bazel-coverage-report-renderer v0.12.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-03-16 // about 4 years ago

  • Highlights

    • 🏁 Various improvements to Windows support.

    • 👌 Support for Bazel 2.0.0

    • 👍 Minimum supported Bazel version is now 0.29, but GHC bindist is known to fail on macOS with Bazel 0.29. Please use a more recent version for macOS.

    ➕ Added

    • haskell_repl now has a hie_bios output group See #1263
    • ➕ Added support for hrepl (a standalone binary that runs REPLS for Bazel Haskell targets). See #1210.
    • haskell_cabal_library, haskell_cabal_binary, and stack_snapshot now have a verbose argument, to allow suppressing their output. See #1208.
    • haskell_cabal_library and stack_snapshot now build the Haddock documentation if the parameter haddock is set to True (the default). See #1102 and #1200.
    • ➕ Added support for GHC bindist versions 8.8.3, 8.8.2, and 8.8.1.
    • 🏁 Windows: support for cabal See #1133.
    • rules_haskell now depends on rules_sh, a toolchain for common shell commands. See #1117, #1143, and #1136 for motivation. See #1096 for the issue that triggered this train of thought.

    ✂ Removed

    • hazel has been deleted, please use stack_snapshot instead. See #1158.

    🔄 Changed

    • The haskell_register_toolchains() is no longer defined in haskell/repositories.bzl, load it from haskell/toolchain.bzl instead.
    • cabal wrapper: specify python3 as a requirement, to enhance error messages on macOS and reduce cache invalidations. See #1251, #1097, and #1096.
    • ghc_bindist and haskell_register_ghc_bindists now have a locale argument. Set it to circumvent issues on systems without the default C.UTF-8 locale. See #1249.
    • 👉 macOS: BAZEL_USE_CPP_ONLY_TOOLCHAIN = 1 must be set for Bazel to pick the correct C compiler. See #1159.
    • ⚠ stack_snapshot: warning of stackage dependencies are not shown anymore, as they are irrelevant. See #1146 and #1026.
    • Sorted the content of generated manifest files, hereby avoid some spurious rebuilds (more builds caching). See #1128 and #1126.
    • ⚡️ Windows: possible race condition on stack update is now avoided, by calling stack update only once. See #1199 and #1090.

    🛠 Fixed

    • haskell_cabal_library and haskell_library now set relative RUNPATH entries. See #1267
    • 🛠 Fixed that GHC bindist could contain absolute RUNPATH to rts See #1131.
    • Documentations of rules haskelly_library, haskell_binary, and haskell_test now show the documentation of attributes. See #1122.
