files have to be manually edited, and the impacted text Y coordinates have to be increased by few pixels to restore the original theme layout.
Not all texts are impacted: it depends on the font used, and is usually tied to non-monospaced fonts.

All the included themes have already been updated to match the new text box

What's Changed

• fix text bbox height by @cobacdavid in #163
• Fix/fix text bbox height by @mathoudebine in #167
• Clean themes by removing unused entries (will be picked from default.yaml) by @mathoudebine in #168

New Contributors

• @cobacdavid made their first contribution in #163

Full Changelog: 2.3.1...2.3.2

Release 2.3.1

What's Changed

• Add turing-theme-extractor program to extract resources from Turing Windows app themes (.data files) by @mathoudebine in #157
• Catch Windows logoff/shutdown event to do a clean stop, fix Ctrl+C for Windows by @mathoudebine in #166

Full Changelog: 2.3.0...2.3.1

Release 2.3.0 - Theme Editor

What's Changed

This new release comes with a Theme Editor to easily create/update themes for Turing System Monitor.
When started, the theme-editor.py program will open the selected theme YAML file in your default editor associated to .yaml files (e.g. Notepad++, VS Code...)
It will also open an always-on-top window displaying a preview of the selected theme with stubbed data.

Whenever the theme.yaml file is updated, the preview window will reload the theme with the new changes.
It is much faster than having to stop/restart the Turing System Monitor to see new changes!
