Version 1.2.3

Some fixes for the documentation on http://cot.readthedocs.org

Version 1.2.2

• CLI adapts more intelligently to terminal width (fixes #28)
• Documentation built with Sphinx and available at http://cot.readthedocs.org
• Submodules now use Python properties instead of get_value/set_value methods.

Version 1.2.1

• Now uses colorlog instead of coloredlogs for CLI log colorization, as this fits better with COT's logging model.
• Now PEP8 compliant - passes validation by flake8 code analysis
• Very preliminary support for OVF 2.x format
• Greatly improved unit test structure and code coverage, including tests for logging.
• Now uses tox for easier test execution and coverage.py for code coverage analysis.
• Code coverage reporting with Coveralls

Version 1.2.0

Features and bugfixes:

• The CLI for cot deploy has been revised somewhat based on user feedback.
• Various bugfixes for issues specific to Python 2.6 and 3.x - these environments should now be fully working again.
• Greatly improved logging (#26). COT now defaults to logging level INFO, which provides relatively brief status updates to the user. You can also run with --quiet to suppress INFO messages and only log WARNING and ERROR messages, --verbose to see VERBOSE messages as well, or --debug if you want to really get into the guts of what COT is doing.
• Other minor bug fixes.

Backend improvements:

• Now integrated with Travis CI for automated builds and UT under all supported Python versions. This should greatly improve the stability of COT under less-common Python versions. (#12)
• A lot of restructuring of the underlying code to make things more modular and easier to test in isolation.

Version 1.1.6

• Bug fixes for cot inject-config and cot deploy, including issues #19 and #20 and a warning to users about serial ports and ESXi (issue eventually to be addressed by fixing #24).
• More graceful handling of Ctrl-C interrupt while COT is running.
• Added THANKS file recognizing various non-code contributions to COT.

Version 1.1.5

Fixed issue #17 (cot edit-hardware adding NICs makes an OVA that vCenter regards as invalid) and several spurious WARNING messages.

Version 1.1.4

• Improved cot deploy handling of config profiles - fixed #5 and #15
• Vastly improved installation workflow under Linuxes supporting apt-get or yum - included helper script can automatically install all helper programs except ovftool. Fixes #9.
• COT can at least be installed and run under CentOS/Python2.6 now, although the automated unit tests will complain about the different XML output that 2.6 produces.

Version 1.1.3

• Improved installation documentation
• Some improvements to IOS XRv OVA support
• cot edit-hardware added --nic-names option for assigning names to each NIC
• cot info now displays NIC names.

Version 1.1.2

• Fixed several Python 3 compatibility issues (issue #7 and others)
• Can now create new hardware items without an existing item of the same type (issue #4)
• Clearer documentation and logging messages (issue #8 and others)
• Take advantage of QEMU 2.1 finally supporting streamOptimized VMDK sub-format
• Now uses versioneer for automatic version numbering.

Version 1.1.1

Some slight bug fixes to cot deploy esxi from Kevin Keim.
