Full Changelog: 0.3.0...v0.4.0

Version 0.3.0

• Use MBL v9 (current master branch) for all models. Note that JModelica no longer works with this version. User must now use either Dymola or Optimica. A new solution is forthcoming.
• Update unit tests to break out building the tests and running the tests.

Version 0.2.3

• Add GMT Lib methods for Level 1 translation of Modelica-templated objects (for microgrid).
• Use MBL v9 (current master branch) for GMT Lib. The DES models still require the usage of the issue2204_gmt_mbl branch.
• Updated Jinja and Sphinx dependencies. Jinja is now a required dependency (no longer a testing dependency).
• Fix bug in CLI where commands only work in Unix-like operating systems, not Windows
• Fix bug in TEASER model for four-element RC models.
• Fix bug in TEASER infinite heating/cooling coupling template.

Version 0.2.2

• Fix bug in CLI which required the user to be in a specific directory to run. Updated CLI is more flexible.
• Update documentation.

Version 0.2.1

• New command line interface (CLI) for scaffolding project using results of URBANopt SDK's OpenStudio results
• New script for converting CSV file into Modelica mos file
• Cleanup of System Parameter Schema including renaming elements, adding definitions, and adding units
• Redesign the couplings and remove redundant model connector files
• Promote DES configuration variables to be accessible in the System Parameter file
• Extended flexibility of setting parameter values programmatically for Teaser, TimeSeries, and Spawn building load models models
• Upgrade to TEASER 0.7.5
• Upgrade to MBL 2.1.0
• Migrate to Poetry for development
• Add regression testing to full district energy system
• Auto-layout of templated components. This is a work in progress and the next version will include "pooling" of components.

Version 0.2.0

• Add ETS data for indirect cooling to system parameters schema
• Add district system example
• Add time series model using massflow rates and temperatures
• Add district heating (1GDH and 4GDH) and heating indirect ETS
• Add district cooling (4GDC) and cooling indirect ETS
• Add distribution network
• Update scaffolding to allow for mixed models
• Create initial documentation

Release 0.1.0

• Initial implementation of a ModelicaRunner to call a Docker container to run the model.
• Create a ROM/RC model using Modelica 3.2.x, Modelica Buildings Library 7.0 and TEASER 0.7.2.
• Create a Spawn-based model that loads an IDF file.
