Published by xi on 2011-06-21
The first release candidate for the 2.1 release is now available.
Changes since the last beta:
- Added /:tsv formatter that generates output in tab-separated format
(thank to Andrey Popp).
- A lot of updates to the tutorial, the reference and other documentation.
- Minor code updates and bug fixes.
The documentation changes include:
- We completely revamped the HTRAF Toolkit Reference.
- We revisited the Tutorial,
editing most sections and adding two new sections that describe 2.1
features: Calculations & References,
Projections.
- We revisited the Overview,
which now includes two new sections:
HTSQL in a Nutshell,
Why not SQL?.
- We started work on a Reference.
- We added a Gallery with
examples of HTSQL queries and HTRAF dashboards for several datasets.
Major changes since the 2.0 release:
- Added MySQL, Oracle and MS SQL Server backends, in addition to
existing SQLite and PostgreSQL backends.
- Added support for projections (see Introducing Projections).
- Added support for calculated attributes and references (see
Introducing Calculated Attributes and
Introducing References).
- Streamlined HTSQL grammar and semantics, added support for time and
datetime data types, and many other improvements.
