|
---|
| 6 |
|
---|
| 7 | ## 1.14.1
|
---|
| 8 |
|
---|
| 9 | - [issue #30] Change the output used by dashdash's Bash completion support to
|
---|
| 10 | indicate "there are no completions for this argument" to cope with different
|
---|
| 11 | sorting rules on different Bash/platforms. For example:
|
---|
| 12 |
|
---|
| 13 | $ triton -v -p test2 package get <TAB> # before
|
---|
| 14 | ##-no -tritonpackage- completions-##
|
---|
| 15 |
|
---|
| 16 | $ triton -v -p test2 package get <TAB> # after
|
---|
| 17 | ##-no-completion- -results-##
|
---|
| 18 |
|
---|
| 19 | ## 1.14.0
|
---|
| 20 |
|
---|
| 21 | - New `synopsisFromOpt(<option spec>)` function. This will be used by
|
---|
| 22 | [node-cmdln](https://github.com/trentm/node-cmdln) to put together a synopsis
|
---|
| 23 | of options for a command. Some examples:
|
---|
| 24 |
|
---|
| 25 | > synopsisFromOpt({names: ['help', 'h'], type: 'bool'});
|
---|
| 26 | '[ --help | -h ]'
|
---|
| 27 | > synopsisFromOpt({name: 'file', type: 'string', helpArg: 'FILE'});
|
---|
| 28 | '[ --file=FILE ]'
|
---|
| 29 |
|
---|
| 30 |
|
---|
| 31 | ## 1.13.1
|
---|
| 32 |
|
---|
| 33 | - [issue #20] `bashCompletionSpecFromOptions` breaks on an options array with
|
---|
| 34 | an empty-string group.
|
---|
| 35 |
|
---|
| 36 |
|
---|
| 37 | ## 1.13.0
|
---|
| 38 |
|
---|
| 39 | - Update assert-plus dep to 1.x to get recent fixes (particularly for
|
---|
| 40 | `assert.optional*`).
|
---|
| 41 |
|
---|
| 42 | - Drop testing (and official support in packages.json#engines) for node 0.8.x.
|
---|
| 43 | Add testing against node 5.x and 4.x with `make testall`.
|
---|
| 44 |
|
---|
| 45 | - [pull #16] Change the `positiveInteger` type to NOT accept zero (0).
|
---|
| 46 | For those who might need the old behaviour, see
|
---|
| 47 | "examples/custom-option-intGteZero.js". (By Dave Pacheco.)
|
---|
| 48 |
|
---|
| 49 |
|
---|
| 50 | ## 1.12.2
|
---|
| 51 |
|
---|
| 52 | - Bash completion: Add `argtypes` to specify the types of positional args.
|
---|
| 53 | E.g. this would allow you to have an `ssh` command with `argtypes = ['host',
|
---|
| 54 | 'cmd']` for bash completion. You then have to provide Bash functions to
|
---|
| 55 | handle completing those types via the `specExtra` arg. See
|
---|
| 56 | "[examples/ddcompletion.js](examples/ddcompletion.js)" for an example.
|
---|
| 57 |
|
---|
| 58 | - Bash completion: Tweak so that options or only offered as completions when
|
---|
| 59 | there is a leading '-'. E.g. `mytool <TAB>` does NOT offer options, `mytool
|
---|
| 60 | -<TAB>` *does*. Without this, a tool with options would never be able to
|
---|
| 61 | fallback to Bash's "default" completion. For example `ls <TAB>` wouldn't
|
---|
| 62 | result in filename completion. Now it will.
|
---|
| 63 |
|
---|
| 64 | - Bash completion: A workaround for not being able to explicitly have *no*
|
---|
| 65 | completion results. Because dashdash's completion uses `complete -o default`,
|
---|
| 66 | we fallback to Bash's "default" completion (typically for filename
|
---|
| 67 | completion). Before this change, an attempt to explicitly say "there are
|
---|
| 68 | no completions that match" would unintentionally trigger filename completion.
