Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.17.2, Package name: elixir-1.17.2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users
Elixir is a functional, meta-programming aware language built on top of the
Erlang VM. It is a dynamic language that focuses on tooling to leverage
Erlang's abilities to build concurrent, distributed and fault-tolerant
applications with hot code upgrades.

# Changelog for Elixir v1.16
## Code snippets in diagnostics
Elixir v1.15 introduced a new compiler diagnostic format and the ability to \
print multiple error diagnostics per compilation (in addition to multiple \
warnings).
With Elixir v1.16, we also include code snippets in exceptions and diagnostics \
raised by the compiler. For example, a syntax error now includes a pointer to \
where the error happened:
```
** (SyntaxError) invalid syntax found on lib/my_app.ex:1:17:
error: syntax error before: '*'
│
1 │ [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, *]
│ ^
│
└─ lib/my_app.ex:1:17
```
For mismatched delimiters, it now shows both delimiters:
```
** (MismatchedDelimiterError) mismatched delimiter found on lib/my_app.ex:1:18:
error: unexpected token: )
│
1 │ [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
│ │ └ mismatched closing delimiter (expected "]")
│ └ unclosed delimiter
│
└─ lib/my_app.ex:1:18
```
For unclosed delimiters, it now shows where the unclosed delimiter starts:
```
** (TokenMissingError) token missing on lib/my_app:8:23:
error: missing terminator: )
│
1 │ my_numbers = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
│ └ unclosed delimiter
...
8 │ IO.inspect(my_numbers)
│ └ missing closing delimiter (expected ")")
│
└─ lib/my_app:8:23
```
Errors and warnings diagnostics also include code snippets. When possible, we \
will show precise spans, such as on undefined variables:
```
error: undefined variable "unknown_var"
│
5 │ a - unknown_var
│ ^^^^^^^^^^^
│
└─ lib/sample.ex:5:9: Sample.foo/1
```
Otherwise the whole line is underlined:
```
error: function names should start with lowercase characters or underscore, \
invalid name CamelCase
│
3 │ def CamelCase do
│ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
│
└─ lib/sample.ex:3
```
A huge thank you to Vinícius Müller for working on the new diagnostics.
## Revamped documentation
Elixir's Getting Started guides have been made part of the Elixir repository and \
incorporated into ExDoc. This was an opportunity to revisit and unify all \
official guides and references.
We have also incorporated and extended the work on [Understanding Code Smells in \
Elixir Functional \
Language](https://github.com/lucasvegi/Elixir-Code-Smells/blob/main/etc/2023-emse-code-smells-elixir.pdf), \
by Lucas Vegi and Marco Tulio Valente, from \
[ASERG/DCC/UFMG](https://aserg.labsoft.dcc.ufmg.br/), into the official document \
in the form of anti-patterns. The anti-patterns are divided into four \
categories: code-related, design-related, process-related, and meta-programming. \
Our goal is to give all developers examples of potential anti-patterns, with \
context and examples on how to improve their codebases.
Another [ExDoc](https://github.com/elixir-lang/ex_doc) feature we have \
incorporated in this release is the addition of cheatsheets, starting with [a \
cheatsheet for the Enum module](https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/main/enum-cheat.html). \
If you would like to contribute future cheatsheets to Elixir itself, feel free \
to start a discussion with an issue.
Finally, we have started enriching our documentation with \
[Mermaid.js](https://mermaid.js.org/) diagrams. You can find examples in the \
[GenServer](https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/main/GenServer.html) and \
[Supervisor](https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/main/Supervisor.html) docs.
## v1.16.0 (2023-12-22)
### 1. Enhancements
#### EEx
* [EEx] Include relative file information in diagnostics
#### Elixir
* [Code] Add `:emit_warnings` for `Code.string_to_quoted/2`
* [Code] Automatically include columns in parsing options

