0.5.3

Fixed

• Fixed lune --generate-selene-types generating an invalid Selene definitions file
• Fixed type definition parsing & generation issues on Windows

0.5.2

Fixed

• Fixed crash when using stdio.color() or stdio.style() in a CI environment or non-interactive terminal

0.5.1

Added

• Added net.encode and net.decode which are equivalent to net.jsonEncode and net.jsonDecode, but with support for more formats.

  WARNING: Unstable API

  This API is unstable and may change or be removed in the next major version of Lune. The purpose of making a new release with these functions is to gather feedback from the community, and potentially replace the JSON-specific encoding and decoding utilities.

  Example usage:

  local toml = net.decode("toml", [[
  [package]
  name = "my-cool-toml-package"
  version = "0.1.0"
  
  [values]
  epic = true
  ]])
  
  assert(toml.package.name == "my-cool-toml-package")
  assert(toml.package.version == "0.1.0")
  assert(toml.values.epic == true)

Fixed

• Fixed indentation of closing curly bracket when printing tables

0.5.0

Added

• Added auto-generated API reference pages and documentation using GitHub wiki pages

• Added support for query in net.request parameters, which enables usage of query parameters in URLs without having to manually URL encode values.

• Added a new function fs.move to move / rename a file or directory from one path to another.

• Implemented a new task scheduler which resolves several long-standing issues:

  • Issues with yielding across the C-call/metamethod boundary no longer occur when calling certain async APIs that Lune provides.
  • Ordering of interleaved calls to task.spawn/task.defer is now completely deterministic, deferring is now guaranteed to run last even in these cases.
  • The minimum wait time possible when using task.wait and minimum delay time using task.delay are now much smaller, and only limited by the underlying OS implementation. For most systems this means task.wait and task.delay are now accurate down to about 5 milliseconds or less.

Changed

• Type definitions are now bundled as part of the Lune executable, meaning they no longer need to be downloaded.
  • lune --generate-selene-types will generate the Selene type definitions file, replacing lune --download-selene-types
  • lune --generate-luau-types will generate the Luau type definitions file, replacing lune --download-luau-types
• Improved accuracy of Selene type definitions, strongly typed arrays are now used where possible
• Improved error handling and messages for net.serve
• Improved error handling and messages for stdio.prompt
• File path representations on Windows now use legacy paths instead of UNC paths wherever possible, preventing some confusing cases where file paths don't work as expected

Fixed

• Fixed process.cwd not having the correct ending path separator on Windows
• Fixed remaining edge cases where the task and coroutine libraries weren't interoperable
• Fixed task.delay keeping the script running even if it was cancelled using task.cancel
• Fixed stdio.prompt blocking all other lua threads while prompting for input

0.4.0

Added

• Web Sockets

  net now supports web sockets for both clients and servers!
  
  Note that the web socket object is identical on both client and server, but how you retrieve a web socket object is different.

  Server API

  The server web socket API is an extension of the existing net.serve function.
  
  This allows for serving both normal HTTP requests and web socket requests on the same port.

  Example usage:

  net.serve(8080, {
      handleRequest = function(request)
          return "Hello, world!"
      end,
      handleWebSocket = function(socket)
          task.delay(10, function()
              socket.send("Timed out!")
              socket.close()
          end)
          -- The message will be nil when the socket has closed
          repeat
              local messageFromClient = socket.next()
              if messageFromClient == "Ping" then
                  socket.send("Pong")
              end
          until messageFromClient == nil
      end,
  })

  Client API

  Example usage:

  local socket = net.socket("ws://localhost:8080")
  
  socket.send("Ping")
  
  task.delay(5, function()
      socket.close()
  end)
  
  -- The message will be nil when the socket has closed
  repeat
      local messageFromServer = socket.next()
      if messageFromServer == "Ping" then
          socket.send("Pong")
      end
  until messageFromServer == nil

Changed

• net.serve now returns a NetServeHandle which can be used to stop serving requests safely.

