  • v0.4.4 Changes

    July 30, 2021

    🛠 Fixes

    • ↪ Includes a workaround for a runtime crash with certain OptionGroup configurations when a command is compiled in release mode.

  • v0.4.3 Changes

    April 28, 2021

    ➕ Additions

    • Experimental API for hiding @OptionGroup-declared properties from the help screen.

    🚀 The 0.4.3 release includes a contribution from [miggs597]. Thank you!

  • v0.4.2 Changes

    April 21, 2021

    🛠 Fixes

    • Both parts of a flag with an inversion are now hidden when specified.
    • 👍 Better support for building on OpenBSD.
    • 📜 Optional unparsed values are now always properly decoded. ([#290])
    • Help information from super-commands is no longer unnecessarily injected into subcommand help screens.

    🚀 The 0.4.2 release includes contributions from [3405691582], [kylemacomber], [miggs597], [natecook1000], and [werm098]. Thank you!

  • v0.4.1 Changes

    March 08, 2021

    ➕ Additions

    • When a user provides an invalid value as an argument or option, the error message now includes the help text for that argument.

    🛠 Fixes

    • Zsh completion scripts for commands that include a hyphen no longer cause errors.
    • 📜 Optional unparsed values are now decoded correctly in ParsableArguments types.

    🚀 The 0.4.1 release includes contributions from [adellibovi] and [natecook1000]. Thank you!

  • v0.4.0 Changes

    March 04, 2021

    ➕ Additions

    • 👍 Short options can now support "joined option" syntax, which lets users specify a value appended immediately after the option's short name. For example, in addition to calling this example command with -D debug and -D=debug, users can now write -Ddebug for the same parsed value. ([#240])
      @main
  struct Example: ParsableCommand {
      @Option(name: .customShort("D", allowingJoined: true))
      var debugValue: String

      func run() {
          print(debugValue)
      }
  }

    🔄 Changes

    • The CommandConfiguration.helpNames property is now optional, to allow the overridden help flags of parent commands to flow down to their children. Most existing code should not be affected, but if you've customized a command's help flags you may see different behavior. ([#251])
    • The errorCode property is no longer used as a command's exit code when CustomNSError types are thrown. ([#276])

    Migration: Instead of throwing a CustomNSError type, print your error manually and throw an ExitCode error to customize your command's exit code.

    Removals

    • 🚚 Old, deprecated property wrapper initializers have been removed.

    🛠 Fixes

    • Validation errors now show the correct help flags when help flags have been customized.
    • Options, flags, and arguments that are marked as hidden from the help screen are also suppressed from completion scripts.
    • 📜 Non-parsed variable properties are now allowed in parsable types.
    • Error messages produced when NSError types are thrown have been improved.
    • The usage line for commands with a large number of options includes more detail about required flags and positional arguments.
    • 👌 Support for CMake builds on Apple Silicon is improved.

    🚀 The 0.4.0 release includes contributions from [CodaFi], [lorentey], [natecook1000], [schlagelk], and [Zoha131]. Thank you!

  • v0.3.2 Changes

    January 15, 2021

    🛠 Fixes

    • 🔄 Changes made to a command's properties in its validate method are now persisted.
    • The exit code defined by error types that conform to CustomNSError are now honored.
    • 👌 Improved error message when declaring a command type with an unadorned mutable property. (See [#256] for more.)
    • 🏁 Migrated from CRT to MSVCRT for Windows platforms.
    • 🛠 Fixes and improvements for building with CMake for Windows and Apple Silicon.
    • 📚 Documentation improvements.

    🚀 The 0.3.2 release includes contributions from [compnerd], [CypherPoet], [damuellen], [drewmccormack], [elliottwilliams], [gmittert], [MaxDesiatov], [natecook1000], [pegasuze], and [SergeyPetrachkov]. Thank you!

  • v0.3.1 Changes

    September 02, 2020

    🛠 Fixes

    • An option or flag can now declare a name with both single- and double- dash prefixes, such as -my-flag and --my-flag. Specify both names in the name parameter when declaring your property:
      @Flag(name: [.long, .customLong("my-flag", withSingleDash: true)])
  var myFlag = false
    • 🐎 Parsing performance improvements.

  • v0.3.0 Changes

    August 15, 2020

    ➕ Additions

    • Shell completions scripts are now available for Fish.

    🔄 Changes

    • 0️⃣ Array properties without a default value are now treated as required for the user of a command-line tool. In previous versions of the library, these properties defaulted to an empty array; a deprecation was introduced for this behavior in version 0.2.0.

    Migration: Specify an empty array as the default value for properties that should not require user input:

      // old
  @Option var names: [String]
  // new
  @Option var names: [String] = []

    🚀 The 0.3.0 release includes contributions from [dduan], [MPLew-is], [natecook1000], and [thomasvl]. Thank you!

  • v0.2.2 Changes

    August 05, 2020

    🛠 Fixes

    • 📚 Zsh completion scripts have improved documentation and better support multi-word completion strings, escaped characters, non-standard executable locations, and empty help strings.

    🚀 The 0.2.2 release includes contributions from [interstateone], [miguelangel-dev], [natecook1000], [stuartcarnie], and [Wevah]. Thank you!

  • v0.2.1 Changes

    July 30, 2020

    ➕ Additions

    • You can now generate Bash and Zsh shell completion scripts for commands, either by using the --generate-completion-script flag when running a command, or by calling the static completionScript(for:) method on a root ParsableCommand type. See the [guide to completion scripts][comp-guide] for information on customizing and installing the completion script for your command.

    🛠 Fixes

    • Property wrappers without parameters can now be written without parentheses — e.g. @Flag var verbose = false.
    • 0️⃣ When displaying default values for array properties, the help screen now correctly uses the element type's ExpressibleByArgument conformance to generate the description.
    • ⚙ Running a project that defines a command as its own subcommand now fails with a useful error message.

    🚀 The 0.2.1 release includes contributions from [natecook1000], [NicFontana], [schlagelk], [sharplet], and [Wevah]. Thank you!
