Include TypeScript type definitions in the exported files.
This might be a fix for #294, but I'm not sure.
The only real way to test is to publish on npm and see what happens!
Added Python support for user-defined stars.
Defined new StateVector methods: Position and Velocity.
Defined division operator: Vector / float.
Bumped version number to 2.1.12.
Updated the version number so I can create a new
npm package to test the pull request from @matheo
that should allow TypeScript types to be exported correctly.
This is my second attempt to release eclipse obscuration.
I discovered there was a missing unit test for obscuration
for lunar eclipses in the Kotlin library. It has been added.
In anticipation of releasing the Kotlin version,
I set the version numbers for the following to 2.1.0:
Kotlin
Node.js / npm
Python / pip
The intention is to keep matching releases of
Astronomy Engine at a common version number.
The pip package was broken!
I violated ancient software development wisdom:
"If you haven't tested it, it doesn't work."
It is now working in:
https://pypi.org/project/astronomy-engine/2.0.15/
Version 2.0.15 of Astronomy Engine for Python (pip)
and Node.js (npm) add support for the new SiderealTime
function. This was previously an internal function,
but now it is exposed for outside callers.
The way I was publishing the Python package was annoying.
I found a better way to authenticate myself to pypi.org,
but I needed to test it. This required bumping the version
numbers of the packages. There is no difference between
2.0.12 and 2.0.13.
Python and npm package version: 2.0.11.
Finished implementing new functions across all
supported languages:
EclipticGeoMoon
Calculate the Moon's ecliptic geocentric position
in angular coordinates. The ecliptic longitude is
measured with respect to the mean equinox of date.
SearchMoonNode
NextMoonNode
A pair of functions to search for consecutive occurrences
of the Moon's center passing through the ecliptic plane.
These security updates do not affect users of Astronomy Engine.
They were flagged by Dependabot on GitHub to the steps
I use for building the TypeScript/JavaScript versions of
Astronomy Engine. The resulting code does not have any
external dependencies that need to be maintained.
Refactored SearchRiseSet to create a new function
InternalSearchAltitude. SearchRiseSet calls InternalSearchAltitude,
and the new function SearchAltitude also cals InternalSearchAltitude.
This causes the code to be only a tiny big larger.
The formatting of the JS documentation for class
GlobalSolarEclipseInformation was messed up in the
generated Markdown file. Fixed that issue in the
JS comments.
Bumping npm version to 2.0.6, to include recent
barycentric state and Earth gravity calculations.
The npm dependencies required are now
installed locally inside the generate folder.
Cleaned up the Astronomy object closure for TS
and kept it for the Browser bundle.
We will have some usage examples in the website.
The minimized code astronomy.min.js is now significantly smaller
because it uses a completely new algorithm for calculating
the position of Pluto. Instead of using TOP2013 formulas directly,
it simulates the gravitational forces on Pluto between 40
precalculated checkpoints spread over a 4000 year range.
