CHANGES.md.html
3.14.0 (2024-02-12)
Added
Introduce a
(dynamic_include ..)
stanza. This is like(include foo)
but allowsfoo
to be the target of a rule. Currently, there are some limitations on the stanzas that can be generated. For example, public executables, libraries are currently forbidden. (#9913, @rgrinberg)Introduce
$ dune promotion list
to print the list of available promotions. (#9705, @moyodiallo)If Sherlodoc is installed, add a search bar in generated HTML docs (#9772, @EmileTrotignon)
Add
only_sources
field tocopy_files
stanza (#9827, fixes #9709, @jchavarri)The
(foreign_library)
stanza now supports the(enabled_if)
field. (#9914, @nojb)
Fixed
Fix
$ dune install -p
incorrectly recognizing packages that are supposed to be filtered (#9879, fixes #4814, @rgrinberg)subst: correctly handle opam files in opam/ subdirectory (#9895, fixes #9862, @emillon)
Odoc private rules are not set up if a library is not available due to
enabled_if
(#9897, @rgrinberg and @jchavarri)
Changed
When dune language 3.14 is enabled, resolve the binary in
(run %{bin:..} ..)
from where the binary is built. (#9708, @rgrinberg)boot: remove single-command bootstrap. This was an alternative bootstrap strategy that was used in certain conditions. Removal makes the bootstrap a bit slower on Linux when only a single core is available, but bootstrap is now reproducible in all cases. (#9735, fixes #9507, @emillon)
3.13.1 (2024-02-05)
Fix performance regression for incremental builds (#9769, fixes #9738, @rgrinberg)
Fix
dune ocaml top-module
to correctly handle absolute paths. (#8249, fixes #7370, @Alizter)subst: ignore broken symlinks when looking at source files (#9810, fixes #9593, @emillon)
subst: do not fail on 32-bit systems when large files are encountered. Just log a warning in this case. (#9811, fixes #9538, @emillon)
boot: sort directory entries in readdir. This makes the dune binary reproducible in terms of filesystem order. (#9861, fixes #9794, @emillon)
3.13.0 (2024-01-16)
Added
Add command
dune cache clear
to completely delete all traces of the Dune cache. (#8975, @nojb)Allow to disable Coq 0.8 deprecation warning (#9439, @ejgallego)
Allow
OCAMLFIND_TOOLCHAIN
to be set per context in the workspace file through theenv
stanza. (#9449, @rgrinberg)Menhir: generate
.conflicts
file by default. Add new field to the(menhir)
stanza to control the generation of this file:(explain <blang expression>)
. Introduce(menhir (flags ...) (explain ...))
field in the(env)
stanza, delete(menhir_flags)
field. All changes are guarded under a new version of the Menhir extension, 3.0. (#9512, @nojb)Directory targets can now be cached. (#9535, @rleshchinskiy)
It is now possible to use special forms such as
(:include)
and variables%{read-lines:}
in(modules)
and similar fields. Note that the dependencies introduced in this way (ie the files being read) must live in a different directory than the stanza making use of them. (#9578, @nojb)Remove warning 30 from default set for projects where dune lang is at least 3.13 (#9568, @gasche)
Add
coqdoc_flags
field tocoq
field ofenv
stanza allowing the setting of workspace-wide defaults forcoqdoc_flags
. (#9280, fixes #9139, @Alizter)ctypes: fix an error where
(ctypes)
with no(function_description)
would cause an error trying refer to a nonexistent_stubs.a
dependency (#9302, fix #9300, @emillon)
Changed
Check that package names in
(depends)
and related fields indune-project
are well-formed. (#9472, fixes #9270, @ElectreAAS)
Fixed
Do not ignore
(formatting ..)
settings in context or workspace files (#8447, @rgrinberg)Fixed a bug where Dune was incorrectly parsing the output of coqdep when it was escaped, as is the case on Windows. (#9231, fixes #9218, @Alizter)
Copying mode for sandboxes will now follow symbolic links (#9282, @rgrinberg)
Forbid the empty
(binaries ..)
field in theenv
stanza in the workspace file unless language version is at least 3.2. (#9309, @rgrinberg)[coq] Fix bug in computation of flags when composed with boot theories. (#9347, fixes #7909, @ejgallego)
Fixed a bug where the
(select)
field of the(libraries)
field of the(test)
stanza wasn't working properly. (#9387, fixes #9365, @Alizter)Fix handling of the
PATH
argument todune init proj NAME PATH
. An intermediate directory calledNAME
is no longer created ifPATH
is supplied, sodune init proj my_project .
will now initialize a project in the current working directory. (#9447, fixes #9209, @shonfeder)Experimental doc rules: Correctly handle the case when a package depends upon its own sublibraries (#9461, fixes #9456, @jonludlam)
Resolve various public binaries to their build location, rather than to where they're copied in the
_build/install
directory (#9496, fixes #7908, @rgrinberg).Correctly ignore warning flags in vendored projects (#9515, @rgrinberg)
Use watch exclusions in watch mode on MacOS (#9643, fixes #9517, @PoorlyDefinedBehaviour)
Fix merlin configuration for
(include_subdirs qualified)
modules (#9659, fixes #8297, @rgrinberg)Fix handling of
enabled_if
in binary install stanzas. Previously, we'd ignore the result ofenabled_if
when evaluating%{bin:..}
(#9707, @rgrinberg)
3.12.2 (2024-01-05)
Fix version check in
runtest_alias
forcram

