0.25.0 - 2023-03-12

Added

  • Added CFrame.fromEulerAngles to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added validate-config command, which will report any errors in your configuration.
  • Added capabilities command, which will report the feature set of the selene installation. This is useful for consumers like the VS Code extension.

Changed

  • Unknown keys in configuration files are accepted less often now.
  • Updated internal parser, supporting Chinese characters better.

Fixed

  • "Legacy" Roblox enums (such as Enum.RaycastFilterType.Whitelist/Blacklist) are now automatically created and marked as deprecated in generated standard libraries.
  • Fixed a bug where manual_table_clone would incorrectly lint code in loops. (#479)

0.24.0 - 2023-01-10

Added

  • Added new manual_table_clone lint, which will catch manual re-implementations of table.clone in Luau.
  • Added filename field to diagnostic message labels in JSON output, indicating for which file the message was generated (#453)

Changed

  • Improved the error message for using a standard library that can be detected as outdated.
  • Updated internal parser, giving support for string interpolation for Luau and fixing some parsing bugs.

Fixed

  • Fixed "library" being typo'd as "libary" in the error when finding a usage.

0.23.1 - 2022-12-06

Fixed

  • Fixed event warnings not being possible to filter out with roblox_incorrect_roact_usage.

0.23.0 - 2022-12-06

Added

  • Added --display-style=json2, which gives the same outputs as --display-style=json, but with an extra type field so that it can support more than diagnostics. Extensions should move over to --display-style=json2 as more becomes available for it, but take care to check for type. Currently the only possible value is "Diagnostic".
  • Added rawlen to the Luau standard library.
  • Added Font.fromEnum, Font.fromName, and Font.fromId to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added the missing table.foreachi function to Lua 5.1 standard library as deprecated.

Fixed

  • warn in the Roblox standard library now properly works with all data types instead of only strings.

0.22.0 - 2022-10-15

Added

  • Added --allow-warnings option to have selene pass when only warnings occur.
  • Added the ability to allow specific patterns in the deprecated lint.
  • Added exclude option to selene.toml for excluding files from lints
  • Adds support for .yaml extensions to be used for standard libraries alongside .yml.
  • Normalized "lint" terminology over "rule" throughout codebase. "rules" in selene.toml should now be "lints", but "rules" will still be supported for backwards compatibility.

Changed

  • Updated internal parser, giving substantial parsing speed increases.

0.21.1 - 2022-09-19

Fixed

  • Fixed not being able to use projects without selene.toml.

0.21.0 - 2022-09-17

Added

  • undefined_variable now properly catches global as undefined in function global.name().
  • Added the "luau" builtin library.
  • unused_variable and incorrect_standard_library_use will now suggest configuring a standard library if one is detected.
  • Added constant_table_comparison check to catch x == {}, which will always fail.
  • Added high_cyclomatic_complexity check to catch overly complex functions that are hard to test, and harder to reason about. This lint is disabled by default.
  • Added Font.new to the Roblox standard library.
  • roblox_incorrect_roact_usage now lints for invalid events.

Changed

  • Match .luau filename extension by default.
  • Allow --pattern to be passed multiple times.
  • roblox_incorrect_roact_usage now uses the generated standard library to know what classes and properties exist, meaning a selene update is no longer necessary to update.
  • Roblox standard libraries are now guaranteed to regenerate when the previously generated standard library is on a different version.

Fixed

  • Fixed unused_variable incorrectly tagging function global.name() when global is defined in the standard library.
  • Fixed unscoped_variables incorrectly tagging function global.name() as creating an unscoped variable for global.
  • Fixed roblox_incorrect_roact_usage always showing the class name as "Instance". (#297)
  • roblox_incorrect_roact_usage will now find instances of createElement that do not specify properties.
  • Fixed issues where roblox_incorrect_color3_new_bounds would sometimes fail to run.

0.20.0 - 2022-07-21

Added

  • Added utf8 globals to the builtin lua53 standard library.
  • Added Roblox datatype constructors CatalogSearchParams.new, FloatCurveKey.new, and RotationCurveKey.new.

Changed

  • Errors for generating Roblox API dumps are now more detailed.

Fixed

  • Fixed newer versions of the Roblox API dump failing to create standard libraries for.
  • Fixed reporting an error when generating standard libraries panicking.

0.19.1 - 2022-06-22

Fixed

  • Fixed releases coming with Tracy.

0.19.0 - 2022-06-22

Added

  • table.insert(x) no longer counts as a read to x, which allows selene to alert you that you are only assigning to it.
    • This is done through a new standard library field for arguments called observes. This takes 3 values: "read-write" (the default), signifying a potential read and write, "read", signifying only a read, and "write", signifying only a write. Only "write" has meaning at this time.
  • Added new must_use lint, which will warn you when you are not using the return value of a function that performs no other behavior.
    • This is done through a new standard library field for functions called must_use. Set it to true to gain this functionality.

Fixed

  • Fixed a bunch of performance failures, lowering some benchmarks from 3 seconds to 200ms.

0.18.2 - 2022-06-10

Fixed

  • Fixed Enum.NAME.Value failing in newly generated standard libraries.

0.18.1 - 2022-06-07

Changed

0.18.0 - 2022-06-07

Added

  • Added new YAML based standard library format. The old TOML format is now deprecated and will not have any new functionality added to it, but will be preserved for the forseeable future.
    • You can upgrade old TOML standard libraries by running selene upgrade-std library.toml, which will create a new .yml file of the same name in the new format.
    • This only affects standard library files. selene.toml has not changed.
  • Added new deprecated lint, which can be configured by standard libraries.
  • Added debug.resetmemorycategory to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added debug.setmemorycategory to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added --no-summary option to suppress summary information.

