SpiceyPy 2.2.0

This release includes the last of the geometry finding functions that were not wrapped before. A number of user contributions were included and a few simplifications surrounding spicecells were made to make creating them easier. The NAIF produced spiceypy-based "lessons" (long tutorials) have been added to the documentation and both a issue template and code of conduct were added to the project.

🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉
This release marks the essentially completed wrapping of cspice, functions not wrapped are either not necessary in python (in my opinion) or are the Alpha-DSK backwards compatibility routines (ending in _p102) in N66 CSPICE.

SpiceyPy 1.0.0

SpiceyPy is a python wrapper for the NAIF C-SPICE toolkit. The library currently supports python 2.7.x and 3.X on 32bit and 64bit platforms for OS X, Linux, and Windows operating systems. SpiceyPy utilizes python idioms for error handling and vectorization with convenience functions to support a variety of python collections including NumPy arrays. The library currently supports ninety eight percent of the documented functions in C-SPICE v65.
