v2.5.6

Semantic tag so scm_setuptools work.

astroid-2.5.6

• Fix retro-compatibility issues with old version of pylint
  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4402

astroid-2.5.5: Fix discord server invitation

• Fixes the discord link in the project urls of the package.
  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4393

astroid-2.5.4

• The packaging is now done via setuptools exclusively. doc, tests, and Changelog are
  not packaged anymore - reducing the size of the package greatly.

• Debian packaging is now (officially) done in https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/astroid.

• __pkginfo__ now only contain __version__ (also accessible with astroid.__version__),
  other meta-information are still accessible with import importlib;metadata.metadata('astroid').

• Added inference tip for typing.Tuple alias

• Fix crash when evaluating typing.NamedTuple

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4383

• COPYING was removed in favor of COPYING.LESSER and the latter was renamed to LICENSE to make more apparent
  that the code is licensed under LGPLv2 or later.

• Moved from appveyor and travis to Github Actions for continuous integration.

astroid-2.5.3

• Takes into account the fact that subscript inferring for a ClassDef may involve class_getitem method

• Reworks the collections and typing brain so that pylint`s acceptance tests are fine.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4206

• Use inference_tip for typing.TypedDict brain.

• Fix mro for classes that inherit from typing.Generic

• Add inference tip for typing.Generic and typing.Annotated with __class_getitem__

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#2822

astroid-2.5.2

• Detects import numpy as a valid numpy import.

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#3974

• Iterate over Keywords when using ClassDef.get_children

  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#3202

astroid-2.5.1

• The context.path is reverted to a set because otherwise it leads to false positives
  for non numpy functions.

  Closes #895 #899

• Don't transform dataclass ClassVars

• Improve typing.TypedDict inference

• Fix the Duplicates found in MROs false positive.

  Closes #905
  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#2717
  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#3247
  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4093
  Closes pylint-dev/pylint#4131

astroid 2.5

• Adds attr_fset in the PropertyModel class.

  Fixes pylint-dev/pylint#3480

• Remove support for Python 3.5.

• Remove the runtime dependency on six. The six brain remains in
  astroid.

  Fixes #863

• Enrich the brain_collection module so that __class_getitem__ method is added to deque for
  python version above 3.9.

• The context.path is now a dict and the context.push method
  returns True if the node has been visited a certain amount of times.

  Close #669

• Adds a brain for type object so that it is possible to write type[int] in annotation.

  Fixes pylint-dev/pylint#4001

• Add __class_getitem__ method to subprocess.Popen brain under Python 3.9 so that it is seen as subscriptable by pylint.

  Fixes pylint-dev/pylint#4034

• Adds degrees, radians, which are numpy ufunc functions, in the numpy brain. Adds random function in the numpy.random brain.

  Fixes pylint-dev/pylint#3856

  Closes #703

• Fix a crash in inference caused by Uninferable container elements

  Close #866

• Add python 3.9 support.

  It should be a numpy.flatiter instance, but this class is not yet available in the numpy brain.

  Fixes pylint-dev/pylint#3640

• Fix a bug for dunder methods inference of function objects

  Fixes #819

• Fixes a bug in the signature of the ndarray.__or__ method,
  in the brain_numpy_ndarray.py module.

• is_generator correctly considers Yield nodes in AugAssign nodes

  This fixes a false positive with the assignment-from-no-return pylint check.

  Close pylint-dev/pylint#3904

• Corrected the parent of function type comment nodes.

  These nodes used to be parented to their original ast.FunctionDef parent
  but are now correctly parented to their astroid.FunctionDef parent.
