# Changelog
|
|
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
|
|
|
|
## 1.27.0 - 2023-03-05
|
|
- Change semantics around bracket tuples to no longer be equal to regular tuples.
|
|
- Add `index` argument to `ffi/write` for symmetry with `ffi/read`.
|
|
- Add `buffer/push-at`
|
|
- Add `ffi/pointer-buffer` to convert pointers to buffers the cannot be reallocated. This
|
|
allows easier manipulation of FFI memory, memory mapped files, and buffer memory shared between threads.
|
|
- Calling `ev/cancel` on a fiber waiting on `ev/gather` will correctly
|
|
cancel the child fibers.
|
|
- Add `(sandbox ...)` function to core for permission based security. Also add `janet_sandbox` to C API.
|
|
The sandbox allows limiting access to the file system, network, ffi, and OS resources at runtime.
|
|
- Add `(.locals)` function to debugger to see currently bound local symbols.
|
|
- Track symbol -> slot mapping so debugger can get symbolic information. This exposes local bindings
|
|
in `debug/stack` and `disasm`.
|
|
- Add `os/compiler` to detect what host compiler was used to compile the interpreter
|
|
- Add support for mingw and cygwin builds (mingw support also added in jpm).
|
|
|
|
## 1.26.0 - 2023-01-07
|
|
- Add `ffi/malloc` and `ffi/free`. Useful as tools of last resort.
|
|
- Add `ffi/jitfn` to allow calling function pointers generated at runtime from machine code.
|
|
Bring your own assembler, though.
|
|
- Channels can now be marshalled. Pending state is not saved, only items in the channel.
|
|
- Use the new `.length` function pointer on abstract types for lengths. Adding
|
|
a `length` method will still work as well.
|
|
- Support byte views on abstract types with the `.bytes` function pointer.
|
|
- Add the `u` format specifier to printf family functions.
|
|
- Allow printing 64 integer types in `printf` and `string/format` family functions.
|
|
- Allow importing modules from custom directories more easily with the `@` prefix
|
|
to module paths. For example, if there is a dynamic binding :custom-modules that
|
|
is a file system path to a directory of modules, import from that directory with
|
|
`(import @custom-modules/mymod)`.
|
|
- Fix error message bug in FFI library.
|
|
|
|
## 1.25.1 - 2022-10-29
|
|
- Add `memcmp` function to core library.
|
|
- Fix bug in `os/open` with `:rw` permissions not correct on Linux.
|
|
- Support config.mk for more easily configuring the Makefile.
|
|
|
|
## 1.25.0 - 2022-10-10
|
|
- Windows FFI fixes.
|
|
- Fix PEG `if-not` combinator with captures in the condition
|
|
- Fix bug with `os/date` with nil first argument
|
|
- Fix bug with `net/accept` on Linux that could leak file descriptors to subprocesses
|
|
- Reduce number of hash collisions from pointer hashing
|
|
- Add optional parameter to `marshal` to skip cycle checking code
|
|
|
|
## 1.24.1 - 2022-08-24
|
|
- Fix FFI bug on Linux/Posix
|
|
- Improve parse error messages for bad delimiters.
|
|
- Add optional `name` parameter to the `short-fn` macro.
|
|
|
|
## 1.24.0 - 2022-08-14
|
|
- Add FFI support to 64-bit windows compiled with MSVC
|
|
- Don't process shared object names passed to dlopen.
|
|
- Add better support for windows console in the default shell.c for auto-completion and
|
|
other shell-like input features.
|
|
- Improve default error message from `assert`.
|
|
- Add the `tabseq` macro for simpler table comprehensions.
|
|
- Allow setting `(dyn :task-id)` in fibers to improve context in supervisor messages. Prior to
|
|
this change, supervisor messages over threaded channels would be from ambiguous threads/fibers.
|
|
|
|
## 1.23.0 - 2022-06-20
|
|
- Add experimental `ffi/` module for interfacing with dynamic libraries and raw function pointers. Only available
|
|
on 64 bit linux, mac, and bsd systems.
|
|
- Allow using `&named` in function prototypes for named arguments. This is a more ergonomic
|
|
variant of `&keys` that isn't as redundant, more self documenting, and allows extension to
|
|
things like default arguments.
|
|
- Add `delay` macro for lazy evaluate-and-save thunks.
|
|
- Remove pthread.h from janet.h for easier includes.
|
|
- Add `debugger` - an easy to use debugger function that just takes a fiber.
|
|
- `dofile` will now start a debugger on errors if the environment it is passed has `:debug` set.
|
|
- Add `debugger-on-status` function, which can be passed to `run-context` to start a debugger on
|
|
abnormal fiber signals.
|
|
- Allow running scripts with the `-d` flag to use the built-in debugger on errors and breakpoints.
|
|
- Add mutexes (locks) and reader-writer locks to ev module for thread coordination.
|
|
- Add `parse-all` as a generalization of the `parse` function.
|
|
- Add `os/cpu-count` to get the number of available processors on a machine
|
|
|
|
## 1.22.0 - 2022-05-09
|
|
- Prohibit negative size argument to `table/new`.
|
|
- Add `module/value`.
|
|
- Remove `file/popen`. Use `os/spawn` with the `:pipe` options instead.
|
|
- Fix bug in peg `thru` and `to` combinators.
|
|
- Fix printing issue in `doc` macro.
|
|
- Numerous updates to function docstrings
|
|
- Add `defdyn` aliases for various dynamic bindings used in core.
|
|
- Install `janet.h` symlink to make Janet native libraries and applications
|
|
easier to build without `jpm`.
|
|
|
|
## 1.21.2 - 2022-04-01
|
|
- C functions `janet_dobytes` and `janet_dostring` will now enter the event loop if it is enabled.
|
|
- Fix hashing regression - hash of negative 0 must be the same as positive 0 since they are equal.
|
|
- The `flycheck` function no longer pollutes the module/cache
|
|
- Fix quasiquote bug in compiler
|
|
- Disallow use of `cancel` and `resume` on fibers scheduled or created with `ev/go`, as well as the root
|
|
fiber.
|
|
|
|
## 1.20.0 - 2022-1-27
|
|
- Add `:missing-symbol` hook to `compile` that will act as a catch-all macro for undefined symbols.
|
|
- Add `:redef` dynamic binding that will allow users to redefine top-level bindings with late binding. This
|
|
is intended for development use.
|
|
- Fix a bug with reading from a stream returned by `os/open` on Windows and Linux.
|
|
- Add `:ppc64` as a detectable OS type.
|
|
- Add `& more` support for destructuring in the match macro.
|
|
- Add `& more` support for destructuring in all binding forms (`def`).
|
|
|
|
## 1.19.2 - 2021-12-06
|
|
- Fix bug with missing status lines in some stack traces.

