Kedro-viz

Major features and improvements

Please note that release >=3.8.0 will not work with projects created with older versions of Kedro<=0.16.6. Please migrate your project to Kedro>=0.17.0 before you install the latest version of Kedro-Viz.

- Finish the new node metadata side panel. This feature is no longer hidden behind a flag, and the 'meta' flag has been removed. (293, 309, 312, 320, 321, 326, 295, 329, 333)
- Enable the new graphing layout algorithm by default, and remove the 'newgraph' feature flag. If necessary, you can still revert back to the old layout algorithm by enabling the 'oldgraph' flag. (334, 335)
- Add experimental flagged feature to allow lazy-loading of sidebar node-list rows on scroll. This improves performance by not forcing the app to render the entire node-list on larger graphs. This feature is disabled by default, but can be enabled using the 'lazy' feature flag. (307)
- Use CSS custom properties for theme colours (301, 319)

Bug fixes and other changes

- Update Kedro-UI to v1.1.4. This enables us to improve webfont-loading detection, add a transition-out for closing the pipeline dropdown, add an active pipeline menu-option border-left colour, and improve accessibility when disabling the pipeline dropdown. (325)
- Support launching a development server against a real pipeline. This is still a work-in-progress, and we will announce when it can be used. (318, 327)
- Unify backend and frontend test data, to help prevent bugs appearing in future due to mismatched API schemas between frontend & backend (298)
- Fix tag list icon hover state styling (316)
- Update various dependency versions via Dependabot (315, 330, 331)
- Fix linters (323)
- Add default fallback response for non-main API calls (328)
- Remove get_project_context(), now that we no longer support old versions of Kedro (<0.15) (324)
- Add a 'private' flag prop, to hide flags for in-development features from the flags console announcement (322)
- Investigate the root cause of nodes being undefined in Safari (310)
- Fix bug that caused missed click on the flowchart (317)
- Change demo.mock to a .json file and update tests (314)
- Disable Python 3.6/3.7 jobs in daily CI workflow (313)
- Batch tag actions to improve performance when toggling multiple tags (308)

Major features and improvements

Major features and improvements

- **BREAKING CHANGE:** Rename default endpoint from `/api/nodes.json` to `/api/main`. This should only affect local JS development. (239, 259)
- Add an interactive minimap to the toolbar (203, 238, 247)
- Add web worker to make the expensive graph layout calculation into an asynchronous action, to prevent it from blocking other tasks on the main thread. (217)
- Focus search bar with Cmd+F/Ctrl+F keyboard shortcuts (261)
- Allow an argument to be passed to loadJsonData, for external use if needed (215)
- Add support for multiple pipelines. This is a work-in-progress, and is currently disabled by default and hidden behind a flag. (192, 215, 216, 221, 254)
