What is antareseditobject?

The write half of the Antares R toolchain, hitting 1.0 by tracking the simulator rather than stabilizing

antaresEditObject is the counterpart to antaresRead: it creates, edits and deletes Antares Simulator studies on disk or through the Antares Web API. Releases 0.9.0 through 0.9.3 each absorbed a simulator version — new short-term storage properties, dynamic cluster groups, changed time series dimensions, removed settings. Version 1.0.0 arrived in February 2026 carrying district endpoints and a dependency cut on antaresRead, and 1.0.1 followed with performance work on zip handling and job polling.

What is Grafana Mimir?

Mimir's feed is a weekly Helm bot, with the 3.2 candidate the only real release in months

The visible cadence is an automated weekly Helm chart release opened by a bot with a two-line body, now at 6.3.0-weekly.408. The only substantive entry in the window is the 3.2.0 release candidate from early August, which carried query engine work and native histogram support.

antareseditobject vs Grafana Mimir: editorial side-by-side

A0.0

The write half of the Antares R toolchain, hitting 1.0 by tracking the simulator rather than stabilizing

◆ Current state

antaresEditObject is the counterpart to antaresRead: it creates, edits and deletes Antares Simulator studies on disk or through the Antares Web API. Releases 0.9.0 through 0.9.3 each absorbed a simulator version — new short-term storage properties, dynamic cluster groups, changed time series dimensions, removed settings. Version 1.0.0 arrived in February 2026 carrying district endpoints and a dependency cut on antaresRead, and 1.0.1 followed with performance work on zip handling and job polling.

◆ Where it's heading

Two things separate this package from its read-only sibling. It is actively reducing coupling — 1.0.0 removed the binding-constraint dependency on antaresRead, and createBindingConstraintBulk() now reads study links and clusters once instead of repeatedly. And it is tuning for Antares Web as a remote service rather than a local file format: polling job status every 300 seconds instead of every second is a concession to a shared server, not a local workflow.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued alignment with each Antares Simulator release, with further API-mode optimizations as remote study editing rather than disk editing becomes the primary path.

5.0

Mimir's feed is a weekly Helm bot, with the 3.2 candidate the only real release in months

◆ Current state

The visible cadence is an automated weekly Helm chart release opened by a bot with a two-line body, now at 6.3.0-weekly.408. The only substantive entry in the window is the 3.2.0 release candidate from early August, which carried query engine work and native histogram support.

◆ Where it's heading

Packaging and the engine move on separate clocks: the chart ships weekly regardless of whether anything changed underneath, while Mimir itself cuts a minor roughly monthly. The weekly stream tells you nothing about direction and will keep dominating the feed by volume.

◆ Prediction

The chart line moving from 6.2.0-weekly to 6.3.0-weekly points at a 6.3.0 chart release carrying Mimir 3.2 once the candidate goes final.