|
|
- Allow quoted literals in the `match` macro to behave as expected in patterns.
|
|
- Fix windows net related bug for TCP servers.
|
|
- Allow evaluating ev streams with dofile.
|
|
- Fix `ev` related bug with operations on already closed file descriptors.
|
|
- Add struct and table agnostic `getproto` function.
|
|
- Add a number of functions related to structs.
|
|
- Add prototypes to structs. Structs can now inherit from other structs, just like tables.
|
|
- Create a struct with a prototype with `struct/with-proto`.
|
|
- Deadlocked channels will no longer exit early - instead they will hang, which is more intuitive.
|
|
|
|
## 1.18.1 - 2021-10-16
|
|
- Fix some documentation typos
|
|
- Fix - Set pipes passed to subprocess to blocking mode.

|
|
- Add `-i` flag to janet binary to make it easier to run image files from the command line
|
|
- Remove `thread/` module.
|
|
- Add `(number ...)` pattern to peg for more efficient number parsing using Janet's
|
|
scan-number function without immediate string creation.
|
|
|
|
## 1.17.2 - 2021-09-18
|
|
- Remove include of windows.h from janet.h. This caused issues on certain projects.
|
|
- Fix formatting in doc-format to better handle special characters in signatures.
|
|
- Fix some marshalling bugs.
|
|
- Add optional Makefile target to install jpm as well.
|
|
- Supervisor channels in threads will no longer include a wasteful copy of the fiber in every
|
|
message across a thread.
|
|
- Allow passing a closure to `ev/thread` as well as a whole fiber.
|
|
- Allow passing a closure directly to `ev/go` to spawn fibers on the event loop.
|
|
|
|
## 1.17.1 - 2021-08-29

