|
|

|
|
## 0.8.2 - 08/01/2017
|
|
|
|
This is a small bug fix release which resolves problems with the installation
|
|
of Aporia (and likely other Nimble packages).
|
|
|
|
## 0.8.0 - 05/01/2017
|
|
|
|
This is a large release containing multiple new features and many bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
* Implemented a completely new output system.
|
|
* Supports different message types and priorities. Each is differently
|
|
encoded using a color and a brightness.
|
|
* The amount of messages shown can be changed by using the new ``--verbose``
|
|
and ``--debug`` flags, by default only high priority messages are shown.
|
|
* Duplicate warnings are filtered out to prevent too much noise.
|
|
* Package namespaces are now validated. You will see a warning whenever an
|
|
incorrectly namespaced package is read by Nimble, this can occur either
|
|
during installation or when the installed package database is being loaded.
|
|
The namespacing rules are described in Nimble's
|
|
[readme](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble#libraries).
|
|
**Consider these warnings to be unstable, if you see something that you
|
|
think is incorrect please report it**.
|
|
* Special version dependencies are now installed into a directory with that
|
|
special version in its name. For example, ``compiler@#head`` will be installed
|
|
into ``~/.nimble/pkgs/compiler-#head``. This reduces the amount of redundant
|
|
installs. See [#88](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble/issues/88) for
|
|
more information.
|
|
* External dependencies can now be specified in .nimble files. Nimble doesn't
|
|
install these, but does instruct the user on how they can be installed.
|
|
More information about this feature can be found in the
|
|
[readme](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble#external-dependencies).
|
|
* Nimble now supports package aliases in the packages.json files.
|
|
* Fixed regression that caused transitive dependencies to not be installed.
|
|
* Fixed problem with ``install`` command when a ``src`` directory is present
|
|
in the current directory.
|
|
* Improved quoting of process execution arguments.
|
|
* Many improvements to custom ``--nimbleDir`` handling. All commands should now
|
|
support it correctly.
|
|
* Running ``nimble -v`` will no longer read the Nimble config before displaying
|
|
the version.
|
|
* Refresh command now supports a package list name as argument.
|
|
* Fixes issues with symlinks not being removed correctly.
|
|
* Changed the way the ``dump`` command locates the .nimble file.

|
## 0.7.10 - 09/10/2016
|
|
|
|
This release includes multiple bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
* Reverted patch that breaks binary stubs in Git Bash on Windows.
|
|
* The ``nimscriptapi.nim`` file is now statically compiled into the binary.
|
|
This should fix the "could not find nimscriptapi.nim" errors. The file can
|
|
still be overriden by placing a file named ``nimscriptapi.nim`` inside a
|
|
``nimblepkg`` directory that is placed alongside the Nimble binary, or
|
|
by a ``nimscriptapi.nim`` file inside ``~/.nimble/pkgs/nimble-ver/nimblepkg/``.
|
|
For more information see the
|
|
[code that looks for this file](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble/blob/v0.7.10/src/nimblepkg/nimscriptsupport.nim#L176).
|
|
* Nim files can now be imported in .nimble nimscript files. (Issue [#186](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble/issues/186))
|
|
* Requiring a specific git commit hash no longer fails. (Issue [#129](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble/issues/129))
