Release 1.4.0

  • MAJOR performance gains in the .to_js_literal() method. Implementation seems to improve performance by 50 - 90%.

  • SIGNIFICANT performance gains in the .to_json() method. Implementation seems to improve performance by 30 - 90%.

    • creation of multiple series from one DataFrame in one method call

    • creation of series without needing to specify a full property map

    • support for creating series by DataFrame row, rather than just by DataFrame column

Release 1.3.0

  • ENHANCEMENT: Modified the way that data points are serialized to JavaScript literal objects. Now, they are serialized to a JavaScript array if their configured properties are those that Highcharts (JS) supports in JavaScript array notation. Otherwise, the code falls back to serialize the data point as a JavaScript object literal. This change is intended to improve performance and reduce the size of the serialized data. (#27)