Introduce new experimental odoc rules (#8803, @jonjudlam)
Introduce the
runtest_alias
field to thecram
stanza. This allows removing defaultruntest
alias from tests. (@rgrinberg, #8887)Do not ignore libraries named
bigarray
when they are defined in conjunction with OCaml 5.0 (#8902, fixes #8901, @rgrinberg)Dependencies in the copying sandbox are now writeable (#8920, @rgrinberg)
Absent packages shouldn't prevent all rules from being loaded (#8948, fixes #8630, @rgrinberg)

Re-run actions whenever
(expand_aliases_in_sandbox)
changes (#8990, @rgrinberg)Rules that only use internal dune actions (
write-file
,echo
, etc.) can now be sandboxed. (#9041, fixes #8854, @rgrinberg)Do not re-run rules when their location changes (#9052, @rgrinberg)
Correctly ignore
bigarray
on recent version of OCaml (#9076, @rgrinberg)Add
test_
prefix to default test name indune init project
(#9257, fixes #9131, @9sako6)[coq rules] Be more tolerant when coqc --print-version / --config don't work properly, and fallback to a reasonable default. This fixes problems when building Coq projects with
(stdlib no)
and likely other cases. (#8966, fix #8958, @Alizter, reported by Lasse Blaauwbroek)Dune will now run at a lower framerate of 15 fps rather than 60 when
INSIDE_EMACS
. (#8812, @Alizter)dune-build-info: when
version=""
is found in aMETA
file, we now returnNone
as a version string (#9177, @emillon)Dune can now be built and installed on Haiku (#8795, fix #8551, @Alizter)
Mark installed directories in
dune-package
files. This fixes(package)
dependencies against packages that contain such directories. (#8953, fixes #8915, @emillon)
3.11.1 (2023-10-09)
Fix
dune rpc
commands on Windows (#8806, fixes #8799, @nojb)Fix

when the partition list is empty (#8849, fixes #8848, @hhugo)
3.11.0 (2023-09-22)
enabled_if
now supportsarch_sixtyfour
variable (#8023, fixes #7997, @Alizter)Use
posix_spawn
instead offork
on MacOS. This gives us a performance boost and allows us to re-enable thread. (#8090, @rgrinberg)Experimental: Added a
$ dune monitor
command that can connect to a runningdune build
in watch mode and display the errors and progress. (#8152, @Alizter)The
progress
RPC procedure now has an extra field for theIn_progress
constructor for the number of failed jobs. (#8212, @Alizter)Add a
--preview
flag todune fmt
which causes it to print out the changes it would make without applying them (#8289, @gridbugs)Introduce
(source_trees ..)
to the install stanza to allow installing entire source trees. (#8349, @rgrinberg)Add
--stop-on-first-error
option todune build
which will terminate the build when the first error is encountered. (#8400, @pmwhite and @Alizter)Dune now displays the number of errors when waiting for changes in watch mode. (#8408, fixes #6889, @Alizter)
Add
with_prefix
keyword for changing the prefix of the destination of installed files matched by globs. (#8416, @gridbugs)Added experimental

