CHANGES.md

0.17

• Add runEnvironment key to control environment variables
• Remove runMain and run dry parameter, add runProcess instead
• Improve machine readable output ergonomics
  • Option now also has a short name
  • SHELL format now supports propagating exit code
  • run task returns ExitCode object implementing WithExitCode
• The big flattening: Removed Keys, Configurations and Archetypes objects. Their content is now in top level variables in respective packages (wemi.keys.run for example). This should help with wildcard importing.
• Added a concept of user defined commands, which work similarly to keys, but have a fixed binding and can be only invoked in the top level
• Input parameters are now applicable only to commands, not to key bindings

0.16 2020-12-21

• In plugin for intellij plugins: Added ability to instrument classes with not-null assertions and to compile .form files
• JUnit test dependencies are added in testing: again
• Add ability to machine-readable-print more types, namely Pair, DokkaOptions, TestReport, TestParameters and InfoNode
• Update JLine to 3.18.0, this should help with color codes on Windows
• Force hotfix: SimpleHistory did not implement some new methods from JLine

0.15 2020-11-16

• Housekeeping update
• Generated sources are now in /build-generated/ to prevent IDE conflicts
• Changed what can be extended and what can extend (ConfigurationExtensions can no longer extend, but everything else can be extended, including projects and archetypes)
• Removed Keys.javaExecutable, the information is now carried in Keys.javaHome
• Added IntelliJ Plugin Verifier support to intellij ide plugin

0.14 2020-11-04

• Do not upgrade to this version
• Fix aggregate project's test attempting to test untestable subprojects
• Improved java detection on macOS
• Initial and work-in-progress support for Kotlin JavaScript backend and TeaVM
• Internal robustness improvements in handling broken dependencies and Maven version ranges
• Add runSystemProperties key for easier handling of Java's system properties. The properties are included into runOptions by default.
• Having multiple keys with the same name should no longer completely break the build
• Maven dependency resolver now checks WEMI_MAVEN_OS_NAME, WEMI_MAVEN_OS_ARCH, WEMI_MAVEN_OS_VERSION and WEMI_MAVEN_OS_FAMILY environment variables to detect relevant profile activation properties

• Introduced aggregate scope to implement aggregate project dependency more cleanly
• Removed running, compiling, assembling and archiving configurations, they are not necessary anymore
• Removed retrievingSources and retrievingDocs configurations, use new keys externalSources and externalDocs instead

0.11 2019-12-29

• JUnit dependencies are now bundled by default, you don't have to add them manually
  • They are hidden in testing configuration
• Better resource handling in aggregate archetype
• compilingJava and compilingKotlin configurations are gone. Compiler flags can be set directly.

0.10 2019-12-28

• New distribution scheme - launcher is now a shell script, not a fat-jar
• It is possible to specify scope for ProjectDependency
• Rename BlankJVMProject to AggregateJVMProject
• Rename libraryDependencyProjectMapper to libraryDependencyMapper
• Minor improvements

0.9 2019-07-11

• Improve Maven dependency resolution system
  • Handles transitive dependencies, dependencyManagement, exclusions and scopes in the same way as Maven itself does
  • Attempts to properly detect multiple repositories which host same artifact and warns if their content differs
  • DependencyId.scope now works as expected, it is no longer just a dummy value
    • Previous approach of setting "scope" indirectly through using(compiling/running/testing) is still supported
• Default project can now be set directly in the build script, through Project.makeDefault()
• Progress for long running dependency downloads is now shown, along with download speed and ETA
• run key now supports dry=true input to just print the command used to run the program
• HTTPS security can now be relaxed on a per-repo basis. This is inherently unsafe, so it is accompanied by a healthy dose of warnings.
• Remove old Kotlin versions (1.2.21 and 1.2.41) and add latest one instead (1.3.41)
• CLI: X/ where X is a project name is now an alias for project X, for switching session's default project
• Internal: Directory locking is now more reliable

0.8 2019-02-18

• Deprecate some utility methods in favor of using constructors directly (FileSet, dependency for project dependencies)
  • import wemi.* is now assumed to be present in build scripts for more fluent api
• When running through run key, SIGINT is forwarded to the running program
• Make FileSet more expressive
• Refactored and partially rewritten Maven dependency resolution and related classes
  • nicer API
  • support -SNAPSHOT versions
  • more control over checksum mismatches
• Key.add and similar extension methods no longer incorrectly allow arbitrary types to be added

• Improve Path and URL div extension operators to handle . and .. paths correctly and be more intuitive in general

0.7 2019-02-05

• Replaced (re)sourceRoots, sourceExtensions and (re)sourceFiles with single (re)sources key, powered by FileSet class (inspired by Ant's <fileSet>)
• Add new key value caching system (see EvalScope)
• Remove anonymous configurations
• When evaluating keys, current evaluation stack is displayed in the CLI
• Input system rewritten
• It is now possible to specify pattern to filter which test should run in test
• Change how Wemi is bundled and launched internally, which should improve IDE behavior
• Many bug fixes and robustness improvements

0.6 2018-10-21

• Add support for Kotlin 1.2.71
• Fix resourceRoots not being set according to projectRoot
• Fix Maven dependency resolution not considering parent poms

• Buildable using jitpack.io (see jitpack.yml for use in your own projects)

0.3 2018-04-08

• Change CLI options to follow GNU standard, including long/short options and --help/--version convention. Old Java-style options are no longer supported.
• Allow to debug run and test tasks with new debug: configuration
• Improve JUnit test reports (mostly with colors)
• Add explicit color/unicode toggles, to be more bad-OS friendly
