====
Exceptions
    - `DataAPIResponseException.error_descriptors` is a property (computed from detailed_error_descriptors)
    - better string representation of `DataAPIDetailedErrorDescriptor`
Spawner methods for databases/admins standardized; they don't issue DevOps API calls.
    - removed `normalize_region_for_id` utility method, not used anymore.
    - `AstraDBAdmin.get_[async]_database()`:
        - does not run DevOps API calls anymore (for missing keyspace/region);
        - defers defaults to the [Async]Database class consistently;
        - removed `database_admin_timeout_ms`, `request_timeout_ms`, `timeout_ms` parameters;
        - `region` now required if `id` passed instead of endpoint.
    - `AstraDBDatabaseAdmin.get[_async]_database()`:
        - removed `database_admin_timeout_ms`, `request_timeout_ms`, `timeout_ms` parameters.
    - `AstraDBDatabaseAdmin.get_database_admin()` standardized and simplified:
        - does not run DevOps API calls anymore (for missing keyspace/region);
        - removed `database_admin_timeout_ms`, `request_timeout_ms`, `timeout_ms` parameters;
        - `region` now required if `id` passed instead of endpoint.
Support for Astra DB "custom domain" endpoints for database
    - in which case: `.id`, `.region`, `.get_database_admin()`, `.info()` and `.name()` aren't available.
Table indexes:
    - Support for the `indexType` field to describe table indexes (for compatibility, said field is not mandatory).
    - 'column' argument for create[Vector]Index table metods is now positional (after index name)
Collections write path now obeys the binary-encoding API Option (which in turn defaults to True. Formerly bin-encoding was always turned off.)
DataAPITime: support for "hh:mm" no-seconds format.
DataAPIDuration: improved parse performance by caching regexpes.
DataAPIDuration: support for "P4W"-type strings and for zeroes such as "P", "-PR".
Replaced the ValueErrors not directly coming from function calls/constructors with more appropriate exceptions.
Collection and Table `insert_many` methods employ returnDocumentResponses under the hood.
maintenance: switch to DSE6.9 for local non-Astra testing.

v 2.0.0rc1
==========
Support for TIMEUUID and COUNTER columns:
    - enlarged ColumnType enum (used by the API to describe non-creatable columns)
    - readable through find/find_one operations (now returned by the API when reading)
shortened string representation of table column descriptors for improved readability
added 'filter' to the `TableAPISupportDescriptor` structure (now returned by the Data API)
added optional `api_support` member to all column descriptor (as the Data API returns it for various columns)
restore support for Python 3.8, 3.9
maintenance: full restructuring of tests and CI (tables+collections on same footing+other)
maintenance: adopt `blockbuster` in async tests to detect (and bust) any blocking call

v 2.0.0-preview
===============
Introduction of full Tables support.
Major revision of overall interface including Collection support.

Introduced new astrapy-specific data types for full expressivity (see `serdes_options` below):
    - `DataAPIVector` data type
    - `DataAPIDate`, `DataAPITime`, `DataAPITimestamp`, `DataAPIDuration`
    - `DataAPISet`, `DataAPIMap`

Typing support for Collections (optional):
    - `get_collection` and `create_collection` get a `document_type` parameter to go with the type hint `Collection[MyType]`
    - if unspecified fall back to `DefaultCollection = Collection[DefaultDocumentType]` (where `DefaultDocumentType = dict[str, Any]`)
    - cursors from `find` also allow strict typechecking

Introduced a consistent API Options system:
    - an APIOptions object inherited at each "spawn" operation, with overrides
    - environment-dependent defaults if nothing supplied
    - `serdes_options` to control data types accepted for writes and to select data types for reads
    - `serdes_options`: Collections default to using custom types for lossless and full-range expression of database content
        - `serdes_options.binary_encode_vectors`, to control usage of binary-encoding for writing vectors.
        - e.g. instead of 'datetime.datetime', instances of `DataAPITimestamp` are returned
        - Exception: numbers are treated by default as ints and floats. To have them all Decimal, set serdes_option.use_decimals_in_collections to True.
        - Use the options' serdes_option to opt out and revert to non-custom data types
        - For datetimes, fine control over naive-datetime tolerance and timezone is introduced. Usage of naive datetime is now OPT-IN.
    - Support for arbitrary 'database' and 'admin' headers throughout the object chain
    - Fully reworked timeout options through all abstractions:
        - `TimeoutOptions` has six classes of timeouts, applying differently to various methods according to the kind of method. Timeouts can be overridden per-method-call
        - removal of the 'max_time_ms` parameter ==> still a quick migration path is to replace it with `timeout_ms` throughout
        - timeout of 0 means that timeout is disabled

