Hello everyone!
I'm happy to announce another charm-tools release today, this is the 1.10.0
which succeeds 1.9.3 as the latest release of charm-tools. If you've
managed to install 1.9.3 please be sure to upgrade. As always, you can
verify the version you are running by executing: `charm version`

# Highlights
This fix includes a mix of new feature and bug fixes. Here are a few
highlights.
## Storage hooks in reactive
As of this release, once storage is defined in the metadata.yaml for a
charm, Reactive hook stubs will be created. Charms can now use reactive
@hook to respond to storage events.
## Major fix to wheelhousing
1.9.3 added support for wheelhouses. However, due to the nature of
wheelhouses they were still binary builds. This breaks for charms built on
one architecture and deployed on another. 1.10.0 fixes this by building
"source only" wheels.
## Python3 for hooks
By default, all hooks and dependencies are built with Python3. This is in
anticipation of the Xenial switch to only having Python3 installed on the
cloud images by default.
# Install
Charm Tools is available to users either via the juju/stable PPA, Homebrew,
or pip
## PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:juju/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install charm-tools
## Homebrew
brew install charm-tools
## PIP
pip install -U charm-tools
As with Juju, charm-tools is gearing up for a 2.0 release. In this release
a few commands will be changing. Our goal is to have a 2.0 of charm-tools
ready in February in order to make sure it lands in Xenial. A follow up
email about this switch and what it means will be sent soon.
Thanks,
Marco Ceppi
