# Changelog

## 0.7 (2020-10-27)

- Fix compatibility with Astropy 4.X

## 0.6 (2019-10-08)

- Added documentation for reproducing MMTO sun rise/set times [#434]

- Deprecation of `MAGIC_TIME` variable, which used to be returned for targets that don’t rise or set [#435]

- Replace deprecated astroquery service [#431]

- Fix for the broken IERS patch [#418, #425]

- Add `GalacticLatitudeConstraint` to constrain the galactic latitudes of targets. This can be useful for planning surveys for which crowding due to Galactic point sources is an issue. [#413]

- Add `n_grid_points` keyword argument to rise/set/transit functions which allows usersto trade off precision for speed. [#424]

## 0.5 (2019-07-08)

- `observability_table` now accepts scalars as `time_range` arguments, and gives `'time observable'` in this case in the resulting table. [#350]

- Bug fixes [#414, #412, #407, #401]

## 0.4 (2017-10-23)

- Added new `eclipsing` module for eclipsing binaries and transiting exoplanets [#315]

- Fixes for compatibility with astropy Quantity object updates [#336]

- Better PEP8 compatibility [#335]

- Using travis build stages [#330]

## 0.3 (2017-09-02)

- `Observer.altaz` and `Constraint.__call__` no longer returns an (MxN) grid of results when called with M `target``s and N ``times`. Instead, we attempt to broadcast the time and target shapes, and an error is raised if this is not possible. This change breaks backwards compatibility but an optional argument `grid_times_targets` has been added to these methods. If set to True, the old behaviour is recovered. All `Observer` methods for which it is relevant have this optional argument.

- Updates for compatibility with astropy v2.0 coordinates implementation [#311], updates to astropy-helpers [#309], fix pytest version [#312]

## 0.2.1 (2016-04-27)

- Internal changes to the way calculations are done means that astropy>=1.3 is required [#285]

- Fixed bug when scheduling block list is empty [#298]

- Fixed bug in Transitioner object when no transition needed [#295]

- Update to astropy-helpers 1.3.1 [#294] and compatibility fixes for astropy 1.3 [#283]

## 0.2 (2016-09-20)

- Fixed bug arising from changes to distutils.ConfigParser [#177, #187, #191]

- Removed the sites module from astroplan, since it was ported to astropy [#168]

- Removed dependence on PyEphem, now using jplephem for the solar system ephemeris [#167]

- New API for scheduling observations (still in development)

- New `plot_finder_image` function makes quick finder charts [#115]

- Updates to astropy helpers and the package template [#177, #180]
