Changelog for txt2regex

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog.

Unreleased

Added

  • CI: Now also run the tests for Bash version 5.1 307ae9a

Changed

  • CI: Moved from Travis CI to GitHub Actions #9

Fixed

  • Fixed to work properly in Bash 5.2 (thanks Nick Rosbrook) #12

Version 0.9 released in 2020-05-21

Added

  • Added CHICKEN Scheme regexes (thanks Mario Domenech Goulart) dbcd055, f1d80c9
  • New tests for all the command line options (tests/cmdline.md)
  • New tests for txt2regex features (tests/features.md) #5
  • New regex tester that runs the supported programs in a Docker container. Using specially crafted regexes, it verifies how the programs behave in "real life". This avoids manual testing or reading the program documentation to get regex-related information (tests/regex-tester.sh) #6
  • New automatic testing in all Bash versions from 3.0 to 5.0, to make sure txt2regex works in all of them (make test-bash)
  • Now using Travis CI to run all the tests at every push to the GitHub repository
  • New Makefile targets to perform common tasks: check, fmt, install-bin, install-mo, lint, test, test-bash, test-regex, test-regex-build, test-regex-shell
  • Added short options -h (for --help) and -V (for --version) 0a7127a, 1660d83

Removed

  • Removed Lisp regexes (choose Emacs and/or CHICKEN Scheme instead)
  • Removed OpenOffice.org regexes (not supported by the new regex tester)
  • Removed VBScript regexes (not supported by the new regex tester)
  • Removed the old regex tester test-suite/*
  • Removed tools/bashdump-rmdup.sh since msguniq has the same functionality
  • Removed the NEWS file for not adding too much value over the changelog

Changed

  • Bumped minimal required Bash version from 2.04 to 3.0 d0c6254
  • Bumped the versions for all the supported programs #7
  • Validated and updated the regex data for all the supported programs, thanks to the new regex tester. Some programs now support new metacharacters, while others got updates on the escaping rules and POSIX character classes support #7
  • JavaScript regexes: now using Node.js instead of Netscape 61abe24
  • lex regexes: now using GNU flex 3a3fd24
  • PHP regexes: switch from old ereg to preg (PCRE) 8e1f6ea
  • Changed the default programs: +egrep +grep +emacs -perl -php -postgres
  • Remove repeated characters inside a list [] (if the user has typed abbbca, make it [abc]) 4b98e2b
  • Now --showmeta also shows the version for each program d7850d2
  • Now the "!! not supported" legend only appears when there are unsupported metacharacters in the current regex f323926
  • Converted everything (code, docs, translations) to UTF-8

  • Unset $PATH in the top of the script to make sure only Bash builtin commands are used bee846a

  • Fixed the escaping of the \ character when inside a list [] a3f7fef
  • Fixed the handling of the [ character when inside a list []: it is not special at all and should not be handled 7a1b0cb
  • Fixed the handling of the ^ character when inside a list []: only move it to the end when it is in the first position 674d7bb
  • Fixed the handling of the - character when inside a list []: do not move it to the end when it is in the first position, since it is not special there bee220c
