Application Changes

• Added number_digits parameter to :py:meth:wwdtm.panelist.PanelistStatistics.retrieve_statistics_by_id and :py:meth:wwdtm.panelist.PanelistStatistics.retrieve_statistics_by_id to set the number of digits after the decimal separator to round to
  • Default value of the parameter is 5
  • Minimum and maximum supported values for the parameter is 0 and 20

Full Changelog: v3.0.0...v3.1.0

v3.0.0

Version 3.0.0

Application Changes

• The library now requires panelist decimal score columns in the Wait Wait Stats Database and removed all instances of the include_decimal_scores and use_decimal_scores named parameters.

• Added __all__ entries to each of the __init__.py files for the guest, host, location, panelist, pronoun, scorekeeper and show modules
• Added :py:meth:wwdtm.validation.check_database_version that can be used to check if the Wait Wait Stats Database being used meets the minimum required version, 4.7.0.

Development Changes

• Added pydoclint 0.8.4
• Added test for :py:func:wwdtm.database_version that passes through a database connection object
• Removed F401 from tool.ruff.lint.ignore from pyproject.toml
• Updated several entries in pyproject.toml including Project URLs and Classifiers

Documentation Changes

• Added missing document page for tests/test_init.py
• Removed unnecessary docstrings for the __init__() methods
• Replaced Google Fonts with Bunny Fonts as the web font provider for the required IBM Plex fonts
  • For documentation hosted on Read the Docs, this will only apply starting with version 3.0.0. Previous versions will continue to use Google Fonts to source web fonts.
