- Update CHANGELOG.md
- Update to bundled capnproto-1.0.1
* Compiles with capnproto-0.8.0 and higher
- *Breaking Change* Remove allow_cancellation (see
https://capnproto.org/news/2023-07-28-capnproto-1.0.html)
* This is tricky to handle for older versions of capnproto. Instead of
dealing with lots of complication, removing it entirely.
- Fix some documentation after the build backend support was added
- Update tox.ini to support 3.8 to 3.12
- Update cibuildwheel to 2.16.1
* Adds Python 3.12 supports and implicitly deprecates EOL 3.7 (though it's
still built)
* Use cibuildwheel in ci
`cibuildwheel` is a system that automatically compiles and repairs wheels for
many python versions and architectures at once. This has some advantages vs the
old situation:
- Macosx wheels had inconsistent minimum versions ranging between 10.9 and
11.0. I'm not sure why this happens, but for some users this means they have
to build from source on macosx. With cibuildwheel, the build is
consistent, with 10.9 as the minimum for x86 and 11.0 for arm64.
- Consolidation between the packaging tests and manylinux tests.
- Addition of musllinux targets and additional cross-compilation to ppc64le and
s390x.
- With cibuildwheel, new python versions should be automatically picked up.
- Separation of the sdist build and lint checks. There is not reason to run that
many times.
All possible build targets succeed, except for ARM64 on Windows. The upstream
capnp build fails. I've disabled it.
The cross-compilation builds on linux are pretty slow. This could potentially be
sped up by separating the builds of manylinux and musllinux, but I'm not sure if
it's worth the extra complexity. (One can also contemplate disabling these
targets.)
Tests for macosx arm64 cannot be run (but also couldn't be run in the previous
system. This should be remedied once apple silicon becomes available on the CI.
I've also added some commented-out code that can automatically take care of
uploading a build to PyPi when a release is created. One might contemplate using this.
* Set CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES for arm64 and disable universal2
