Version 0.25.1 (2024-11-01)

Release Notes

This release contains a few new features for further customizing the installer experience, both as a packager and the end user.

Artifact location installer customization

We now provide two new environment variables making it possible to customize just the base URL for fetching installers. Previously, the only customization for overriding the install URL overrode the full URL, including version-specific paths, which made it difficult to use for users who were proxying or mirroring GitHub paths. These new variables are branded with your app's name. For example:

• {app_name}_INSTALLER_GITHUB_BASE_URL
• {app_name}_INSTALLER_GHE_BASE_URL

These two variables will also be supported by a new version of axoupdater in order to allow overriding the GitHub API URL. Thank you to user @gaborbernat for inspiring this change and writing the axoupdater side!

• impl @mistydemeo feat: allow installer domain to be overridden

You can learn more about this feature in the artifact location installer usage documentation.

Default glibc version override

Ordinarily, dist automatically detects the version of glibc used by your linux-gnu builds and uses this in the installers to detect if the end user's system will be compatible. In certain specific build environments, this autodetection isn't possible, so we've introduced a feature allowing the glibc version to be manually specified in the dist configuration. If provided, this replaces the fallback version that would otherwise be used.

• impl @duckinator Allow overriding minimum supported glibc version.

Version 0.24.0 (2024-10-28)

Release Notes

It's been less than two weeks, and we're already back with a big dist release for you. This release has several major features, beginning with the biggest news that:

dist has a new name

Did the last paragraph give it away? Well, it's true: cargo-dist is now just dist. This reflects our growing support for packaging software built by tools beyond just Cargo. Our support for Cargo isn't going away of course, or becoming any less of a focus.

As a part of this, dist has moved towards a standalone CLI tool that doesn't have to be run as a cargo subcommand. You can now run dist init, dist build and more without needing to prefix it with cargo. We still install the Cargo plugin, though, so you're welcome to keep using cargo dist like always. As a part of being able to run without the Cargo plugin, there's one more big change:

dist runs without Cargo

dist no longer requires Cargo if you're not building Rust projects! This is a major change which should make it much more ergonomic for users of other languages. We do still require Cargo if your workspace contains at least one Rust project; this includes commands such as dist init and dist plan.

• impl @Gankra, @mistydemeo feat: make cargo optional

Unified checksum file

This change is completely unrelated to the new name, but it's a very nice one. We've always shipped individual checksum files for each artifact, but in this release we now also ship a unified checksum file which contains all of your hashes in a single place. It's named $HASH_STYLE.sum, for example sha256.sum, and is designed to be compatible with tools such as shasum and sha256sum.

• impl @fasterthanlime Introduce unified manifest file

Fixes

• impl @mistydemeo fix: print Windows paths correctly
• impl @pnehrer Specify path to Cargo.toml when generating wix for package