warnings
field todune-project
files as a unified mechanism to enable or disable dune warnings (@rgrinberg, 8448)dune exec
: support syntax like%{bin:program}
. This can appear anywhere in the command line, so things likedune exec time %{bin:program}
now work. (#6035, #8474, fixes #2691, @emillon, @Leonidas-from-XIV)Make copy sandbox support directory targets. (#8705, fixes #7724, @emillon)
Add a new alias
@doc-json
to build odoc documentation in JSON format. This output can be consumed by external tools. (#8178, @emillon)Modules that were declared in
(modules_without_implementation)
,(private_modules)
or(virtual_modules)
but not declared in(modules)
will raise an error. (#7674, @Alizter)No longer emit linkopts(javascript) in META files (#8168, @hhugo)
Deprecate install destination paths beginning with ".." to prevent packages escaping their designated installation directories. (#8350, @gridbugs)
RPC message styles are now serialised meaning that RPC diagnostics keep their Ansi styling. (#8516, fixes #6921, @Alizter)
Truncate output from actions that produce too much output (@tov, #8351)
Allow libraries to shadow OCaml builtin libraries. Previously, builtin libraries would always take precedence. (@rgrinberg, #8558)
Remove warning against
.dune
files generated by pre dune 2.0 (#8611, @rgrinberg)dune utop
no longer linksutop
in "custom" mode, which should make this command considerably faster. (#8631, fixes #6894, @nojb)Ensure that package names in

Fix flushing when using
sendfile
fallback (#8288, fixes #8284, @alan-j-hu)
3.9.2 (2023-07-25)

command group which is an alias ofdune describe
. (#7946, @Alizter)Include source tree scans in the traces produced by
--trace-file
(#7937, @rgrinberg)Cinaps: The promotion rules for cinaps would only offer one file at a time no matter how many promotions were available. Now we offer all the promotions at once (#7901, @rgrinberg)
Do not re-run OCaml syntax files on every iteration of the watch mode. This is too memory consuming. (#7894, fix #6900, @rgrinberg)
Add
--all
option todune rpc status
to show all Dune RPC servers running. (#8011, fix #7902, @Alizter)Remove some compatibility code for old version of dune that generated

interface
andimplementation
fields of a(dialect)

stanza. When it evaluates to false, the executable is not built. (#7899, fixes #6938, @emillon)Add necessary parentheses in generated opam constraints (#7682, fixes #3431, @Lucccyo)
3.8.3 (2023-06-27)
Fix deadlock on Windows (#8044, @nojb)
When using

3.8.1 (2023-06-05)
Fix a crash when using a version of Coq < 8.13 due to the native compiler config variable being missing. We now explicitly default to
(mode vo)
for these older versions of Coq. (#7847, fixes #7846, @Alizter)Duplicate installed Coq theories are now allowed with the first appearing in COQPATH being preferred. This is inline with Coq's loadpath semantics. This fixes an issue with install layouts based on COQPATH such as those found in nixpkgs. (#7790, @Alizter)
Revert #7415 and #7450 (Resolve

ocaml
binary with findlib configuration (#7648, @rgrinberg)merlin: ignore instrumentation settings for preprocessing. (#7606, fixes #7465, @Alizter)
When a rule's action is interrupted, delete any leftover directory targets. This is consistent with how we treat file targets. (#7564, @rgrinberg)
Fix plugin loading with findlib. The functionality was broken in 3.7.0. (#7556, @anmonteiro)
Introduce a
public_headers
field on libraries. This field is likeinstall_c_headers

Dune can now detect Coq theories from outside the workspace. This allows for composition with installed theories (not necessarily installed with Dune). (#7047, @Alizter, @ejgallego)
dune coq top
now correctly respects the project root when called from a subdirectory. However, absolute filenames passed todune coq top
are no longer supported (due to being buggy) (#7357, fixes #7344, @rlepigre and @Alizter)Added a

Stub shared libraries (dllXXX_stubs.so) in Dune-installed libraries could not be used as dependencies of libraries in the workspace (eg when compiling to bytecode and/or Javascript). This is now fixed. (#7151, @nojb)
Allow the main module of a library with

Introduce mdx stanza 0.4 requiring mdx >= 2.3.0 which updates the default list of files to include
*.mld

Coq language versions less 0.8 are deprecated, and will be removed in an upcoming Dune version. All users are required to migrate to
(coq lang 0.8)
which provides the right semantics for theories that have been globally installed, such as those coming from opam (@ejgallego, @Alizter)Bump minimum version of the dune language for the melange syntax extension from 3.7 to 3.8 (#7665, @jchavarri)
3.7.1 (2023-04-04)
Fix segfault on MacOS when dune was being shutdown while in watch mode. (#7312, fixes #6151, @gridbugs, @emillon)
Fix preludes not being recorded as dependencies in the

is now equivalent to no(public_name)
. This is consistent with how(executables)
handles this field. (#7576 , fixes #5852, @emillon)Change directory of odoc assets to

the executed binary whenever it is recompiled. (#6966, @gridbugs)coqdep
is now called once per theory, instead of one time per Coq file. This should significantly speed up some builds, ascoqdep

Add support for sandboxing using hard links (#4360, Andrey Mokhov)
Fix dune crash when
subdir

