v0.4.2

d2lang/d2v0.4.2May 2, 2023by alixander

AI Summary

This release enhances the `class` keyword functionality and grid diagrams. It introduces the ability to apply multiple classes to a single object using arrays and significantly improves the performance and robustness of grid layouts.

Key Highlights

  • The `class` field now accepts arrays to apply multiple style classes to a single object.
  • Grid diagrams are faster and more robust.
  • ELK self loops get distributed around the object instead of stacking.
  • Improper usages of `class` and `style` now generate error messages.

New Features

  • `class` field now accepts arrays
  • Pill shape is implemented with rectangles of large border radius

Full Release Notes

This release improves on the features introduced in 0.4, with `class` keyword now accepting multiple class values with an array, and grid diagrams becoming faster and more robust.

```d2
classes: {
  base: {
    style: {
      stroke-dash: 2
      border-radius: 5
      font: mono
      text-transform: uppercase
    }
  }
  error: {
    style.fill: "#e07d7d"
    style.stroke: "#a60c0c"
    style.font-color: white
  }
  success: {
    style.fill: "#86f499"
    style.stroke: "#017f07"
    style.font-color: black
  }
}

server-1.class: [base; error]
server-2.class: [base; success]
