Never too late to make stupid mistakes

Fixed

• crash when executing command due to forgotten explicit self

A new beginning

Added

• where it makes sense, defaults for command line settings can be changed in i3configger.json (command line overrides settings in config)
• make status command configurable (for refresh)
• off-switch for ipc configuration (for easier testing)
• functional tests for main cli functionality

Changed

• keep Python version in sync with Arch system Python: test with Python 3.7
• breaking changes in i3configger.json - check examples to see what is different. Easiest way to upgrade is to move your old config to the side, run i3configger to generate a new default config and add your settings from the old config back in.
• terminology: i3status -> i3bar
• terminology: value -> select
• internal modernization and refactoring

Fixed

• wrong use of reversed in select-next/previous

Removed

• option for different config has no real use and unnecessarily complicates things

Naming things is hard

Changed

• Name for i3bar key is fixed to i3bar - no need to be configurable

Fixed

• don't crash if no i3bar config file was yet generated
• terminology i3status -> i3bar

It's just getting better and better

Added

• resolve variables with as many levels of indirections as you want
• if resolving fails proper feedback about the failing path is given
• better error handling/notification, when config is broken
• tests for resolving contexts

Fixed

• watch process does not crash anymore but gives proper feedback
• don't crash if switching without a default in .messages.json

The devil is in the detail

Changed

• do not add partial into config if it purely contains set statements
• strip empty lines from beginning and end of partials

Time to make an -git AUR?

Changed

• make checks more forgiving if no i3 is installed - for testing a complete run after a PKGBUILD

Packaging is fun and good for testing

Changed

• improve ipc handling - fix setting methods too late

Do the right thing

Fixed

• use actual partials path for initialization instead of assuming that parent of config path == partials path

Need for speed

Changed

• shave off a few hundred precious milliseconds startup time, by moving the very expensive version fetching into a function that is only called, when the version is really needed.
• help the user, when they use a non existing command
• remove unwanted side effects from message
• when config.d already exists, but no i3configger.json exists yet, it is automatically created now
• better examples/tests

The great packaging adventure begins

Changed

• (internal) vendor in a different inotify library that makes it easier to package for Archlinux
