1.1.0

• Update dependencies
• Update mapnik-reference to support new Mapnik API version (#494)

1.0.1

• Fix a error in the serialization process. (#473)

1.0.0

• Documentation is now available on https://cartocss.readthedocs.io. (#473)
• Warnings are emitted if properties are used that are deprecated, unstable or experimental. There is a new command line / API switch (-q / --quiet / quiet) to suppress those warnings. (#474)
• Warnings are emitted if a layer has no associated styles or styles do not match a corresponding layer selector. (#29)
• New command line switch -f / --file to specify a file for output instead of stdout.
• carto now honors variable redefinition and uses the last defined value instead of the first one (#338).
• All parameters of XML tags are now ouput in alphabetical order. This makes output more predictable.
• carto is now able to output a JSON variant of Mapnik XML. There is a new command line / API switch (-o / --output / outputFormat) to choose the output format. Possible values are mapnik (default) for Mapnik XML and json for the JSON variant (part of #413). For Mapnik XML all character data as tag content is now prefixed with CDATA.
• Expressions are allowed in filters e.g. [height] % 50 = 0 or [height] + 10 = 0, fields have to be properly written within brackets (#377)
• carto now accepts custom references for validating rules (part of #413)
• The JavaScript API has been documented (#479)
• New symbolizer rules (work on the whole symbolizer) enable control of symbolizer serialization. Write e.g. line: none to suppress output of the line symbolizer for this definition. Write e.g. marker: auto to output a markers symbolizer with default values. Symbolizer rules are considered an advanced features and are never inherited to other definitions (#477).
• Remove millstone from optional dependencies again (#482).

Breaking changes

Stylesheets

• The deprecated name attribute for layers is no longer supported. Use id instead.
• The deprecated color functions husl and husla are no longer supported. Use hsluv and hsluva instead.
• If you define a variable with the same name twice the latest defined value is now used in contrast to the first defined one as before.
• All parameters of XML tags are now ouput in alphabetical order. If you somehow depend on the order of parameters (e.g. for tests) expect them to change.

API

• carto.Renderer.render and carto.Renderer.renderMSS now return an object { msg: Array, data: String } instead of just a string. data contains the output as before and msg now contains an array of error or warning objects. In case of errors data is null.
• carto now only throws errors in case of program failures. All other style processing related errors can be found in the msg property (see above).
• The constructor of carto.Renderer now only takes one options object instead of a env and options parameter.
• The option mapnik_version and validation_data of carto.Renderer have been renamed to version and validationData respectively.
• carto.Renderer now checks each option before forwarding them to the rendering chain. Supported options are defined in the documentation. If you use a option that is missing please open a issue.
