towncrier 19.9.0 (2021-03-20)

No significant changes.

towncrier 19.9.0rc1 (2019-09-16)

Features

  • Add create subcommand, which can be used to quickly create a news fragment command in the location defined by config. (#4)

  • Add support for subcommands, meaning the functionality of the towncrier executable is now replaced by the build subcommand:

    $ towncrier build --draft

    A new check subcommand is exposed. This is an alternative to calling the towncrier.check module manually:

    $ towncrier check

    Calling towncrier without a subcommand will result in a call to the build subcommand to ensure backwards compatibility. This may be removed in a future release. (#144)

  • Towncrier's templating now allows configuration of the version header. CUSTOM TEMPLATE USERS PLEASE NOTE: You will need to add the version header information to your template! (#147)

  • towncrier now accepts the --config argument to specify a custom configuration file (#157)

  • There is now the option for all_bullets = false in the configuration. Setting all_bullets to false means that news fragments have to include the bullet point if they should be rendered as enumerations, otherwise they are rendered directly (this means fragments can include a header.). It is necessary to set this option to avoid (incorrect) automatic indentation of multiline fragments that do not include bullet points. The single-file-no-bullets.rst template gives an example of using these options. (#158)

  • The single_file option can now be added to the configuration file. When set to true, the filename key can now be formattable with the name, version, and project_date format variables. This allows subsequent versions to be written out to new files instead of appended to an existing one. (#161)

  • You can now specify Towncrier-bundled templates in your configuration file. Available templates are default, hr-between-versions (as used in attrs), and single-file-no-bullets. (#162)

Bugfixes

  • Accept newsfragment filenames with multiple dots, like fix-1.2.3.bugfix. (#142)

Deprecations and Removals

  • The --pyproject option for towncrier check is now replaced with --config, for consistency with other commands. (#162)

towncrier 19.2.0 (2019-02-15)

Features

  • Add support for multiple fragements per issue/type pair. This extends the naming pattern of the fragments to issuenumber.type(.counter) where counter is an optional integer. (#119)
  • Python 2.7 is now supported. (#121)
  • python -m towncrier.check now accepts an option to give the configuration file location. (#123)
  • towncrier.check now reports git output when it encounters a git failure. (#124)

towncrier 18.6.0 (2018-07-05)

Features

  • python -m towncrier.check, which will check a Git branch for the presence of added newsfiles, to be used in a CI system. (#75)
  • wrap is now an optional configuration option (which is False by default) which controls line wrapping of news files. Towncrier will now also not attempt to normalise (wiping newlines) from the input, but will strip leading and ending whitespace. (#80)
  • Towncrier can now be invoked by python -m towncrier. (#115)

Deprecations and Removals

  • Towncrier now supports Python 3.5+ as a script runtime. Python 2.7 will not function. (#80)

towncrier 18.5.0 (2018-05-16)

Features

  • Python 3.3 is no longer supported. (#103)
  • Made package optional. When the version is passed on the command line, and the title_format does not use the package name, and it is not used for the path to the news fragments, then no package name is needed, so we should not enforce it. (#111)

Bugfixes

  • When cleaning up old newsfragments, if a newsfragment is named "123.feature.rst", then remove that file instead of trying to remove the non-existent "123.feature". (#99)
  • If there are two newsfragments with the same name (example: "123.bugfix.rst" and "123.bugfix.rst~"), then raise an error instead of silently picking one at random. (#101)

towncrier 17.8.0 (2017-08-19)

Features

  • Added new option issue_format. For example, this can be used to make issue text in the NEWS file be formatted as ReST links to the issue tracker. (#52)
  • Add --yes option to run non-interactively. (#56)
  • You can now name newsfragments like 123.feature.rst, or 123.feature.txt, or 123.feature.whatever.you.want, and towncrier will ignore the extension. (#62)
  • New option in pyproject.toml: underlines = ["=", "-", "~"] to specify the ReST underline hierarchy in towncrier's generated text. (#63)
  • Instead of sorting sections/types alphabetically (e.g. "bugfix" before "feature" because "b" < "f"), sections/types will now have the same order in the output as they have in your config file. (#70)

Bugfixes

  • When rewrapping text, don't break words or at hyphens -- they might be inside a URL (#68)

Deprecations and Removals

  • towncrier.ini config file support has been removed in preference to pyproject.toml configuration. (#71)

  • towncrier will now add the version logs after .. towncrier release notes start, if it is in the file, allowing you to preserve text at the top of the file. (#15)

Improved Documentation

  • The README now mentions how to manually provide the version number, for non-Py3 compatible projects. (#19)
