Release Date: 2025-12-29
Previous Version: v0.2.0-alpha.23
Summary
This release significantly expands nanx's configuration management capabilities with a comprehensive suite of CLI commands for granular config operations. The new config subcommands provide developers with flexible tools to view, edit, and manage configuration at both global and local levels, with support for config inheritance and interactive editing workflows.
Features
Enhanced Configuration Management System
- Comprehensive config subcommands: Added
show, edit, validate, list, where, get, set, and unset subcommands to nanions::nanx::config::config_cmd, enabling fine-grained control over configuration management
- Config inheritance support: Implemented configuration inheritance system in
nanions::nanx::config::inheritance allowing merged views of global and local configurations with proper precedence resolution
- Scope-aware operations: All config commands support
--global, --local, and --merged flags to operate on different configuration scopes
- Interactive editor integration: Implemented automatic editor detection with fallback chain (
$VISUAL, $EDITOR, platform defaults) for seamless config editing experience
- Config validation: Built-in validation command to verify configuration file integrity before applying changes
- Config introspection:
where subcommand reveals actual file paths for global and local config files, useful for debugging and manual intervention
- Key-value operations: Granular
get, set, and unset operations for individual configuration keys without opening full editor
Technical Implementation Details
- All config operations properly handle TOML serialization/deserialization
- Config file locations follow platform conventions (XDG on Linux, standard paths on macOS/Windows)
- Inheritance resolution prioritizes local over global settings with clear merge semantics
- Editor spawning includes proper error handling for missing or failed editor processes
