Nirum changelog

Version 0.3.3

Released on March 15, 2018.

Et cetera

• The official Docker images became to have CA certificates.

Version 0.3.2

Released on March 15, 2018.

Et cetera

• Fixed a broken build of the official Docker images.

Version 0.3.1

Released on March 1, 2018.

Python target

• Fixed record/union deserializers to ignore unknown fields in data payload. Deserializers had raised KeyError before. #232

Version 0.3.0

Released on February 18, 2018.

Language

• Package is now a new compilation unit of Nirum. Every Nirum package needs package.toml manifest file. [#83, #99]
• Since a Nirum package can be compiled to more than one target languages, the nirum command became to have -t/--target required parameter. [#106, #111, #114]
• Added -w/--watch mode. [#91, #104, #218]
• Annotations became able to have multiple arguments and every parameter became necessary to having its name (keyword). [#178, #190, #197]
• Service methods became able to omit their return types. [#179, #199 by Yang Chun Ung]
• Added @error annotation to make a type to subclass an exception base class (e.g., Exception in Python) when it's compiled to OO languages. [#38, #127]
• Union tag docstrings in parentheses became allowed. [#153, #154]
• Fixed a parser bug that a bare identifier (i.e., unquoted identifier) cannot start with a reserved keyword, e.g., types (type is reserved), enumeration (enum is reserved). [#184, #189]
• Fixed a parser bug that import names had been disallowing to have a trailing comma or newlines. [#202]
• Fixed the nirum command bug that it had always terminated with exit code 0 even when it errored. [#97, #108]

Docs target

• A new target, docs is now available. To generate docs for a Nirum package, specify --target docs option to the nirum command. [#10, #113, #116, #125, #131, #152, #170, #223]

Python target

• Now supports Python 2.7 besides Python 3.4 or later. [#50, #85, #93, #117, nirum-python #22]
• Now requires nirum-python 0.6.0 or later. [#119, #141, #146]
• From now on, in order to compile a Nirum package to Python, package.toml manifest need targets.python section and targets.python.name field. [#99]
• Added targets.python.minimum_runtime option to specify the minimum version of nirum-python runtime library. [#118, #119]
• Added targets.python.renames option to rename module names when they are compiled to a Python module. [#121]
• More package metadata became configurable. [#100]
  • targets.python.description [#174 by Seunghun Lee]
  • targets.python.license [#180 by Seunghun Lee]
  • targets.python.keywords [#183 by Seunghun Lee]
• Added new transport layer. [#149, nirum-python #79, nirum-python #92]
  • Generated constructors of service clients became to take a nirum.transport.Transport instance.
  • Followed renamed/moved import paths of the runtime classes (e.g., nirum.rpc.Service became to nirum.service.Service).
  • The way to avoid name collision between generated types and runtime classes is changed. The runtime library had provided alternative names like service_type for Service and generated imports had been like from nirum.rpc import service_type, but it's now from nirum.service import Service as service_type.
• Record/union tag fields of an optional type can be omitted when the constructor is called. [#70, #165 by Seunghun Lee]
• Generated tag classes became qualified under its union class (e.g., Shape.Rectangle instead of Rectangle). Deprecated the old style and it is going to be obsolete in the near future. [#68, #193]
• Generated service clients became qualified under its service class (e.g., FooService.Client instead of FooService_Client). Deprecated the old style and it is going to be obsolete in the near future. [#167, #222].
• Generated serializers became independent from nirum-python runtime library. [#160, #201, #203, #204]
• Deserializers became to show multiple error messages at a time. [#168, #224]
• Generated Python classes became having __nirum_type__ metadata for RTTI. [nirum-python #34, #192]
• Generated service classes became having __nirum_method_annotations__ metadata for processing annotations. [#194]
• Docstrings in a Nirum schema became to generate corresponding Python docstrings. [#102, #128]
• Sets, lists, and maps became compiled to immutable data structures so that thay are easily hashable. [nirum-python #49, #123]
• Fixed a bug that implicit ancestor packages hadn't been generated even if they have submodules. [#92, #105]
• Fixed a bug that a generated Python code had raised NameError when a referring type is above than a referred type. [#138, nirum-python #88, #146]
• Fixed a bug that a generated Python enum code had became broken when an enum type has a member named mro. [#185, #188]

Et cetera

• The officialy distributed executable binaries for Linux became independent from glibc; instead statically linked to musl. #216
• The Docker image now has nirum command in PATH. [#155]
• The Docker image became based and built on Alpine Linux so that the image is now much lighter.

Version 0.2.0

Still unstable release. Released on September 26, 2016.

Language

• The boxed keyword was renamed to unboxed. [#65, #81]
• Annotations became renewed and complete so that every type and module now can be annotated. [#40, #73]
• Docstrings became merely a syntactic sugar of @docs annotation. [#53, #57]
• Fixed a parser bug which had failed to parse spaces right before/after tag parentheses. [#69, #71]
• Fixed a parser bug which had referred to a wrong line/column position on syntax error message when a trailing semicolon is missing. [#64]

Python target

• Services became to have their own client implementation of a name with _Client postfix when they are compiled to Python. [#52]
• Generated types became to have __hash__() method so that they are now hashable. [#75, #76]
• Fixed a bug that a Python class generated from a parameterless tag had been broken. [#55, #66]

Et cetera

• Introduced the official Docker image. The image repository is located to spoqa/nirum. [#48 by Minyoung Jeong]
