Banff Processor release notes#

2025-March-07 (Version `2.0.2`)#

Fixed bug where every proc in a jobs file was expected to exist, rather than just the procs which are called in the active job sequence
New input parameters added
- “indata_hist_filename”, “indata_aux_filename” and “instatus_hist_filename”
- Intended to replace the previous “histdata_filename”, “auxdata_filename” and “histstatus_filename” though one or the other may be used until they are fully deprecated
Fixed bug disallowing process controls using the same controlid, parameter and targetfile but different values
Clarification regarding the use of on-disk tables in value fields of process controls has been added to the Processor User Guide

Documentation:
- Various minor updates
- French version of metadata-tables.md has been added
Dependencies:
- Duckdb and Pyarrow versions are now bound below 2 and 19, respectively, as a result of compatibility issues with pyarrow version 19 and the available versions of pandas and duckdb

The initial production release of the Python version of the Banff Processor.
