Releases: commercialhaskell/stack
v1.2.0
See https://haskellstack.org for installation and upgrade instructions.
Release notes:
-
On many Un*x systems, Stack can now be installed with a simple
one-liner:wget -qO- https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh
-
The fix for
#2175
entails that stack must perform a full clone of a large Git repo of
Hackage meta-information. The total download size is about 200 MB.
Please be aware of this when upgrading your stack installation. -
If you use Mac OS X, you may want to delay upgrading to macOS Sierra as there
are reports of GHC panics when building some packages (including Stack
itself). See #2577 -
This version of Stack does not build on ARM or PowerPC systems (see
store#37). Please stay with
version 1.1.2 for now on those architectures. This will be rectified soon! -
We are now releasing a
statically linked Stack binary for 64-bit Linux.
Please try it and let us know if you run into any trouble on your platform. -
We are planning some changes to our Linux releases, including dropping our
Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, and Fedora package repositories and switching to
statically linked binaries. We would value your feedback in
#2534.
Major changes:
- Add
stack hoogle
command.
#55 - Support for absolute file path in
url
field ofsetup-info
or--ghc-bindist
- Add support for rendering GHCi scripts targeting different GHCi like
applications
#2457
Behavior changes:
- Remove
stack ide start
andstack ide load-targets
commands.
#2178 - Support .buildinfo files in
stack ghci
.
#2242 - Support -ferror-spans syntax in GHC error messages.
- Avoid unpacking ghc to
/tmp
#996 - The Linux
gmp4
GHC bindist is no longer considered a full-fledged GHC
variant and can no longer be specified using theghc-variant
option,
and instead is treated more like a slightly different platform.
Other enhancements:
- Use the
store
package for binary serialization of most caches. - Only require minor version match for Docker stack exe.
This way, we can make patch releases for version bounds and similar
build issues without needing to upload new binaries for Docker. - Stack/Nix: Passes the right ghc derivation as an argument to the
shell.nix
when a
customshell.nix
is used
See #2243 - Stack/Nix: Sets
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
so packages using C libs for Template Haskell can work
(See e.g. this HaskellR issue) - Parse CLI arguments and configuration files into less permissive types,
improving error messages for bad inputs.
#2267 - Add the ability to explictly specify a gcc executable.
#593 - Nix: No longer uses LTS mirroring in nixpkgs. Gives to nix-shell a derivation
likehaskell.compiler.ghc801
See #2259 - Perform some subprocesses during setup concurrently, slightly speeding up most
commands. #2346 stack setup
no longer unpacks to the system temp dir on posix systems.
#996stack setup
detects libtinfo6 and ncurses6 and can download alternate GHC
bindists #257
#2302.stack setup
detects Linux ARMv7 downloads appropriate GHC bindist
#2103- Custom
stack
binaries list dependency versions in output for--version
.
See #2222
and #2450. - Use a pretty printer to output dependency resolution errors.
#1912 - Remove the
--os
flag
#2227 - Add 'netbase' and 'ca-certificates' as dependency for .deb packages.
#2293. - Add
stack ide targets
command. - Enhance debug logging with subprocess timings.
- Pretty-print YAML parse errors
#2374 - Clarify confusing
stack setup
output
#2314 - Delete
Stack.Types
multimodule to improve build times
#2405 - Remove spurious newlines in build logs
#2418 - Interpreter: Provide a way to hide implicit packages
#1208 - Check executability in exec lookup
#2489
Bug fixes:
- Fix cabal warning about use of a deprecated cabal flag
#2350 - Support most executable extensions on Windows
#2225 - Detect resolver change in
stack solver
#2252 - Fix a bug in docker image creation where the wrong base image was
selected
#2376 - Ignore special entries when unpacking tarballs
#2361 - Fixes src directory pollution of
style.css
andhighlight.js
with GHC 8's
haddock #2429 - Handle filepaths with spaces in
stack ghci
#2266 - Apply ghc-options to snapshot packages
#2289 - stack sdist: Fix timestamp in tarball
#2394 - Allow global Stack arguments with a script
#2316 - Inconsistency between ToJSON and FromJSON instances of PackageLocation
#2412 - Perform Unicode normalization on filepaths
#1810 - Solver: always keep ghc wired-in as hard constraints
#2453 - Support OpenBSD's tar where possible, require GNU tar for xz support
#2283 - Fix using --coverage with Cabal-1.24
#2424 - When marking exe installed, remove old version
#2373 - Stop truncating all-cabal-hashes git repo
#2175 - Handle non-ASCII filenames on Windows
#2491 - Avoid using multiple versions of a package in script interpreter
by passing package-id to ghc/runghc
#1957 - Only pre-load compiler version when using nix integration
#2459 - Solver: parse cabal errors also on Windows
#2502 - Allow exec and ghci commands in interpreter mode.
Scripts can now automatically open in the repl by usingexec ghci
instead ofrunghc
in the shebang command.
#2510 - Now consider a package to be dirty when an extra-source-file is changed.