|
|
- Add `make install-jpm-git` to make jpm co-install simpler if using the Makefile.
|
|
- Fix bugs with starting ev/threads and fiber marshaling.
|
|
|
|
## 1.17.0 - 2021-08-21
|
|
- Add the `-E` flag for one-liners with the `short-fn` syntax for argument passing.
|
|
- Add support for threaded abstract types. Threaded abstract types can easily be shared between threads.
|
|
- Deprecate the `thread` library. Use threaded channels and ev instead.
|
|
- Channels can now be marshalled.
|
|
- Add the ability to close channels with `ev/chan-close` (or `:close`).
|
|
- Add threaded channels with `ev/thread-chan`.
|
|
- Add `JANET_FN` and `JANET_REG` macros to more easily define C functions that export their source mapping information.
|
|
- Add `janet_interpreter_interupt` and `janet_loop1_interrupt` to interrupt the interpreter while running.
|
|
- Add `table/clear`
|
|
- Add build option to disable the threading library without disabling all threads.
|
|
- Remove JPM from the main Janet distribution. Instead, JPM must be installed
|
|
separately like any other package.
|
|
- Fix issue with `ev/go` when called with an initial value and supervisor.
|
|
- Add the C API functions `janet_vm_save` and `janet_vm_load` to allow
|
|
saving and restoring the entire VM state.
|
|
|
|
## 1.16.1 - 2021-06-09
|
|
- Add `maclintf` - a utility for adding linting messages when inside macros.
|
|
- Print source code of offending line on compiler warnings and errors.
|
|
- Fix some issues with linting and re-add missing `make docs`.
|
|
- Allow controlling linting with dynamic bindings `:lint-warn`, `:lint-error`, and `:lint-levels`.
|
|
- Add `-w` and `-x` command line flags to the `janet` binary to set linting thresholds.
|
|
linting thresholds are as follows:
|
|
- :none - will never be trigger.
|
|
- :relaxed - will only trigger on `:relaxed` lints.
|
|
- :normal - will trigger on `:relaxed` and `:normal` lints.
|
|
- :strict - will trigger on `:strict`, `:normal`, and `:relaxed` lints. This will catch the most issues
|
|
but can be distracting.
|
|
|
|
## 1.16.0 - 2021-05-30
|
|
- Add color documentation to the `doc` macro - enable/disable with `(dyn :doc-color)`.
|
|
- Remove simpler HTML docs from distribution - use website or built-in documentation instead.
|
|
- Add compiler warnings and deprecation levels.
|
|
- Add `as-macro` to make using macros within quasiquote easier to do hygienically.
|
|
- Expose `JANET_OUT_OF_MEMORY` as part of the Janet API.
|
|
- Add `native-deps` option to `declare-native` in `jpm`. This lets native libraries link to other
|
|
native libraries when building with jpm.
|
|
- Remove the `tarray` module. The functionality of typed arrays will be moved to an external module
|
|
that can be installed via `jpm`.
|
|
- Add `from-pairs` to core.
|
|
- Add `JPM_OS_WHICH` environment variable to jpm to allow changing auto-detection behavior.
|
|
- The flychecker will consider any top-level calls of functions that start with `define-` to
|
|
be safe to execute and execute them. This allows certain patterns (like spork/path) to be
|
|
better processed by the flychecker.
|
|
|
|
## 1.15.5 - 2021-04-25
|
|
- Add `declare-headers` to jpm.
|
|
- Fix error using unix pipes on BSDs.
|
|
- Support .cc and .cxx extensions in `jpm` for C++ code.
|
|
- Change networking code to not create as many HUP errors.
|
|
- Add `net/shutdown` to close sockets in one direction without hang ups.
|
|
- Update code for printing the debug repl
|
|
|
|
## 1.15.4 - 2021-03-16

