0.10.0

Release Notes

• New assignment-style option to enforce a preferred assignment operator, with the following values:

  • "arrow": Use <-. This is the default, aligning Air further with the tidyverse style guide.

  • "equal": Use =.

  • "preserve": Assignment operators are preserved as is.

  Note that prior to this option, Air's behavior was implicitly "preserve". Set "preserve" or "equal" directly if you prefer either of those behaviors (#502).

• Fixed an issue where # fmt: skip file in a file with CRLF line endings would result in \r\n line endings getting converted to \r\r\n (#498).

• Updated bundled tree-sitter-r, which comes with a few small fixes:

  • Hexadecimal constants with decimals are no longer parsed as two separate values (#495).

  • .{digit} (like .1) is now correctly parsed as a double rather than as an identifier. This means that things like function(.1 = 1) {}, where .1 is expected to be an identifier but not a double, now correctly fails to parse (#496).

  • else is no longer consumed as eagerly in some special cases (#499).

0.9.0

Release Notes

• New --stdin-file-path <path> to read from stdin. Read more about this on the website (#471).

• Air's behavior relating to directly supplied files and the exclude / default-exclude options has changed to be safer by default. Previously, air format cpp11.R would format cpp11.R, even though it was part of the set of default-excludes, because we assumed that a direct request from a user like this could override these rules. However, tools such as pre-commit or IDEs that format via stdin will blindly call air format on any file that changes and have no knowledge of whether that file should be excluded or not. For this reason, we now exclude files that match exclude or default-exclude patterns even if they are directly supplied on the command line.

  Similarly, air format my.qmd no longer attempts to format my.qmd. This file is not excluded by exclude or default-exclude, but is also not included by our internal set of default-includes, which currently only accept .R and .r files. Rather than blindly trying to format this directly supplied file, Air now ignores it (#476).

• New --force flag to bypass all exclusion and inclusion rules and force a file or folder to be formatted. This flag applies recursively, meaning that all files within a forced folder will also be forcibly formatted, regardless of file type. This flag should rarely be needed, but serves as an escape hatch for cases like air format r-code.txt --force, which is no longer automatically formatted by Air as of this release due to the change mentioned above (#478).

• New air generate-shell-completion <SHELL> hidden command that emits a script to stdout that generates shell completions. Supports bash, zsh, fish, powershell, and elvish (#477, @salim-b).

  For zsh, run the following to add to your .zshrc:

  echo 'eval "$(air generate-shell-completion zsh)"' >> ~/.zshrc

  For powershell, run the following to add to your profile:

  if (!(Test-Path -Path $PROFILE)) {
    New-Item -ItemType File -Path $PROFILE -Force
  }
  Add-Content -Path $PROFILE -Value '(& air generate-shell-completion powershell) | Out-String | Invoke-Expression'

  Then restart your shell and type air <tab> to see completions.

0.8.0

Release Notes

• Added support for table formatting of tribble() and fcase() calls (#113).
  You can also opt into table formatting for any other call with the # fmt: table comment directive, or the table TOML option. See also the default-table option to turn off Air's defaults for tribble() and fcase().

  Note: This feature is experimental. We'd be grateful for any feedback!

• Formulas are now treated like assignment operators rather than like comparison operators, which means they now left-align expression chains on the right-hand side of the formula, respect persistent line breaks, and never automatically break around the ~ operator itself (#336, #402).

  With model formulas:

  # Before:
  y ~
    year +
      age +
      size
  
  # After:
  y ~
    year +
    age +
    size

  With complex case_when() calls:

  # Before:
  case_when(
    x %in% c(1, 2) ~
      {
        this + complex + thing
      },
    x %in% c(3, 4) ~
      {
        that + thing
      }
  )
  
  # After:
  case_when(
    x %in% c(1, 2) ~ {
      this + complex + thing
    },
    x %in% c(3, 4) ~ {
      that + thing
    }
  )

0.7.1

Release Notes

• We now recommend using Tombi for air.toml autocompletion and validation instead of Even Better TOML. Tombi is easily installable from the VS Code Marketplace, the OpenVSX Marketplace, as a Zed extension, or using some other supported installation method. We've improved on our air.toml configuration documentation to help tombi provide the best air.toml editing experience (#371).

0.7.0

Release Notes

• Autobracing is a new feature applied to if statements, for loops, while loops, repeat loops, and function definitions. This feature will automatically add {} around the body of these code elements in certain cases to maximize readability, consistency, and portability (#225, #334).

  For example:

  if (condition)
    a
  
  # Becomes:
  if (condition) {
    a
  }

  fn <- function(
    a, b
  ) a + b
  
  # Becomes:
  fn <- function(
    a,
    b
  ) {
    a + b
  }

  Single line if statements and function definitions are still allowed in certain contexts:

  list(a = if (is.null(x)) NA else x)
  
  map(xs, function(x) x + 1)

• Empty {} are no longer ever expanded (#43).

  This allows for syntax like:

  dummy <- function() {}
  
  while (waiting()) {}
  
  switch(x, a = {}, b = 2)
  
  function(
    expr = {}
  ) {
    this_first()
    expr
  }

• Binary exponents are now supported in hexadecimal constants (#357).

• NULL is now allowed in function call argument name position (#357).

• Fixed a case where some valid raw strings would cause a parse error (#255).

0.5.0

Release Notes

• Added support for a skip field in air.toml (#273).

  This is an extension of the # fmt: skip comment feature that provides a single place for you to list functions you never want formatting for. For example:

  skip = ["tribble", "graph_from_literal"]

  This skip configuration would skip formatting for these function calls, even without a # fmt: skip comment:

  tribble(
    ~x, ~y,
     1,  2,
     3,  4
  )
  
  igraph::graph_from_literal(A +-+ B +---+ C ++ D + E)

  We expect this to be useful when working with packages that provide domain specific languages that come with their own unique formatting conventions.

• Fixed an issue where air.toml settings were not being applied to the correct R files (#294).
