Thanks once again to everyone involved in this release!

This release includes some updates to generic deriving which require updating to the latest version of purescript-generics.

Features

  • Field puns, fix #921 (@balajirrao)

    It is now possble to construct objects by using values in scope with the same name as the field labels. For example, the expression { foo, bar } is equivalent to { foo: foo, bar: bar }. Patterns desugar in the same way.

Enhancements

  • Modules are now parsed in parallel (@paf31)
  • Use Types.Proxy.Proxy instead of Data.Generic.Proxy. This fixes #1573 (@tfausak)
  • Update generic deriving for latest purescript-generics changes (@paf31)
  • New import warnings - unused data constructors, unused imports (@nwolverson)
  • psc-publish: only warn on dirty working tree on dry runs (@hdgarrood)
  • Add more information to psci :browse command (@soupi)
  • Add support for --require-path option to psc-bundle (@natefaubion)
  • Improved error reporting in psc-publish (@hdgarrood)
  • Reduce noise in instance declarations in documentation (@hdgarrood)

  • Fix #1632, instantiate type variables in anyProxy calls in generic instances (@paf31)
  • Fix warnings for unqualified implicit imports (@nwolverson)
  • Fix #1596, don't show type checker warnings in the event of an error (@paf31)
  • Fix #1602, improvements around code generation of string literals (@michaelficarra)
  • Fix #1090, allow accessors in operator sections (@paf31)
  • Fix #1590, limit depth of pretty-printed expressions (@paf31)
  • Fix #1591, use the 'negate' in scope (@paf31)
  • Fix #1335, track scoped type variables when skolemizing (@paf31)
  • Fix #1175, check types inside where clauses inside instances (@paf31)
  • Some refactoring (@phadej)