(rule (alias runtest) (action (run ./test)))
. A visible result for users is that such actions are now memoized for longer. For instance:$ echo '(rule (alias runtest) (action (echo "X=%{env:X=0}\n")))` > dune $ X=1 dune runtest X=1 $ X=2 dune runtest X=2 $ X=1 dune runtest
Previously, Dune would have re-executed the action again at the last line. Now it remembers the result of the first execution.
Fix a bug where dune would always re-run all actions that produce symlinks, even if their dependencies did not change. (#4405, @aalekseyev)

Add CLI flags

of actions when they succeed or to request that thestderr

Extend the environment variable

(#4466, @jeremiedimino)Simplify the implementation of build cache. We stop using the cache daemon to access the cache and instead write to and read from it directly. The new cache implementation is based on Jenga's cache library, which was thoroughly tested on large-scale builds. Using Jenga's cache library will also make it easier for us to port Jenga's cloud cache to Dune. (#4443, #4465, Andrey Mokhov)
More informative error message when Dune can't read a target that's supposed to be produced by the action. Old message is still produced on ENOENT, but other errors deserve a more detailed report. (#4501, @aalekseyev)
Fixed a bug where a sandboxed action would fail if it declares no dependencies in its initial working directory or any directory it
chdir
s into. (#4509, @aalekseyev)Fix a crash when clearing temporary directories (#4489, #4529, Andrey Mokhov)
Dune now memoizes all errors when running in the file-watching mode. This speeds up incremental rebuilds but may be inconvenient in rare cases, e.g. if a build action fails due to a spurious error, such as running out of memory. Right now, the only way to force such actions to be rebuilt is to restart Dune, which clears all memoized errors. In future, we would like to provide a way to rerun all actions failed due to errors without restarting the build, e.g. via a Dune RPC call. (#4522, Andrey Mokhov)
Remove

It was broken and unused (#4540, @jeremiedimino)No longer generate an approximate merlin files when computing the ocaml flags fails, for instance because they include the contents of a file that failed to build.

The names declared here can be used in the (old_public_name) field of (deprecated_library_name) stanza. These names are interpreted as library names (not prefixed by a package name) and appropriate redirections are setup in their META files.

1.9.2 (02/05/2019)
Put back library variants in development mode. We discovered a serious unexpected issue and we might need to adjust the design of this feature before we are ready to commit to a final version. Users will need to write
(using library_variants 0.1)
in theirdune-project
file if they want to use it before the design is finalized. (#2116, @diml)Forbid to attach a variant to a library that implements a virtual library outside the current project (#2104, @rgrinberg)
Fix a bug where
dune install

Change the semantic of aliases: there are no longer aliases that are recursive such as

1.0+beta2 (10/03/2017)
Simplified the rules for finding the root of the workspace as the old ones were often picking up the home directory. New rules are:
look for a
jbuild-workspace
file in parent directorieslook for a
jbuild-workspace*
file in parent directoriesuse the current directory
Fixed the expansion of
${ROOT}
in actionsInstall
quick-start.org
in the documentation directoryAdd a few more things in the log file to help debugging
1.0+beta1 (07/03/2017)
Added a manual
Support incremental compilation
Switched the CLI to cmdliner and added a
build
command (#5, @rgrinberg)Added a few commands:
runtest
install
uninstall
installed-libraries
exec
: execute a command in an environment similar to what you would get afterjbuilder install
Removed the
build-package
command in favor of a--only-packages
option that is common to all commandsAutomatically generate
.merlin
files (#2, @rdavison)Improve the output of jbuilder, in particular don't mangle the output of commands when using
-j N
withN > 1
Generate a log in
_build/log
Versioned the jbuild format and added a first stable version. You should now put
(jbuilder_version 1)
in ajbuild
file at the root of your project to ensure forward compatibilitySwitch from
ppx_driver
toocaml-migrate-parsetree.driver
. In order to use ppx rewriters with Jbuilder, they need to useocaml-migrate-parsetree.driver
Added support for aliases (#7, @rgrinberg)
Added support for compiling against multiple opam switch simultaneously by writing a
jbuild-workspace
fileAdded support for OCaml 4.02.3
Added support for architectures that don't have natdynlink
Search the root according to the rules described in the manual instead of always using the current directory
extended the action language to support common actions without using a shell:
(with-stdout-to <file> <DSL>)
(copy <src> <dst>)
...
Removed all implicit uses of bash or the system shell. Now one has to write explicitly
(bash "...")
or(system "...")
Generate meaningful versions in
META
filesStrengthen the scope of a package. Jbuilder knows about package
foo
only in the sub-tree starting from wherefoo.opam
lives
