Releases: r-lib/asciicast
asciicast 2.3.1
-
New
show
argument inwrite_svg()
to show the SVG on the screen.
It isTRUE
by default in RStudio. -
play()
now show the output in the viewer pane in RStudio.
asciicast 2.3.0
-
record()
has a new argument:show_output
, to show the output from the
subprocess in real time. -
New SVG theme:
readme
, to be used inREADME.Rmd
(and similar) files on
GitHub. It generates two SVG files, one for light and one for dark mode,
and creates aREADME.md
file that automatically uses the correct one
when viewed on GitHub. -
New SVG theme:
github-dark
.
asciicast 2.2.1
-
New
expect_snapshot_r_process()
function to run a testthat snapshot
test in an asciicast subprocess. -
On Windows asciicast does not error if the patch version of the current
R version is different from the one asciiast was built with. This happens
often when installing asciicast from binaries, and these R versions should
be fully compatible.
asciicast 2.2.0
-
write_html()
now supports ANSI hyperlinks. -
Much better parameterization of asciicast in knitr. You can now set
asciicast parameters via chunk options. Relatedly, the
init_knitr_engine()
does not have anoptions
argument any more.
Set knitr chunk options instead. See theREADME.Rmd
file of the package
or the includedgithub-readme.Rmd
for examples. -
HTML output now works better in roxygen2/Rd.
-
init_knitr_engine()
has aninteractive
argument now, to allow
non-interactive mode. -
asciicast in knitr now caches HTML output much better.
-
asciicast now supports true color ANSI escapes in HTML output (#46).
-
If the
asciicast_html_details
option is set, then asciicast puts the
HTML output in a<details>
tag. -
New
interactive
parameter ofinit_knitr_engine()
allows recording in
non-interactive R sessions. The default is (still)interactive = TRUE
.
asciicast 2.1.0
-
The new
write_html()
function can create a themed HTML snapshot of an
ascii cast. HTML otuput is now the default in pkgdown, for snapshots.
For animations we still need to use SVG files. -
asciicast can now record casts on R installations that do not have an R
shared or static library. -
SVG output now looks correct in Firefox with large fonts (#42).
asciicast 2.0.0
-
Completely new
record()
implementation that uses an embedded R
interpreter in a subprocess. This means that asciicast can now record
on Windows, and the recordings are of much faster and of higher quiality.Another benefit is that simulated typing does not happen in real time,
but recordings are as fast as the script itself, and the simulated typing
(if requested) is added after the recording.It is also possible to record R scripts that are not valid R code.
(These will fail of course, but sometimes that's what you want to show.)record()
does not set theerror
option in the asciicast subprocess
any more, but the output of errors is simply recorded. -
New
record_output()
which returns the recorded output as a character
vector instead of an asciic cast. -
Adding a
#'
to a line omits the simulated typing for that line and the
line will appear in one step. -
New
write_gif()
function to save a cast as a GIF. It needs phantom.js
currently. -
SVG output can have themes now. The package comes with a bunch of
predefined themes, or you can create your own. Seedefault_theme()
. -
knitr options are set temporarily now, and they are restored after the
knitr run. -
The
asciinema_player()
HTML widget now properly sets the height and
width of the player window, using theheight
andwidth
parameters
of the cast. -
record()
now works with script files that end with a comment line (#13). -
The initial R prompt is now not left out when recording a cast.
-
asciinema_player()
now creates an HTML widget that works well on
Firefox as well. -
asciicast is properly tested now, so it should be much more stable.
v1.0.0
First release on CRAN.
