Changes in MariaDB Jupyter Kernel

Release history for the MariaDB Jupyter Kernel, covering SQL autocompletion, code introspection, multi-notebook server management, and other fixes from v0.1.0 onward.

[v0.2.0] 02 November 2021

Features and improvements

• SQL code autocompletion ( GSoC project 2021 by Xing-Zhi Jiang)

• Code Instrospection ( GSoC project 2021 by Xing-Zhi Jiang)

• Add debug option in ClientConfig

• The MyBinder configurations are switched to Dockerfile to achieve more flexibility

• The kernel is now able to start its own MariaDB Server instance, run mariadb-install-db to create a datadir and pass the right options to client and server so that first-time users only need to have the mariadb-server package installed (Contribution by Jonas Karlsson).

Bug fixes

• Progress reporting for commands such as LOAD DATA is disabled

• In multiple running notebooks with multiple MariaDB kernels, only the last alive notebook kills the MariaDB server (Contribution by Jonas Karlsson)

Features and improvements

• Add pre-commit support in the GitHub Actions CI

• Add two new example notebooks (contribution from Daniel Black)

• Add more tests

• Queries such as INSERT that don't return any result set should show a "Query OK" confirmation message (Contribution by XING-ZHI JIANG)

• Add %%delimiter cell magic command to run a query under a different SQL delimiter

• SQL error messages should only contain the relevant part of the error without the MariaDB error number

Bug fixes

• Refactor CodeParser to address a number of bugs related to how the MariaDB kernel was parsing multi-line queries

• Fixed bugs in MariaDB client that were leading to wrong multi-line outputs from functions such as JSON_DETAILED
