# Changelog
**Note** Styler's only public API is its usage as a formatter plugin. While you're welcome to play with its internals,
they can and will change without that change being reflected in Styler's semantic version.
## main
## 1.2.1
### Fixes
* `|>` don't pipify when the call is itself in a pipe (aka don't touch `a |> b(c |> d() |>e()) |> f()`) (Closes #204, h/t @paulswartz)
## 1.2.0
### Improvements
* `pipes`: pipe-ifies when first arg to a function is a pipe. reach out if this happens in unstylish places in your code (Closes #133)
* `pipes`: unpiping assignments will make the assignment one-line when possible (Closes #181)
* `deprecations`: 1.18 deprecations
* `List.zip` => `Enum.zip`
* `first..last = range` => `first..last//_ = range`
### Fixes
* `pipes`: optimizations are less likely to move comments (Closes #176)
## 1.1.2
### Improvements
* Config Sorting: improve comment handling when only sorting a few nodes (Closes #187)
## 1.1.1
### Improvements
* `unless`: rewrite `unless a |> b |> c` as `unless !(a |> b() |> c())` rather than `unless a |> b() |> c() |> Kernel.!()` (h/t @gregmefford)
## 1.1.0
### Improvements
The big change here is the rewrite/removal of `unless` due to [unless "eventually" being deprecated](https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/pull/13769#issuecomment-2334878315). Thanks to @janpieper and @ypconstante for bringing this up in #190.
* `unless`: rewrite all `unless` to `if` (#190)
* `pipes`: optimize `|> Stream.{each|map}(fun) |> Stream.run()` to `|> Enum.each(fun)`
### Fixes
* `pipes`: optimizations reducing 2 pipes to 1 no longer squeeze all pipes onto one line (#180)
* `if`: fix infinite loop rewriting negated if with empty do body `if x != y, do: (), else: :ok` (#196, h/t @itamm15)
## 1.0.0
Styler's two biggest outstanding bugs have been fixed, both related to compilation breaking during module directive organization. One was references to aliases being moved above where the aliases were declared, and the other was similarly module directives being moved after their uses in module directives.
In both cases, Styler is now smart enough to auto-apply the fixes we recommended in the old Readme.
Other than that, a slew of powerful new features have been added, the neatest one (in the author's opinion anyways) being Alias Lifting.
Thanks to everyone who reported bugs that contributed to all the fixes released in 1.0.0 as well.
### Improvements
#### Alias Lifting
Along the lines of `Credo.Check.Design.AliasUsage`, Styler now "lifts" deeply nested aliases (depth >= 3, ala `A.B.C....`) that are used more than once.
Put plainly, this code:
```elixir
defmodule A do
def lift_me() do
A.B.C.foo()
A.B.C.baz()
end
end
```
will become
```elixir
defmodule A do
@moduledoc false
alias A.B.C
def lift_me do
C.foo()
C.baz()
end
end
```
To exclude modules ending in `.Foo` from being lifted, add `styler: [alias_lifting_exclude: [Foo]]` to your `.formatter.exs`
#### Module Attribute Lifting
A long outstanding breakage of a first pass with Styler was breaking directives that relied on module attributes which Styler moved _after_ their uses. Styler now detects these potential breakages and automatically applies our suggested fix, which is creating a variable before the module. This usually happened when folks were using a library that autogenerated their moduledocs for them.
In code, this module:
```elixir
defmodule MyGreatLibrary do
@library_options [...]
@moduledoc make_pretty_docs(@library_options)
use OptionsMagic, my_opts: @library_options
...
end
```
Will now be styled like so:
```elixir
library_options = [...]
defmodule MyGreatLibrary do
@moduledoc make_pretty_docs(library_options)
use OptionsMagic, my_opts: unquote(library_options)
@library_options library_options
...
end
```
#### Mix Config File Organization
Styler now organizes `Mix.Config.config/2,3` stanzas according to erlang term sorting. This helps manage large configuration files, removing the "where should I put this" burden from developers AND helping find duplicated configuration stanzas.
See the moduledoc for `Styler.Style.Configs` for more.
#### Pipe Optimizations
* `Enum.into(x, [])` => `Enum.to_list(x)`
* `Enum.into(x, [], mapper)` => `Enum.map(x, mapper)`
* `a |> Enum.map(m) |> Enum.join()` to `map_join(a, m)`. we already did this for `join/2`, but missed the case for `join/1`
* `lhs |> Enum.reverse() |> Kernel.++(enum)` => `lhs |> Enum.reverse(enum)`
#### `with` styles
* remove `with` structure with no left arrows in its head to be normal code (#174)
* `with true <- x(), do: y` => `if x(), do: y` (#173)
#### Everything Else
* `if`/`unless`: invert if and unless with `!=` or `!==`, like we do for `!` and `not` #132
* `@derive`: move `@derive` before `defstruct|schema|embedded_schema` declarations (fixes compiler warning!) #134
* strings: rewrite double-quoted strings to use `~s` when there's 4+ escaped double-quotes
(`"\"\"\"\""` -> `~s("""")`) (`Credo.Check.Readability.StringSigils`) #146
* `Map.drop(foo, [single_key])` => `Map.delete(foo, single_key)` #161 (also in pipes)
* `Keyword.drop(foo, [single_key])` => `Keyword.delete(foo, single_key)` #161 (also in pipes)
### Fixes
* don't blow up on `def function_head_with_no_body_nor_parens` (#185, h/t @ypconstante)
* fix `with` arrow replacement + redundant body removal creating invalid statements (#184, h/t @JesseHerrick)
* allow Kernel unary `!` and `not` as valid pipe starts (#183, h/t @nherzing)
* fix `Map.drop(x, [a | b])` registering as a chance to refactor to `Map.delete`
* `alias`: expands aliases when moving an alias after another directive that relied on it (#137)
* module directives: various fixes for unreported obscure crashes
* pipes: fix a comment-shifting scenario when unpiping
* `Timex.now/1` will no longer be rewritten to `DateTime.now!/1` due to Timex accepting a wider domain of "timezones" than the stdlib (#145, h/t @ivymarkwell)
* `with`: skip nodes which (unexpectedly) do not contain a `do` body (#158, h/t @DavidB59)
* `then(&fun/1)`: fix false positives on arithmetic `&1 + x / 1` (#164, h/t @aenglisc)
### Breaking Changes
* drop support for elixir `1.14`
* ModuleDirectives: group callback attributes (`before_compile after_compile after_verify`) with nondirectives (previously, were grouped with `use`, their relative order maintained). to keep the desired behaviour, you can make new `use` macros that wrap these callbacks. Apologies if this makes using Styler untenable for your codebase, but it's probably not a good tool for macro-heavy libraries.
