v1.1.1

⚠️ Security update

This release mostly updates vulnerable node dependencies (refer to PRs #14-#26).

General

• 📦 Switch to pipenv as package and environment manager.
• 🗑️ Cleanup root directory structure by moving JS plugin configs (i.e., eslintrc, babelrc) to package.json.

CLI

• ✨ Rename pdcli.py to primerdriver.py. Program can now be invoked transparently as primerdriver.

v1.1.0

Welcome to PrimerDriver's first minor version update!

CLI

• Created version.py to handle versioning in compliance with SemVer.
• Fixed a UX snag wherein passing no arguments (i.e., python pdcli.py) causes the program to end non-gracefully. The default behavior now calls the help view instead.
• Fixed a bug where a request from web which results in no valid primers being found raises a TypeError instead of the error string, thereby returning an HTTP code 500.

Web

• The design app as been completely redesigned. Using tighter React.js integration, the app is now an SPA on the landing page.
• The /result endpoint has been deprecated.
• The PrimerDesign API is now exposed on the /api endpoint. Primer design queries can now be performed directly via HTTP POST requests (e.g., using XHRs or curl).

v1.1.0-rc.1

PrimerDriver's first minor version update, release candidate 1. Changes in progress are as follows:

Pipeline

• Switched CI provider to CircleCI.

• Added visual testing c/o Percy.

CLI

• Created version.py to handle versioning in compliance with SemVer.
