# Changelog ## Unreleased - Do not error if a specified dotenv file does not exist ([#378](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/378), [#385](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/385)). - Fix panic when you have empty tasks in your Taskfile ([#338](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/338), [#362](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/362)). ## v3.0.0 - On `v3`, all CLI variables will be considered global variables ([#336](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/336), [#341](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/341)) - Add support to `.env` like files ([#324](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/324), [#356](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/356)). - Add `label:` to task so you can override the task name in the logs ([#321](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/321]), [#337](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/337)). - Refactor how variables work on version 3 ([#311](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/311)). - Disallow `expansions` on v3 since it has no effect. - `Taskvars.yml` is not automatically included anymore. - `Taskfile_{{OS}}.yml` is not automatically included anymore. - Allow interpolation on `includes`, so you can manually include a Taskfile based on operation system, for example. - Expose `.TASK` variable in templates with the task name ([#252](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/252)). - Implement short task syntax ([#194](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/194), [#240](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/240)). - Added option to make included Taskfile run commands on its own directory ([#260](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/260), [#144](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/144)) - Taskfiles in version 1 are not supported anymore ([#237](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/237)). - Added global `method:` option. With this option, you can set a default method to all tasks in a Taskfile ([#246](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/246)). - Changed default method from `timestamp` to `checksum` ([#246](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/246)). - New magic variables are now available when using `status:`: `.TIMESTAMP` which contains the greatest modification date from the files listed in `sources:`, and `.CHECKSUM`, which contains a checksum of all files listed in `status:`. This is useful for manual checking when using external, or even remote, artifacts when using `status:` ([#216](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/216)). - We're now using [slim-sprig](https://github.com/go-task/slim-sprig) instead of [sprig](https://github.com/Masterminds/sprig), which allowed a file size reduction of about 22% ([#219](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/219)). - We now use some colors on Task output to better distinguish message types - commands are green, errors are red, etc ([#207](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/207)). ## v2.8.1 - 2019-05-20 - Fix error code for the `--help` flag ([#300](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/300), [#330](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/330)). - Print version to stdout instead of stderr ([#299](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/299), [#329](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/329)). - Supress `context` errors when using the `--watch` flag ([#313](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/313), [#317](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/317)). - Support templating on description ([#276](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/276), [#283](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/283)). ## v2.8.0 - 2019-12-07 - Add `--parallel` flag (alias `-p`) to run tasks given by the command line in parallel ([#266](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/266)). - Fixed bug where calling the `task` CLI only informing global vars would not execute the `default` task. - Add hability to silent all tasks by adding `silent: true` a the root of the Taskfile. ## v2.7.1 - 2019-11-10 - Fix error being raised when `exit 0` was called ([#251](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/251)). ## v2.7.0 - 2019-09-22 - Fixed panic bug when assigning a global variable ([#229](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/229), [#243](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/234)). - A task with `method: checksum` will now re-run if generated files are deleted ([#228](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/228), [#238](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/238)). ## v2.6.0 - 2019-07-21 - Fixed some bugs regarding minor version checks on `version:`. - Add `preconditions:` to task ([#205](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/205)). - Create directory informed on `dir:` if it doesn't exist ([#209](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/209), [#211](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/211)). - We now have a `--taskfile` flag (alias `-t`), which can be used to run another Taskfile (other than the default `Taskfile.yml`) ([#221](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/221)). - It's now possible to install Task using Homebrew on Linux ([go-task/homebrew-tap#1](https://github.com/go-task/homebrew-tap/pull/1)). ## v2.5.2 - 2019-05-11 - Reverted YAML upgrade due issues with CRLF on Windows ([#201](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/201), [go-yaml/yaml#450](https://github.com/go-yaml/yaml/issues/450)). - Allow setting global variables through the CLI ([#192](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/192)). ## 2.5.1 - 2019-04-27 - Fixed some issues with interactive command line tools, where sometimes the output were not being shown, and similar issues ([#114](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/114), [#190](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/190), [#200](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/200)). - Upgraded [go-yaml/yaml](https://github.com/go-yaml/yaml) from v2 to v3. ## v2.5.0 - 2019-03-16 - We moved from the taskfile.org domain to the new fancy taskfile.dev domain. While stuff is being redirected, we strongly recommend to everyone that use [this install script](https://taskfile.dev/#/installation?id=install-script) to use the new taskfile.dev domain on scripts from now on. - Fixed to the ZSH completion ([#182](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/182)). - Add [`--summary` flag along with `summary:` task attribute](https://taskfile.org/#/usage?id=display-summary-of-task) ([#180](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/180)). ## v2.4.0 - 2019-02-21 - Allow calling a task of the root Taskfile from an included Taskfile by prefixing it with `:` ([#161](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/161), [#172](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/172)), - Add flag to override the `output` option ([#173](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/173)); - Fix bug where Task was persisting the new checksum on the disk when the Dry Mode is enabled ([#166](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/166)); - Fix file timestamp issue when the file name has spaces ([#176](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/176)); - Mitigating path expanding issues on Windows ([#170](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/170)). ## v2.3.0 - 2019-01-02 - On Windows, Task can now be installed using [Scoop](https://scoop.sh/) ([#152](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/152)); - Fixed issue with file/directory globing ([#153](https://github.com/go-task/task/issues/153)); - Added ability to globally set environment variables ( [#138](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/138), [#159](https://github.com/go-task/task/pull/159) ). ## v2.2.1 - 2018-12-09 - This repository now uses Go Modules (#143). We'll still keep the `vendor` directory in sync for some time, though; - Fixing a bug when the Taskfile has no tasks but includes another Taskfile (#150); - Fix a bug when calling another task or a dependency in an included Taskfile (#151). ## v2.2.0 - 2018-10-25 - Added support for [including other Taskfiles](https://taskfile.org/#/usage?id=including-other-taskfiles) (#98) - This should be considered experimental. For now, only including local files is supported, but support for including remote Taskfiles is being discussed.