|
|
- Add `unref` combinator to pegs.
|
|

|
|
- Fix peg integer reading combinators when used with capture tags.
|
|
|
|
## 1.15.0 - 2021-02-08
|
|
- Fix `gtim` and `ltim` bytecode instructions on non-integer values.
|
|
- Clean up output of flychecking to be the same as the repl.
|
|
- Change behavior of `debug/stacktrace` with a nil error value.
|
|
- Add optional argument to `parser/produce`.
|
|
- Add `no-core` option to creating standalone binaries to make execution faster.
|
|
- Fix bug where a buffer overflow could be confused with an out of memory error.
|
|
- Change error output to `file:line:column: message`. Column is in bytes - tabs
|
|
are considered to have width 1 (instead of 8).
|
|
|
|
## 1.14.2 - 2021-01-23
|
|
- Allow `JANET_PROFILE` env variable to load a profile before loading the repl.
|
|
- Update `tracev` macro to allow `def` and `var` inside to work as expected.
|
|
- Use `(dyn :peg-grammar)` for passing a default grammar to `peg/compile` instead of loading
|
|
`default-peg-grammar` directly from the root environment.
|
|
- Add `ev/thread` for combining threading with the event loop.
|
|
- Add `ev/do-thread` to make `ev/thread` easier to use.
|
|
- Automatically set supervisor channel in `net/accept-loop` and `net/server` correctly.
|
|
|
|
## 1.14.1 - 2021-01-18
|
|
- Add `doc-of` for reverse documentation lookup.
|
|
- Add `ev/give-supervsior` to send a message to the supervising channel.
|
|
- Add `ev/gather` and `chan` argument to `ev/go`. This new argument allows "supervisor channels"
|
|
for fibers to enable structured concurrency.
|
|
- Make `-k` flag work on stdin if no files are given.
|
|
- Add `flycheck` function to core.
|
|
- Make `backmatch` and `backref` more expressive in pegs.
|
|
- Fix buggy `string/split`.
|
|
- Add `fiber/last-value` to get the value that was last yielded, errored, or signaled
|
|
by a fiber.
|
|
- Remove `:generate` verb from `loop` macros. Instead, use the `:in` verb
|
|
which will now work on fibers as well as other data structures.
|
|
- Define `next`, `get`, and `in` for fibers. This lets
|
|
`each`, `map`, and similar iteration macros can now iterate over fibers.
|
|
- Remove macro `eachy`, which can be replaced by `each`.
|
|
- Add `dflt` argument to find-index.
|
|
- Deprecate `file/popen` in favor of `os/spawn`.
|
|
- Add `:all` keyword to `ev/read` and `net/read` to make them more like `file/read`. However, we
|
|
do not provide any `:line` option as that requires buffering.
|
|
- Change repl behavior to make Ctrl-C raise SIGINT on posix. The old behavior for Ctrl-C,
|
|
to clear the current line buffer, has been moved to Ctrl-Q.
|
|
- Importing modules that start with `/` is now the only way to import from project root.
|
|
Before, this would import from / on disk. Previous imports that did not start with `.` or `/`
|
|
are now unambiguously importing from the syspath, instead of checking both the syspath and
|
|
the project root. This is backwards incompatible and dependencies should be updated for this.
|
|
- Change hash function for numbers.
|
|
- Improve error handling of `dofile`.
|
|
- Bug fixes in networking and subprocess code.
|
|
- Use markdown formatting in more places for docstrings.
|
|
|
|
## 1.13.1 - 2020-12-13
|
|
- Pretty printing a table with a prototype will look for `:_name` instead of `:name`
|
|
in the prototype table to tag the output.
|
|
- `match` macro implementation changed to be tail recursive.
|
|
- Adds a :preload loader which allows one to manually put things into `module/cache`.
|
|
- Add `buffer/push` function.
|
|
- Backtick delimited strings and buffers are now reindented based on the column of the
|
|
opening delimiter. Whitespace in columns to the left of the starting column is ignored unless
|
|
there are non-space/non-newline characters in that region, in which case the old behavior is preserved.
|
|
- Argument to `(error)` combinator in PEGs is now optional.
|
|
- Add `(line)` and `(column)` combinators to PEGs to capture source line and column.
|
|
This should make error reporting a bit easier.
|
|
- Add `merge-module` to core.
|
|
- During installation and release, merge janetconf.h into janet.h for easier install.
|
|
- Add `upscope` special form.
|
|
- `os/execute` and `os/spawn` can take streams for redirecting IO.
|
|
- Add `:parser` and `:read` parameters to `run-context`.
|
|
- Add `os/open` if ev is enabled.
|
|
- Add `os/pipe` if ev is enabled.
|
|
- Add `janet_thread_current(void)` to C API
|
|
- Add integer parsing forms to pegs. This makes parsing many binary protocols easier.
|
|
- Lots of updates to networking code - now can use epoll (or poll) on linux and IOCP on windows.
|
|
- Add `ev/` module. This exposes a fiber scheduler, queues, timeouts, and other functionality to users
|
|
for single threaded cooperative scheduling and asynchronous IO.
|
|
- Add `net/accept-loop` and `net/listen`. These functions break down `net/server` into it's essential parts
|
|
and are more flexible. They also allow further improvements to these utility functions.
|
|
- Various small bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
## 1.12.2 - 2020-09-20
|
|

