v2.2.1 (2023-02-16)

Future incompatibilities

• window.smoothPlotter will not be set by extras/smooth-plotter.js any more RSN

New features

• Permit initialising with [] as “no data yet” indicator (#597)
• The modularisation of the test setup also allows stable access to exported functions (e.g. Dygraph._require('dygraphs/src/dygraph-utils.js').numberValueFormatter) which makes writing one’s own value formatters easier (as usual, proceed with care, exports with an underscore are internal); see https://dygraphs.com/tests/exported-symbols.html for the exposed surface
• Provide Dygraph.onDOMready(cb) as lightweight jQuery(cb)/… alternative, to keep the demos/tests self-contained

Bugfixes

Other user-visible changes

Internal refactors/fixes

• tests/resizable.html exposes the graph object, for quick F12 in-browser use
• Generate versions.html and release notes from new top-level CHANGES.md
• Modularise dygraphs/tests setup so we can now also test the minified prod css/js (#1028)
