What's new in 0.0.7 (April 5, 2024)

The main improvement in this release of stargazer is that it expands the set of models that stargazer can represent. Specifically, several models from linearmodels (including both panel and instrumental variable estimators) are now supported. This enhancement was made possible by a cleaner separation, within stargazer, between generic and estimator-specific code. As a result, supporting new models, including from other libraries, should be straighforward.

As a second improvement, the new Label object can now be used to provide text that will adapt automatically to different formats. It is already used internally for some stargazer-provided strings, and can be used by users for own strings, such as variable names, so that for instance they look nice both in Jupyter notebook (HTML format) and within a LaTeX document.

Both these novelties are featured in the examples notebook. In addition, this release introduces a large number of enhancements and bug fixes.

Enhancements

  • New Label object, for multi-format text
  • Display pseudo-R² when available (:issue:`91`)
  • Display marginal effects with MarginalEffects (:issue:`86`)
  • Implement more general computation of residual standard error (:issue:`76`)
  • rename_covariates() can now accept a callable (in alternative to a dict)
  • Support for models from linearmodels library (:issue:`26`)
  • New restrict=False argument to covariate_order() allows appending covariates not specifically ordered

Bug fixes

  • Escaped dependent variable name in LaTeX output
  • covariate_order() now raises an error if a covariate name is repeated

What's new in 0.0.6 (July 28, 2023)

This release brings a large refactoring, deduplicating much code between HTML and LateX output and potentially simplifying the future support for other output formats.

In addition, it introduces a large number of enhancements and bug fixes.

Note that the project URL on GitHub has moved to https://github.com/StatsReporting/stargazer

Enhancements

  • Support escaping LaTeX special characters in render_latex() (:issue:`60`)
  • Allow for custom spacing between coefficient rows (:issue:`66`)
  • Support the result of get_robustcov_results() from Statsmodels
  • Implement more general computation of residual standard error (:issue:`76`)
  • Support for statistical results of other models than just OLS
  • Introduction of a utils.Wrapper class allowing easy customization of any given model (:issue:`71`)
  • Make separators argument to custom_columns() optional
  • Allow changing the name of the dependent variable (:issue:`93`)
  • Support custom lines (also) in header

Bug fixes

  • Fix width of line above mode numbers (:issue:`75`)
  • Fix display of dependent variable in LaTeX
  • Fix rendering of generate_additional_notes() (:issue:`80`)
  • Escape special characters (also) in columns labels (:issue:`90`)
  • Fix typo in LineLocation value

What's new in 0.0.5 (July 13, 2020)

This release introduced a large number of enhancements and bug fixes.

Enhancements

  • Support for multiple different target variables
  • Empty rows for spacing are now optional
  • Enabled rich display for HTML tables inside Jupyter notebooks
  • Support models with missing features, hence beyond OLS
  • Displayed thousands separator in number of observations
  • Added table_label attribute and hidden the label if empty
  • Added the show_stars attribute to not features significance signs
  • Added the add_line() method to insert custom content
  • Added first unit tests

Bug fixes

  • Honored behavior of several show_* attributes
  • Adapted creation of multiple columns in LaTeX
  • Show dependent variable name in HTML
  • Fixed representation of floating numbers, keeping constant the number of decimal digits
  • Fixed the number of observations in models without constant (:issue:`32`)
  • Fixed output of R^2 in LaTeX
  • Workaround for statsmodels bug #6778 affecting output of f statistic (:issue:`33`)
