Changelog#

Version 0.2.1#

  • First release published to PyPI. Identical in content to 0.2.0, which was tagged but not published because the release pipeline was not yet configured.

Version 0.2.0#

  • GVCPClient.discover() now sweeps every host network interface (via psutil), sending global and per-subnet broadcasts, so cameras on secondary NICs and USB-to-GigE adapters are found by default.

  • Discovery results now include the camera mac.

  • Added GVCPClient.force_ip() to assign an IP to a camera by MAC (GVCP FORCEIP), for re-homing wrong-subnet cameras.

  • psutil is now a required dependency.

  • Discovery results now include interface_ip, the host interface the camera replied on, so vendor drivers can bind the correct local interface when connecting.

  • Added GVSPReceiver.reset_resend_stats() to clear per-stream resend counters between downloads.

  • force_ip() is now available as a top-level pyGigEVision.force_ip and sweeps all network interfaces by default; accepts an optional interface_ip argument to restrict the sweep to one interface.

  • pyGigEVision.standard is now documented as a public submodule.

  • GenICam XML download now accepts bare-hex FIRST_URL fields emitted by some cameras (previously raised an error); READMEM reads are 4-byte aligned per the GigE Vision spec.

  • GVSP frames returned by the receiver are now always writable (previously some assembled frames were read-only).

  • Frame metadata now includes a complete flag indicating whether all expected packets arrived for that frame.

  • Added a py.typed marker (PEP 561) so downstream type checkers consume the inline type annotations directly.

  • CI now gates the PyPI publish workflow on tests passing and adds a Sphinx -W docs-build check.

Version 0.1.1#

  • Adopt sdypy package template conventions: flat layout, hatchling build, sphinx_book_theme docs on ReadTheDocs, manual changelog, version-sync release script.

  • Add full Sphinx documentation with API reference at https://pygigevision.readthedocs.io.

  • Add three vendor-neutral examples in examples/: discover, bootstrap and XML download, grab one frame.

  • Add CONTRIBUTING.rst and this changelog.

  • Switch CI lint from flake8 to ruff (strict superset, includes formatter).

  • Add Windows to the CI test matrix alongside Ubuntu (the protocol library’s primary user platform).

  • Polish: NumPy-style docstrings and complete type hints across the public surface.

  • No public API changes; consumers of pyGigEVision 0.1.0 continue to work unchanged.

Version 0.1.0#

  • Initial release. Pure-Python implementation of the GigE Vision protocol layer: GVCP control client, GVSP streaming receiver, GigE Vision standard register constants, GenICam XML download helper, optional bootstrap() convenience.

  • 52 unit tests passing across Python 3.10–3.13 on Ubuntu and Windows.

  • Tag-only private release; not published to PyPI.
