Changelog ========= Changes in 2.5.0 ---------------- Fixed: - ``vicious.call`` freezing awesome when used with asynchronous widget types Added: - ``vicious.call_async`` asynchronous analogous to ``vicious.call`` Moved: - Most of the documentation in READMEs to ``docs/`` - ``Changes.md`` to ``CHANGELOG.rst`` - ``CONTRIBUTING.md`` to ``CONTRIBUTING.rst`` - Meta helpers to ``tools/`` Changes in 2.4.2 ---------------- Feature: [hwmontemp] Bring back sysfs path cache Changes in 2.4.1 ---------------- Fixed: - [pkg] Fallback the number of lines before packages listing to 0. This fixes crashes on Arch, FreeBSD and Mandriva. - [mdir] Remove trailing semicolon at the end of command. Changes in 2.4.0 ---------------- .. important:: ``volume`` now uses 🔉 and 🔈 instead of ♫ and ♩ to show mute state. This BREAKS backward compatibility if users substitute custom symbols from these default. Added: - notmuch_all, cpu_freebsd widget types. - [cmus_all] Promote to ``widgets/``. - [wifiiw_linux] Expose BSSID. - [wifi_linux] Expose frequency and transmission power. - ``spawn`` as a fallback for ``awful.spawn`` in case Vicious is used as a stand-alone library. This wrapper, however, does NOT provide the facilities to asynchronously spawn new processes. It also lacks a few features such as parsing ``stderr`` and returning PID. - ``helpers.setasyncall`` to avoid writing redundant workers for asynchronous widget types. Note that these workers are only needed in case Vicious is used as a stand-alone library. - ``helpers.setcall`` for registering functions as widget types. - ``headergen`` script for automatic generation of copyright notices. - ``templates`` for the ease of adding new widget types. - ``CONTRIBUTING.md`` which guide contributors through the steps of filing an issue or submitting a patch. Fixed: - Deprecate the use of ``io.popen`` in following widgets: - wifi_linux, wifiiw_linux, hwmontemp_linux, hddtemp_linux - bat_freebsd, mem_freebsd, net_freebsd, thermal_freebsd, uptime_freebsd, - cpu_freebsd, cpufreq_freebsd, fanspeed_freebsd - bat_openbsd - volume, gmail, mdir, mpd, fs - [mpd] Lua 5.3 compatibility (for real this time); also correct a typo - [mbox] Update the deprecated ``string.gfind`` to ``string.gmatch`` - [pkg,weather,contrib/btc] Allow function call without Awesome - [pkg] Use more updated front-ends for Debian/Ubuntu (apt) and Fedora (dnf) - [os] Splitted os_all into os_linux and os_bsd (and refactored to async) - Tweak ``.luacheckrc`` to suit functional style and soft-limit text width to 80 - Update copyright headers for libraries and widget types Removed: - ``helpers.sysctl`` and ``helpers.sysctl_table`` were removed in favour of ``helpers.sysctl_async``. Changes in 2.3.3 ---------------- Feature: Add battery widget type for OpenBSD Fixes: - [mpd] Lua 5.3 compatibility - [bat_freebsd] Update battery state symbols Changes in 2.3.2 ---------------- Features: - Support stacked graphs - [hwmontemp_linux] Provide name-based access to hwmon sensors via sysfs - [mpd_all] Expose more informations and format time in [hh:]mm:ss Fixes: - Improve defaults and mechanism for data caching - Escape XML entities in results by default - [weather_all] Update NOAA link and use Awesome asynchronous API - [mem_linux] Use MemAvailable to calculate free amount - [mem_freebsd] Correct calculation and switch to swapinfo for swap - [bat_freebsd] Add critical charging state - [fs_all] Fix shell quoting of option arguments Moreover, ``.luacheckrc`` was added and ``README.md`` was refomatted for the ease of development. Changes in 2.3.1 ---------------- Fixes: - widgets can be a function again (regression introduced in 2.3.0) Changes in 2.3.0 ---------------- Features: - add btc widget - add cmus widget - alsa mixer also accept multiple arguments Fixes: - pkg now uses non-blocking asynchronous api Changes in 2.2.0 ---------------- Notable changes: - moved development from git.sysphere.org/vicious to github.com/Mic92/vicious - official freebsd support - escape variables before passing to shell - support for gear timers - fix weather widget url - add :lua:func:`vicious.call` method to obtain data outside of widgets For older versions please see ``git log``.
