Revision history for package-version

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to the Haskell Package Versioning Policy.

0.4.1 -- 2025-07-17

Changed

• Doctests use cabal external command, hence no longer part of test suite. Therefore --enable-tests will no longer incur a GHC dependency.

0.4 -- 2024-08-13

Removed

• Pretty instances removed as these were not very useful.
• Read instance removed as it was of dubious utility (fromText is better).

Changed

• Internal representation now uses NonEmpty Word instead of [Int].
• Because the representation now preserves the desired invariants (non-empty and non-negative), the type is now fully exposed from the non-internal module. In particular, the original data constructor UnsafePackageVersion is replaced with MkPackageVersion.

Added

• Updated bounds on base, bytestring, and template-haskell.
• Added HasCallStack to unsafePackageVersion.

0.3 -- 2022-10-21

Changed

• Minimum length is now 1, not 2. This is due to cabal allowing package versions with a single digit.
• Accordingly, mempty is now [0], not [0,0].
• The ValidationErrorTooShort data constructor renamed to ValidationErrorEmpty.
• Field unPackageVersion removed as it allows unsafe construction via record update syntax. This is now an ordinary function.

Added

• GHC 9.4 support.

0.2 -- 2022-07-25

Changed

• Renamed error data constructors to improve consistency.
• Modified errors' Exception instances to use pretty over default show.

Added

• Added Generic instance to PackageVersion.

Fixed

• Used bytestring for reading file over bespoke function.

0.1.0.0 -- 2021-12-19

• First version. Released on an unsuspecting world.
