v0.35.0: Fix lint error found by flake8 in GitHub action. :kissing_heart: (#686)

What's New

This release is geared towards the replacement of RASCIL in Karabo. RASCIL has been used many years as one of the simulation backends for the calculation of visibilities and dirty images. Since it is no longer maintained, its functionality has been implemented by the SKA Data Processor package (ska-sdp). However, the RASCIL API is still available in this release. But we will deprecate it with the next one.

Have a look at the demo notebook Sky_Simulation_SDP.ipynb. It shows how to use the new SDP API.

What's Changed

• Rascil to sdp (cohabitation) by @LongPointyEyes in #681
• Sky models can now be generated from FITS file. This feature is in beta, and may not work as expected. This is due to the version of the ska-sdp package. Because Karabo still runs with Python 3.10, we could not use the latest version of ska-sdp yet. This is going to change with the next release.
• We now distinct between the simulation backend (SimulationBackend as before) for the calculation of visibilities and the imaging backend (new ImagingBackend), that is used for the creation of dirty images.

New Contributors

• @LongPointyEyes made their first contribution in #681
