Snowman 0.6.1 ⛄

This is a patch release fixing an issue causing the get_remote function to expect two arguments instead of the intended one. It also improves Windows support and brings a quality of life improvement to view definitions.

Changes 🎈

Bug fixes 🪲

• On Windows, paths to queries in views.yaml do longer need double slashes(\\) Windows build requires views.yaml query paths to have "queries\\*.rq" #100
• get_remote now only expects one parameter as prior to 0.6.0.

Other changes 🍿

• There can now be spaces surrounding references to variables in views.yaml. No whitespace allowed when writing variables in views.yaml #102

Installing Snowman 🌨

Download the binary for your OS/architecture, rename it to "snowman", and place it in a directory on your path. Alternatively, place it in your project folder and execute it with the ./ prefix.

We provide binaries for six architectures/operation systems, if none of these are suitable for you, you can build it from source. If you think we should provide pre-built binaries for additional platforms, consider raising an issue.

Roadmap and Snowman 0.7.0 🗺

Note that there is currently a discussion open regarding a potential breaking change for math template functions and there is a plan to change the interface of the cache CLI command.
