waqasbhatti/astrobase: astrobase v0.3.9

Published March 14, 2018 | Version v0.3.9

Software Open

New stuff

checkplot: can now provide epochs for folding phased light curves as input, overriding the default light curve time-of-minimum finding strategy
starfeatures and checkplot: can now use arbitrary mags and colors in input objectinfo dicts, can add custom bandpasses as well
checkplotserver UI: added highlight for each GAIA neighbor in the DSS finder chart as cursor mouses over its row in the GAIA neighbor list table to help with visualizing close neighbors
tests: added tests for new epoch and mag/color handling
added a CITE.md

Changes

checkplot: no longer warns if a pickle was written in Python 2 and latin1 encoding was needed to read it in Python 3
checkplot: a Savitsky-Golay fit is now tried before giving up on finding time-of-minimum of a light curve if the initial spline fit failed
checkplotserver: UI fixes to not squish phased LC tiles into too small an area; now they overflow off the page with scroll-bars, but should remain legible
lcmath.sigclip_magseries can now use either median/MAD or mean/stdev as the central and spread values in determining where to clip (added by @joshuawallace in #40)

Fixes

checkplotserver: handle more nan-JSON breakage
starfeatures: handle missing information correctly
fixed link at the top of hatlc.py to the astrobase-notebooks repository (added by @adrn in #37)
checkplotlist: fixed to not use non-existent str.isdecimal() in Python 2
various other Python 3 specific things were fixed to make them work on python 2.7 as well
