(v0.12.0)=
### 0.12.0 {small}`2025-07-16`
- (v0.12.0rc4)=
{guilabel}`rc4` 2025-06-18
- (v0.12.0rc3)=
{guilabel}`rc3` 2025-05-20
- (v0.12.0rc2)=
{guilabel}`rc2` 2025-05-15
- (v0.12.0rc1)=
{guilabel}`rc1` 2025-04-09
#### Breaking changes
- {guilabel}`rc1` Remove `anndata.read` {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1766`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Tighten usage of {class}`scipy.sparse.spmatrix` for describing sparse matrices in types and instance checks to only {class}`scipy.sparse.csr_matrix` and {class}`scipy.sparse.csc_matrix` {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1768`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Disallow declaration of {class}`~anndata.AnnData` with non-`cs{r,c}` sparse data-structures {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1829`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Upgrade all `DeprecationWarning`s to `FutureWarning`s {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1874`)
- {guilabel}`rc4` Lower bound `xarray` by `2025.06.01`. {class}`pandas.arrays.StringArray` was previously used as the in-memory `nullable-string-array` container in `xarray`, but due to {issue}`pydata/xarray#10419` now uses {class}`numpy.ndarray` with an object data type. {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`2008`)
#### Bug fixes
- Fix {func}`anndata.experimental.backed.Dataset2D.reindex` internal setting {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`2018`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Disallow writing of {class}`~anndata.experimental.backed.Dataset2D` objects {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1887`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Upgrade old deprecation warning to a `FutureWarning` on `BaseCompressedSparseDataset.__setitem__`, showing our intent to remove the feature in the next release. {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1928`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Don't use {func}`asyncio.run` internally for any operations {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1933`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Disallow forward slashes in keys for writing {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1940`)
- {guilabel}`rc2` Convert 1d {class}`numpy.ndarray` and {class}`cupy.ndarray`s in {attr}`anndata.AnnData.obsm` and {attr}`anndata.AnnData.varm` to 2d {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1962`)
- {guilabel}`rc3` Update zarr v3 bound to >3.0.8 to prevent corrupted data {issue}`zarr-developers/zarr-python#3061` {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1993`)
#### Features
- {guilabel}`rc1` {data}`None` values can now be serialized to `.h5ad` and `.zarr`,
preserving e.g. {attr}`~anndata.AnnData.uns` structure through saving and loading {user}`flying-sheep` ({pr}`999`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Add {func}`~anndata.experimental.read_elem_lazy` (in place of `read_elem_as_dask`) to handle backed dataframes, sparse arrays, and dense arrays, as well as a {func}`~anndata.experimental.read_lazy` to handle reading in as much of the on-disk data as possible to produce a {class}`~anndata.AnnData` object {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1247`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Support {mod}`zarr` version 3 python package {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1726`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Adopt the Scientific Python [deprecation schedule](https://scientific-python.org/specs/spec-0000/) {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1768`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` Allow {mod}`zarr` v3 writing of data {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1892`)
- {guilabel}`rc1` {func}`anndata.register_anndata_namespace` functionality for adding custom functionality to an {class}`~anndata.AnnData` object {user}`srivarra` ({pr}`1870`)
- {guilabel}`rc2` Allow xarray Datasets to be used for obs/var/obsm/varm. {user}`ilia-kats` ({pr}`1966`)
- {guilabel}`rc4` {class}`anndata.experimental.backed.Dataset2D` now takes a compositional approach to wrapping {class}`xarray.Dataset` which may have breaking changes over the past release versions. {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`1997`)
- {guilabel}`rc4` Use {attr}`numpy.dtypes.StringDType` with `na_object` set to {attr}`pandas.NA` for nullable string data with {class}`anndata.experimental.backed.Dataset2D` {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`2011`)
#### Performance
- {guilabel}`rc2` Load AnnLoader lazily to prevent expensive unnecessary `torch` imports when its available on the system. {user}`Zethson` & {user}`flying-sheep` ({pr}`1950`)
- {guilabel}`rc4` Improve {func}`~anndata.experimental.read_elem_lazy` performance for `h5ad` files by not caching `indptr`. {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`2005`)
#### Development
- {guilabel}`rc4` Temporarily bound {mod}`zarr` to `<3.1` until {pr}`1995` is merged to handle the new data type structure. {user}`ilan-gold` ({pr}`2013`)