v1.1.2
See haskellstack.org for installation and upgrade instructions.
Release notes:
- Official FreeBSD binaries are
now available
(#1253).
Major changes:
- Extensible custom snapshots implemented. These allow you to define snapshots
which extend other snapshots. See
#863. Local file custom
snapshots can now be safely updated without changing their name. Remote custom
snapshots should still be treated as immutable.
Behavior changes:
stack path --compiler
was added in the last release, to yield a path to the
compiler. Unfortunately,--compiler
is a global option that is useful to use
withstack path
. The same functionality is now provided bystack path --compiler-exe
. See
#2123- For packages specified in terms of a git or hg repo, the hash used in the
location has changed. This means that existing downloads from older stack
versions won't be used. This is a side-effect of the fix to
#2133 stack upgrade
no longer pays attention to local stack.yaml files, just the
global config and CLI options.
#1392stack ghci
now uses:add
instead of:load
, making it potentially work
better with user scripts. See
#1888
Other enhancements:
- Grab Cabal files via Git SHA to avoid regressions from Hackage revisions
#2070 - Custom snapshots now support
ghc-options
. - Package git repos are now re-used rather than re-cloned. See
#1620 DESTDIR
is filtered from environment when installing GHC. See
#1460stack haddock
now supports--hadock-arguments
. See
#2144- Signing: warn if GPG_TTY is not set as per
man gpg-agent
Bug fixes:
- Now ignore project config when doing
stack init
orstack new
. See
#2110 - Packages specified by git repo can now have submodules. See
#2133 - Fix of hackage index fetch retry. See re-opening of
#1418 - HPack now picks up changes to filesystem other than package.yaml. See
#2051 - "stack solver" no longer suggests --omit-packages. See
#2031 - Fixed an issue with building Cabal's Setup.hs. See
#1356 - Package dirtiness now pays attention to deleted files. See
#1841 stack ghci
now usesextra-lib-dirs
andextra-include-dirs
. See
#1656- Relative paths outside of source dir added via
qAddDependentFile
are now
checked for dirtiness. See
#1982 - Signing: always use
--with-fingerprints

