Overview
This release contains several new feature and breaking changes. From a user perspective, the most notable change is the
addition of a JSON highlighter. From a developer's perspective, the highlighting engine powering tailspin has been
decoupled and extracted into a separate library called manifold.
manifold will still be used internally by tailspin, but it will also be available as a standalone library for other
projects to use.
New features:
- Added support for handling lines which are valid
JSON.tailspinwill recognize if the line is a valid JSON object
and highlight it accordingly. - Added date and time highlighter for formats like
DD/MM/YYYY
Breaking changes:
- Removed the
borderfrom the style from the keyword styling. Instead, the border will be enabled implicitly by
setting a background color for the keyword. - Removed date highlighting for formats like
Aug 14andSun Dec 14etc. (Can be re-enabled by adding a custom
regex highlighter) - One highlighting group for both date and time
