# Infoboxer's change log

## 0.4.0 (2021-05-30)

* A cluster of bugs found in #81 fixed:
  * Empty comment (`<!---->`) now processed properly;
  * Templates that are implicitly inside tables (put on a separate row) now always create
    an implicit `<TableCell>`
  * Heading after non-closed table closes the table implicitly instead of being inserted
    into the last cell.
* Drop Ruby < 2.6, and support 3.0 instead.

PS: Yeah, year-and-almost-half is much better than 2 years between releases, I guess.. And let's call
it non-patch version then.

## 0.3.3 (2020-02-09)

* Fixed table captions handling (thanks @robfors for reporting)

PS: Funny that this small bugfix release is exactly two years after the previous one :(

## 0.3.2 (2018-02-09)

* Updated MediaWiktory to finally turn on gzip encoding of responses;
* Utility methods to expose some internals (`MediaWiki#api`, `Infoboxer#url_for(:wikipedia)`,
  `Page#namespaces`, `Template#named_variables` and so on);
* Fix parsing of lowercase `file:` links in `<gallery>`.

## 0.3.1 (2017-12-04)

* (Experimental) new representation of templates, much more readable;
* More access to querying process and underlying `MediaWiktory::Wikipedia::Query`;
* Finally, `limit` parameter for multi-page queries (category, search, prefixsearch).

## 0.3.1.pre (2017-09-16)

* Introduce interwiki links following (and proper handling of interwikis, in general);
* Add `<gallery>` tag support;
* Introduce `Navigation::Selector#===`;
* Much more `Enumerable`'s methods supported by `Nodes`;
* Lot of small simplifications, cleanups and bugfixes.

TBH, it should be 0.4.0 or more, but it would be a shame to change versions so fast :) So, at least
until it is `-pre`, let it be 0.3.1.

## 0.3.0 (2017-07-23)

* Change logic of navigation through templates; now templates contents aren't hidden from global
  lookups. While sometimes leading to less impressive demos, this approach proved itself to be more
  useful for production.
* Introduce WikiPath query language as an alternative to series of lookups.

## 0.2.8 (2017-05-11)

* Switch to MediaWiktory 0.1.0 + some subsequent cleanup of internal logic;
* Additional `prop:` param for `MediaWiki#get`, `#get_h`, and `#raw`, allowing to fetch arbitrary
  page properties.

## 0.2.7 (2016-09-18)

* Fix `Math` node rendering to text (#68);
* Fix consequtive apostrophes problem (#69);
* Fix math parsing in templates (#70).

## 0.2.6 (2016-06-27)

_0.2.5 was erroneously released without any changes._

* Fix of `<math>` tags parsing (#66)

## 0.2.4 (2016-04-16)

* `MediaWiki#get_h` works correctly with several synonymous pages now;
* `get` and `get_h` work better when some of required titles are downcase;
* Travis compatibility check restored.

## 0.2.3 (2016-03-02)

New and enchanced features:
* more useful templates (quick-n-dirty sometimes, but prettier output for
  typical cases);
* Caching of wikiobjects, so for several calls to `Infoboxer.wp` it would
  be only one API call for wiki metainformation;
* `MediaWiki#get` now preserves order of pages (page list would be in
  the same order as requested titles);
* `MediaWiki#get_h` to receive hash of `title => page object` (useful
  to know which titles have been no pages for and better control on
  redirects).

Fixes:
* `Image` node equality fixed.

## 0.2.2 (2016-01-03)

Fixes:
* more sophisticated table parsing;
* empty `<nowiki/>` is parsed properly;
* inline unclosed markup inside wikilinks works;
* `MediaWiki::Traits` can now be continued in several places.

## 0.2.1 (2015-12-21)

* `infoboxer` binary properly registered.

## 0.2.0 (2015-12-21)

* MediaWiki backend changed to (our own handcrafted)
  [mediawiktory](https://github.com/molybdenum-99/mediawiktory);
* Added page lists fetching like `MediaWiki#category(categoryname)`,
  `MediaWiki#search(search_phrase)`;
* `MediaWiki#get` now can fetch any number of pages at once (it was only
  50 in previous versions);
* `bin/infoboxer` console added for quick experimenting;
* `Template#to_h` added for quick information extraction;
* many small bugfixes and enchancements.

## 0.1.2.1 (2015-12-04)

* Small bug with newlines in templates fixed.

## 0.1.2 (2015-08-18)

Aaaaand, rrrrrelease it into the wilde!

* `ImageCaption` class added;
* Smallest refactorings;
* More documentation fixes.


## 0.1.1 (2015-08-11)

Basically, preparing for wider release!

* Small refactorings;
* Documentation fixes.

## 0.1.0 (2015-08-07)

Initial (ok, I know it's typically called 0.0.1, but here's work of
three monthes, numerous documentations and examples and so on... so, let
it be 0.1.0).
