Changelog

[0.5.6] - 2025-11-17

Added

• Official Debian (.deb) package generation using cargo-deb.
  A .deb package is now automatically built, signed, and included in every release.
  This update addresses Issue #79 — “Provide a .deb package”.

Changed

• Updated CI pipeline to integrate .deb production on Linux (ubuntu-latest).
• Improved artifact handling and release asset organization across platforms.

Fixed

• Ensured consistent SHA256 and GPG signature generation for all package formats.

[0.5.5] - 2025-11-06

Added

• Support for multiple fortune files via the repeatable --file <PATH> option.
  Example:

  rfortune --file ~/fortunes/dev --file ~/fortunes/humor

• New configuration key fortune_files (list). When populated, it takes priority over default_file.
• Automatic configuration migration: if fortune_files is missing or empty, it is initialized with the value of
  default_file.
• Unified JSON-based quote cache shared across multiple fortune files.
• Intelligent no-repeat mechanism: prevents showing the same quote twice in a row
  from the same fortune file.
• Informational log message showing the active configuration directory during startup.
• Advisory file locking using the fs2 crate to protect concurrent access to the shared JSON cache (
  last_quotes.json).
• A dedicated integration test tests/cache_tests.rs to verify save/load roundtrip for the cache using a sandboxed
  application directory.

Changed

• The function app_dir() now provides a consistent and reliable fallback when dirs::data_dir() returns None (e.g.
  in
  CI or headless environments).
  • macOS → $HOME/Library/Application Support/rfortune
  • Linux → $HOME/.local/share/rfortune
• Improved cross-platform consistency for configuration and cache directories.
• Fixed inconsistent cache path resolution caused by incorrect app_dir() usage on Linux/macOS.
• Extracted duplicated cache directory creation logic into a new helper function ensure_cache_dir(), now used by both
  save_last_cache() and save_last_cache_json() for more reliable cache writes.
• Implemented atomic writes for the JSON cache store: writes now go to a temporary file in the same directory and are
  replaced via rename. On Windows the code attempts a remove+rename fallback to cover older semantics that may prevent
  overwrites.
• Introduced open_and_lock() helper to centralize file opening and locking logic (DRY).
• Switched internal cache APIs to use anyhow::Result for richer error context.
• Unified cache path resolution to consistently use config::app_dir().
• Added fs2 and anyhow dependencies in Cargo.toml.

Fixed

• Removed unused helper save_last_cache_json and cleaned up duplicate cache initialization logic.
• Ensure the cache write path releases the file lock and closes the handle before attempting rename/remove (fixes
  Windows "file in use" errors during replacement).
• Make app_dir() test override re-entrant so tests can set a sandboxed app directory per test run (replaced
  OnceLock<PathBuf> with OnceLock<Mutex<Option<PathBuf>>>).
• Make tests robust for parallel CI runs by using unique sandbox directories (timestamp + pid) and ensuring the fortune
  source file exists before writing cache (fixes intermittent test failures on CI/Windows).

Removed

• Deprecated single-file print_random() function replaced by multi-file logic.

[0.5.3] - 2025-11-05

Fixed

• Added interactive check when rFortune is launched without an existing configuration directory:
  • If run in an interactive terminal, the user is asked to confirm initialization (Initialize rFortune now? [Y/n]).
  • If run in a non-interactive context (script, CI, etc.), initialization proceeds automatically.
• Prevents unintended directory creation and improves transparency during the first launch.

Changed

• Initialization flow is now clearer and reports actions through ConsoleLog messages.

[0.5.2] - 2025-11-04

Added

• New ConsoleLog utility for rich, colorized console output with Unicode symbols:
  • ℹ info() – Informational messages
  • ✅ ok() – Successful operations
  • ⚠️ warn() – Warnings and recoverable issues
  • ❌ ko() – Errors and critical failures
• Integrated ConsoleLog throughout configuration, cache, and file management commands for consistent CLI feedback.
• New subcommand config edit for editing the configuration file directly from the terminal:
  • rfortune config edit → opens rfortune.conf using the system’s default text editor.
  • rfortune config edit --editor <name|path> → opens it with a specific editor (e.g. vi, nano, code).
• Automatic editor detection logic:
  • Checks $VISUAL and $EDITOR environment variables.
  • Falls back to nano on macOS/Linux and notepad on Windows.
• Integrated colored console messages (ConsoleLog) for clear feedback during editing.

Changed

• Configuration filename renamed from config.yaml → rfortune.conf for better clarity and platform
  consistency.
• Updated initialization logic to automatically migrate existing config.yaml to the new format (backup saved as
  config.yaml.bak).
• Unified editor behavior across platforms for a consistent CLI experience.
• Improved user feedback when creating or editing the configuration file.

Fixed

• Improved user feedback during config init, file init, and cache clear operations to prevent duplicate or missing
  log messages.

[0.5.1] - 2025-10-27

Added

• Embedded Windows application icon (res/rFortune.ico) directly into the executable.
  • Implemented using the winres build dependency.
  • The icon is now visible in Windows Explorer and taskbar.
• New res/ directory introduced for graphical assets (SVG, PNG, ICO).

Changed

• Build process updated to automatically compile and embed Windows resources during cargo build --release.

Notes

• The .res file generated during build is temporary and not stored in the repository.

[v0.5.0] - 2025-10-04

🔧 Refactoring

• Split CLI definition into a dedicated cli.rs module
• Added a new commands.rs module to handle subcommand actions (config init, file init, cache clear)
• Extracted configuration logic from utils.rs into a new config.rs module
• Simplified main.rs to only parse CLI input and dispatch commands

✨ CLI Improvements

• Introduced subcommands:
  • config init → initialize the configuration file
  • file init → create a sample default fortune file (rfortune.dat)
  • cache clear → clear the cache directory
• Enhanced --help output with a detailed long_about description and usage examples

✅ Misc

• Clearer module boundaries (cli, commands, config, utils, loader)
• Improved maintainability and readability of the codebase

• Added tests for reading/writing cache and ensuring uniqueness of quotes
• Introduced --clear-cache flag to manually delete the entire cache directory