|
|
When called like this, `os/execute` returns immediately.
|
|
- Add `:x` flag to os/execute to raise error when exit code is non-zero.
|
|
- Don't run `main` when flychecking.
|
|
- Add `:n` flag to `file/open` to raise an error if file cannot be opened.
|
|
- Fix import macro to not try and coerce everything to a string.

|
|
- Add lockfiles to `jpm` via `jpm make-lockfile` and `jpm load-lockfile`.
|
|

|
|
- Add `os/chmod`.
|
|
- Add `chr` macro.
|
|

|
|
## 1.7.0 - 2020-02-01
|
|
- Remove `file/fileno` and `file/fdopen`.
|
|
- Remove `==`, `not==`, `order<`, `order>`, `order<=`, and `order>=`. Instead, use the normal
|
|
comparison and equality functions.
|
|
- Let abstract types define a hash function and comparison/equality semantics. This lets
|
|
abstract types much better represent value types. This adds more fields to abstract types, which
|
|
will generate warnings when compiled against other versions.
|
|
- Remove Emscripten build. Instead, use the amalgamated source code with a custom toolchain.
|
|
- Update documentation.
|
|
- Add `var-`
|

|
- Add `file/temp`
|
|
- Add `mod` function to core.
|
|
- Small bug fixes
|
|

|
|
makes it easy to write C functions that work with event loops, such as
|
|
in libuv or embedded in a game.
|
|
- Add '%j' formatting option to the format family of functions.
|
|
- Add `defer`
|
|
- Add `assert`
|
|
- Add `when-with`
|
|
- Add `if-with`
|
|
- Add completion to the default repl based on currently defined bindings. Also generally improve
|
|
the repl keybindings.
|
|
- Add `eachk`
|
|
- Add `eachp`
|
|
- Improve functionality of the `next` function. `next` now works on many different
|
|
types, not just tables and structs. This allows for more generic data processing.
|
|
- Fix thread module issue where sometimes decoding a message failed.
|
|
- Fix segfault regression when macros are called with bad arity.
|
|
|
|
## 1.6.0 - 2019-12-22
|
|
- Add `thread/` module to the core.
|
|
- Allow seeding RNGs with any sequence of bytes. This provides
|
|
a wider key space for the RNG. Exposed in C as `janet_rng_longseed`.
|
|
- Fix issue in `resume` and similar functions that could cause breakpoints to be skipped.
|
|
- Add a number of new math functions.
|
|
- Improve debugger experience and capabilities. See examples/debugger.janet
|
|
for what an interactive debugger could look like.
|
|
- Add `debug/step` (janet\_step in the C API) for single stepping Janet bytecode.
|
|
- The built in repl now can enter the debugger on any signal (errors, yields,
|
|
user signals, and debug signals). To enable this, type (setdyn :debug true)
|
|
in the repl environment.
|
|
- When exiting the debugger, the fiber being debugged is resumed with the exit value
|
|
of the debug session (the value returned by `(quit return-value)`, or nil if user typed Ctrl-D).
|
|
- `(quit)` can take an optional argument that is the return value. If a module
|
|
contains `(quit some-value)`, the value of that module returned to `(require "somemod")`
|
|
is the return value. This lets module writers completely customize a module without writing
|
|
a loader.
|
|
- Add nested quasiquotation.
|
|
- Add `os/cryptorand`
|
|
- Add `prinf` and `eprinf` to be have like `printf` and `eprintf`. The latter two functions
|
|
now including a trailing newline, like the other print functions.
|
|
- Add nan?
|
|
- Add `janet_in` to C API.
|
|
- Add `truthy?`
|
|
- Add `os/environ`
|
|
- Add `buffer/fill` and `array/fill`
|
|
- Add `array/new-filled`
|
|
- Use `(doc)` with no arguments to see available bindings and dynamic bindings.
|
|
- `jpm` will use `CC` and `AR` environment variables when compiling programs.
|
|
- Add `comptime` macro for compile time evaluation.
|
|
- Run `main` functions in scripts if they exist, just like jpm standalone binaries.
|
|
- Add `protect` macro.
|
|
- Add `root-env` to get the root environment table.
|
|
- Change marshalling protocol with regard to abstract types.
|
|
- Add `show-paths` to `jpm`.
|
|
- Add several default patterns, like `:d` and `:s+`, to PEGs.
|
|
- Update `jpm` path settings to make using `jpm` easier on non-global module trees.
|
|
- Numerous small bug fixes and usability improvements.
|
|
|
|
### 1.5.1 - 2019-11-16
|
|
- Fix bug when printing buffer to self in some edge cases.
|
|
- Fix bug with `jpm` on windows.
|
|