|
---|
| 69 | Instead as a workaround we return:
|
---|
| 70 |
|
---|
| 71 | $ ddcompletion --none <TAB> # the 'none' argtype
|
---|
| 72 | ##-no completions-##
|
---|
| 73 |
|
---|
| 74 | $ ddcompletion # a custom 'fruit' argtype
|
---|
| 75 | apple banana orange
|
---|
| 76 | $ ddcompletion z
|
---|
| 77 | ##-no -fruit- completions-##
|
---|
| 78 |
|
---|
| 79 | This is a bit of a hack, but IMO a better experience than the surprise
|
---|
| 80 | of matching a local filename beginning with 'z', which isn't, in this
|
---|
| 81 | case, a "fruit".
|
---|
| 82 |
|
---|
| 83 | ## 1.12.1
|
---|
| 84 |
|
---|
| 85 | - Bash completion: Document `<option spec>.completionType`. Add `includeHidden`
|
---|
| 86 | option to `bashCompletionSpecFromOptions()`. Add support for dealing with
|
---|
| 87 | hidden subcmds.
|
---|
| 88 |
|
---|
| 89 |
|
---|
| 90 | ## 1.12.0
|
---|
| 91 |
|
---|
| 92 | - Support for generating Bash completion files. See the "Bash completion"
|
---|
| 93 | section of the README.md and "examples/ddcompletion.js" for an example.
|
---|
| 94 |
|
---|
| 95 |
|
---|
| 96 | ## 1.11.0
|
---|
| 97 |
|
---|
| 98 | - Add the `arrayFlatten` boolean option to `dashdash.addOptionType` used for
|
---|
| 99 | custom option types. This allows one to create an `arrayOf...` option type
|
---|
| 100 | where each usage of the option can return multiple results. For example:
|
---|
| 101 |
|
---|
| 102 | node mytool.js --foo a,b --foo c
|
---|
| 103 |
|
---|
| 104 | We could define an option type for `--foo` such that
|
---|
| 105 | `opts.foo = ['a', 'b', 'c']`. See
|
---|
| 106 | "[examples/custom-option-arrayOfCommaSepString.js](examples/custom-option-arrayOfCommaSepString.js)"
|
---|
| 107 | for an example.
|
---|
| 108 |
|
---|
| 109 |
|
---|
| 110 | ## 1.10.1
|
---|
| 111 |
|
---|
| 112 | - Trim the published package to the minimal bits. Before: 24K tarball, 144K unpacked.
|
---|
| 113 | After: 12K tarball, 48K unpacked. `npm` won't let me drop the README.md. :)
|
---|
| 114 |
|
---|
| 115 |
|
---|
| 116 | ## 1.10.0
|
---|
| 117 |
|
---|
| 118 | - [issue #9] Support `includeDefault` in help config (similar to `includeEnv`) to have a
|
---|
| 119 | note of an option's default value, if any, in help output.
|
---|
| 120 | - [issue #11] Fix option group breakage introduced in v1.9.0.
|
---|
| 121 |
|
---|
| 122 |
|
---|
| 123 | ## 1.9.0
|
---|
| 124 |
|
---|
| 125 | - [issue #10] Custom option types added with `addOptionType` can specify a
|
---|
| 126 | "default" value. See "examples/custom-option-fruit.js".
|
---|
| 127 |
|
---|
| 128 |
|
---|
| 129 | ## 1.8.0
|
---|
| 130 |
|
---|
| 131 | - Support `hidden: true` in an option spec to have help output exclude this
|
---|
| 132 | option.
