Release Notes¶
This is the list of changes to Taipy releases as they were published.
Migration
Please refer to the Migration page for potential migration paths for your applications implemented on legacy Taipy versions.
Taipy Studio: 1.0¶
The first release of the
Taipy Studio
extension to Visual Studio Code.
Taipy Studio brings programmers tools that significantly improve productivity when building Taipy applications.
It mainly provides:
- A graphical editor for building configuration files, so one does not have to code configurations in Python any longer;
- IntelliSense applied to the Markdown syntax extension that Taipy GUI uses to define the visual elements in the interface pages.
You can refer to the Taipy Studio User Manual section for more information.
Community edition: 2.1¶
Published on 2023-01.
taipy
2.1 contains the latest
taipy-config
2.1,
taipy-gui
2.1,
taipy-core
2.1 and
taipy-rest
2.1 packages.
Please refer to the Migration page for details on how to migrate from version older than 2.1.
New Features¶
taipy
2.1
- Taipy and all its dependencies now support Python 3.11.
See Python documentation for details.
taipy-gui
2.1.0
- A security feature has been added: the file
.taipyignore
, located next to the Python main file, can list the paths that you want to prevent access to.
See issue #501 or this section for details. - Charts can use a Decimator instance that cleverly filters data
points out to greatly improve performance.
See the Decimator documentation for more details. - Charts now support polar, funnel, candlesticks and many other types of charts.
See the chart control section for details. - Charts now support the dark theme automatically.
- Tooltips can be set on individual table cells.
See the example for more information. - Long running callbacks have
been improved to allow for easily returning a value.
See the documentation of theinvoke_long_callback()
function or the issue #547 for more details. - Developers can specify the location of the Taipy webapp, for debugging purposes.
The--webapp-path
command line option allows to specify that location.
See issue #564.
taipy-core
2.1.0
- New version management system for Taipy applications. Users can now run an application in development
mode, save a version of the application as an experiment version, re-run older experiment versions,
and push a version to production.
See the Version management system documentation page for more details. - New data node named MongoCollectionDataNode. It represents the data from a MongoDB collection.
- New data node named ParquetDataNode. It represents tabular data stored in the Apache Parquet format.
- Added support for Modin as a new exposed type.
- Running the Core service is required to execute jobs. See
Core().run()
method. - The parent entities of a data node, a task, or a pipeline can be accessed via
DataNode.get_parents()
,Task.get_parents()
, orPipeline.get_parents()
, or by passing the data node entity, task entity or pipeline entity to the functionget_parents()
. - New data node property expiration_date computed adding the validity_period duration to the last_edit_date of the data node.
- New data node property is_up_to_date equals to
True
if the data node has not expired (refer to expiration_date attribute).False
otherwise. - The sql repository_type is now available on community edition to store Core entities in an SQL database. See SQL storage section.
Improvements and changes¶
taipy-gui
2.1.0
- The Pie charts now use the values property to set values instead of x.
See Pie charts for details. - Unselected data points or traces in charts now preserve their original opacity.
See issue #496. class_name
is now a dynamic property.
See issue #480.- The allow_unsafe_werkzeug option of Werkzeug (that Flask depends on for the WSGI part) is forced to True when the Gui instance is run in Debug mode, because of a change in policy in recent updates.
taipy-core
2.1.1
- Add overload type descriptions for the
taipy.get()
method that supports multiple different combinations of argument types.
2.1.0
- Deprecation of the data node cacheable property. It is replaced by skippable property on tasks.
The mechanism remains unchanged but instead of setting cacheable property to
True
for all the outputs of a task that can be skipped, just set the task skippable property toTrue
. - The last_edit_date attribute of a data node is now updated when the corresponding data is modified by either a Taipy task execution or an external factor. This behavior is limited to file-based data nodes: CSV, Excel, JSON, and pickle data nodes only.
Community edition: 2.0¶
Published on 2022-10.
taipy
2.0 contains the latest
taipy-config
2.0,
taipy-gui
2.0,
taipy-core
2.0 and
taipy-rest
2.0 packages.
New Features¶
taipy-gui
2.0.0
- Extension API: custom visual elements can be integrated into Taipy GUI applications.
Third party HTML components can be integrated into Taipy GUI pages to address specific use cases.
See Extension API for details. - New callbacks (
on_init
,on_navigate
,on_exception
andon_status
) can be used to initialize a new session, detect navigation events, trigger code when exceptions are raised in user code, and invoke code when a status page is requested.
See Callbacks for details. - New functions allow applications to invoke long-running callbacks without blocking.
See Long Running Callbacks for details. - The Taipy GUI application configuration uses the generic Taipy configuration mechanism exposed in the
new
taipy-config
package. - An application can request the status of the server application using the "status" predefined page.
- The new 'base' property of the chart control makes it possible to create Gantt chart-like displays.
See Gantt Charts for details.
taipy-core
2.0.0
- New data node named SQLTableDataNode. It represents a table in a SQL database.
- New data node named JSONDataNode. It represents the data from a JSON file.
- SQLDataNode behavior is changed due to the release of SQLTableDataNode. Now it represents the data using custom read and write queries.
- In standalone mode, a job whose status is
SUBMITTED
,PENDING
, orBLOCKED
can be canceled. When canceling the job, its subsequent jobs will be abandoned, and their statuses will be set toABANDONED
. When the cancel method is called on a job whose status is eitherRUNNING
,COMPLETED
, orSKIPPED
, its subsequent jobs will be abandoned while its status remains unchanged. A job whose status isFAILED
,CANCELED
orABANDONED
cannot be canceled. - Taipy Core can now be run as a service by using
Core().run()
ortp.run(Core())
. By running Core as a service, Taipy initializes the scheduler and the job dispatcher based on the provided configuration. The Taipy Core service can be run along with Taipy GUI or Taipy Rest services.
taipy-config
2.0.0
- The new
taipy-config
package was exposed to be used by any other Taipy package for configuration and logging.
Improvements and changes¶
taipy-gui

Gui
instance is no longer required in Notebook contexts. - A discrete graphical indicator is displayed at the bottom of pages when the server is processing.
taipy-core
2.0.0
- The data node of a scenario or a pipeline can now be accessed directly at the scenario or pipeline levels.
- When submitting a scenario, a pipeline, or a task, the job(s) created will be returned.
- When submitting a scenario, pipeline, or task in standalone mode, the user can use the parameters wait and timeout to wait until the submitted jobs are finished or up to timeout seconds.
- When in standalone mode, the job dispatcher runs in a sub-thread that periodically checks for new jobs submitted by Taipy to execute.
- When a running job fails, its subsequent jobs will be automatically abandoned.
- A primary scenario can be deleted along with its cycle if it is the only scenario in the cycle.
- The messages of the various Exceptions that can be raised have been improved to help the users debug their applications.
