downlit 0.4.4

• Use simpler parsing algorithm for R 4.0, which avoids crash with certain UTF-8 characters (#189).

downlit 0.4.3

• Fix for upcoming R-devel (#169).

downlit 0.4.2

• highlight() no longer errors if a package imputed to have been attached
  isn't installed.

• Correctly link requireNamespace(MASS) (#151).

downlit 0.4.1

Syntax highlighting

• Supports new base pipe |> syntax (#126).

• Every line get its own <span> to match pandoc (#122).

• Multi-line tokens (e.g. strings) now get a <span> per line (#139).

• Very long strings or other tokens are no longer truncated (@dmurdoch, #128).

Auto-linkg

• Function calls (in inline and code blocks) will no longer to non-function
  topics (#135).

• Re-exports detection no longer relies on name of .Rd file (#134).

• Link to correct topic with ::() and utils::help() (@IndrajeetPatil, #131).

• Generate correct link for Bioconductor vignettes (@zeehio, #145)

downlit 0.4.0

Syntax highlighting

• Messages, warnings, and errors now get a much more minimal style.
  Messages are styled the same way as output; and warnings and errors
  only style the "Warning" or "Error" text. This makes these types of
  output easier to read, and easier for package developers to style
  themselves.

• Messages, warnings, and errors now retrieve their text using
  conditionMessage(), which supports more advanced types of conditions
  (@davidchall, #100).

• The overall structure of the syntax highlighting has been overhauled.
  Now each line is wrapped in a <span> with class r-in (input code),
  r-out (output printed to console), r-plot (plots), r-msg (messages),
  r-wrn (warnings), and r-err (errors). Additionally, the prompt (#>)
  is wrapped in a <span class="r-pr">. Altogether, these changes
  should give much more flexibility for styling with CSS (#90).

• ANSI escapes no longer generate invalid HTML (#79).

• Changes to better support for HTML widgets and rgl in pkgdown
  (@dmurdoch, #78). In particular, evaluate_and_highlight() now returns
  an additional attribute containing all extra dependencies needed to render
  the returned HTML.

Auto-linking

• Packages attached when you call library(package) (including by the
  tidyverse), are now taken into account when autolinking (#87).

• In code blocks, custom infix operators are now autolinked (#89).
  In inline code, infix operators are no longer autolinked; this lead to too
  many false positives. You can still link with (e.g.) ?"-" (#86).

• Inline calls with arguments (e.g. foo(1, 2)) are no longer auto-linked,
  as intended and documented (#82).

• Autolinking vignette(foo, package = "pkg") no longer errors if pkg is not
  installed (#85).

• Unusual help calls (e.g. help(a$b)), no longer generate errors (#77).

• Rare warning about incomplete final line in autolink_url("pkgname::foo")
  is now suppressed (@dmurdoch, pkgdown#1419).

• href_package() is now exported (#103).

• Auto-linking is more likely to succeed when the remote package is not
  installed as downlit now looks for the URL using tools::CRAN_package_db()
  for CRAN packages, and and available.packages() for packages installed
  from non-CRAN repos (@ARawles, #108).

• Functions in HTML <summary> elements are no longer autolinked
  (@gadenbuie, #105).

downlit 0.2.1

• When auto-linking vignette(foo), downlit now looks for a vignette named
  foo in the packages it knows to be attached (#61).

• Can now force highlighting of any <pre> by wrapping it inside a <div>
  with class = "downlit". This is useful in cases where it may otherwise
  be hard to set the class of the <pre>.

• In comments, \u2029 is converted to \033 to make it possible to preserve
  ANSI escapes when passed through xml2.

• No longer errors on library calls with named but empty arguments.

downlit 0.2.0

• Autolinking can use metadata stored in package itself with pkgdown setting
  deploy.install_metadata; this is useful for packages that only have
  private websites (@matthewstrasiotto, #29)

• Autolinking guesses reference and article urls for pkgdown sites that haven't
  set url (@krlmlr, #44).

• R6 classes are autolinked when a new object is created i.e. in
  r6_object$new(), r6_object will link to its docs (#59, @maelle).

• R6 methods are no longer autolinked as if they were functions of the same
  name (#54, @maelle).

• classes_pandoc() and classes_chroma() have been thoroughly revieweed to
  produce syntax highlighting as similar as possible to RStudio.

• downlit_html_path() has a more flexible XPath identifying R code blocks,
  and a classes argument (#53, @maelle, @cderv)

• Trailing / are no longer stripped from URLs (#45, @krlmlr).

• Removed extra newline in <pre> output (#42, @krlmlr).

downlit 0.1.0

• Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
