Hello, World!

I'm glad to announce this new major version of PyFunceble!

It took me some time, but it's time to release this new version. This version provides a complete different tool. Indeed, the structure and the components of the project are totally different.
The idea of this major version was mainly to review the structure, but it went beyond my expectation thanks to the awesome users and contributors who gave some amazing feedback about PyFunceble(-dev).

One of the most fun I had, among the fix and development of new features, is the implementation of a total automation behind the generation and distribution of the IANA and Public Suffix databases file and the User-Agents. Indeed, before this version, I had to generate them and your own instance of PyFunceble had to fetch it after each release. From now, they are totally automated, and your own instance of PyFunceble will fetch and get the latest one when it judge that it's necessary to update your local version (generally after 24 hours).

This version is also the beginning of a new adventure, some new features and ideas.

Between what you may discover by yourself in this version, there is the support of GitLab CI/CD, IPv6 and even DNS over TCP to just name them.
As a list maintainer, this version provides you a switch which will checks the reputation of the subjects in your list with the help of the AlienVault's public reputation data. I highly invite you to check that as I'm thinking about the inclusion or improvement of reputation data in the future.

As a lot has been fixed, therefore, I'm not going to list them here, but if there are questions about the changes in details or a behavior which changed, please let me know on Keybase!

Let me know what you think or how you use PyFunceble with #PyFunceble on Twitter 😄!

I wish you all the best!

  • A proper logging mechanism for better debugging.
  • PyFunceble now initiate and configure the GIT repository for you under the CI mode.
  • The tests where completely rewritten.
  • You will get some warning and message from the CLI if your configuration are a bit extreme.

  • ... and a lot more to discover!

What is coming?

  • Fix of reported issues.

Migration from 2.x

The migration to 3.x is normally done automatically through the configuration checker.

In some rare case (and before submitting a new issue), you may delete your configuration files (.PyFunceble_production.yaml and .PyFunceble.yaml) first.
