# Changelog

Release notes for `xyzpy`.


(whats-new-1-3-0)=
## v1.3.0 (2026-03-30)

**New features:**

- Add {func}`~xyzpy.cultivate` for handling the entire crop lifecycle (annotate, sow, grow, reap) in one function.
- Add {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.grow_subprocess` for running batches in isolated subprocesses with resource control — supports `gpus` (GPU device pooling via `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES`), `affinities` (CPU pinning via `taskset`), `log` (save stdout/stderr per batch), `num_workers`, `num_threads`, `raise_errors`, and custom `batch_ids` ({issue}`20`)
- Add `xyzpy-grow` CLI entry point for driving {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.grow_subprocess` from the command line
- Add {class}`~xyzpy.RayExecutor` and {class}`~xyzpy.RayGPUExecutor` for Ray-based parallel execution, also usable via `xyzpy-grow --ray`
- Add {func}`~xyzpy.plot.infiniplot.infiniplot` — a new unified plotting interface accessible via `ds.xyz.plot()` that auto-detects plot type (line, scatter, heatmap) from data dimensions - see {doc}`plotting` for details
- Add scatter plot support (`data_var` vs `data_var`) to `xyz.plot`
- Add {func}`~xyzpy.cmoke` (OKLCH-based) and {func}`~xyzpy.cimluv` (HSLuv-based) perceptually uniform single-hue colormap generators
- Add {class}`~xyzpy.MemoryMonitor` context manager for peak memory tracking, plus {func}`~xyzpy.get_peak_memory_usage`, {func}`~xyzpy.report_memory`, and {func}`~xyzpy.report_memory_gpu` utilities
- Add {func}`~xyzpy.visualize_tensor` for visualizing arbitrarily high dimensional tensors via 2D projections
- Add {func}`~xyzpy.format_number_with_error` for nicely formatting numbers with known errors

**Enhancements:**

- Add {func}`~xyzpy.parse_into_cases`, {func}`~xyzpy.find_missing_cases`, and {func}`~xyzpy.is_case_missing` for case-aware dataset filtering, with vectorized internals for large speedups on big parameter spaces
- Add {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.load_batch`, {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.load_result`, {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.save_result` methods for direct batch data access
- Add {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.delete_all` to cleanly remove a crop directory and reset object state
- Add `missing_only` option to {meth}`~xyzpy.Harvester.harvest_combos`
- Allow functions to return plain `dict`, including for mixed cases+combos
- Add `background_color`, `label`, `xticks`, `yticks`, `xticklabels`, `yticklabels` options to `xyz.plot`
- Allow `hlines`/`vlines` to be strings referencing `data_vars` so spans can vary by row and column
- Legend and colorbar improvements in `xyz.plot`
- Export {func}`~xyzpy.neutral_style` and {func}`~xyzpy.get_neutral_style` for matplotlib styling
- Make various SLURM header options optional in {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.grow_cluster`
- Warn instead of erroring on non-picklable constants
- Catch confusing bug when combos involve duplicated values
- Move build to `pyproject.toml` with hatchling + hatch-vcs

**Bug fixes:**

- Fix saving of complex datasets with `engine='netcdf'` ({issue}`15`)
- Fix {meth}`~xyzpy.Crop.reap` with incomplete crops when the final batch has fewer items than `batchsize`
- Fix for recent `joblib` (`cachedir` → `location` kwarg)
- Fix Ellipsis handling bug in crop preparation
