  • New features:

  • API changes:
    • Introduced Route functionality for simpler management of static routes.
      • Removed buildHtmlMulti , buildHtml , readSource functions and Source type.
    • Introduced Rib.Shake.forEvery to run a Shake action over a pattern of files when they change.

    • MMark.parse and Pandoc.parse now automatically append path to ribInputDir and do not return Either.
    • Added MMark.parseWith (and parsePureWith ), to specify a custom list of mmark extensions
