Brick changelog --------------- 0.2.2 ----- Demo changes: * Improved the list demo by using characters instead of integers in the demo list and cleaned up item-adding code (thanks Jøhannes Lippmann ) 0.2.1 ----- Bug fixes: * List: * Fixed size policy of lists so that rather than being Fixed/Fixed, they are Greedy/Greedy. This resolves issues that arise when the box layout widget renders a list widget alongside a Fixed/Fixed one. (Closes issue #17, thanks Karl Voelker) * Scrolling: * vScrollPage actually scrolls vertically now rather than horizontally (Thanks Hans-Peter Deifel ) 0.2 --- API changes: * Added top-level `Brick` module that re-exports the most important modules in the library. * List: * Now instead of passing the item-drawing function to the `list` state constructor, it is passed to `renderList` * `renderList` now takes the row height of the list's item widgets. The list item-drawing function must respect this in order for scrolling to work properly. This change made it possible to optimize the list so that it only draws widgets visible in the viewport rather than rendering all of the list's items (even the ones off-screen). But to do this we must be able to tell in advance how high each one is, so we require this parameter. In addition this change means that lists no longer support items of different heights. * The list now uses Data.Vector instead of [a] to store items; this permits efficient slicing so we can do the optimized rendering described above. * The `HandleEvent` type class `handleEvent` method now runs in `EventM`. This permits event-handling code implemented in terms of `HandleEvent` to do get access to viewport state and to run IO code, making it just as powerful as code in the top-level `EventM` handler. * Many types were moved from `Brick.Widgets.Core` and `Brick.Main` to `Brick.Types`, making the former module merely a home for `Widget` constructors and combinators. * The `IsString` instance for `Widget` was removed; this might be reinstated later, but this package provides enough `IsString` instances that things can get confusing. * `EventM` is now reader monad over the most recent rendering pass's viewport state, in addition to being a state monad over viewport requests for the renderer. Added the `lookupViewport` function to provide access to the most recent viewport state. Exported the `Viewport` type and lenses. * Now that `handleEvent` is now an `EventM` action, composition with `continue` et al got a little messier when using lenses to update the application state. To help with this, there is now `handleEventLensed`. Bugfixes: * Lists now perform well with 10 items or a million (see above; fixes #7, thanks Simon Michael) * Added more haddock notes to `Brick.Widgets.Core` about growth policies. * Forced evaluation of render states to address a space leak in the renderer (fixes #14, thanks Sebastian Reuße ) * str: only reference string content that can be shown (eliminates a space leak, fixes #14, thanks Sebastian Reuße ) Misc: * Added a makefile for the user guide. * List: added support for Home and End keys (thanks Simon Michael) * Viewports: when rendering viewports, scroll requests from `EventM` are processed before visibility requests from the rendering process; this reverses this previous order of operations but permits user-supplied event handlers to reset viewports when desired. Package changes: * Added `deepseq` dependency 0.1 --- Initial release
