• pyudev.Context, pyudev.Enumerator, pyudev.Device and pyudev.Monitor can now directly be passed to ctypes-wrapped functions
• #24: Added pyudev.Context.run_path

0.9 (Mar 09, 2011)

• #21: Added pyudev.Device.find_parent()
• #22: Added pyudev.Monitor.filter_by_tag()
• Added pyudev.Context.log_priority to control internal UDev logging

0.8 (Jan 08, 2011)

New features

• #16: Added pyudev.Enumerator.match() to simplify device filtering
• Added keyword arguments to pyudev.Context.list_devices() to simplify device filtering
• #19: Added pyudev.Enumerator.match_sys_name() to match device names
• #18: Added pyudev.udev_version() to query the version of the underlying udev library
• #17: Added support for initialization status, by
  • pyudev.Device.is_initialized,
  • pyudev.Device.time_since_initialized and
  • pyudev.Enumerator.match_is_initialized()

Fixed issues

• Fixed support for earlier releases of udev
• Minimum udev version is now documented for all affected attributes

0.7 (Nov 15, 2010)

New features

• #15: Added pyudev.glib.GUDevMonitorObserver for Glib and Gtk support

0.6 (Oct 03, 2010)

New features

• #8: Added pyudev.Device.tags and pyudev.Enumerator.match_tag() to support device tags
• #11: Added pyudev.Device.from_environment() to create devices from process environment (for use in udev rules)
• #5: Added pyudev.pyside for PySide support

Other changes

• #14: Removed apipkg dependency. Changes the pyudev namespace, consequently pyudev.pyqt4.QUDevMonitorObserver requires prior import pyudev.pyqt4 now.
• Fixed licence headers in source files

0.5 (Sep 06, 2010)

New features

• Support for Python 3
• #6: Added pyudev.Device.attributes and pyudev.Attributes to access the attributes of a device (thanks to Daniel Lazzari for his efforts)
• #7: pyudev.Device.context and pyudev.Monitor.context are part of the public API now
• #9: Added pyudev.Device.driver to access the driver name
• #12: Added pyudev.Device.from_name() to construct devices from subsystem and sys name

API changes

• Renamed pyudev.NoSuchDeviceError to pyudev.DeviceNotFoundError
• pyudev.Device.from_sys_path() raises pyudev.DeviceNotFoundAtPathError now, which derives from pyudev.DeviceNotFoundError

Fixed issues

• #13: Fixed AttributeError in pyudev.Device.device_node

Other changes

• Improved and extended documentation at some points
• Added more tests

0.4 (Aug 23, 2010)

API changes

• Preferred import scheme is import pyudev now, all library classes will be available under the pyudev namespace then.
• #3: Renamed udev to pyudev
• #3: Renamed qudev to pyudev.pyqt4
• Added pyudev.Device.from_path()
• pyudev.Device.from_sys_path() raises pyudev.NoSuchDeviceError now, if no device was found at the given path.
• pyudev.Monitor.receive_device() raises EnvironmentError now, if libudev did not return a device object, but a null pointer.
• pyudev interprets libudev error codes whereever possible now. Consequently EnvironmentError exceptions raised by pyudev classes mostly have proper errno, strerror and filename attributes now.

Fixed issues

• Fixed NameError in pyudev.Monitor.from_socket()
• The subsystem argument to pyudev.Monitor.filter_by() is mandatory now, as the underlying API requires it.
• Fixed possible memory leak: pyudev.Device objects now delete the underlying libudev object, when garbage-collected
• Fixed broken signal emitting in pyudev.pyqt4.QUDevMonitorObserver

0.3 (Jul 28, 2010)

• #1: Fixed documentation to reflect the actual behaviour of the underlying API
• >, >=, < or <= raise TypeError now, if used on udev.Device objects.
• added udev.Enumerator.match_children() and udev.Device.children to list direct children of a device
• added qudev.QUDevMonitorObserver.deviceChanged() and qudev.QUDevMonitorObserver.deviceMoved()

0.2 (Jun 28, 2010)

• added udev.Monitor to support event monitoring
• added udev.Device.asbool() and udev.Device.asint()
• removed type magic in udev.Device.__getitem__()
• added qudev to for PyQt4 integration

0.1 (May 03, 2010)

• Initial release
• added udev.Context
• added udev.Device
• added udev.Enumerator