v1.1.0
See haskellstack.org for installation and upgrade instructions.
Release notes:
- Added Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) Apt repo.
- No longer uploading new versions to Fedora 21 repo.
Behavior changes:
- Snapshot packages are no longer built with executable profiling. See
#1179. stack init
now ignores symlinks when searching for cabal files. It also now
ignores any directory that begins with.
(as well asdist
dirs) - before
it would only ignore.git
,.stack-work
, anddist
.- The stack executable is no longer built with
-rtsopts
. Before, when
-rtsopts
was enabled, stack would process+RTS
options even when intended
for some other program, such as when used withstack exec -- prog +RTS
.
See #2022. - The
stack path --ghc-paths
option is deprecated and renamed to--programs
.
--compiler
is added, which points directly at the compiler used in
the current project.--compiler-bin
points to the compiler's bin dir. - For consistency with the
$STACK_ROOT
environment variable, the
stack path --global-stack-root
flag and theglobal-stack-root
field
in the output ofstack path
are being deprecated and replaced with the
stack-root
flag and output field.
Additionally, the stack root can now be specified via the
--stack-root
command-line flag. See
#1148. stack sig
GPG-related sub-commands were removed (folded intoupload
and
sdist
)- GPG signing of packages while uploading to Hackage is now the default. Use
upload --no-signature
if you would rather not contribute your package
signature. If you don't yet have a GPG keyset, read this
blog post on GPG keys.
We can add a stack.yaml config setting to disable signing if some people
desire it. We hope that people will sign. Later we will be adding GPG
signature verification options. stack build pkg-1.2.3
will now build even if the snapshot has a different
package version - it is treated as an extra-dep.stack build local-pkg-1.2.3
is an error even if the version number matches the local package
#2028.- Having a
nix:
section no longer implies enabling nix build. This allows the
user to globally configure whether nix is used (unless the project overrides
the default explicitly). See
#1924. - Remove deprecated valid-wanted field.
- Docker: mount home directory in container #1949.
- Deprecate
--local-bin-path
instead--local-bin
. stack image
: allow absolute source paths foradd
.
Other enhancements:
stack haddock --open [PACKAGE]
opens the local haddocks in the browser.- Fix too much rebuilding when enabling/disabling profiling flags.
stack build pkg-1.0
will now buildpkg-1.0
even if the snapshot specifies
a different version (it introduces a temporary extra-dep)- Experimental support for
--split-objs
added
#1284. git
packages with submodules are supported by passing the--recursive
flag togit clone
.- When using hpack, only regenerate cabal files
when hpack files change. - hpack files can now be used in templates
stack ghci
now runs ghci as a separate process
#1306- Retry when downloading snapshots and package indices
- Many build options are configurable now in
stack.yaml
:
build:
library-profiling: true
executable-profiling: true
haddock: true
haddock-deps: true
copy-bins: true
prefetch: true
force-dirty: true
keep-going: true
test: true
test-arguments:
rerun-tests: true
additional-args: ['-fprof']
coverage: true
no-run-tests: true
bench: true
benchmark-opts:
benchmark-arguments: -O2
no-run-benchmarks: true
reconfigure: true
cabal-verbose: true
- A number of URLs are now configurable, useful for firewalls. See
#1794. - Suggest causes when executables are missing.
- Allow
--omit-packages
even without--solver
. - Improve the generated stack.yaml.
- Improve ghci results after :load Main module collision with main file path.
- Only load the hackage index if necessary
#1883, #1892. - init: allow local packages to be deps of deps
#1965. - Always use full fingerprints from GPG
#1952. - Default to using
gpg2
and fall back togpg
#1976. - Add a flag for --verbosity silent.
- Add
haddock --open
flag #1396.
Bug fixes:
- Package tarballs would fail to unpack.
#1884. - Fixed errant warnings about missing modules, after deleted and removed from
cabal file #921
#1805. - Now considers a package to dirty when the hpack file is changed
#1819. - Nix: cancelling a stack build now exits properly rather than dropping into a
nix-shell #1778. allow-newer: true
now causes--exact-configuration
to be passed to Cabal.
See #1579.stack solver
no longer fails withInvalidRelFile
for relative package
paths including..
. See
#1954.- Ignore emacs lock files when finding .cabal
#1897. - Use lenient UTF-8 decode for build output
#1945. - Clear index cache whenever index updated
#1962. - Fix: Building a container image drops a .stack-work dir in the current working
(sub)directory
#1975. - Fix: Rebuilding when disabling profiling
#2023.

Major changes:
- Some notable changes in
stack init

of a snapshot resolver rather than a compiler resolver -
#1583 - Automatically omit a package (
--omit-packages
) when it is compiler
incompatible or when there are packages with conflicting dependency

work #1358. - Docker: strip suffix from docker --version.
#1653 - Docker: pass USER and PWD environment bariables into container.
- On each run, stack will test the stack root directory (
/.stack), and the/.stack/config.yaml).
project and package work directories (.stack-work) for whether they are
owned by the current user and abort if they are not. This precaution can
be disabled with the--allow-different-user
flag orallow-different-user
option in the global config (

