pandoc-plot uses Semantic Versioning

Release 0.7.1.0

• Better multi-threaded logging. Only one thread (the logging thread) performs IO on the log file. This prevents hang-ups when working on large documents.

Release 0.7.0.0

• Added documentation on using pandoc-plot with LaTeX documents as well.
• Added preliminary support for logging to pandoc-plot. You can turn on this feature in the configuration as follows:

logging:
    # Possible verbosity values: debug, error, warning, info, silent
    # debug level shows all messages
    # error level shows all but debug messages, etc.
    verbosity: info
    
    # OPTIONAL: log to file
    # Remove line below to log to stderr
    filepath: log.txt

• Removed dependencies turtle, temporary, deepseq, and data-default-class, resulting in improved build times by ~10%, and makes the executable smaller by 15-20%!

Release 0.6.1.0

• Made the functions availableToolkits and unavailableToolkits public.
• Minor documentation fixes.
• Executables are now built with GHC 8.8.3.

Release 0.6.0.0

New toolkits:

• Added support for the Plotly/R plotting library.
• Added support for Graphviz.

Other changes:

• The determination of which figures to re-render or not has been improved. For example, changing the caption will not trigger a re-render of a figure anymore.

• pandoc-plot will look for executables more thoroughly.

• pandoc-plot toolkits will now show the exact executable that is being used, if possible.

• Added a check when running the filter that the Pandoc version is at least 2.8. This is easier to understand that the default Pandoc warning on API incompatibility.

• Added the ability to write the example configuration to an arbitrary file using pandoc-plot write-example-config.

• Added the possibility to specify the configuration file via metadata. For example, in Markdown:

  ---
  title: My document
  author: John Doe
  plot-configuration: /path/to/file.yml
  ---     
  

or on the command line:

pandoc --filter pandoc-plot -M plot-configuration=/path/to/file.yml ...

• Added the ability to specify configuration file to the pandoc-plot clean and pandoc-plot toolkits commands.

Release 0.5.0.0

• The pandoc-plot executable will now process documents in parallel. This should dramatically speed up processing of large documents with lots of figures. This happens automatically through the function plotTransform.
• Added a benchmarking suite.
• Added defaultConfiguration so that people don't have to install the data-default package to get access to default configuration values.
• Added a check for the matplotlib toolkit, preventing users from using matplotlib.pyplot.show in figures. This would halt pandoc-plot.

Release 0.4.0.1

• Fixed an issue where the pandoc-plot executable could not be built outside of its git repository.

Release 0.4.0.0

• Updated documentation.
• Added a --full-version flag to the executable, which includes which version of pandoc/pandoc-types was used, as well as the git revision.
• Added the clean command to the executable. This can be used to clean-up output files produced by pandoc-plot.
• Changed the flag --write-example-config to the command write-example-config.
• Added the top-level function cleanOutputDir to clean output of pandoc-plot. This is only accessible if pandoc-plot is used as a library.
• Added a distinction between failure to render a figure because of a mistake, and failing to render a figure because the toolkit is not installed. pandoc-plot will give better error messages in the latter case.

Release 0.3.0.0

• Added more examples.
• Added MacOS binaries built via Azure pipelines.
• BREAKING CHANGE: Parsing captions based on source file was not working. Captions format can be specified in the configuration file. This unfortunately changes the type signature of a few high-level functions.

Release 0.2.2.0

• Fixed an issue where paths with spaces would not work (issue #2).
• Added Linux binaries built via Azure pipelines.

Release 0.2.1.0

• Improved documentation.

Release 0.2.0.0

• Added support for gnuplot.

• Added more tests for all toolkits.

• Fixed an issue where the package could not be installed because a source file was not included in the cabal file.

Release 0.1.0.0

• Initial release
