New features:

  • Argbash in the container has no longer the terminal output limitation caused by the crlf line ending (#129). Thanks to Felipe Santos (@felipecrs)!.

2.8.1

2.8.1

Choose a tag to compare

This release fixes many issues, and it also doesn't enable the readlink -e functionality introduced in 2.8.0. So there is a slight breakage of backwards compatibility for those who use the standalone mode and who use symlinks.

Incompatible changes (minor):

  • The DEFINE_SCRIPT_DIR macro doesn't resolve symlinks as it started to do so in 2.8.0, use DEFINE_SCRIPT_DIR_GNU if you need the functionality.

New features (minor):

  • The help message now contains reference for one-of argument types (#76).

Bugfixes:

  • The environment variables help message has been fixed (#79).
  • The manpage generation works when long description is supplied (#78).
  • The DEFINE_SCRIPT_DIR macro doesn't use readlink -e any more (#74).
  • Completion generation works even when there are no options followed by value (#77).

  • Allow scripts generated by argbash-init with complete separation (-s -s) to be run from a symbolic link.
  • Implemented output to generate manpages using the rst2man utility (fixes #37).
  • Introduced the ARG_VERSION_AUTO macro.

This is a minor feature / bugfix release. The bash completion has seen some love, and the docopt output regression has been fixed.

New features:

  • The bash completion now supports arguments of one-of-restricted values.

Bugfixes:

  • Tests pass when there is no dash shell installed.
  • The double-dash handling when -- is the last argument has been improved.
  • The generated bash completion is now complementing (i.e. not shadowing) the default bash completion.

2.7.0 (2018-07-19)

This version of Argbash brings the long-awaited POSIX shell output mode.

New features:

  • ARGBASH_WRAP works recursively - you can wrap wrapped scripts.
  • Introduced new output - the strict POSIX shell output.

Bugfixes:

  • Fixed comment of the evaluate_strictness function in commented mode.
  • ARG_OPTIONAL_BOOL won't let you specify other default values than on or off.

  • Fixed Argbash bash completion generated filename.
