Package API

Unlike our CLI tool, Task's package API is not currently stable. In an effort to ease the pain of breaking changes for our users, we will be providing changelogs for our package API going forwards. The hope is that these changes will provide a better long-term experience for our users and allow to stabilize the API in the future. #121 now tracks this piece of work.

• Bumped the minimum required Go version to 1.23 (#2059 by @pd93).
• task.InitTaskfile (#2011, ff8c913 by @HeCorr and @pd93)
  • No longer accepts an io.Writer (output is now the caller's responsibility).
  • The path argument can now be a filename OR a directory.
  • The function now returns the full path of the generated file.
• TaskfileDecodeError.WithFileInfo now accepts a string instead of the arguments required to generate a snippet (#2068 by @pd93).
  • The caller is now expected to create the snippet themselves (see below).
• TaskfileSnippet and related code moved from the errors package to the taskfile package (#2068 by @pd93).
• Renamed TaskMissingRequiredVars to TaskMissingRequiredVarsError (#2052 by @vmaerten).
• Renamed TaskNotAllowedVars to TaskNotAllowedVarsError (#2052 by @vmaerten).
• The taskfile.Reader is now constructed using the functional options pattern (#2082 by @pd93).
• Removed our internal logger.Logger from the entire taskfile package (#2082 by @pd93).
  • Users are now expected to pass a custom debug/prompt functions into taskfile.Reader if they want this functionality by using the new WithDebugFunc and WithPromptFunc functional options.
• Remove Range functions in the taskfile/ast package in favour of new iterator functions (#1798 by @pd93).
• ast.Call was moved from the taskfile/ast package to the main task package (#2084 by @pd93).
• ast.Tasks.FindMatchingTasks was moved from the taskfile/ast package to the task.Executor.FindMatchingTasks in the main task package (#2084 by @pd93).
• The Compiler and its GetVariables and FastGetVariables methods were moved from the internal/compiler package to the main task package (#2084 by @pd93).
