v0.5.0

• Added make_run_as fixture (#82). A new pytest fixture, make_run_as, has been added to create an account service principal via the acc fixture and assign it to a workspace with default permissions, which is removed after the test is complete. The fixture creates a service principal with a random display name and assigns it to the workspace. Users can optionally assign the service principal to account groups for specific actions using the account_groups argument. The returned object contains properties for the workspace client, SQL backend, and SQL execution functions, as well as the display name and application ID of the ephemeral service principal. If desired, the ws fixture can be overridden to make all workspace fixtures provided by the plugin run as the ephemeral service principal, allowing for testing with lower privilege ephemeral service principals and improving security and isolation. This feature is not currently supported with Databricks Metadata Service authentication on Azure Databricks.
• Bump codecov/codecov-action from 4 to 5 (#85). In this release, the Codecov GitHub Action has been updated from version 4 to 5, introducing several new features and changes. The new version uses the Codecov Wrapper to encapsulate the CLI, allowing for quicker updates to the Action. Additionally, version 5 includes an opt-out feature for tokens in public repositories, enabling contributors and other members to upload coverage reports without requiring access to the Codecov token. This can be accomplished by setting the ability for Codecov to receive a coverage report from any source in the Global Upload Token section of the settings page on codecov.io. Furthermore, the updated version introduces several new arguments, including binary, gcov_args, gcov_executable, gcov_ignore, gcov_include, report_type, and skip_validation, and changes the file and plugin arguments to files and plugins, respectively.
• Bump databrickslabs/sandbox from acceptance/v0.3.1 to 0.4.2 (#80). In this release, the databrickslabs/sandbox dependency has been updated from version acceptance/v0.3.1 to 0.4.2. This update includes the addition of install instructions, more go-git libraries, and modifications to the README to explain how to use the library with the databricks labs sandbox command. Dependency updates include golang.org/x/crypto from version 0.16.0 to 0.17.0. The Run nightly tests job in the workflow has also been updated to use the new version of the databrickslabs/sandbox/acceptance image. The commit history for this release shows several commits, including the creation of "[TODO] XXX" issues and a full diff comparison. The pull request includes instructions for triggering Dependabot actions through comments. Reviewers are encouraged to thoroughly examine the changelog and commit history for more detailed information on the changes in this release.
• Force keyword argument in make_query fixture (#81). In the latest update, the make_query fixture in the redash.py file has undergone changes to enhance code readability and maintainability. The sql_query parameter is now required to be passed as a keyword argument, preventing the possibility of it being mistakenly passed as a positional argument. Furthermore, the create function's signature has been revised to include an explicit * before the sql_query parameter. It is important to note that these changes have not affected the functionality of the method, but have instead altered the parameter passing style for improved clarity. This minor update is intended to elevate the overall quality of the codebase and promote best practices.
• Renamed internal notebooks module to workspace (#86). In this release, the internal notebooks module has been renamed to workspace to better reflect its current functionality of managing and interacting with notebooks and other resources in a Databricks workspace. This renaming applies to the import statements in plugin.py and test_notebooks.py, which has been renamed to test_workspace.py. Additionally, import statements for making cluster policy and instance pool permissions have been added. The functionality of the imported functions, such as make_directory, make_workspace_file, make_notebook, and make_repo, remains unchanged. This change is part of the fix for issue #59 and aims to improve the clarity and consistency of the codebase. Software engineers adopting this project should update any imports or references to the notebooks module to use the new workspace module instead.
