Changelog

Unreleased

3.0.1 - 2022-10-21

Add sandboxes field to Results in Project model. (As this is is a internal field, releasing as a patch release.)

3.0.0 - 2022-05-06

New Pipeline model

Changes to Project descriptions after a review and consultation process. This does not change the meaning of any variables, only adds examples, clarifies some definitions and includes descriptions for the ‘Sources’ and “Notes’ variables.

Specify options for sources type (Project, Organisation and Pipeline).

Project “Stage of Development” - remove two options. Data for these lives in Pipeline now.

Add non standard “references-model” and “references-models-seperator” keys to JSON Schema for links between models.

Add non standard “references-data-key”, “references-data-list” and “references-datas-seperator” keys to JSON Schema for links between part of the same model. Done for “sources” only - project.json and pipeline.json is missing other references.
