# Changelog
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](http://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/)
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
## [0.9.1] - 2026-05-21
A patch release covering documentation cleanup left over from the 0.9.0
refactor plus a handful of usability improvements.
### Added
- `.formatter.exs` is now published with the Hex package and declares
`locals_without_parens` for `check/1`, `check/2`, and `old/1`. Downstream
projects can pick these up with `import_deps: [:bond]` in their own
`.formatter.exs`.
- Assertion-failure messages now include an `at: <file>:<line>` line so the
source location is clickable in editors.
### Changed
- `binding/0` captured in assertion-failure info is sorted by name so
failure messages are reproducible across runs.
### Fixed
- README/moduledoc no longer references the removed Bond.def/2 and
Bond.defp/2 macros, eliminating `mix docs` cross-reference warnings.
- The `getting-started` guide installation hint now references the current
version.
- CHANGELOG no longer auto-links the removed `define_function_with_contract/4`
helper.
### Internal
- Removed the vestigial `:context` field from `Bond.Compiler.Assertion`.
- Tightened the `Bond.Compiler.AnnotatedFunction` moduledoc.
## [0.9.0] - 2026-05-21
This release is a large internal refactor with no breaking changes to the
public API. `@pre`, `@post`, and `check/1,2` all behave the same as in 0.8.x.
### Changed
- **Bond no longer overrides `Kernel.def/2` and `Kernel.defp/2`.** Contracts
are now applied via Elixir compiler hooks (`@on_definition`,
`@before_compile`, `@after_compile`). This makes Bond more robust against
changes in Elixir's macro expansion semantics, eliminates a class of
macro-hygiene issues, and plays nicer with other macros that produce
function definitions.
- **Multi-clause functions are now wrapped by a single override clause that
delegates to `super/1`** rather than having contract logic inlined into
each clause. Elixir's normal pattern matching handles dispatch inside the
`super` call.
- **Assertion failures are signalled by a throw / catch** instead of being
raised inline. Each `@pre`/`@post` group compiles to an anonymous function
that throws `{:assertion_failure, info}` on the first failure;
`Bond.Runtime.Eval` catches it and raises the appropriate exception type.
- Functions with contracts now get auto-generated `Preconditions` and
`Postconditions` sections in their documentation even if the user did not
attach a `@doc` themselves. Previously contract documentation was only
emitted when a `@doc` was present.
- Internal modules are reorganised into `Bond.Compiler.*` (compile-time) and
`Bond.Runtime.*` (run-time) namespaces.
### Internal
- New modules: `Bond.Compiler.AnnotatedFunction` (multi-clause function
model), `Bond.Compiler.FunctionDefinition`, `Bond.Compiler.CompileStateFSM`
(rewritten), `Bond.Runtime.Eval`.
- Removed internal modules `Bond.Compiler.AnnotatedFunctionClause` and
`Bond.Compiler.LegacyCompileStateFSM`, along with the
`define_function_with_contract/4` helper they used.
- `Bond.Compiler.Assertion` now carries a stable random `:id` for use in
error reporting and future internal tooling.
### Requirements
- Unchanged. Elixir `~> 1.14`.
