1.0.0

What's new since 0.8.0

Breaking changes

• [#105] Made 'check-diagram' report undefined reference targets and 3 new model rules as errors that exit with 1. @AlexSkrypnyk (#136)
  In 0.8.0, npm run check-diagram only warned about a reference to an entity the document doesn't define, and warnings alone exit with 0. It now runs the Checks panel's rules too, so that reference, a non-base reference field with no target type, 1 field name with 2 types or cardinalities on the same entity type, and a machine name outside Drupal's pattern or length limit are errors that exit with 1. If a script or CI job runs it over your documents, run it once before upgrading and fix what it reports, usually by adding the missing target entities the old warning pointed at.

• [#133] Changed the fields CSV layout: a new third 'Bundle' column and references written as 'Label (entity id)'. @AlexSkrypnyk (#147)
  Save as > CSV > Fields now writes a Bundle column after Entity type, so every column after it moves 1 place right, and the References cell names each target as Tags (taxonomy_term.tags) instead of the label alone; it also writes a row for each entity with no fields and appends Used in, Help text, Default, Allowed values and Translatable. A spreadsheet or script that reads this CSV by column position or parses References should read columns by header and take the id from the parentheses.

Highlights

• [#104] Showed descriptions, help text and field settings read from config. @AlexSkrypnyk (#121)
  Nexus now reads each bundle's description and each field's help text, default value, allowed values and translatability from exported config, where 0.8.0 dropped everything but label, type, cardinality, required and targets. They show in the tooltip, the Fields table and its CSV, and the Inspector edits them in Edit mode. .nexus.json, the schema and the create-nexus-diagram skill carry them as optional keys, so older documents open unchanged.

• [#106] Added 'Copy link', which puts the whole diagram in the URL fragment, and opened diagrams from such links. @AlexSkrypnyk (#129)
  Copy link at the end of the Save menu packs the diagram, compressed, into the URL fragment, so you can drop it into a chat or a ticket and it opens in 1 click with the same model, layout and type settings. The fragment never reaches a server, &focus= points at 1 entity, and the deflate checksum makes a link damaged in transit fail with a clear alert. A link over 32,000 characters isn't copied; the dialog offers the .nexus.json file instead.

• [#140] Edited fields in place in the Fields table and rendered allowed markup in help text and descriptions. @AlexSkrypnyk (#138)
  Every editable cell of the Fields table now opens an editor in place, in View and Edit mode alike: label, machine name, type, cardinality, required, references, help text, default, allowed values and translatability, each as its own undo step. Help text and descriptions from config also render their allowed HTML (em, strong, code, lists), while scripts, attributes and styles are dropped and links draw as text that can't navigate the page.

• [#105] Added a Checks panel that lists model problems as errors and warnings. @AlexSkrypnyk (#136)
  The new Checks panel lists what Drupal would reject, and what just looks off, and re-checks after every edit, undo and redo: 3 error rules (reference targets, shared field storage with a different type or cardinality, machine names) and 5 warnings, including a field limit you set in Settings. A count badge on the toolbar button turns red on an error, and clicking a problem focuses it on the canvas.

• [#133] Added a CSV import and a CSV template to the Open menu. @AlexSkrypnyk (#147)
  You can now write a content model in a spreadsheet and open it as a diagram: Open > CSV file… or a .csv dropped on the landing screen reads it, and Open > CSV template downloads an example with every column filled in. The import is strict and lists up to 5 problems with their row numbers rather than opening a half-read model, and a fields CSV exported from Nexus imports back as the same entities, fields and references.

• [#114] Added an explore view that shows the entities within 1 to 5 references of an entity, outward, inward or both. @AlexSkrypnyk (#153)
  Explore from here, in the new right-click entity menu and the entity Inspector, keeps only the entities within 1 to 5 references of the one you picked and re-runs the layout on what's left. It answers "what references this media type?" without tracing lines across the whole diagram, records no history step, and Clear in the status bar puts every position and the viewport back.

