• Allow onCompile method to be defined in Brunch config file for triggering custom project-specific functionality after every compile cycle
• Default settings updates:
  • Ignore directories that start with underscore (to match filename handling)
  • Fix heroku issues

Brunch 1.7.13 (9 December 2013)

• Re-release of 1.7.8 because of npm code publishing bug.

Brunch 1.7.8 (10 October 2013)

NOTE: Re-published on 16 October 2013 due to npm bug. If installed prior to this date, it will actually run as if it is 1.7.6.

• Assets dotfile ignore exception to enable copying of .rewrite files.

Brunch 1.7.7 (28 September 2013)

NOTE: Re-published on 16 October 2013 due to npm bug. If installed prior to this date, it will actually run as if it is 1.7.6.

• Fixed absolute paths exposal for plugin includes in source maps.
• Workers are now shut down on brunch re-watch.

Brunch 1.7.6 (20 September 2013)

• Fixed overriding config.files in custom environments.

Brunch 1.7.5 (17 September 2013)

• Added experimental workers support.
• Fixed custom enviroment bug.

Brunch 1.7.4 (29 August 2013)

• Quick fix for --optimized building.

Brunch 1.7.3 (28 August 2013)

• Added -e, --env param to build and watch that will replace --config in 1.8. env is a dead-simple way of specifying your work environment. You can use --env production and then specify config.overrides.production, all properties of which will override default config. You may use more than one --env.
• Source maps for languages which don't support source maps (“identity source maps”) now generated from compiled source (js) instead of original source (coffee)
• Deprecated --optimize (use --env production or --production) and --config options.

Brunch 1.7.2 (19 August 2013)

• Fixed issues on windows with copying many assets.

Brunch 1.7.0 (23 July 2013)

• Added source maps support! Big thanks to Pierre Lepers and Elan Shanker.
• Added Twitter Bower package manager support. The support is very different from modern builders. You don’t need to specify concat order or list all files, brunch will do that for you automatically. But, some packages don’t specify which files they include and on which packages they depend. You may specify overrides property in root bower.json, see read-components docs
• Added proper AMD support. Just include almond.js with your AMD app and brunch will do require.js optimizer job for you.
• Added ability to use multiple compilator plugins for one file.

• Added detailed messages of what was done to compiled in logs.
• Removed files are now actually removed from compiled output.

• Changed brunch test -f REGEX option to -g / --grep for consistency with Mocha.

Brunch 1.5.0 (2 January 2013)

• Added ability to wrap files in sourceURLs which simplifies debugging a lot. Disabled by default in non-production mode, but can be disabled with config.modules.addSourceURLs = false.
• Added -f REGEX, --filter REGEX option to brunch test.
• --minify (-m) command line option was changed to --optimize (-o). The previous version is deprecated and will be removed in the future. This is made for plugins that will do optimizations of you application that are not minifications.
• config.modules.wrapper now accepts full file path as first argument, instead of sanitized.
• Debugging mode syntax was changed to standardized DEBUG=brunch:* brunch <command>.
• Fixed bug when process didn’t return code "1" on compilation errors.

• brunch new now allowed to take current working directory (.) or any existing directory as first argument.
• Assets are now affected by conventions.ignored too.
• Fixed linting bug.

Brunch 1.4.0 (4 August 2012)

• Added new phenomenally simplified scaffolder:
  1. Create generators/ directory in your brunch application (directory name is customizable by config.paths.generators).
  2. Create generator directory there with generator.json and files that will be generated.
• Added conventions:
  • Conventions are configurable via config.conventions[name]. Convention can be a RegExp or Function.
  • assets convention: all files in directories that named as assets (default value) will be copied to public path directly.
  • vendor All files in directories that named as vendor (default value) won't be wrapped in modules.
  • tests convention: all files that end with _test.<extension> (default value) are considered as test files and will be loaded automatically with brunch test.
  • ignored convention: all files that start with _ (default value) are considered as partial files and won't be compiled. Useful for Stylus / Sass languages. This replaces functionality of config.paths.ignored.
• Added AMD support by allowing more flexibility with file wrapping:
  • config.modules can be an object of:
    • config.modules.wrapper - string, boolean or function, defines how to wrap files in app directory in modules.
    • config.modules.definition - string, boolean or function, defines what to add on top of every file.
• Added linting support. Linting is a static analysis of code. Example tools for this are JSHint, CSSLint etc. The lint API is plugin.lint(data, path, callback). One file can use more than one linter.
• Added config option that disables growl / libnotify notifications. Usage: config.notifications = false.
• Added support for Mac OS X Mountain Lion notification center. You'll need to place terminal-notifier.app to /Applications/ to get it work.
• Removed support for:
  • config.files[lang].defaultExtension. Brunch will automatically detect extension from your generator file name.
  • config.framework, config.generators. It's not needed because all generators are local to your application and because brunch now has generators/ directory.
  • Array type of paths.vendor / paths.assets. They're replaced by conventions.
• If any error happened in brunch build, it will exit with error code 1 instead of 0.
• Fixed commonjs require_definition in <IE9.

