v0.1.9 (2024-12-15)

Release Notes

Highlights

v0.1.9 brings some next-level enhancements for doing more with your scripts with less effort, such as running scripts straight from URLs,
and helping you develop or get started with proc macros. And as ever, although it can't speed up Cargo builds, thag always aims to achieve
near-ludicrous speed in its own operations.

• Proc macro development support including macro expansion for debugging:

  • The starter kit now includes a new local crate demo/proc_macros with a lib.rs and demo proc macros in their own modules that you
    can adapt or add to.
  • lib.rs features a function intercept_and_debug that allows you to display the expansion of your proc macro/s in your build
    output. You can currently switch expansion on or off for a given proc macro by a hard-coded boolean in demo/proc_macros/lib.rs,
    or by enabling the macro-debug feature in demo/proc_macros/Cargo.toml, or by including an expand_macro attribute in the
    caller's proc macro invocation, or by a combination of feature and attribute.
  • the new expand (-X) command-line option shows the full expansion of the script, including all macros, side by side with
    the source script.

• Enhanced dependency inference means you often don't need a toml block at all.

  • infer dependencies from more code points including command invocations, function signatures etc.
  • configure feature inclusion and exclusion at global and individual crate level.
  • configurable options max, min, config (recomm/default), none.
  • support added for detailed dependency format: selects simple or detailed format for each dependency as appropriate.
  • --verbose option shows results of dependency inference that can be pasted as a new toml block or into an existing one, as the case may be.

• New command-line options:
  --cargo (-A) runs any valid cargo subcommand against the generated script, e.g. test, clippy, tree, doc etc.
  --infer (-i) overrides configured or system default dependency inference level
  --expand (-X) shows script source and expanded source side by side. Requires you to have installed crate cargo-expand.

• Enhancements to generated demo/README.md:

  • Demo script classification by category
  • New Run this example: code block for most scripts that you can copy and paste to the command line to run the script directly from its
    GitHub URL (not provided for a few scripts that use termbg or need to run in terminal mode.)
    Requires you to have compiled demo/thag_url.rs to a command, which is done by thag demo/thag_url.rs -x.

• thag now helps you debug malformed scripts that can't be parsed into an AST, by seamlessly calling rustfmt to display the errors.

• "Demo" starter kit now includes handy new tools that you're encouraged to compile to commands with --executable (-x):

  • Front-end helper scripts
  • thag_cargo (demo/thag_cargo.rs) - uses inquire crate to allow user to pick a demo script and a Cargo command to run against it.
  • thag_clippy (demo/thag_clippy.rs) - uses inquire crate to allow user to pick a demo script and one or more Clippy lint groups
    to run against it, e.g. correctness or pedantic.
  • thag_url (demo/thag_url.rs) - runs scripts from URLs. Converts source code URLs from GitHub, Rust playground, Gitlab and BitBucket where
    necessary, downloads the source, checks validity and passes it to thag with --stdin (default) or --edit options to run.
    thag dependency inference helps ensure that many such scripts will compile and run without the need to manually specify manifest info.
  • Config file builder "config_builder" (demo/config_builder.rs) - uses inquire crate with the current active thag_rs structs and enums
    to guide the user through the process of building a config.toml file that precisely matches their needs.
  • Fast report generator "filter_demos" (demo/filter_demos.rs) - helps you quickly find demos of interest. It uses the inquire crate to
    allow the user to select script categories and/or crates of interest, with a choice of And/Or/All logic. It displays them either as HTML
    via HTTP, or as markdown to a pager (less) or to a .md file with sensible default naming.

• Now over 230 demo scripts including 22 in demo/proc_macros.

• Enhanced help screen

v0.1.4

Release Notes

Upgrade manifest processing to allow arbitrary valid Cargo.toml such as profiles to be specified in toml block.
(Catch up with inadventent over-promise in Readme.)
Add config.toml template and add edit config.toml option --config (-C) to CLI, renaming --cargo (-C) to --toml (-T).
Add --unquote (-u) true/false option to CLI and add user default setting to config.toml. true will strip quotes from string
values returned implicitly by a snippet, false (default) will retain them. = sign is optional, e.g. -u=true and -u true are interchangeable. --unquote or -u specified without a value equates to -u true.
E.g. run thag -- -e '"Hello world!"' -u vs thag -- -e '"Hello world!"' -u false to see the difference.
Group related args in --help display.
Rationalise and streamline error handling and eliminate undue expects, unwraps and panics.
Run well-formed program scripts from original source for efficiency.
Reduce cloning and make other optimisations and code improvements.
Build out profiling instrumentation.
Documentation corrections and enhancements.
Demo script corrections and additions.
Bump dependencies via Dependabot.
