Release r202613

What's new

This release contains the following new feature:

• Find in packages

Find in packages

A very useful feature has been added that allows you to quickly search through the code of all packages in the current environment.

To bring up the "Find in packages" dialog from anywhere in the environment, type Ctrl+Shift+F (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+F (Mac):

The dialog has a ton of features that make it easy to use, for example:

• Navigate through the search results with the arrow keys.
• Select a search result with the Enter key to navigate directly to the corresponding line in the code. Alternatively, double click the result to open it in the editor.
• The search field is prepopulated with the currently selected text. This not only works for code selected in the package editor, but from anywhere in the environment.
  • As an example use case, suppose you want to search for all references to an account name. In the Accounts tab, just select the account name and press the shortcut key for the "Find in packages" dialog to immediately see the results.
• Refine the search results by using the toggles for case sensitivity, matching whole words only and regular expressions.
• Search results are syntax highlighted to make them easy to scan.
• A resizable preview of the code is shown below the currently selected search result to see it in context.

Should you ever forget the shortcut key: the dialog can also be accessed via the command palette of the package editor. Press F1 to bring up the command palette, and then search for "find in packages":

Other changes

This release contains a number of smaller changes:

• Fix: When an inbound email configuration was set to use the Microsoft Graph protocol, the Verify button sometimes reported "success" incorrectly. This has been improved, and it is now checked that the Mail.ReadWrite permission is configured in Azure, and that both the Inbox and Archive folders exist and can be accessed by the automator.

• Fix: fetch, fetchAll and fetchFilter did not parse the custom_data field on the returned records when the module path included a predefined filter (e.g. "cis/active"). The custom_data is now correctly returned as a parsed object instead of a JSON-encoded string.

• Fix: the file_read_csv function, which is suitable for processing very large CSV files, in certain cases produced incorrect results. To fix this, the underlying implementation has now been switched to the rock-solid csv-parse library. In addition, its error reporting has been improved to make debugging easier.

  The functions related to CSV processing have been grouped together on the CSV functions page.

• Code completion in the package editor now suggests predefined-filter paths (such as "cis/active" or "requests/open") as the first argument of fetch, fetchAll and fetchFilter.

• In r202611 we removed the redundant encryption password field from file repositories. The functions file_create_encrypted and file_read_encrypted that made use of this field have now been removed and all occurrences of these functions have been migrated to file_create and file_read.
