Transformers & XY Plots
Released on 2020-12-18
Loggers have access to accessors
CSV and other loggers have access to accessors now.
New Data Transformer API
The Data Transformer API has been revamped.
Improved Chart Performance
Charts of all types now allocate less and are therefore more performant.
Microsecond timing
Timing is now done using a global @electricui/timing package, and is now accurate to the microsecond instead of the millisecond.
Chart Axis Performance Improvements
Chart Axes are now more performant to render.
X-Y Plots
X-Y Plots are now supported.
See the docs for details.
Better hot reloading
Hot reloading, especially on the transport context, has been improved.
The logic for this has been moved to @electricui/core, and may now be updated without modifying the template.
Interval requester
Interval Requesters no longer retry forever if messages don't reach hardware. They now attempt up to acceptableConsecutiveFailures=10 times before giving up.
