Previously configured MSRV was stale (i.e. wouldn't have compiled), and has been modified to 1.60. This is being treated as bug, and as such not requiring a major release.

AIX: experimental support. See PR #79

0.8.12 - 2023-10-11

Fixed

0.8.10 - 2023-04-12

Changed

Linux: move to home as a dependency, instead of dirs

0.8.9 - 2023-04-12

Added

Linux: add support for running under Flatpak sandboxes. See issue #67 and PR #70

Fixed

Windows: fix a bug where browser command parsing failed. See issue #68 and PR #69

0.8.8 - 2023-01-30

Changed

Android: bumped jni dependency version to 0.21

0.8.7 - 2023-01-30

Fixed

Fixes a bug on WSL, when xdg-settings executes successfully but returns no default browser name. Thanks to @krsh732. See #64.

0.8.6 - 2023-01-26

Fixed

For Windows 32-bit, fix ABI to be used, which was broken in v0.8.5. Thanks to @alula. See #62 and #63.

0.8.5 - 2022-12-31

Fixed

For Windows platform, removes the windows crate dependency, relying on selective FFI bindings instead, thus avoiding the large dependency. See #62. Thanks to @Jake-Shadle.

0.8.4 - 2022-12-31

Fixed

Urgent bug fix for windows, where rendering broke on Firefox & Chrome. See #60

0.8.3 - 2022-12-30

Added

Web browser is guaranteed to open for local files even if local file association was to a non-browser app (say an editor). This now is formally incorporated as part of this crate's Consistent Behaviour
WSL support, thanks to @Nachtalb. This works even if wslu is not installed in WSL environments.
A new feature hardened now available for applications which require only http(s) urls to be opened. This acts as a security feature.

Changed

On macOS, we now use CoreFoundation library instead of open command.
On Linux/*BSD, we now parse xdg configuration to execute the command directly, instead of using xdg-open command. This allows us to open the browser for local html files, even if the .html extension was associated with an edit (see #55)

Fixed

The guarantee of web browser being opened (instead of local file association), now solves for the scenario where the URL is crafted to be an executable. This was reported privately by @offalltn.

0.8.2 - 2022-11-08

Fixed

Fix app crashes when running under termux on Android. See #53 and #54.

0.8.1 - 2022-11-01

Fixed

On Android, app crashes due to ndk-glue dependency. See #51 and #52. Thanks to @rib for the fix.

0.8.0 - 2022-09-09

Added

Support for iOS is finally here. Thanks to hakolao for this. See PR #48

Changed

Updated all dependencies to current versions

0.7.1 - 2022-04-27

Added

Introduce Browser::is_available() and Browser::exists(&self) to check availability of browsers without opening a URL

Changed

Modify BrowserOptions to be constructable only via the builder pattern, to prevent future API compatibility issues

0.7.0 - 2022-04-24

Added

Introduce way to provide a target hint to the browser via BrowserOptions::target_hint PR #45

Changed

Breaking API change for users of BrowserOptions. We've now shifted to a non-consuming builder pattern to avoid future breakages, as more items get added to BrowserOptions

0.6.0 - 2022-02-19

Changed

Define consistent non-blocking behaviour on all UNIX platforms. Now, unless it's specifically a text browser (like lynx etc.), we make sure that the browser is launched in a non-blocking way. See #18 and https://github.com/amodm/webbrowser-rs/commit/614cacf4a67ae0a75323768a1d70c16d792a760d
Define default behaviour on all UNIX platforms to make sure that stdout/stderr are suppressed. See #20 and https://github.com/amodm/webbrowser-rs/commit/ecfbf66daa0cc139bd557bd7899a183bd6575990
(Low probability) breaking change: All public functions now return a Result<()>. As almost all the uses of this library do a .is_ok() or equivalent, there should not be any breaks, but please report a bug if you do. See #42 and #43
@VZout modified Android implementation to use JNI instead of am start because of permission issues in more recent Android.
Define consistent behaviour for non-ascii URLs, where they're now encoded automatically before being invoked. See #34 and https://github.com/amodm/webbrowser-rs/commit/11789ddfe36264bbbe7d596ab61e3fff855c3adb
Richer set of underlying commands used for UNIX to cater to different scenarios at runtime. See https://github.com/amodm/webbrowser-rs/commit/d09eeae4f2ab5664fc01f4dba4a409e1bc11f10e

Fixed

On WASM, by default URLs are opened with a target of _blank. See #39. Thanks to @vbeffa for pointing out the issue.
@tokusumi fixed #41 where addition of open command (done for Haiku) was breaking things in some places.
