4.0.0

This is a major release for asdf that includes removal of deprecated features and changes to some defaults.

Please see the "what's new" documentation:
https://asdf.readthedocs.io/en/4.0.0/asdf/whats_new.html#whats-new-4-0-0
for a description of the included changes.

Changes include:

Feature

• Switch default ASDF standard to 1.6.0. (#1744 <https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1744>_)
• Raise RuntimeError if a Convert subclass supports multiple tags but doesn't
  implement select_tag. (#1853 <https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1853>_)

General

• Set memmap=False to default for asdf.open and AsdfFile.__init__.
  (#1801 <https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1801>_)

Removal

• remove copy_arrays (replaced by memmap) (#1800 <https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1800>_)
• Remove deprecated API. See docs for full details. (#1852 <https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1852>_)
• Switch default convert_unknown_ndarray_subclasses to False and issue
  deprecation warning if it is enabled. (#1858 <https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1858>_)

3.5.0

Bugfix

• Allow asdf.util.load_yaml to handle recursive objects (#1825 <https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1825>_)

Doc

• added issue links to changelog entries #1827
• Change asdf standard changelog entries to notes to ease transition to
  towncrier #1830

General

• fix changelog checker to remove brackets #1828

Removal

• Deprecate ignore_version_mismatch. This option has done nothing since
  asdf 3.0.0 and will be removed in an upcoming asdf version #1819

3.4.0

• Fix issue where roundtripping a masked array with no masked values removes the mask [#1803]
• Use a custom exception AsdfSerializationError to indicate when an object in the
  tree fails to be serialized by asdf (and by yaml). This exception currently inherits
  from yaml.representer.RepresenterError to provide backwards compatibility. However
  this inheritance may be dropped in a future asdf version. Please migrate to the new
  AsdfSerializationError. [#1809]
• Drop importlib_metadata as a dependency on Python 3.12 and newer [#1810]
• Bumped minimal requirement on attrs from 20.1.0 to 22.2.0 [#1815]

3.3.0

• Fix __asdf_traverse__ for non-tagged objects [#1739]
• Deprecate asdf.testing.helpers.format_tag [#1774]
• Deprecate asdf.versioning.AsdfSpec [#1774]
• Deprecate asdf.util.filepath_to_url use pathlib.Path.to_uri [#1735]
• Record package providing manifest for extensions used to write
  a file and AsdfPackageVersionWarning when installed extension/manifest
  package does not match that used to write the file [#1758]
• Fix bug where a dictionary containing a key id caused
  any contained references to fail to resolve [#1716]
• Issue a AsdfManifestURIMismatchWarning during write if a used
  extension was created from a manifest registered with a uri that
  does not match the id in the manifest [#1785]
• Allow converters to provide types as strings that can
  resolve to public classes (even if the class is implemented
  in a private module). [#1654]
• Add options to control saving the base array when saving array views
  controlled via AsdfConfig.default_array_save_base,
  AsdfFile.set_array_save_base and
  SerializationContext.set_array_save_base [#1753]
• Deprecate ignore_implicit_conversion and "implicit conversion" [#1724]
• Add lazy_tree option to asdf.open and asdf.config
  to allow lazy deserialization of ASDF tagged tree nodes to
  custom objects. [#1733]
