Features

• Added ability to opt-in to specific Ophyd Object instance DEBUG logs. Call
  logs.log_objects(obj1, obj2) to configure it for obj1 and obj2,
  for example, and clear it by way of logs.log_objects_off().
• Added a new logs object in the IPython namespace, offering easy access
  to common log-related tools.

Fixes and Maintenance

• Refactored logging setup to be more modular and slightly better documented.
  The ophyd logger is no longer "hushed", but is now filtered through the
  new ObjectFilter mechanism.

Bugfixes

• Fix an issue where ophyd signals were configured to wait "forever" for their
  write timeouts. By default, this is now a 5 second timeout instead of no
  timeout. This unfortunate default resulted in some cases where PVs would
  get "stuck" in a "set_and_wait" that would never end. In ophyd, this default
  is intentionally left to infinite to satisfy the common case where signals
  don't update to the final value for a long period of time.
  These cases are very uncommon at the LCLS.

Features

• IterableNamespace has been upgraded to be HelpfulNamespace, while
  maintaining a backward-compatible import name. This class supports the
  IPython "pretty repr" and HTML repr hooks to provide user-friendly tables of
  items available in the namespace, as well as direct keyword-access to
  elements of the namespace.
• All objects loaded in load_conf have been annotated with what they are used
  for in the Python session. These annotations are available when viewing
  the HelpfulNamespace pretty and HTML reprs.
  Bugfixes

• Fix an issue where the get_current_hutch scripts were using a deprecated and
  removed argument structure.

Bugfixes

• Display small values in scientific notation during scans, rather than as
  0.000000. Similarly handle very large values.
• Include the BestEffortCallback that we are using in the hutch's namespace
  for easy access.

Features

• Add epicsarch-qs script that will handle creating epicsArch files
  from the LCLS questionnaire.
• Include plans from nabs in the default namespaces.
• Include calcs from pcdsdevices in the default namespaces.

Bugfixes

• Fix issue where tab completion filters would not work due to IPython
  quirks in cases where jedi is disabled.
• Fix issue where devices with negative z would not load from happi.

Maintenance

• Update the hutch environment templates.

Features

• Include the beam_stats and lcls objects in every hutch python session.
• Enable scan PVs for all consumers (instead of starting as disabled).

Bugfixes

• Fix load order so that beamline and experiment files happen as late as possible.

Features

• Alert and show the user the full traceback when there are issues loading
  user files like beamline and experiment files.
• Ask the user if it is okay to proceed with the user file loading failure,
  which typically renders the session useless, rather than just
  passing over the issue.

Features

• Expand motors group to have all positioners.
• Add detectors (d) namespace for ami detectors.
• Time safe_load and report duration.
• Add a few simulated motors by default in a sim namespace.

Fixes and Maintenance

• Pass hutch name to daq to avoid calling get_hutch_name, which can be slow.
• Disable tree namespace until issues are resolved.

Note: this is a re-tag of v1.6.0, which failed the anaconda upload

This is re-tagged as v1.6.1 with a working anaconda upload