• [#108] Added 'Compare with' to the Open menu, which shows the bundles, fields and references another version adds, removes or changes. @AlexSkrypnyk (#152)
  Open > Compare with sets the open diagram against a saved .nexus.json or a config folder and marks every bundle, field and reference that's added, removed or changed, with a Changes panel listing the old and new values by bundle. That's the quick answer to "what does this release change in the content model?" or "does the site still match the spec?". Editing and saving are off while it's open, and stopping restores the diagram exactly, with no history step.

Other changes

• [#107] Added a Markdown export that documents each bundle, its fields, notes and references, with an optional Mermaid diagram. @AlexSkrypnyk (#120)
  Save as > Markdown writes <title>.md with a table of contents and a section per bundle holding its fields table, notes and a "Referenced by" line, so the content model can live in the repository next to the code. The Mermaid diagram is included up to 50 entities by default, and the Markdown export settings switch it to always or never.

• Added a daily 'Update templates' workflow that opens 1 pull request per template with its latest upstream tags. @AlexSkrypnyk (#102)
  Template bumps used to be hand edits, and nothing flagged a new upstream release, which is how both templates fell behind. A daily workflow now moves each template to its latest stable tags and opens 1 pull request per template, and npm run update-templates gained --latest, --pr and --list and writes the bundle counts itself.

• [#115] Added the Umami demo profile from Drupal core as a landing template. @AlexSkrypnyk (#125)
  The landing screen offers Umami, the food magazine demo from Drupal core 11.4.12 that most Drupal people have seen: 3 content types, 2 vocabularies, 5 media types, 4 block types and the user.

• Added an HTML report to the 'Save as' menu that documents each bundle, its fields, notes and references. @AlexSkrypnyk (#124)
  Save as > HTML writes a standalone report with the same sections and anchors as the Markdown export, for anyone who'd rather open the model in a browser than in a Markdown viewer. The page loads nothing and runs no script, enforced by its own Content Security Policy, and follows the reader's light or dark scheme.

• Fixed the outline test reading 'field_media' by index after the saved document gained a 'field_layout' field. @AlexSkrypnyk (#126)
  A unit test read field_media by position and broke once the shared fixture gained a field before it, so the test now finds the field by name. Test-only, with no change to the app.

• [#116] Added the Thunder publishing distribution as a landing template. @AlexSkrypnyk (#130)
  The landing screen offers Thunder 8.4.7, the publishing distribution built from paragraphs and 7 media types. Along the way the parser learned negated Paragraphs selections (negate: 1): a field that allows every paragraph type except a listed few now targets those bundles, where it used to point at an Any Paragraph placeholder, or with exclusions, at exactly the excluded ones.

• Fixed the templates e2e spec failing on every template update by reading versions and counts from 'TEMPLATES'. @AlexSkrypnyk (#132)
  The templates e2e spec spelled out each version and bundle count, so every automated template update failed CI on its own pull request. It now reads them from TEMPLATES, the file the update script rewrites.

• Skipped the Scorecard job on pull requests, where its local-only upload left code scanning neutral. @AlexSkrypnyk (#127)
  On a pull request Scorecard could upload only 1 of the 3 code scanning categories main has, which left every PR with a neutral "2 configurations not found" check. It now runs on main only, while CodeQL still runs on every pull request.

• Added sortable Fields table columns with a '#' column, scrolled the table with its panel, and resized floating panels from their edges. @AlexSkrypnyk (#128)
  Every Fields table column sorts from its header, cycling ascending, descending and back to the new # order within each entity, and the table scrolls both ways inside its panel with the toolbar and header sticky. Floating panels resize from their left, right and bottom edges and bottom corners, a double-click on a handle resets the size, and the table's search and sort now survive docking.

• Updated the Drupal CMS template to 2.2.9. @github-actions[bot] (#123)

• Updated the CivicTheme template to 1.14.0. @github-actions[bot] (#122)

• [#117] Added Open Social 13.1.0 as a landing template. @AlexSkrypnyk (#131)
  The landing screen offers Open Social 13.1.0, the community and intranet distribution: 8 content types, 20 paragraph types, 11 vocabularies, 9 block types, 1 media type and the user, read from 33 feature-module config folders. Nexus doesn't draw groups, profiles or posts, so references to them land on placeholder entities that stay **out of the template...
