CanonicalPath v0.3.0.0
A summary of the third major release of CanonicalPath library, highlighting API changes, performance improvements, and enhanced testing infrastructure while maintaining compatibility with major Haskell package repositories.
Recently there was the third major release of CanonicalPath
library introducing some good stuff, but unfortunately breaking API (just a tiny little bit).
The new version is available on Github, Hackage and Stackage.
- Remove
UnsafePath
data type. It was a synonym toFilePath
and was confusing me sometimes, so I decided to cut it off. - Rename
cpathToText
totoText'
. - Remove
pathToText
andtextToPath
. - Export
toText
andfromText
fromFilesystem.Path.CurrentOS
. - Export
fromPrelude
andtoPrelude
functions. - Improve performance (path canonicalization now is performed 1.6x faster than before). Now that I have tests and criterion, I can measure performance.
- Improve
canonicalPath
error messages. Most important - now it respects errors fromSystem.Directory.canonicalizePath
. - Add tests.
- Add Travis support.
- Update documentation.
As always - suggestions and pull requests are welcome!
