layout: post title: Libcloud 0.14.0-beta3 released author: Tomaz Muraus tags:
We are pleased to announce the release of Libcloud 0.14.0-beta3, a first (beta) release in the 0.14.0 series.
The reason this is a beta and not a final release is that it includes some pretty big changes (most notably the “region” argument change). I would like those changes to get some more real-life testing before doing a final release.
Being a first release in the 0.14.0 series means it brings many (and I mean many!) new features, changes and improvements.
Some of the changes noted above are also backward incompatible. For more information on what has changed and how to update your code to work with a new release, please visit the Upgrade Notes section in our documentation.
Full change log can be found here.
Libcloud 0.14.0-beta3 can be downloaded from http://libcloud.apache.org/downloads.html or installed using pip:
{% highlight bash %} pip install apache-libcloud==0.14.0-beta3 {% endhighlight %}
It is possible that the file hasn't been synced to all the mirrors yet. If this is the case, please use the main Apache mirror - http://www.apache.org/dist/libcloud.
If you have installed Libcloud using pip you can also use it to upgrade it:
{% highlight bash %} pip install --upgrade apache-libcloud==0.14.0-beta3 {% endhighlight %}
A page which describes backward incompatible or semi-incompatible changes and how to preserve the old behavior when this is possible can be found at https://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/upgrade_notes.html#libcloud-0-14-0 .
Regular and API documentation is available at https://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/.