|
---|
| 133 |
|
---|
| 134 |
|
---|
| 135 | ## 1.7.3
|
---|
| 136 |
|
---|
| 137 | - [issue #8] Fix parsing of a short option group when one of the
|
---|
| 138 | option takes an argument. For example, consider `tail` with
|
---|
| 139 | a `-f` boolean option and a `-n` option that takes a number
|
---|
| 140 | argument. This should parse:
|
---|
| 141 |
|
---|
| 142 | tail -fn5
|
---|
| 143 |
|
---|
| 144 | Before this change, that would not parse correctly.
|
---|
| 145 | It is suspected that this was introduced in version 1.4.0
|
---|
| 146 | (with commit 656fa8bc71c372ebddad0a7026bd71611e2ec99a).
|
---|
| 147 |
|
---|
| 148 |
|
---|
| 149 | ## 1.7.2
|
---|
| 150 |
|
---|
| 151 | - Known issues: #8
|
---|
| 152 |
|
---|
| 153 | - Exclude 'tools/' dir in packages published to npm.
|
---|
| 154 |
|
---|
| 155 |
|
---|
| 156 | ## 1.7.1
|
---|
| 157 |
|
---|
| 158 | - Known issues: #8
|
---|
| 159 |
|
---|
| 160 | - Support an option group *empty string* value:
|
---|
| 161 |
|
---|
| 162 | ...
|
---|
| 163 | { group: '' },
|
---|
| 164 | ...
|
---|
| 165 |
|
---|
| 166 | to render as a blank line in option help. This can help separate loosely
|
---|
| 167 | related sets of options without resorting to a title for option groups.
|
---|
| 168 |
|
---|
| 169 |
|
---|
| 170 | ## 1.7.0
|
---|
| 171 |
|
---|
| 172 | - Known issues: #8
|
---|
| 173 |
|
---|
| 174 | - [pull #7] Support for `<parser>.help({helpWrap: false, ...})` option to be able
|
---|
| 175 | to fully control the formatting for option help (by Patrick Mooney) `helpWrap:
|
---|
| 176 | false` can also be set on individual options in the option objects, e.g.:
|
---|
| 177 |
|
---|
| 178 | var options = [
|
---|
| 179 | {
|
---|
| 180 | names: ['foo'],
|
---|
| 181 | type: 'string',
|
---|
| 182 | helpWrap: false,
|
---|
| 183 | help: 'long help with\n newlines' +
|
---|
| 184 | '\n spaces\n and such\nwill render correctly'
|
---|
| 185 | },
|
---|
| 186 | ...
|
---|
| 187 | ];
|
---|
| 188 |
|
---|
| 189 |
|
---|
| 190 | ## 1.6.0
|
---|
| 191 |
|
---|
| 192 | - Known issues: #8
|
---|
| 193 |
|
---|
| 194 | - [pull #6] Support headings between groups of options (by Joshua M. Clulow)
|
---|
| 195 | so that this code:
|
---|
| 196 |
|
---|
| 197 | var options = [
|
---|
| 198 | { group: 'Armament Options' },
|
---|
| 199 | { names: [ 'weapon', 'w' ], type: 'string' },
|
---|
| 200 | { group: 'General Options' },
|
---|
| 201 | { names: [ 'help', 'h' ], type: 'bool' }
|
---|
| 202 | ];
|
---|
| 203 | ...
|
---|
| 204 |
|
---|
| 205 | will give you this help output:
|
---|
| 206 |
|
---|
| 207 | ...
|
---|
| 208 | Armament Options:
|
---|
| 209 | -w, --weapon
|
---|
| 210 |
|
---|
| 211 | General Options:
|
---|
| 212 | -h, --help
|
---|
| 213 | ...
|
---|
| 214 |
|
---|
| 215 |
|
---|
| 216 | ## 1.5.0
|
---|
| 217 |
|
---|
| 218 | - Known issues: #8
|
---|
| 219 |
|
---|
| 220 | - Add support for adding custom option types. "examples/custom-option-duration.js"
|
---|
| 221 | shows an example adding a "duration" option type.