delimiter exceptions

* [Kernel] Suggest module names based on suffix and casing errors when the \
module does not exist in `UndefinedFunctionError`
* [Kernel.ParallelCompiler] Introduce `Kernel.ParallelCompiler.pmap/2` to \
compile multiple additional entries in parallel
* [Kernel.SpecialForms] Warn if `True`/`False`/`Nil` are used as aliases and \
there is no such alias
* [Macro] Add `Macro.compile_apply/4`
* [Module] Add support for `@nifs` annotation from Erlang/OTP 25
* [Module] Add support for missing `@dialyzer` configuration
* [String] Update to Unicode 15.1.0
* [String] Add `String.replace_invalid/2`
* [Task] Add `:limit` option to `Task.yield_many/2`
#### Logger
* [Logger] Add `Logger.levels/0`
#### Mix
* [mix] Add `MIX_PROFILE` to profile a list of comma separated tasks
* [mix archive.install] Support `--sparse` option
* [mix compile.app] Warn if both `:applications` and `:extra_applications` are used
* [mix compile.elixir] Pass original exception down to diagnostic `:details` \
when possible
* [mix compile.elixir] Optimize scenario where there are thousands of files in \
`lib/` and one of them is changed
* [mix deps.clean] Emit a warning instead of crashing when a dependency cannot \
be removed
* [mix escript.install] Support `--sparse` option
* [mix release] Include `include/` directory in releases
* [mix test] Allow testing multiple file:line at once, such as `mix test \
test/foo_test.exs:13 test/bar_test.exs:27`
### 2. Bug fixes
#### Elixir
* [Code] Keep quotes for atom keys in formatter
* [Code.Fragment] Fix crash in `Code.Fragment.surround_context/2` when \
matching on `->`
* [IO] Raise when using `IO.binwrite/2` on terminated device (mirroring \
`IO.write/2`)
* [Kernel] Do not expand aliases recursively (the alias stored in Macro.Env is \
already expanded)
* [Kernel] Ensure `dbg` module is a compile-time dependency
* [Kernel] Warn when a private function or macro uses `unquote/1` and the \
function/macro itself is unused
* [Kernel] Re-enabled compiler optimizations for top level functions in \
scripts (disabled in v1.14.0 but shouldn't impact most programs)
* [Kernel] Do not define an alias for nested modules starting with `Elixir.` \
in their definition
* [Kernel.ParallelCompiler] Consider a module has been defined in \
`@after_compile` callbacks to avoid deadlocks
* [Macro] Address exception on `Macro.to_string/1` for certain ASTs
* [Path] Lazily evaluate `File.cwd!/0` in `Path.expand/1` and `Path.absname/1`
* [Path] Ensure `Path.relative_to/2` returns a relative path when the given \
argument does not share a common prefix with `cwd`
#### ExUnit
* [ExUnit] Raise on incorrectly dedented doctests
#### IEx
* [IEx.Pry] Fix prying functions with only literals in their body
#### Mix
* [mix archive.install] Restore code paths after `mix archive.install`
* [mix compile] Ensure files with duplicate modules are recompiled whenever \
any of the files change
* [mix compile] Update Mix compiler diagnostics documentation and typespecs to \
match the Elixir compiler behaviour where both lines and columns start from one \
(before it inaccurately said that columns started from zero)
* [mix escript.install] Restore code paths after `mix escript.install`
### 3. Soft deprecations (no warnings emitted)
#### Elixir
* [File] Deprecate `File.stream!(file, options, line_or_bytes)` in favor of \
keeping the options as last argument, as in `File.stream!(file, line_or_bytes, \
options)`
* [Kernel.ParallelCompiler] Deprecate `Kernel.ParallelCompiler.async/1` in \
favor of `Kernel.ParallelCompiler.pmap/2`
* [Path] Deprecate `Path.safe_relative_to/2` in favor of `Path.safe_relative/2`
#### Mix
* [mix compile] Returning a four-element tuple as a position in \
`Mix.Task.Compiler.Diagnostic`
### 4. Hard deprecations
#### Elixir
* [Date] Deprecate inferring a range with negative step, call `Date.range/3` \
with a negative step instead
* [Enum] Deprecate passing a range with negative step on `Enum.slice/2`, give \
`first..last//1` instead
* [Kernel] `~R/.../` is deprecated in favor of `~r/.../`. This is because \
`~R/.../` still allowed escape codes, which did not fit the definition of \
uppercase sigils
* [String] Deprecate passing a range with negative step on `String.slice/2`, \
give `first..last//1` instead
#### ExUnit
* [ExUnit.Formatter] Deprecate `format_time/2`, use `format_times/1` instead
#### Mix
* [mix compile.leex] Require `:leex` to be added as a compiler to run the \
`leex` compiler
* [mix compile.yecc] Require `:yecc` to be added as a compiler to run the \
`yecc` compiler
