Changed:

• Updated third-party dependencies

[v0.14.0 - 2023-06-11]

Completely rewritten in Go. Configuration format is backwards-compatible with the rust version, but the CLI makes no claims of backwards compatibility.

Added:

• Helix Editor support
• Kitty support
• Custom application support
• FreeBSD support
• Rewrote docs site, now hosted on https://thcon.app
• thcon listen subcommand

Removed:

• Sublime Text support
  • ST4 has been out for long enough that maintaining support for ST3 is unnecessary
• Visual Studio Code support
  • VSCode supports OS theme syncing on all major platforms since no later than March 2022
• Atom support
  • Atom was sunset in December 2022
• The thcon-listen binary is no longer included during installation
  • Use the thcon listen subcommand instead

[v0.13.2 - 2021-11-06]

Changed:

• Sublime Text is now disabled by default, since ST4 is able to sync with system dark-mode

[v0.13.1 - 2021-11-05]

Fixed:

• Systems without a VSCode settings.json no longer report errors when switching themes

[v0.13.0 - 2021-09-18]

Added:

• Per-application timing is printed when run with -vvv (trace-level verbosity)
• Web-based documentation hosted at https://thcon.vercel.app

Fixed:

• No longer requires thcon.toml to exist on-disk for thcon to run

Changed:

• dark and light are now positional arguments instead of subcommands, which better represents how thcon should be used.
• Verbose output (-v through -vvv) is a bit more pretty

[v0.12.0 - 2021-06-29]

Added:

• Terminal.app profile switching

Fixed:

• Documented disabled property in app schemas (supported since v0.10.0)
• Corrected documented KDE Konsole section name in thcon.toml. konsole was always supported, but the documentation was wrong

[v0.11.0 - 2021-06-28]

Added:

• GTK theme switching
• GNOME Shell user theme switching

[v0.10.0 - 2021-06-20]

Added:

• Allow apps to be disabled with disabled = true in their config section
• Establish default values for Atom, KDE Plasma, Sublime Text, and Visual Studio Code

[v0.9.0 - 2021-03-30]

Added:

• Support for Atom via an app-side plugin
• Writes vim/nvim rc file to disk so new instances use previously-applied settings. Requires thcon.vim v0.4.0 (at least commit 39b6d82 (v0.4.0, 2021-03-24))

Removed

• Build-time dependency on indicatif crate

[v0.8.0 - 2021-03-07]

Added:

• New --no-replace CLI arg to thcon-listen, to exit cleanly when pre-existing sockets are detected

Changed:

• Moved src/main.rs to src/bin/thcon.rs to better align with thcon-listen binary

[v0.7.0 - 2021-03-06]

Added:

• New thcon-listen binary for use with app-specific plugins

Changed:

• vim: Use thcon-listen for IPC transport
• iterm2: Use thcon-listen for IPC transport

[v0.6.0] - 2021-02-12

Added:

• Support for changing Sublime Text 3 color schemes and themes

[v0.5.1] - 2021-02-10

Removed:

• Removed progress bar with and without --verbose. thcon tends to run fast enough to not warrant a progress bar.

Fixed:

• No longer panics when thcon.toml doesn't exist or is invalid TOML
• No longer panics when no or invalid subcommand provided at commandline

Changed:

• Moved help subcommand to the bottom of subcommand list in --help

[v0.5.0] - 2021-02-08

Added:

• Support for changing iTerm2 profiles

Changed:

• Updated dependencies

[v0.4.3] - 2021-01-23

Fixed:

• VSCode: preserve comma in settings.json if one is present
• Silence unused import during build on non-mac platforms

[v0.4.2] - 2021-01-22

Changed:

• macOS: thcon now reads its config file from ~/.config/thcon/thcon.toml instead of ~/Library/Application Support/thcon/thcon.toml
• macOS: Support thcon.vim 0.2.0 (named pipes are written to ~/.local/share/thcon/ instead of ~/Library/Application Support/thcon/)

[v0.4.1] - 2021-01-19

Fixed:

• thcon can once again be successfully installed on macOS

[v0.4.0] - 2021-01-18

Added:

• --verbose/-v argument to enable verbose logging of re-themed and skipped (unconfigured) applications
• Configuration documentation for KDE Plasma
• Configuration documentation for KDE Konsole

Fixed:

• Stop logging errors for unconfigured applications (silently skips unconfigured apps instead)
• Don't require apps to be listed individually on CLI (try all apps by default with thcon dark / thcon light)
• Suppress spurious error messages when switching plasma themes
• Explicitly listed thcon.toml section to use for vim/nvim
• Lots of lint failures

Changed:

• The plasma app (KDE Plasma) is now only available on non-macOS, non-Windows platforms

[v0.3.0] - 2021-01-18

Removed:

• Themeable::toggle(), which was previously used to implicitly switch from light to dark (or vice-versa, depending on the current state) has been removed. It may return in a future release, but improving app support is more important right now.

Added:

• vim & neovim theme switching via thcon.vim
• This changelog

Changed:

• Started documenting per-app configuration direction in crates to enable serving via https://docs.rs

[v0.2.0] - 2020-10-27

Added:

• macOS global theme switching
• alacritty color switching
• First set of per-app documentation (may not be the correct place for those to live long-term though?)

Fixes:

• Allow installation on systems that don't support DBus
• Don't crash if ~/.config/thcon/thcon.toml doesn't exist (helpful on macOS, where there's no configuration required to switch between light and dark modes)