v1.0.0
A Christmas present: we’re calling this version 1.0! This is a minor enhancement and bug fix release, but since Stackage LTS 4 is about to be cut we thought it was time to give Stack a version number that reflects its readiness for production use.
Enhancements:
- Added flag
--profile
flag: passed withstack build
, it will
enable profiling, and for--bench
and--test
it will generate a
profiling report by passing+RTS -p
to the executable(s). Great
for using likestack build --bench --profile
(remember that
enabling profile will slow down your benchmarks by >4x). Runstack build --bench
again to disable the profiling and get proper speeds - Added flag
--trace
flag: just like--profile
, it enables
profiling, but instead of generating a report for--bench
and
--test
, prints out a stack trace on exception. Great for using
likestack build --test --trace
- Nix: all options can be overriden on command line
#1483 - Nix: build environments (shells) are now pure by default.
- Make verbosity silent by default in script interpreter mode
#1472 - Show a message when resetting git commit fails
#1453 - Improve Unicode handling in project/package names
#1337 - Fix ambiguity between a stack command and a filename to execute (prefer
stack
subcommands)
#1471 - Support multi line interpreter directive comments
#1394 - Handle space separated pids in ghc-pkg dump (for GHC HEAD)
#1509 - Add ghci --no-package-hiding option
#1517 stack new
can download templates from URL
#1466
Bug fixes:
- Nix: stack exec options are passed properly to the stack sub process
#1538 - Nix: specifying a shell-file works in any current working directory
#1547 - Nix: use
--resolver
argument - Docker: fix missing image message and '--docker-auto-pull'
- No HTML escaping for "stack new" template params
#1475 - Set permissions for generated .ghci script
#1480 - Restrict commands allowed in interpreter mode
#1504 - stack ghci doesn't see preprocessed files for executables
#1347 - All test suites run even when only one is requested
#1550 - Edge cases in broken templates give odd errors
#1535 - Fix test coverage bug on windows
v0.1.10.1
v0.1.10.0
Release notes:
- The Stack home page is now at haskellstack.org,
which shows the documentation rendered by readthedocs.org. Note: this
has necessitated some changes to the links in the documentation's markdown
source code, so please check the links on the website before submitting a PR
to fix them. - The locations of the
Ubuntu
and
Debian
package repositories have changed to have correct URL semantics according to
Debian's guidelines
#1378. The old
locations will continue to work for some months, but we suggest that you
adjust your/etc/apt/sources.list.d/fpco.list
to the new location to avoid
future disruption. - openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise
packages are now available, thanks to @mimi1vx.
Note: there will be some lag before these pick up new versions, as they are
based on Stackage LTS.
Major changes:
- Support for building inside a Nix-shell providing system dependencies
#1285 - Add optional GPG signing on
stack upload --sign
or with

#584 --work-dir
option for overriding.stack-work
#1178- Support
detailed-0.9
tests
#1429 - Docker: improved POSIX signal proxying to containers
#547
Bug fixes:
- Show absolute paths in error messages in multi-package builds
#1348 - Docker-built binaries and libraries in different path
#911
#1367 - Docker:
--resolver
argument didn't effect selected image tag - GHCi: Spaces in filepaths caused module loading issues
#1401 - GHCi: cpp-options in cabal files weren't used
#1419 - Benchmarks couldn't be run independently of eachother
#1412 - Send output of building setup to stderr
#1410

There are now Windows installers available: download them here. In addition, new Fedora 23 packages are available here.
Note that, starting with v0.1.8.0, releases of Stack will always have an even-numbered second-to-last version component. Odd second-to-last version components are reserved for unstable builds.
Major changes:
- GHCJS can now be used with stackage snapshots via the new
compiler
field. - Docker integration works with non-FP Complete generated images
#531
Other enhancements:
- Added an
allow-newer
config option
#922
#770 - When a Hackage revision invalidates a build plan in a snapshot, trust the
snapshot #770 - Added a
stack config set resolver RESOLVER

can now install GHCJS on windows. See
#1145 and
#749stack hpc report
command added, which generates reports for HPC tix filesstack ghci
now accepts all the flags accepted bystack build

disable #1065stack ghci
now detects and warns about various circumstances where it is
liable to fail. See
#1270- Added
require-docker-version
configuration option - Packages will now usually be built along with their tests and benchmarks. See
#1166 - Relative
local-bin-path
paths will be relative to the project's root
directory, not the current working directory.
#1340 stack clean
now takes an optional[PACKAGE]
argument for use in
multi-package projects. See
