Minimum Go version: 1.19
Viper now requires Go 1.19
This change ensures we can stay up to date with modern practices and dependencies.
log/slog support [BREAKING]
Viper v1.11.0 added an experimental Logger interface to allow custom implementations (besides jwalterweatherman).
In addition, it also exposed an experimental WithLogger function allowing to set a custom logger.
This release deprecates that interface in favor of log/slog released in Go 1.21.
Warning
WithLogger accepts an *slog.Logger from now on.
To preserve backwards compatibility with older Go versions, prior to Go 1.21 Viper accepts a *golang.org/x/exp/slog.Logger.
The experimental flag is removed.
New finder implementation [BREAKING]
As of this release, Viper uses a new library to look for files, called locafero.
The new library is better covered by tests and has been built from scratch as a general purpose file finder library.
The implementation is experimental and is hidden behind a finder build tag.
Warning
The io/fs based implementation (that used to be hidden behind a finder build tag) has been removed.
