0.3.2

Bug fixes:

• No longer install configuration file in custom prefix. #25
• Browse magic now works when only the in range is specified. #12

0.3.1

• Drop the temporary Stata program temp_pystata_kernel_program_name before its creation. This fixes the program temp_pystata_kernel_program_name already defined r(110); error.

0.3.0

• Ported the new error handling mechanism from nbstata.
• Better handling of delimited (PR #21).
• New magics %noecho and %quietly.

0.2.4

• New configuration option missing controls what should be displayed in the output of the *%browse magic for a missing value. Default is '.', following Stata. To defer to pandas' format for NA, specify 'pandas'.
• The SelVar class now uses Stata's tempvar mechanism to create the temporary variable it needs.

0.2.3

*%browse magic improvements:

• New in range option. Syntax is the same as in Stata.
• Bug fix: variables with missing values are no longer displayed as floats.

0.2.1

*%browse now correctly display missing values. Previously missing values were displayed as a very large float.

0.2.0

Magics (Experimental)

Magics are commands that only work in pystata-kernel and are not part of Stata's syntax. Magics normally start with %, but this will cause errors when the notebook is exported and run as a Stata script. As an alternative, you can prefix the magic name with *%, which will simply be treated by Stata as a single-line comment.

pystata currently supports the following magics:

Magic	Description	Full Syntax
*%browse	View dataset	*%browse [-h] [N] [varlist] [if]
*%help	Display a help file in rich text	*%help [-h] command_or_topic_name

0.1.21

1. New options splash controls display of the splash message during Stata startup. Only works on pystata 0.1.1 or above.
2. echo = None will suppress all commands.
3. Corrected path detection on MacOS.
4. Added packaging to requirement.

0.1.18

1. Updated KernelSpecManager() call. Installation should no longer show the deprecation warning seen in previous versions.
2. Added echo = False to generated configuration file.

0.1.17

Added a new option echo. If set to True in the configuration file, the kernel will echo the command while running a cell with only a single command. This setting has no effect on cells containing multiple commands. Default is False.