|
---|
| 222 |
|
---|
| 223 | $ node custom-option-duration.js -t 1h
|
---|
| 224 | duration: 3600000 ms
|
---|
| 225 | $ node custom-option-duration.js -t 1s
|
---|
| 226 | duration: 1000 ms
|
---|
| 227 | $ node custom-option-duration.js -t 5d
|
---|
| 228 | duration: 432000000 ms
|
---|
| 229 | $ node custom-option-duration.js -t bogus
|
---|
| 230 | custom-option-duration.js: error: arg for "-t" is not a valid duration: "bogus"
|
---|
| 231 |
|
---|
| 232 | A custom option type is added via:
|
---|
| 233 |
|
---|
| 234 | var dashdash = require('dashdash');
|
---|
| 235 | dashdash.addOptionType({
|
---|
| 236 | name: '...',
|
---|
| 237 | takesArg: true,
|
---|
| 238 | helpArg: '...',
|
---|
| 239 | parseArg: function (option, optstr, arg) {
|
---|
| 240 | ...
|
---|
| 241 | }
|
---|
| 242 | });
|
---|
| 243 |
|
---|
| 244 | - [issue #4] Add `date` and `arrayOfDate` option types. They accept these date
|
---|
| 245 | formats: epoch second times (e.g. 1396031701) and ISO 8601 format:
|
---|
| 246 | `YYYY-MM-DD[THH:MM:SS[.sss][Z]]` (e.g. "2014-03-28",
|
---|
| 247 | "2014-03-28T18:35:01.489Z"). See "examples/date.js" for an example usage.
|
---|
| 248 |
|
---|
| 249 | $ node examples/date.js -s 2014-01-01 -e $(date +%s)
|
---|
| 250 | start at 2014-01-01T00:00:00.000Z
|
---|
| 251 | end at 2014-03-29T04:26:18.000Z
|
---|
| 252 |
|
---|
| 253 |
|
---|
| 254 | ## 1.4.0
|
---|
| 255 |
|
---|
| 256 | - Known issues: #8
|
---|
| 257 |
|
---|
| 258 | - [pull #2, pull #3] Add a `allowUnknown: true` option on `createParser` to
|
---|
| 259 | allow unknown options to be passed through as `opts._args` instead of parsing
|
---|
| 260 | throwing an exception (by https://github.com/isaacs).
|
---|
| 261 |
|
---|
| 262 | See 'allowUnknown' in the README for a subtle caveat.
|
---|
| 263 |
|
---|
| 264 |
|
---|
| 265 | ## 1.3.2
|
---|
| 266 |
|
---|
| 267 | - Fix a subtlety where a *bool* option using both `env` and `default` didn't
|
---|
| 268 | work exactly correctly. If `default: false` then all was fine (by luck).
|
---|
| 269 | However, if you had an option like this:
|
---|
| 270 |
|
---|
| 271 | options: [ {
|
---|
| 272 | names: ['verbose', 'v'],
|
---|
| 273 | env: 'FOO_VERBOSE',
|
---|
| 274 | 'default': true, // <--- this
|
---|
| 275 | type: 'bool'
|
---|
| 276 | } ],
|
---|
| 277 |
|
---|
| 278 | wanted `FOO_VERBOSE=0` to make the option false, then you need the fix
|
---|
| 279 | in this version of dashdash.