Reworked and enriched `FindCursor` interface:
    - Cursors are typed, similarly to Tables and Collections. The `find` method has an optional `document_type` parameter for typechecking.
    - Cursor classes renamed to `[Async]CollectionCursor`
    - Base class for all (find) cursors renamed to `FindCursor`
    - introduced `map` and `to_list` methods
    - `cursor.state` now has values in `FindCursorState` enum (take `cursor.state.value` for a string)
    - 'cursor.address' is removed from the API
    - `cursor.rewind()` returns None, mutates cursor in-place
    - removed 'cursor.distinct()': use the  corresponding collection(/table) method.
    - removed cursor '.keyspace' property
    - removed 'retrieved' for cursors: use `consumed`
    - added many cursor management methods (see docstrings for details)

Other changes to existing API:
    - `Database.create_collection`: signature change (now accepts a single "collection definition")
        - added parameter `definition` to method (a CollectionDefinition, plain dictionary or None)
        - (support for `source_model` vector index setting within the `definition` parameter)
        - removed 'dimension', 'metric', 'source_model', 'service', 'indexing', 'default_id_type' (all of them subsumed in `definition`)
        - removed parameters 'additional_options' and 'timeout_ms' as part of the broader timeout rework
    - renamed 'CollectionOptions' class to `CollectionDefinition` (return type of `Collection.options()`):
        - renamed its 'options' attribute into `definition` (although the API payload calls it "options")
        - removed its 'raw_options' attribute (redundant w.r.t `CollectionDescriptor.raw_descriptor`)
        - `CollectionDefinition`: implemented fluent interface to build collection definition objects
    - renamed `CollectionVectorServiceOptions` class to `VectorServiceOptions`
    - renamed `astrapy.constants.SortDocuments` to `SortMode`
    - renamed (collection-specific) "Result" classes like this:
        - 'DeleteResult' ==> `CollectionDeleteResult`
        - 'InsertOneResult' ==> `CollectionInsertOneResult`
        - 'InsertManyResult' ==> `CollectionInsertManyResult`
        - 'UpdateResult' ==> `CollectionUpdateResult`
    - signature change from `-> {"ok": 1}` to `-> None` for some admin and schema methods:
        - `AstraDBAdmin`: `drop_database` (+ async)
        - `AstraDBDatabaseAdmin`, `DataAPIDatabaseAdmin`: `create_keyspace`, `drop_keyspace`, `drop` (+ async)
        - `Database`, `AsyncDatabase`: `drop_collection`, `drop_table`
        - `Collection`, `AsyncCollection`: `drop`
    - renamed parameter 'collection_name' to `collection_or_table_name` and allow for `keyspace=None` in database `command()` method
    - [Async]Database `drop_collection` method now accepts a keyspace parameter.
    - `AsyncDatabase` methods `get_collection` and `get_table` are not async functions anymore (remove the await when calling them)
    - the following "info" methods are made async (= awaitable): `AsyncDatabase.info`, `AsyncDatabase.name`, `AsyncCollection.info`, `AsyncTable.info`, `AsyncDatabase.list_collections`, `AsyncDatabase.list_tables`
    - Database info structure: changed class name and reworked attributes of `AstraDBAdminDatabaseInfo` (formerly 'AdminDatabaseInfo') and `AstraDBDatabaseInfo` (formerly 'DatabaseInfo')
    - `[Async]Collection` and `[Async]Database`: `info` method now accepts the relevant timeout parameters
    - remove 'check_exists' from `[Async]Database.create_collection` method (the client does no checks now)
    - removed AstraDBDatabaseAdmin's `from_api_endpoint` static method (reason: unused)
    - remove 'database' parameter to the `to_sync()` and `to_async()` conversion methods for collections
    - `[Async]Database.drop_collection` method accepts only the string name of the target to drop (no collection objects anymore)
    - removed the 'CommandCursor'/'AsyncCommandCursor' classes:
        - `AstraDBAdmin`: `list_databases`, `async_list_databases` methods return regular lists
        - `[Async]Database`: `list_collections`, `list_tables` methods return regular lists
    - `[Async]Database`: added a `.region` property

