v0.6.0

What's Changed

This release brings some exciting features to pytask! 🥳

Lockfiles

From now on, pytask uses a lockfile named pytask.lock to store the state of tasks, dependencies and products. It is placed at the root of your project directory and should be added to version control. It enables two features

• You can move your project to another machine and continue developing without rebuilding from scratch.
• Use pytask lock to update the lockfile after moving or renaming tasks or integrating externally created products

For backward compatibility, pytask continues to update the state in the old .pytask/pytask.sqlite3 so you can safely downgrade to an older pytask version if necessary (🤞 hopefully not).

Logs

pytask is now able to capture logging and write your logs to files. Use it to capture lots of information about your running tasks while keeping your terminal clean.

Others

• networkx is now an optional dependency enabling faster startup.
• The documentation was migrated to Zensical and has been improved in many ways, for example, a new overview for the CLI.
