# Changelog
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
Each release should have the following subsections, if entries exist, in the
given order: `Breaking`, `Build`, `Deprecated`, `Removed`, `Added`, `Changed`,
`Fixed`, `Security`.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
## [Unreleased]
### Breaking
- We added the backslash escape character (\\) for configuration values. This
means that the literal backslash character now has special meaning in
configuration files, therefore if you want to use it in a value as a literal
backslash, you need to escape it with the backslash escape character. The
parser logs an error if any unescaped backslashes are found in a value. This
affects you only if you are using two consecutive backslashes in a value,
which will now be interpreted as a single literal backslash.
[`#2354`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2354)
- We rewrote our tag parser. This shouldn't break anything, if you experience
any problems, please let us know.
The new parser now gives errors for certain invalid tags where the old parser
would just silently ignore them. Adding extra text to the end of a valid tag
now produces an error. For example, tags like `%{T-a}`, `%{T2abc}`, `%{rfoo}`,
and others will now start producing errors.
This does not affect you unless you are producing your own formatting tags
(for example in a script) and you are using one of these invalid tags.
### Build
- Bump the minimum cmake version to 3.5
- The `BUILD_IPC_MSG` option has been renamed to `BUILD_POLYBAR_MSG`
- Building the documentation is now enabled by default and not just when
`sphinx-build` is found.
- Users can control exactly which targets should be available with the following
cmake options (together with their default value):
- `BUILD_POLYBAR=ON` - Builds the `polybar` executable
- `BUILD_POLYBAR_MSG=ON` - Builds the `polybar-msg` executable
- `BUILD_TESTS=OFF` - Builds the test suite
- `BUILD_DOC=ON` - Builds the documentation
- `BUILD_DOC_HTML=BUILD_DOC` - Builds the html documentation (depends on `BUILD_DOC`)
- `BUILD_DOC_MAN=BUILD_DOC` - Builds the manpages (depends on `BUILD_DOC`)
- `BUILD_CONFIG=ON` - Generates sample config
- `BUILD_SHELL=ON` - Generates shell completion files
- `DISABLE_ALL=OFF` - Disables all above targets by default. Individual
targets can still be enabled explicitly.
- The documentation can no longer be built by directly configuring the `doc`
directory.
- The sample config file is now placed in the `generated-sources` folder inside
whatever folder you invoked `cmake` from instead of in the root folder of the
repository.
- The `POLYBAR_FLAGS` cmake variable can be used to pass extra C++ compiler flags.
### Added
- `internal/memory`: New tokens `%used%`, `%free%`, `%total%`, `%swap_total%`,
`%swap_free%`, and `%swap_used%` that automatically switch between MiB and GiB
when below or above 1GiB.

- `internal/fs`: `format-warn`, `label-warn`, `warn-percentage = 90`
- `internal/memory`: `format-warn`, `label-warn`, `warn-percentage = 90`
- `radius` now affects the bar border as well
([`#1566`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1566))
- Per-corner corner radius with `radius-{bottom,top}-{left,right}`
([`#2294`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2294))

(`module_toggle`, `module_show`, and `module_hide`)
([`#2108`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2108))
- `internal/xworkspaces`: Make the urgent hint persistent
([`#1081`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1081))
- `internal/network`: `interface-type` may be used in place of `interface` to
automatically select a network interface
([`#2025`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2025))

windows per workspace
([`#604`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/604))
- `internal/backlight`: added `use-actual-brightness` option
- Added `wm-restack = generic` option that lowers polybar to the bottom of the stack.

### Changed
- Slight changes to the value ranges the different ramp levels are responsible
for in the cpu, memory, fs, and battery modules. The first and last level are
only used for everything at or below and at and above the edges of the value
range, respectively. The other levels are evenly distributed over the value
range as before.
- `custom/script`: `interval` now defaults to 0 if `tail = true` as per the
documentation.
- `internal/network`:
- Increased precision for upload and download speeds: 0 decimal places for
KB/s (as before), 1 for MB/s and 2 for GB/s.

of spacing is added between the indicator labels, in the xkeyboard module.