  Example usage:

  local handle = net.serve(8080, function()
      return "Hello, world!"
  end)
  
  print("Shutting down after 1 second...")
  task.wait(1)
  handle.stop()
  print("Shut down succesfully")

• The third and optional argument of process.spawn is now a global type ProcessSpawnOptions.

• Setting cwd in the options for process.spawn to a path starting with a tilde (~) will now use a path relative to the platform-specific home / user directory.

• NetRequest query parameters value has been changed to be a table of key-value pairs similar to process.env.
  If any query parameter is specified more than once in the request url, the value chosen will be the last one that was specified.

• The internal http client for net.request now reuses headers and connections for more efficient requests.

• Refactored the Lune rust crate to be much more user-friendly and documented all of the public functions.

Fixed

• Fixed process.spawn blocking all lua threads if the spawned child process yields.

0.3.0

Added

• Added a new global stdio which replaces console

• Added stdio.write which writes a string directly to stdout, without any newlines

• Added stdio.ewrite which writes a string directly to stderr, without any newlines

• Added stdio.prompt which will prompt the user for different kinds of input

  Example usage:

  local text = stdio.prompt()
  
  local text2 = stdio.prompt("text", "Please write some text")
  
  local didConfirm = stdio.prompt("confirm", "Please confirm this action")
  
  local optionIndex = stdio.prompt("select", "Please select an option", { "one", "two", "three" })
  
  local optionIndices = stdio.prompt(
      "multiselect",
      "Please select one or more options",
      { "one", "two", "three", "four", "five" }
  )

Changed

• Migrated console.setColor/resetColor and console.setStyle/resetStyle to stdio.color and stdio.style to allow for more flexibility in custom printing using ANSI color codes. Check the documentation for new usage and behavior.
• Migrated the pretty-printing and formatting behavior of console.log/info/warn/error to the standard Luau printing functions.

Removed

• Removed printing functions console.log/info/warn/error in favor of regular global functions for printing.

Fixed

• Fixed scripts hanging indefinitely on error

0.2.2

Added

• Added global types for networking & child process APIs
  • net.request gets NetFetchParams and NetFetchResponse for its argument and return value
  • net.serve gets NetRequest and NetResponse for the handler function argument and return value
  • process.spawn gets ProcessSpawnOptions for its third and optional parameter

Changed

• Reorganize repository structure to take advantage of cargo workspaces, improves compile times

0.2.1

Added

• Added support for string interpolation syntax (update to Luau 0.561)

• Added network server functionality using net.serve

  Example usage:

  net.serve(8080, function(request)
      print(`Got a {request.method} request at {request.path}!`)
  
      local data = net.jsonDecode(request.body)
  
      -- For simple text responses with a 200 status
      return "OK"
  
      -- For anything else
      return {
          status = 203,
          headers = { ["Content-Type"] = "application/json" },
          body = net.jsonEncode({
              message = "echo",
              data = data,
          })
      }
  end)

Changed

• Improved type definitions file for Selene, now including constants like process.env + tags such as readonly and mustuse wherever applicable

Fixed

• Fixed type definitions file for Selene not including all API members and parameters
• Fixed process.exit exiting at the first yield instead of exiting instantly as it should

0.2.0

Added

• Added full documentation for all global APIs provided by Lune! This includes over 200 lines of pure documentation about behavior & error cases for all of the current 35 constants & functions. Check the README to find out how to enable documentation in your editor.

• Added a third argument options for process.spawn:

  • cwd - The current working directory for the process
  • env - Extra environment variables to give to the process
  • shell - Whether to run in a shell or not - set to true to run using the default shell, or a string to run using a specific shell
  • stdio - How to treat output and error streams from the child process - set to "inherit" to pass output and error streams to the current process

• Added process.cwd, the path to the current working directory in which the Lune script is running

0.1.3

Added

• Added a --list subcommand to list scripts found in the lune or .lune directory.