Exceptions hierarchy reworked:
    - removed 'CursorIsStartedException': now `CursorException` raised for all state-related illegal calls in cursors
    - removed 'CollectionNotFoundException', replaced by a ValueError in the few cases it's needed
    - removed `CollectionAlreadyExistsException` class (not used anymore without `check_exists`)
    - introduced `InvalidEnvironmentException` for operations invalid on some Data API environments.
    - renamed 'InsertManyException' ==> `CollectionInsertManyException`
    - renamed 'DeleteManyException' ==> `CollectionDeleteManyException`
    - renamed 'UpdateManyException' ==> `CollectionUpdateManyException`
    - renamed 'DevOpsAPIFaultyResponseException' ==> `UnexpectedDevOpsAPIResponseException`
    - renamed 'DataAPIFaultyResponseException' ==> `UnexpectedDataAPIResponseException`
    - (improved string representation of DataAPIResponseException cases with multiple error descriptors)

Removal of deprecated modules, objects, patterns and parameters:
    - 'core' (i.e. pre-1.0) library
    - 'collection.bulk_write' and the associated result and exception classes
    - 'vector=', 'vectorize=' and 'vectors=' parameters from collection methods
    - 'set_caller' method of `DataAPIClient`, `AstraDBAdmin`, `DataAPIDatabaseAdmin`, `AstraDBDatabaseAdmin`, `[Async]Database`, `[Async]Collection`
    - 'caller_name' and 'caller_version' parameters. A single list-of-pairs `callers` is now expected
    - 'id' and 'region' to DataAPIClient's 'get_database' (and async version). Use `api_endpoint` which is now the one positional parameter.
    - Accordingly, the syntax `client[api_endpoint]` also does not accept a database ID anymore.
    - 'region' parameter of `AstraDBDatabaseAdmin.get[_async]_database` (was ignored already in the method)
    - 'namespace' parameter of several methods of: DataAPIClient, admin objects, Database and Collection (use `keyspace`)
    - 'namespace' property of CollectionInfo, DatabaseInfo, CollectionNotFoundException, CollectionAlreadyExistsException (use `keyspace`)
    - 'namespace' property of `Database` and `Collection` (switch to `keyspace`)
    - 'update_db_namespace' parameter for keyspace admin methods (use `update_db_keyspace`)
    - 'use_namespace' for `Databases` (switch to `use_keyspace`)
    - 'delete_all' method of `Collection` and `AsyncCollection` (use `delete_many({})`)

API payloads are encoded with full Unicode (not encoded in ASCII anymore) for HTTP requests

- Revision of all "spawning and copying" methods for abstractions. Parameters added/removed/renamed (switch to the corresponding parameters inside the APIOptions instead of the removed keyword parameters):
    - All the client/admin/database/table/collection classes have an `api_options` parameter in their `with_options/to_[a]sync` method
    - `DataAPIClient`
        - `_copy()`, `with_options()`: removed 'callers'
        - `get_..._database...()`: removed 'api_path', 'api_version'

    - `AstraDBDatabaseAdmin`
        - `_copy()`: removed 'api_endpoint', 'environment', 'dev_ops_url', 'dev_ops_api_version', 'api_path', 'api_version', 'callers'
        - `with_options()`: removed 'api_endpoint', 'callers'
        - `get..._database()`: removed 'api_path', 'api_version', 'database_request_timeout_ms', 'database_timeout_ms'; renamed 'database_api_options' => `spawn_api_options`
    - `DataAPIDatabaseAdmin`
        - `_copy()`: removed 'api_endpoint', 'environment', 'api_path', 'api_version', 'callers'
        - `with_options()`: removed 'api_endpoint', 'callers'
        - `get..._database()`: removed 'api_path', 'api_version', 'database_request_timeout_ms', 'database_timeout_ms'; renamed 'database_api_options' => `spawn_api_options`

