- update to version 3.6.1
* The angular momentum has been reversed compared to previous versions of yt.
See `PR 2043 `__.
* New frontend support for the code AMRVAC. Many thanks to Clement Robert
and Niels Claes who were major contributors to this initiative. Relevant PRs include:
* Support for the AdaptaHOP halo finder code
`PR 2385 `__.
* yt now supports geographic transforms and projections of data with
cartopy with support from `PR 1966 `__.
* annotations used to work for only a single point, they now work for multiple points
on a plot, see `PR 2122 `__.
* cosmology calculations now have support for the relativistic energy density of the
universe, see `PR 1714 `__.
This feature is accessible to cosmology datasets and was added to the Enzo frontend.
* the eps writer now allows for arrow rotation. this is accessible with
the ``rotate`` kwarg in the ``arrow`` function.
See `PR 2151 `__.
* allow for dynamic load balancing with parallel loading of timeseries
data using the ``dynamic`` kwarg. `PR 2149 `__.
* show/hide colorbar and show/hide axes are now available for
``ProfilePlot`` s. These functions were also moved from the PlotWindow to the
PlotContainer class. `PR 2169 `__.
* add support for ipywidgets with an ``__ipython_display__`` method on the
FieldTypeContainer. Field variables, source, and the field array can be
viewed with this widget. See PRs `PR 1844 `__
and `PR 1848 `__,
or try ``display(ds.fields)`` in a Jupyter notebook.
* cut regions can now be made with ``exclude_`` and ``include_`` on a number of objects,
including above and below values, inside or outside regions, equal values, or nans.
See `PR 1964 `__ and supporting
documentation fix at `PR 2262 `__.
* previously aliased fluid vector fields in curvilinear geometries were not
converted to curvilinear coordinates, this was addressed in
`PR 2105 `__.
* 2d polar and 3d cylindrical geometries now support annotate_quivers,
streamlines, line integral convolutions, see
`PR 2105 `__.
* add support for exporting data to firefly `PR 2190 `__.
* gradient fields are now supported in curvilinear geometries. See
`PR 2483 `__.
* plotwindow colorbars now utilize mathtext in their labels,
from `PR 2516 `__.
* raise deprecation warning when using ``mylog.warn``. Instead use
``mylog.warning``. See `PR 2285 `__.
* extend support of the ``marker``, ``text``, ``line`` and ``sphere`` annotation
callbacks to polar geometries `PR 2466 `__.
* Support MHD in the GAMER frontend `PR 2306 `__.
* Export data container and profile fields to AstroPy QTables and
pandas DataFrames `PR 2418 `__.
* Add turbo colormap, a colorblind safe version of jet. See
`PR 2339 `__.
* Enable exporting regular grids (i.e., covering grids, arbitrary grids and
smoothed grids) to ``xarray`` `PR 2294 `__.
* add automatic loading of ``namelist.txt``, which contains the parameter file
RAMSES uses to produce output `PR 2347 `__.
* adds support for a nearest neighbor value field, accessible with
the ``add_nearest_neighbor_value_field`` function for particle fields. See
`PR 2301 `__.
* speed up mesh deposition (uses caching) `PR 2136 `__.
* speed up ghost zone generation. `PR 2403 `__.
* ensure that a series dataset has kwargs passed down to data objects `PR 2366 `__.
- skip python36 because of numpy