Changed

  • Roblox standard library files are now no longer generated in the project directory, and will be updated automatically every 6 hours. You can update it manually with selene update-roblox-std.
    • As per the deprecation of TOML standard libraries, you should delete your roblox.toml if you have one.
    • It is possible to pin a standard library in the same way roblox.toml was if you are in an environment where you do not want automatic updates, such as one where you want to limit selene's internet usage. Learn more on the Roblox Guide documentation page.

Removed

  • With the introduction of the new deprecated lint, the --deprecated field has been removed from generate-roblox-std, and is now implied.

0.17.0 - 2022-04-10

Added

  • Added task.cancel to the Roblox standard library.

0.16.0 - 2022-01-30

Added

  • Added support for parsing generic type packs, variadic type packs, and explicit type packs in generic arguments for a type under the roblox feature flag (type X<S...> = Y<(string, number), ...string, S...>)
  • Added support for string and boolean singleton types under the roblox feature flag (type Element = { ["$$typeof"]: number, errorCaught: true, which: "Query" | "Mutation" | "Subscription" }
  • Added support for default types in a generic type declaration under the roblox feature flag (type Foo<X = string> = X)
  • Added table.freeze, table.isfrozen, bit32.countlz, bit32.countrz to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added Vector2.zero, Vector2.one, Vector2.xAxis, Vector2.yAxis to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added Vector3.zero, Vector3.one, Vector3.xAxis, Vector3.yAxis, Vector3.zAxis to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added CFrame.identity to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added gcinfo to the Roblox standard library.

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug where empty else blocks were not properly closing their scope, meaning that they could confuse the shadowing lint. (#116)

0.15.0 - 2021-11-05

Added

  • Added OverlapParams to the Roblox standard library.
  • Added Enum:GetEnums() to the Roblox standard library. (#312)
  • roblox_incorrect_color3_new_bounds now checks for if the given number is negative. (#83)

Fixed

  • Fixed standard library error when missing files. (#272)
  • Fixed display style option triggering ArgumentConflict when using quiet option. (#288)
  • bad_string_escape now correctly handles escapes of the shape \1a (one or two numbers followed by a hex digit). (#292)
  • Fixed Roblox types not counting towards usage. (#270)
  • Fixed incorrect number of paremeters for bit32.replace

Changed

  • duplicate_keys now has a error severity. (#262)
  • Arguments of collectgarbage now considered to be optional. (#287)
  • Updated internal parser, adding new Luau syntax.

0.14.0 - 2021-07-07

Added

  • Added task library to Roblox standard library.

Changed

  • mismatched_arg_count now tries to find the best overlap between multiple definitions, rather than ignoring them entirely. This means that if you have f(a) and f(b, c) defined, then calling f(1, 2, 3) will now lint instead of silently passing, since no definition provided meets it.
  • mismatched_arg_count now shows all function definitions, rather than the local variable assignment. (#259)

Fixed

0.13.0 - 2021-07-01

Added

  • Added debug.info to the Roblox standard library. (#260)
  • Tokenization errors now form rich diagnostics.

Changed

  • Updated internal parser.
  • Optimized linting process to run better with multiple threads.

Fixed

  • Fixed internal selene panics exiting with a zero code. Panics will now exit with status code 1, allowing it to be picked up by CI.
  • Fixed variables named self not showing as unused if allow_unused_self was enabled. The implicit self variable being unused will still respect this configuration. (#215)

0.12.1 - 2021-05-26

Fixed

  • Fixed compile warning about unused variables.

0.12.0 - 2021-05-26

Added

  • arg is now defined in the Lua 5.1 standard library.
  • Root level ... will no longer be declared an undefined variable.
  • Using ... past the first depth will now error with undefined_variable, as it is guaranteed improper code.
  • You can now combine a function with fields inside standard libraries. This is useful for something like expect() and expect.extend().
  • Added mismatched_arg_count lint which will lint against too many arguments passed to calls for locally defined functions.
  • Added duplicate_keys lint for checking keys defined more than once inside a table.

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug where some indexes of Roblox structures would fail (such as workspace.CurrentCamera.ViewportSize.X)
  • Fixed a bug where chaining roblox with another standard library would not read the other standard library if roblox was being generated.
  • Fixed a bug where 0.5 * x would always resolve to a number.

Changed

  • Updated internal parser. This has shown in practice to catch lints that the previous version did not.

0.11.0 - 2021-01-04

Added

  • Added support for DateTime in the Roblox standard library.
  • Added support for table.clear in the Roblox standard library.

0.10.1 - 2020-12-22

0.9.2 - 2020-11-06

Changed

0.9.1 - 2020-11-04

Fixed

  • allow_unused_self is now toggled on for unused_variable by default.
  • Updated local Roblox reflection for more up to date instances.

Fixed

  • Using a function call as the last argument in a function will silence lint for not passing enough parameters. This means, for example, math.max(unpack(numbers)) will no longer error.
  • Using an ellipsis on the right side of unbalanced assignments no longer lints.

0.8.0 - 2020-08-24

Added

  • Added support for os.clock.
  • Added RaycastParams.new.
  • Added support for string.pack, string.packsize, and string.unpack to the Roblox standard library.
