Hello all,

We're glad to announce the release of fades 9.0.

fades is a system that automatically handles the virtualenvs in the
cases normally found when writing scripts and simple programs, and
even helps to administer big projects.

It will automagically create a new virtualenv (or reuse a previous
created one), installing the necessary dependencies, and execute
your script inside that virtualenv.

You only need to execute the script with fades (instead of Python) and
also mark the required dependencies. More details here:

    http://fades.rtfd.org/


What's new in this release?

- Get pip automatically upgraded to latest version on each virtualenv
  creation (unless explicitly avoided)

- Provides the --freeze parameter, which dumps the detailed package
  information of the virtualenv, to duplicate future installations.

- The -x/--exec parameter behaviour is extended/normalized to
  support arbitrary paths.

- Has the --autoimport parameter to automatically import the
  dependencies to the interactive interpreter

- Added more examples and descriptions to the documentation

- Improved argument parsing when fades is used in the shebang

- Worked on infrastructure: better testing, multiplatform installation
support, etc.


Nicol=C3=A1s and I want to say a big thank you to the following collaborato=
rs

version (in alphabetical order):

To install and enjoy fades...

- If you are in Ubuntu or Debian, you can easily install like this
  (but probably won't get *latest* fades:

    sudo apt-get install fades

- For not latest debian/ubuntu you have a .deb here (with its Debian
  source file):

    http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/f/fades/fades_9.0.1-1_all.deb
    http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/f/fades/fades_9.0.1-1.dsc

- Install it in Arch is very simple:

    yaourt -S fades

- In any Linux if you have the Snap system:

    snap install fades

- Using pip if you want:

    pip3 install fades

- You can always get the multiplatform tarball and install it in the
  old fashion way:

    wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/f/fades/fades_9.0.1.orig.ta=
r.gz
    tar -xf fades_*.tar.gz
    cd fades-*
    sudo ./setup.py install


Help / questions:

- You can ask any question or send any recommendation or request
  in the Telegram group:

- Also, you can open an issue here (please do if you find any problem!).

    https://github.com/PyAr/fades/issues/new

- The project itself is in

    https://github.com/PyAr/fades

  It's very easy to run latest development version:

    cd fades
    bin/fades


Thanks in advance for your time!