        - `to_[a]sync()`: removed 'database', 'name', 'keyspace', 'request_timeout_ms', 'table_timeout_ms', 'callers'

Internal restructuring/maintenance things:
    - (not user-facing) classes in the hierarchy other than `DataAPIClient` have breaking changes in their constructor (now options-first and keyword-arg-only)
    - Token and Embedding API key coercion into `*Provider` now happens at the Options' init layer
    - `[Async]Collection.find_one` method uses the actual findOne API command
    - rename main branch from 'master' ==> `main`
    - major restructuring of the codebase in directories (some internal-only imports changed; reduced the scope of `test_imports`)
    - removal of unused imports from toplevel `__init__.py` (ids, constants, cursors)
    - simplified timeout management classes and representations

v. 1.5.2
========
Bugfix: `Database.get_collection` uses callers inheritance (same for async)


v. 1.5.1
========
Switching to endpoint as the only/primary way of specifying databases:
    - AstraDBClient tolerates (deprecated, removal in 2.0) id[/region] in get_database
    - (internal-use constructors and utilities only accept API Endpoint)
    - AstraDBAdmin is the only place where id[/region] will remain an allowed path in 2.0
    - all tests adapted to reflect this simplification
Admins: resilience against DevOps responses omitting 'keyspace'/'keyspaces'
AstraDBAdmin: added filters and automatic pagination to [async_]list_databases
Consistent handling of deletedCount=-1 from the API (always returned as-is)
Cursors: alignment and rework
    - states are an enum; state names reworked for clarity (better cursor `__repr__`)
    - _copy and _to_sync methods always return a clean pristine cursor
    - "retrieved" property deprecated (removal 2.0). Use `consumed`.
    - "collection" property deprecated (removal 2.0). Use `data_source`.
Deprecation of all `set_caller` (=> to be set at constructor-time) (removal in 2.0)
Callers and user-agent string:
    - remove RAGStack automatic detection
    - Deprecate caller_name/caller_version parameters in favour of "callers" pair list
    - (minor) breaking change: passing only one of caller_name/caller_version to _copy/with_options will override the whole one-item callers pair list
Repo housekeeping
    - using ruff for imports and formatting (instead of isort+black) by @cbornet
    - add ruff rules UP(pyupgrade) by @cbornet
    - remove `cassio` unused dependency


v. 1.5.0
========
Deprecation of "namespace-" terminology, replaced by "keyspace-" (removal in 2.0)
    - deprecation of all *namespace* method names
    - deprecation of the `namespace=` named argument to all methods
    - deprecation of the `update_db_namespace` parameter to create_*space
Deprecation of collection bulk_write method (removal in 2.0)
APICommander logs warnings received from the Data API
Full removal of "core library" from the current API:
    - DevOps API accessed through APICommander everywhere
    - Admin objects use APICommander consistently
    - [Async]Database and [Async]Collection directly use APICommander
    - Cursor library uses APICommander directly
    - Core library imports triggers a submodule-wide deprecation warning
    - (simplification of the vector/vectorize deprecator utility)
Widened exception hierarchy with:
    - DevOpsAPIHttpException
    - DevOpsAPITimeoutException
    - DevOpsAPIFaultyResponseException
Rearrangement into separate modules for:
    - constants, strings, magic numbers and settings
    - request low-level tools
    - payload/response transformations
    - (sometimes with temporary duplication to avoid depending on 'core')
Testing:
    - testing on HCD targets Data API v 1.0.16
    - added tests for APICommander
    - improved tests for admin classes
Logging of API requests made more uniform and easier to read
Replaced collections.abc.Iterator => typing.Iterator for python3.8 compatibility


v. 1.4.2
========
Method 'update_one' of [Async]Collection: now invokes the corresponding API command.
Better URL-parsing error messages for the API endpoint (with guidance on expected format)
Improved __repr__ for: token/auth-related items, Database/Client classes, response+info objects
DataAPIErrorDescriptor can parse 'extend error' in the responses
Introduced DataAPIHttpException (subclass of both httpx.HTTPStatusError and DataAPIException)
testing on HCD:
    - DockerCompose tweaked to invoke `docker compose`
    - HCD 1.0.0 and Data API 1.0.15 as test targets
relaxed dependency on "uuid6" to most recent releases
core:
    - prefetched find iterators: fix second-thread hangups in some cases (by @cbornet)
    - added 'options' parameter to [Async]AstraDBCollection.update_one


