Change Log

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. This change log follows the conventions of keepachangelog.com.

0.45.0 - 2023-03-11

Release breaks backward compatibility by adding mandatory Misc column to the reports. See Changed sections for more details.

Changed

Misc column no longer depends on the verbosity level and is always shown. For stdout reports (default format) visibility of the column can be suppresed via custom formatter (e.g. %s %s %s to show only first three columns)
Default --formatter option spans 4 columns (Dependency, License name, License type, Misc) and equals to %-35s %-55s %-20s %-40s.
--totals formatting assumes that the first two columns delimited with the same separator; the first separator is used (by default a single space)

Added

Report output format option --report-format to support stdout (default tabular report printed to the standard output), json, json-pretty and csv formats (#90)

0.42.0 - 2023-01-10

0.42.0-SNAPSHOT - 2022-12-30

0.41.0 - 2022-12-26

Release breaks backward compatibility if you use the tool as a library in your Clojure code (see Changed section).

Release deprecates some command-line options in favour of the new ones. Deprecated options will be removed in future releases. Until removed, backward compatibility is supported for the deprecated options when used explicitly (see Deprecated section).

Added

Option --[no-]parallel (default true) to toggle parallel requests to third-party APIs.
Option --[no-]exit (default true) to toggle explicit System/exit call upon program completion. Used to avoid exit when calling main in your Clojure code as opposed to CLI invocation.

Changed

Massive refactoring to change function names and signatures, add new functions, remove unused to better separate report generation and representation (see PR 120).
Dependencies org.clojars.vrs/cocoapods-acknowledgements-licenses and org.clojars.vrs/gradle-licenses moved in to the projects code base. See changes in namespaces pip-license-checker.file and pip-license-checker.external.
Report headers renamed
Clojure version upgraded from 1.10.1 to 1.11.1.
