Changelog¶

Development¶

[#433] Rewrite of trend chart outlier detection
- Added a “statistic” selector that allows the selection of “measurement” or “isolation forest”
- Remove outlier detection from normal measurement plot, because the normal assumption is not reasonable
- The isolation forest statistic plots the multivariate outlier score in a non-parametric way, with an adjustable threshold
[#440] Set up poetry to manage the dependencies, which might keep the dependencies from breaking down, and reduce the chances of the happening of issues such as [#430]
[#443]
- Dropped support for Python 3.6, added support and testing for Python <= 3.11
- Added docker-compose logging in the CI
- Stopped using Meinheld workers in the Docker image, since this is largely unmaintained
- Fix a bug in the database script when constructing URLs that broken under new SQLAlchemy versions
- Bump pytest
- Fix a bug in pytest where we used scope as a positional argument
- Update the SubFactoryList to a new version that works with newer FactoryBoy versions

[#138] Added USER_REGISTRATION_APPROVAL as a config variable, which defaults to true. This means that the admin must explicitly activate new users in the user management page (/users/admin/users) before they can login. To disable this feature, you need to create a config file (for example megaqc.conf.yaml) with the contents:
```
STRICT_REGISTRATION: false
```
Then, whenever you run MegaQC, you need to export MEGAQC_CONFIG /path/to/megaqc.conf.yaml
Much stricter REST API permissions. You now need an API token for almost all requests. One exception is creating a new account, which you can do without a token, but it will be deactivated by default, unless it is the first account created
Dropped support for Node 8

[#139] Fixed the user management page (/users/admin/users), which lost its JavaScript
[#148] Explicitly disable pagination for find() calls, ensuring we get more than 30 results in certain places
[#156] Fixed comparison plot running into comparisons with None values
[#170] Improved handling of environment variables with environs
[#194] Forward more headers through nginx when using Docker Compose. This should avoid bad HTTP redirects.
