v0.2.1

Dark mode support has landed! Thanks to @vfosnar for such a substaintial first-time contribution to D2. Only one dark theme option accompanies the support, so if you have a dark theme you like, please feel free to submit into D2!

D2 is now usable in non-Latin languages (and emojis!), as the font-measuring accounts for multi-byte characters. Thanks @bo-ku-ra for keeping this top of mind.

D2 0.2.0 vs 0.2.1:

Sketch mode's subtle hand-drawn texture adapts to background colors. Previously the streaks were too subtle on lighter backgrounds and too prominent on darker ones.

This release also fixes a number of non-trivial layout bugs made in v0.2.0, and has better error messages.

Features 🚀

• Dark theme support! See docs. #613
• Many non-Latin languages (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Korean) are usable now that multi-byte characters are measured correctly. #817
• Dimensions can be set on containers (layout engine dependent). #845

Improvements 🧹

• Sketch mode's subtle hand-drawn texture adapts to background colors. #613
• Improves label legibility for dagre containers by stopping container edges early if they would run into the label. #880
• Cleaner watch mode logs without timestamps. #830
• Remove duplicate success logs in watch mode. #830
• CLI reports when a feature is incompatible with layout engine, instead of silently ignoring. #845
• near key set to direct parent or ancestor throws an appropriate error message. #851
• Dimensions and positions are able to be set from API. #853

Bugfixes ⛑️

• Fixes edge case where layouts with dagre show a connection from the bottom side of shapes being slightly disconnected from the shape. #820
• Bounding boxes weren't accounting for icons placed on the boundaries. #879
• Sequence diagrams using special characters in object IDs could cause rendering bugs. #856
• Fixes rare compiler bug when using underscores in edges to create objects across containers. #824
• Fixes rare possibility of rendered connections being hidden or cut off. #828
• Creating nested children within sql_table and class shapes are now prevented (caused confusion when accidentally done). #834
• Fixes graph deserialization bug. #837
• steps with non-map fields could cause panics. #783
