Changes

1.3.1

  • Export GenericParseRecord and getRecord{,PureWith}

1.3.0

  • BREAKING CHANGE: New metavar method for ParseField class
    • This field simplifies customizing ParseField instances
      • Now you usually only need to override metavar now or possibly also readField, whereas the default behavior for parseField should work more often
    • This is only a breaking change for data types that use the default implementation of ParseField but do not derive Typeable
    • You can migrate existing code that doesn’t compile by just explicitly specifying what the metavar field should be