|
|
|
## 1.5.0 - 2019-11-10
|
|
- `os/date` now defaults to UTC.
|
|
- Add `--test` flag to jpm to test libraries on installation.
|
|
- Add `math/rng`, `math/rng-int`, and `math/rng-uniform`.
|
|
- Add `in` function to index in a stricter manner. Conversely, `get` will
|
|
now not throw errors on bad keys.
|
|
- Indexed types and byte sequences will now error when indexed out of range or
|
|
with bad keys.
|
|
- Add rng functions to Janet. This also replaces the RNG behind `math/random`
|
|
and `math/seedrandom` with a consistent, platform independent RNG.
|
|
- Add `with-vars` macro.
|
|
- Add the `quickbin` command to jpm.
|
|
- Create shell.c when making the amalgamated source. This can be compiled with
|
|
janet.c to make the janet interpreter.
|
|
- Add `cli-main` function to the core, which invokes Janet's CLI interface.
|
|
This basically moves what was init.janet into boot.janet.
|
|
- Improve flychecking, and fix flychecking bugs introduced in 1.4.0.
|
|
- Add `prin`, `eprint`, `eprintf` and `eprin` functions. The
|
|
functions prefix with e print to `(dyn :err stderr)`
|
|
- Print family of functions can now also print to buffers
|
|
(before, they could only print to files.) Output can also
|
|
be completely disabled with `(setdyn :out false)`.
|
|
- `printf` is now a c function for optimizations in the case
|
|
of printing to buffers.
|
|
|
|
## 1.4.0 - 2019-10-14
|
|
- Add `quit` function to exit from a repl, but not always exit the entire
|
|
application.
|
|
- Add `update-pkgs` to jpm.
|
|
- Integrate jpm with https://github.com/janet-lang/pkgs.git. jpm can now
|
|
install packages based on their short names in the package listing, which
|
|
can be customized via an env variable.
|
|
- Add `varfn` macro
|
|
- Add compile time arity checking when function in function call is known.
|
|
- Added `slice` to the core library.
|
|
- The `*/slice` family of functions now can take nil as start or end to get
|
|
the same behavior as the defaults (0 and -1) for those parameters.
|
|
- `string/` functions that take a pattern to search for will throw an error
|
|
when receiving the empty string.
|
|
- Replace (start:end) style stacktrace source position information with
|
|
line, column. This should be more readable for humans. Also, range information
|
|
can be recovered by re-parsing source.
|
|
|
|
## 1.3.1 - 2019-09-21
|
|
- Fix some linking issues when creating executables with native dependencies.
|
|
- jpm now runs each test script in a new interpreter.
|
|
- Fix an issue that prevent some valid programs from compiling.
|
|
- Add `mean` to core.
|
|
- Abstract types that implement the `:+`, `:-`, `:*`, `:/`, `:>`, `:==`, `:<`,
|
|
`:<=`, and `:>=` methods will work with the corresponding built-in
|
|
arithmetic functions. This means built-in integer types can now be used as
|
|
normal number values in many contexts.
|
|
- Allow (length x) on typed arrays an other abstract types that implement
|
|
the :length method.
|
|
|
|
## 1.3.0 - 2019-09-05
|
|
- Add `get-in`, `put-in`, `update-in`, and `freeze` to core.
|
|
- Add `jpm run rule` and `jpm rules` to jpm to improve utility and discoverability of jpm.
|
|
- Remove `cook` module and move `path` module to https://github.com/janet-lang/path.git.
|
|
The functionality in `cook` is now bundled directly in the `jpm` script.
|
|
- Add `buffer/format` and `string/format` format flags `Q` and `q` to print colored and
|
|
non-colored single-line values, similar to `P` and `p`.
|
|
- Change default repl to print long sequences on one line and color stacktraces if color is enabled.
|
|
- Add `backmatch` pattern for PEGs.
|
|
