- Handle descr, url and files in the rewriting
- Minor fix
Read the latest releases and updates from the OCaml ecosystem.
The dune team is pleased to announce the 1.4.0 release of Dune. The highlight of this release is the improved support for menhir, in particular the long awaited --infer
flag. This seemingly small feature took quite a bit of coordination between the maintainers of dune and menhir. So I'd like to thank @fpottier for helping us out with this by adding better support for dune in menhir itself, and implementing the majority of the support in dune as well.
The rest of the release is mostly bug fixes, but one notable feature is that dune is now C-c
friendly. Dune will now resume exactly where it's stopped after interruption instead of restarting the entire build.
EDIT: I actually forgot to mention that this release also includes integration with OCamlFormat due to @emillon. Initially, I had thought that this feature was released in 1.3.0. Sorry about that!

(#33, @diml)We are happy to announce the final release of opam 2.0.0.
A few weeks ago, we released a last release candidate to be later promoted to 2.0.0, synchronised with the opam package repository upgrade.
You are encouraged to update as soon as you see fit, to continue to get package updates: opam 2.0.0 supports the older formats, and 1.2.2 will no longer get regular updates. See the Upgrade Guide for details about the new features and changes.
The website opam.ocaml.org has been updated, with the full 2.0.0 documentation pages. You can still find the documentation for the previous versions in the corresponding menu.
Package maintainers should be aware of the following:
opam-publish
(2.0.0)For custom repositories, the advice remains the same.
Installation instructions (unchanged):
From binaries: run
sh <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ocaml/opam/master/shell/install.sh)
or download manually from the Github "Releases" page to your PATH. In this case, don't forget to run opam init --reinit -ni
to enable sandboxing if you had version 2.0.0~rc manually installed.
From source, using opam:
opam update; opam install opam-devel
(then copy the opam binary to your PATH as explained, and don't forget to run opam init --reinit -ni
to enable sandboxing if you had version 2.0.0~rc manually installed)
From source, manually: see the instructions in the README.
We hope you enjoy this new major version, and remain open to bug reports and suggestions.

On behalf of the dune team, I'm pleased to announce the release of Dune 1.2.0. This release contains many new goodies which I will not describe here. This is because Etienne Millon has prepared a blog post for this release: https://tarides.com/2018-09-06-dune-1-2-0.html
I'd also like to personally thank him for all work he's done to make this release so great.

Add locations to errors when a missing binary in PATH comes from a dune file (#1096, fixes #1095, @rgrinberg)
We are happy to announce the opam 2.0.0 final release candidate! 🍾
This release features a few bugfixes over Release Candidate 3. It will be promoted to 2.0.0 proper within a few weeks, when the official repository format switches from 1.2.0 to 2.0.0. After that date, updates to the 1.2.0 repository may become limited, as new features are getting used in packages.
It is safe to update as soon as you see fit, since opam 2.0.0 supports the older formats. See the Upgrade Guide for details about the new features and changes. If you are a package maintainer, you should keep publishing as before for now: the roadmap for the repository upgrade will be detailed shortly.
The opam.ocaml.org pages have also been refreshed a bit, and the new version showing the 2.0.0 branch of the repository is already online. Report any issues here.
Installation instructions:
From binaries: run
sh <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ocaml/opam/master/shell/install.sh)
or download manually from the Github "Releases" page to your PATH. In this case, don't forget to run opam init --reinit -ni

%{lib:name:file}
forms (#1022, fixes #1019, @diml)It is my pleasure to announce the 1.0.0 release of Dune!
Dune is a built system for OCaml and Reason projects. It aims at building things fast and providing a smooth user experience.
Dune 1.0.0 is now available on github and in opam.
This is a big milestone for the project as it is the first release using the new Dune name that the community helped to choose. Dune started about a year and a half ago as the more narrow scoped Jbuilder and as since then proven itself to be the right tool for the job.
A big part of the work for this release was preparing the project for long-term support. Dune is the kind of project that will pretty much continue to evolve forever: it needs to keep up with the OCaml compiler evolving, development workflows changing, new kinds of tools with specific needs, etc... While doing so, it also needs to offer stability so that projects released now will continue to build with future versions of Dune.
Meeting these two constraints is a challenge. However, we had to do this for the renaming: we changed many things in Dune using what we learned from the Jbuilder experience. Still, Dune is able to understand and build Jbuilder projects. The mechanism used to support both Jbuilder and Dune projects is fully generic and will be the basis for future evolution.
You can find the full list of changes and bug fixes since Jbuilder 1.0+beta20 on the github release page. Following is an overview of some the new features:
General cleanup of the syntax: less parentheses, better behaved variables
Introduction of a dune.configurator
library to help projects with C stubs detect and query the environment
General improvement of the default behavior: more parallelism by default, development mode by default
Better support for changing the defaults: it is now possible to set the default flags or change what dune build
does by default
Support for setting the build directory
Better support for expectation tests on Windows

(#40, @let-def)We are pleased to announce the release of a third release candidate for opam 2.0.0. This one is expected to be the last before 2.0.0 comes out.
Changes since the 2.0.0~rc2 are, as expected, mostly fixes. We deemed it useful, however, to bring in the following:
opam switch link
that allows to select a switch to be used in a given directory (particularly convenient if you use the shell hook for automatic opam environment update)opam install --assume-built
, that allows to install a package using its normal opam procedure, but for a source repository that has been built by hand. This fills a gap that remained in the local development workflows.The preview of the opam 2 webpages can be browsed at https://opam.ocaml.org/2.0-preview/ (please report issues here).

We are pleased to announce the release of a second release candidate for opam 2.0.0.
This new version brings us very close to a final 2.0.0 release, and in addition to many fixes, features big performance enhancements over the RC1.
Among the new features, we have squeezed in full sandboxing of package commands for both Linux and macOS, to protect our users from any misbehaving scripts.
NOTE: if upgrading manually from 2.0.0~rc, you need to run
opam init --reinit -ni
to enable sandboxing.
The new release candidate also offers the possibility to setup a hook in your shell, so that you won't need to run eval $(opam env)
anymore. This is specially useful in combination with local switches, because with it enabled, you are guaranteed that running make
from a project directory containing a local switch will use it.
The documentation has also been updated, and a preview of the opam 2 webpages can be browsed at https://opam.ocaml.org/2.0-preview/ (please report issues here). This provides the list of packages available for opam 2 (the 2.0
branch of opam-repository), including the compiler packages.

From binaries: run
sh <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ocaml/opam/master/shell/install.sh)
