Version 3.0

Time for a new major version of inja! 🎉

⚡️ Improvements

• A new core parser and renderer based on an abstract syntax tree (fixing #149), allowing for:
  • Complex expressions of functions, logic expressions and statements.
  • Mathematical functions in templates.
  • Variadic callbacks with unknown number of arguments.
• Show parsing and render error positions in template (#134, thanks to @sabelka).
• Performance improvements, in particular for large json data (#146, thanks to @craigpepper) and large template files.
• Update nlohmann/json to version 3.8.0 (#144, also thanks to @craigpepper).
• Support for GCC 4.8 (#150, thanks to @rafadesu)

🔨 Further Changes

• Move all CI to GitHub Actions.
• Switching from Catch to Doctest as our testing framework with much better build times.

🔥 Breaking Changes

• We've removed the json pointer style for variables in templates.
• We now require nlohmann/json with a minimum version of 3.8.0.

Version 2.2

We've got a round of fixes and cool improvements for this release.

⚡️ Improvements

• Add whitespace control (#116, thanks to @jpcima).
• Added new functions: select element at position, string length.
• Throw exception if file cannot be opened (#117, thanks to @thomastrapp).
• Bump to newer nlohmann/json (#107, thanks to @JehandadKhan).

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed scope when including templates (#118, thanks to @thomastrapp).
• Fixed Visual Studio compiler warnings (#119, thanks to @Dodzey).

🔨 Further Changes

• Much improved CI (#124), in particular for Visual Studio (#125, #128, thanks to @kzeslaf).
• Move doxygen generation to GitHub CI.

Version 2.1

✨ Further Improvements

There are a couple of great improvements for inja in this release:

• We've added a first API documentation.
• Thanks to @gracicot and @mhhollomon, we improved cmake and meson target exports (#83, #86).
• I've added a string_view polyfill for C++11 to C++14.
• You can now use cget for installing inja (#88). Thanks @pfultz2!
• Warnings in appveyor has been cleaned.

🔥 And a small breaking change in the development pipeline: The CMake option for disabling tests has been renamed from BUILD_TEST to BUILD_TESTING.

Version 2.0.1

This release fixes a memory bug when including templates (#78, #68). Additionally, you can now use render_to without creating an environment and render to general ostreams (#76).

Version 2.0

Finally, this is the next major version of Inja. After reworking most of its internals, Inja is now up to two orders of magnitude faster than v1! (#67)

✨Further Improvements

• We've added type checks as builtin functions (#64).
• Loop variables are now supported in inja templates (#52).
• Include in-memory templates (#47).
• Inja is now easier to integrate either with the vcpkg (#45) or conan (#43) package manager.

🔥 Breaking Changes

Inja now requires string_view from C++17.

Version 1.0

This is the first stable release of inja! 🎉

Major improvements over the last released version are:

• Added callbacks (#5, #15)
• New functions: min, max, sort, first, last, conversion to string and number (#22)
• Added loops over std::map / json objects
• Fixed lots of errors and warnings (#18)
• Better error messages
• More tests and compilers with CI, additional testing with meson
• Updated dependencies to JSON 3.1 and Catch 2.1