- jpm detects if not in a Developer Command prompt on windows for a better error message.
|
|
- jpm install git submodules in dependencies
|
|
- Change default fiber stack limit to the maximum value of a 32 bit signed integer.
|
|
- Some bug fixes with `jpm`
|
|
- Fix bugs with pegs.
|
|
- Add `os/arch` to get ISA that janet was compiled for
|
|
- Add color to stacktraces via `(dyn :err-color)`
|
|
|
|
## 1.2.0 - 2019-08-08
|
|
- Add `take` and `drop` functions that are easier to use compared to the
|
|
existing slice functions.
|
|
- Add optional default value to `get`.
|
|
- Add function literal short-hand via `|` reader macro, which maps to the
|
|
`short-fn` macro.
|
|
- Add `int?` and `nat?` functions to the core.
|
|
- Add `(dyn :executable)` at top level to get what used to be
|
|
`(process/args 0)`.
|
|
- Add `:linux` to platforms returned by `(os/which)`.
|
|
- Update jpm to build standalone executables. Use `declare-executable` for this.
|
|
- Add `use` macro.
|
|
- Remove `process/args` in favor of `(dyn :args)`.
|
|
- Fix bug with Nanbox implementation allowing users to created
|
|
custom values of any type with typed array and marshal modules, which
|
|
was unsafe.
|
|
- Add `janet_wrap_number_safe` to API, for converting numbers to Janets
|
|
where the number could be any 64 bit, user provided bit pattern. Certain
|
|
NaN values (which a machine will never generate as a result of a floating
|
|
point operation) are guarded against and converted to a default NaN value.
|
|
|
|
## 1.1.0 - 2019-07-08
|
|
- Change semantics of `-l` flag to be import rather than dofile.
|
|
- Fix compiler regression in top level defs with destructuring.
|
|
- Add `table/clone`.
|
|
- Improve `jpm` tool with git and dependency capabilities, as well as better
|
|
module uninstalls.
|
|
|
|
## 1.0.0 - 2019-07-01
|
|
- Add `with` macro for resource handling.
|
|
- Add `propagate` function so we can "rethrow" signals after they are
|
|
intercepted. This makes signals even more flexible.
|
|
- Add `JANET_NO_DOCSTRINGS` and `JANET_NO_SOURCEMAPS` defines in janetconf.h
|
|
for shrinking binary size.
|
|
This seems to save about 50kB in most builds, so it's not usually worth it.
|
|
- Update module system to allow relative imports. The `:cur:` pattern
|
|
in `module/expand-path` will expand to the directory part of the current file, or
|
|
whatever the value of `(dyn :current-file)` is. The `:dir:` pattern gets
|
|
the directory part of the input path name.
|
|
- Remove `:native:` pattern in `module/paths`.
|
|
- Add `module/expand-path`
|
|
- Remove `module/*syspath*` and `module/*headerpath*` in favor of dynamic
|
|
bindings `:syspath` and `:headerpath`.
|
|
- Compiled PEGs can now be marshaled and unmarshaled.
|
|

|
|
- Add optional `env` argument to `all-bindings` and `all-dynamics`.
|
|
- Add scratch memory C API functions for auto-released memory on next gc.
|
|
Scratch memory differs from normal GCed memory as it can also be freed normally
|
|
for better performance.
|
|
- Add API compatibility checking for modules. This will let native modules not load
|
|
when the host program is not of a compatible version or configuration.
|
|
- Change signature of `os/execute` to be much more flexible.
|
|
|
|
## 0.6.0 - 2019-05-29

|
|
|
|

|
|
- Fix a number of smaller bugs
|
|
- Added :export option to import and require
|
|
- Added typed arrays
|
|
- Remove `callable?`.
|

|
|
system modules from.
|
|
- Add `-c` flag to main client to allow compiling Janet modules to images.
|
|
- Add `string/format` and `buffer/format`.
|
|
- Remove `string/pretty` and `string/number`.
|
|
- `make-image` function creates pre compiled images for janet. These images