|
---|
| 280 |
|
---|
| 281 |
|
---|
| 282 | ## 1.3.1
|
---|
| 283 |
|
---|
| 284 | - [issue #1] Fix an envvar not winning over an option 'default'. Previously
|
---|
| 285 | an option with both `default` and `env` would never take a value from the
|
---|
| 286 | environment variable. E.g. `FOO_FILE` would never work here:
|
---|
| 287 |
|
---|
| 288 | options: [ {
|
---|
| 289 | names: ['file', 'f'],
|
---|
| 290 | env: 'FOO_FILE',
|
---|
| 291 | 'default': 'default.file',
|
---|
| 292 | type: 'string'
|
---|
| 293 | } ],
|
---|
| 294 |
|
---|
| 295 |
|
---|
| 296 | ## 1.3.0
|
---|
| 297 |
|
---|
| 298 | - [Backward incompatible change for boolean envvars] Change the
|
---|
| 299 | interpretation of environment variables for boolean options to consider '0'
|
---|
| 300 | to be false. Previous to this *any* value to the envvar was considered
|
---|
| 301 | true -- which was quite misleading. Example:
|
---|
| 302 |
|
---|
| 303 | $ FOO_VERBOSE=0 node examples/foo.js
|
---|
| 304 | # opts: { verbose: [ false ],
|
---|
| 305 | _order: [ { key: 'verbose', value: false, from: 'env' } ],
|
---|
| 306 | _args: [] }
|
---|
| 307 | # args: []
|
---|
| 308 |
|
---|
| 309 |
|
---|
| 310 | ## 1.2.1
|
---|
| 311 |
|
---|
| 312 | - Fix for `parse.help({includeEnv: true, ...})` handling to ensure that an
|
---|
| 313 | option with an `env` **but no `help`** still has the "Environment: ..."
|
---|
| 314 | output. E.g.:
|
---|
| 315 |
|
---|
| 316 | { names: ['foo'], type: 'string', env: 'FOO' }
|
---|
| 317 |
|
---|
| 318 | ...
|
---|
| 319 |
|
---|
| 320 | --foo=ARG Environment: FOO=ARG
|
---|
| 321 |
|
---|
| 322 |
|
---|
| 323 | ## 1.2.0
|
---|
| 324 |
|
---|
| 325 | - Transform the option key on the `opts` object returned from
|
---|
| 326 | `<parser>.parse()` for convenience. Currently this is just
|
---|
| 327 | `s/-/_/g`, e.g. '--dry-run' -> `opts.dry_run`. This allow one to use hyphen
|
---|
| 328 | in option names (common) but not have to do silly things like
|
---|
| 329 | `opt["dry-run"]` to access the parsed results.
|
---|
| 330 |
|
---|
| 331 |
|
---|
| 332 | ## 1.1.0
|
---|
| 333 |
|
---|
| 334 | - Environment variable integration. Envvars can be associated with an option,
|
---|
| 335 | then option processing will fallback to using that envvar if defined and
|
---|
| 336 | if the option isn't specified in argv. See the "Environment variable
|
---|
| 337 | integration" section in the README.
|
---|
| 338 |
|
---|
| 339 | - Change the `<parser>.parse()` signature to take a single object with keys
|
---|
| 340 | for arguments. The old signature is still supported.
|
---|
| 341 |
|
---|
| 342 | - `dashdash.createParser(CONFIG)` alternative to `new dashdash.Parser(CONFIG)`
|
---|
| 343 | a la many node-land APIs.
|
---|
| 344 |
|
---|
| 345 |
|
---|
| 346 | ## 1.0.2
|
---|
| 347 |
|
---|
| 348 | - Add "positiveInteger" and "arrayOfPositiveInteger" option types that only
|
---|
| 349 | accept positive integers.
|
---|
| 350 |
|
---|
| 351 | - Add "integer" and "arrayOfInteger" option types that accepts only integers.
|
---|
| 352 | Note that, for better or worse, these do NOT accept: "0x42" (hex), "1e2"
|
---|
| 353 | (with exponent) or "1.", "3.0" (floats).
|
---|
| 354 |
|
---|
| 355 |
|
---|
| 356 | ## 1.0.1
|
---|
| 357 |
|
---|
| 358 | - Fix not modifying the given option spec objects (which breaks creating
|
---|
| 359 | a Parser with them more than once).
|
---|
| 360 |
|
---|
| 361 |
|
---|
| 362 | ## 1.0.0
|
---|
| 363 |