Brunch 1.3.4 (7 July 2012)

• Fixed bug with too fast compilations.

Brunch 1.3.3 (29 June 2012)

• Added node.js 0.8 and 0.9 support.
• jsdom, required for brunch test can now be installed once for all apps via npm install -g jsdom. You'll need to have its parent dir in NODE_MODULES env variable.

Brunch 1.3.2 (27 June 2012)

• Fixed brunch test on new projects.

Brunch 1.3.1 (22 June 2012)

• Config can now be in any language you use in app (e.g. livescript).
• Added --reporter (-r) option to brunch test which allows to choose Mocha reporter.
• Made require definition much easier for debugging.

Brunch 1.3.0 (19 June 2012)

• Brunch with Chaplin is now the default application skeleton, that will be created on brunch new <app>. Old one is still available with brunch new <app> -s github://brunch/simple-coffee-skeleton. Chaplin is an awesome set of classes on top of Backbone.js that makes making big webapps very simple.
• Added testing support (thanks to Andreas Gerstmayr):
  • Mocha is used as test engine. It's a feature-rich, flexible and fun.
  • brunch test (or brunch t) is used to run all tests in CLI env.
  • test directory is now watched. Add 'javascripts/tests.js': /^test/ to config.javascripts.joinTo in config.coffee to compile them.
• Improved command line API:
  • Added github://user/repo skeleton address schema support to brunch new.
  • Debug mode now has logger namespaces. Usage: BRUNCH_DEBUG=<ns> brunch <command> where <ns> is: watcher, writer, *.
• Improved file watcher:
  • Vim backup files are now ignored by watcher.
  • Fixed watching of non-compiled files in app.
• Improved config API:
  • Added support for config.server.base, which determines base URL from which to serve the app. The default value is empty string.
  • config.paths.ignored now doesn't need to check versus if file is config.coffee or package.json, it does it automatically in brunch code.
  • Fixed config.paths.ignored on windows.
  • config.paths.vendor is now an array, but it will be soon deprecated.
• Changed onCompile plugin API. Now it receives an array of fs_utils.GeneratedFile. This makes it very rich and allows to build smarter reloaders. For example, the ones that reload browser tabs only on stylesheet change.
• Semicolon is now added after every compiled vendor library because of some libs that break with brunch. Hello, Zepto!
• Styles in vendor directory are now sorted correctly, before app files.
• Only generated files that depend on changed in current compilation files are written now. Before, brunch was writing all files each time.

Brunch 1.2.2 (24 May 2012)

• Brunch now outputs compilation time.
• Assets are copied one-by-one on change, instead of copying the whole assets directory. This improves watcher performance by about 25%+.
• Disabled caching in built-in webserver.
• Improved brunch generate:
  • Added --plural option to brunch generate. Plural version of generator name is used in controllers and collections. By default, brunch does pluralizing instead of you.
  • Added collection generator to brunch generate. It is not included in brunch g scaffold, because it's not needed most of the time.
  • Added collectionView generator to brunch generate for Chaplin users. It doesn't generate corresponding template.
• If package.json or config.coffee were removed during the watching, brunch process will exit.
• Maximum time between changes of two files that will be considered as a one compilation changed from 100ms to 65ms.

Brunch 1.2.1 (12 May 2012)

• Fixed persistence of process with brunch watch (without server).
• Fixed watching of files on windows.

Brunch 1.2.0 (12 May 2012)

• Greatly improved brunch generate:
  • User can now define his own generators in config.generators.
  • Default generators are now:
    • controllerTest, modelTest, viewTest, template, style
    • controller (generates controllerTest too)
    • model (generates modelTest too)
    • view (generates template, style & viewTest too)
    • scaffold (generates controller, model, view and their generators)
• Improved config API:
  • Added paths.ignored param that redefines paths ignored by brunch.
  • paths.assets can now be an array of paths.
• Improved plugin API:
  • Added support for onCompile method. It allows great & simple live browser reloaders.
• Added pushState support to the built-in webserver.
• Files that end with two underscores (e.g. a.js__) are now ignored by watcher and compiler because they're created by some IDEs.
• Files in vendor directory are now sorted correctly, before app files.

Brunch 1.1.2 (20 April 2012)

  • Added paths.app, paths.root, paths.assets, paths.test, paths.vendor.
  • Scripts that are not in the config[lang].order are now compiled in alphabetical order instead of random.
  • Made optional presence of almost all config params.
• Improved module loader:
  • Real exceptions are now thrown instead of strings when module wasn't found.
  • Fixed an issue when loader cached same modules more than once.
  • Fixed an issue when loader loaded non-existing modules.
• Greatly improved default coffee skeleton architecture:
  • Moved all collections to models.
  • Replaced routers with lib/router.
  • No more global variable for application bootstrapper, it can be loaded with require 'application'.
