NOTE: The apsbss component will be moved out of apstools into its own package with the next release (1.6.0, ~Feb 2022) of apstools.

The apstools.beamtime module and related content (includes apsbss) will be moved to a new repository for release 1.6.0. This will remove the requirement that the APS data management tools (package aps-dm, which only works on the APS computing network) be included. With this change, users will be able to conda install apstools -c aps-anl-tag on computers outside of the APS computing network.

Fixes#

  • Fixed bug in devices.ApsCycleComputedRO and devices.ApsCycleDM involving datetime.

  • Add unit tests for devices.ApsCycle* Devices.

  • Add EPICS IOCs (ADSimDetector and synApps xxx) to continuous integration for use in unit testing.

  • Unit tests now use pytest package.