v. 1.4.1
========
FindEmbeddingProvidersResult and descendant dataclasses:
    - add handling of optional 'hint' and 'displayName' fields for parameters
    - knowedge of optional-as-null vs optional-as-possibly-absent ancillary fields
Replace bson dependency with pymongo (#297, by @caseyclements)


v. 1.4.0
========
DatabaseAdmin classes retain a reference to the Async/Database instance that spawned it, if any
    - introduced a spawner_database parameter to database admin constructors
    - database admin can retroactively set the db's working namespace upon creation of same
    - Idiom `database = client.get_database(...); database.get_database_admin().create_namespace("the_namespace", update_db_namespace=True)`
Database (and AsyncDatabase) classes admit null namespace:
    - default to "default_keyspace" only for Astra, otherwise null
    - as long as null, most operations are unavailable and error out
    - a `use_namespace` method to (mutably) set the working namespace on a database instance
AstraDBDatabaseAdmin class is fully region-aware:
    - can be instantiated with an endpoint (also `id` parameter aliased to `api_endpoint`)
    - requires a region to be specified with an ID, unless auto-guess can be done
VectorizeOps: support for find_embedding_providers Database method
Support for multiple-header embedding api keys:
    - `EmbeddingHeadersProvider` classes for `embedding_api_key` parameter
    - AWS header provider in addition to the regular one-header one
    - adapt CI to cover this setup
Testing:
    - restructure CI to fully support HCD alongside Astra DB
    - add details for testing new embedding providers


v. 1.3.1
========
Fixed bug in parsing endpoint domain names containing hyphens (#287), by @bradfordcp
Added isort for source code formatting
Updated abstractions diagram in README for non-Astra environments


v. 1.3.0
========
Integration testing covers Astra and nonAstra smoothly:
    - idiomatic library
    - vectorize_idiomatic
    - nonAstra admin, i.e. namespace crud
Add the TokenProvider abstract class => and StaticTokenProvider, UsernamePasswordTokenProvider
Introduce CHANGES file.
Add __eq__ and _copy methods to APICommander class
Allow delete_many({}) with empty filter

Added HCD and CASSANDRA Environment values (besides the other non-Astra DSE and OTHER)
Clearer string repr of cursors ('retrieved' => 'yielded so far')
Deprecation of collection delete_all method in favour of delete_many(filter={})
    Introduction of a custom deprecation decorator for async method removal tests
Deprecation of vector,vectors and vectorize params from collections and Operations
Remove several long-deprecated methods from **core API** (i.e. internal changes):
    AstraDBCollection.delete          => delete_one
    AstraDBCollection.upsert          => upsert_one
    AsyncAstraDBCollection.upsert     => upsert_one
    AstraDB.truncate_collection       => AstraDBCollection.clear
    AsyncAstraDB.truncate_collection  => AsyncAstraDBCollectionclear
Add support for null tokens in the core library


v. 1.2.1
========
Raise default chunk size for insert_many to 50
Improvements in docstrings, testing, support for latest responses from vectorize.


v. 1.2.0
========
Non-Astra environment awareness:
    astrapy.constants.Environment enum for the "environment" parameter to client, etc
    flexibility and adaptive defaults for data api url
    environment knowledge trickles throughout all classes (client, admins, databases)
    DataAPIDatabaseAdmin class (i.e. for namespace CRUD)
(internal) astrapy.api_commander.APICommander
(internal) astrapy.api_options.{BaseAPIOptions, CollectionAPIOptions}
$vectorize support:
    "service options" for creating/retrieving collections, covering $vectorize needs
    embedding_api_key parameter to collection (for "header" usage)
collection-level timeout parameter (overridable in single method calls)
expand "projection" type to include slice projections
client.get_database can accept an API endpoint directly
insert_many and bulk_write default to ordered=False


v. 1.1.0
========
Adds estimated_document_count method to Collection class.

(prior to 1.0.0)
================
What is now dubbed the "core API" and is not supposed to be used directly at all.
