v1.0.0

Breaking changes in 1.0.0

• Previously, you would test production by passing --branch master. Now, Spectacles tests production when neither a branch nor a commit is passed. For example, spectacles sql --project eye_exam would test production on the eye_exam project. This change is to support Looker's advanced deploy mode, where production can refer to any deployed commit and doesn't exclusively refer to the production branch.

Features

• Query profiler for diagnosing long-running queries during SQL validation (-p or --profile , configure with --runtime-threshold) [docs]
• Spectacles supports advanced deploy: production no longer == master, but whatever branch and commit is deployed to production (#300)

Fixes

• Default API port for GCP-hosted Looker instances is now 443 instead of 19999 (#162)
• Authentication no longer conflicts with credentials defined in .netrc files (#281, @joshuasimon-taulia )
• Content errors without a corresponding folder are handled correctly (#327)
• Truncate excessively long error messages
