1.3.1 (2021-09-02)

Bug Fixes

• Fix the line wrapping logic to always wrap import lines if they are greater than the max line length (previously it would not account for the last imported name in the line).

1.3 (2021-08-24)

New Features

• Lines with star imports can now contain comments.
• Star imports can be whitelisted using # noqa comments.
• Replaced Travis CI with GitHub Actions.

Thanks to @h4l for these improvements.

Bug Fixes

• Fix an incorrectly done release from 1.2.3.

1.2.3 (2021-08-16)

Bug Fixes

• Fix unformatted module name placeholder in “Could not find the star imports” warning (thanks to @h4l).

1.2.2 (2019-08-22)

Bug Fixes

• Names that are used more than once no longer produce duplicate imports.
• Files are no longer read redundantly.
• Files are no longer written into if the code does not change.
• A blank line is no longer printed for empty diffs.

1.2.1 (2019-08-17)

Bug Fixes

• Imports that are completely removed are no longer replaced with a blank line.

1.2 (2019-08-16)

New Features

• removestar now works correctly with recursive star imports. In particular, from .submod import * now works when submod is a submodule whose __init__.py itself uses import * (removestar still skips __init__.py files by default).
• __all__ is now respected.
• The full path to the file is printed for --verbose messages.
• Catch all errors when importing external modules dynamically.
• Better error message for same-module absolute imports that don’t exist.

Bug Fixes

• Don’t consider __builtins__ to be imported from external modules (even though it technically is).
• Make sure pytest-doctestplus is installed when running the tests.

Other

• Include the LICENSE file in the distribution and the setup.py metadata.

1.1 (2019-08-05)

New Features

• Add --verbose and --quiet flags. --verbose prints about every name that an import is added for. --quiet hides all warning output.
• Add support for absolute imports. Absolute imports from the same module are scanned statically, the same as relative imports. Absolute imports from external modules are imported dynamically to get the list of names. This can be disabled with the flag --no-dynamic-importing.
• Add --max-line-length to control the line length at which imports are wrapped. The default is 100. It can be disabled with remoevstar --max-line-length 0.
• No longer stop traversing a directory when encountering a file with invalid syntax.

Bug Fixes

• Fix logic for wrapping long imports
• Fix the filename in some error messages.

Other

• Add tests.
• Move all TODOs to the GitHub issue tracker.

1.0.1 (2019-07-18)

• Fix directory recursion
• Fix multiline import logic
