Bronze - patch 1

This release prepares for the latest builds of hhvm by asserting some types at runtime.

Bronze

This release drops support for hhvm version 4.102 through hhvm version 4.151.

Silver - patch 2

This is the first release of expr-dump with non-experimental support for hhvm 25+.

Silver - patch 1

This release fixes an error where hhvm-four-shim ^1 was required. This should have been <1.

Silver

This release loosens the hhvm requirement from ^4.102 to >=4.102.

Gold

This release sprinkles some newlines in the generated code.
Without these newlines, hackfmt chokes on absurdly (but still realistically) large files.
These newlines push the boundaries of what code can be reasonably formatted.

This release might cause your code to format differently than before.
If you want the minimal amount of changes to the output, remove the newline before passing the code to hackfmt.

This release starts the version 1.x line, not because of a breaking change,
but because expr-dump has been stable for a long while.

Oxygen - patch 1

This release of expr-dump accepts and requires type-visitor version 1.x.

No changes were made.

Oxygen

This is the first release of expr-dump.

We are skipping v0.0.0 Ho, Ho, Ho. The current api is stable^TM1. All the options are provided via a shape, so new options that deprecate the older ones can be added in a backwards compatible way.

This utility builds on the previous work in type-visitor. Dump values to source code, yep, that's about it. If you have never needed it, you'll hear crickets. If you have used hacky Str\replace() workarounds to approximate this, like hhvm-autoload does, or you have had the pleasure of writing a HackCodegen\HackBuilderRenderer, you may like this solution, no promises.

Support for built-in dumpers is limited to the following types:

• bool
• dict
• dynamic / mixed / nonnull
• enums (require an EnumDefinition)
• float (also num)
• keyset
• int (also arraykey, num)
• null
• nullables (of any of the supported types)
• shape
• string (also arraykey)
• tuple
• vec
• vec_or_dict

Support for other types can be added with custom dumpers and default dumpers can be overridden using the same mechanism.

In the same line as static-type-assertion-code-generator, use this dependency as a development dependency. TypeVisitor is built on an eternally unstable api. (It has been unstable since at least 2016).
