0.14, released 2010-07-25

  • Added CreateLink class and link_file method
  • Made Thor::Actions#run use system as default method for system calls
  • Allow use of private methods from superclass as tasks
  • Added mute(&block) method which allows to run block without any output
  • Removed config[:pretend]
  • Enabled underscores for command line switches
  • Added Thor::Base.basename which is used by both Thor.banner and Thor::Group.banner
  • Deprecated invoke() without arguments
  • Added :only and :except to check_unknown_options

0.13, released 2010-02-03

  • Added :lazy_default which is only triggered if a switch is given
  • Added Thor::Shell::HTML
  • Added subcommands
  • Decoupled Thor::Group and Thor, so it‘s easier to vendor
  • Added check_unknown_options! in case you want error messages to be raised in valid switches
  • run(command) should return the results of command

0.12, released 2010-01-02

  • Methods generated by attr_* are automatically not marked as tasks
  • inject_into_file does not add the same content twice, unless :force is set
  • Removed rr in favor to rspec mock framework
  • Improved output for thor -T
  • [7] Do not force white color on status
  • [8] Yield a block with the filename on directory

0.11, released 2009-07-01

  • Added a rake compatibility layer. It allows you to use spec and rdoc tasks on Thor classes.
  • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: aliases are not generated automatically anymore since it may cause wrong behavior in the invocation system.
  • thor help now show information about any class/task. All those calls are possible:
      thor help describe
      thor help describe:amazing
    

    Or even with default namespaces:

      thor help :spec
    
  • Thor::Runner now invokes the default task if none is supplied:
      thor describe # invokes the default task, usually help
    
  • Thor::Runner now works with mappings:
      thor describe -h
    
  • Added some documentation and code refactoring.

0.9.8, released 2008-10-20

  • Fixed some tiny issues that were introduced lately.

0.9.7, released 2008-10-13

  • Setting global method options on the initialize method works as expected: All other tasks will accept these global options in addition to their own.
  • Added ‘group’ notion to Thor task sets (class Thor); by default all tasks are in the ‘standard’ group. Running ‘thor -T’ will only show the standard tasks - adding —all will show all tasks. You can also filter on a specific group using the —group option: thor -T —group advanced

0.9.6, released 2008-09-13

  • Generic improvements

0.9.5, released 2008-08-27

  • Improve Windows compatibility
  • Update (incorrect) README and task.thor sample file
  • Options hash is now frozen (once returned)
  • Allow magic predicates on options object. For instance: `options.force?`
  • Add support for :numeric type
  • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: Refactor Thor::Options. You cannot access shorthand forms in options hash anymore (for instance, options[:f])
  • Allow specifying optional args with default values: method_options(:user => "mislav")
  • Don‘t write options for nil or false values. This allows, for example, turning color off when running specs.
  • Exit with the status of the spec command to help CI stuff out some.

0.9.4, released 2008-08-13

  • Try to add Windows compatibility.
  • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: options hash is now accessed as a property in your class and is not passed as last argument anymore
  • Allow options at the beginning of the argument list as well as the end.
  • Make options available with symbol keys in addition to string keys.
  • Allow true to be passed to Thor#method_options to denote a boolean option.
  • If loading a thor file fails, don‘t give up, just print a warning and keep going.
  • Make sure that we re-raise errors if they happened further down the pipe than we care about.
  • Only delete the old file on updating when the installation of the new one is a success
  • Make it Ruby 1.8.5 compatible.
  • Don‘t raise an error if a boolean switch is defined multiple times.
  • Thor::Options now doesn‘t parse through things that look like options but aren‘t.
  • Add URI detection to install task, and make sure we don‘t append ".thor" to URIs
  • Add rake2thor to the gem binfiles.
  • Make sure local Thorfiles override system-wide ones.
