CHANGES IN bookdown VERSION 0.6 (unreleased)

NEW FEATURES

  • Added an argument config_file to render_book() so that one can specify a custom config file; the default config file is still _bookdown.yml (thanks, @stephlocke, #465).

BUG FIXES

  • Various compatibility issues with Pandoc 2.0 (thanks, @maxheld83 #479, @jerrythomas #481, @Hantabaru #483, @dataopt #504, and #478).

  • split_by = 'section' does not work completely correctly for the HTML output formats like gitbook (thanks, @dataopt, @502).

CHANGES IN bookdown VERSION 0.5

NEW FEATURES

  • Added support for two more environments: Exercises and Solutions (thanks, @dshuman1, #423).

  • If the Rmd file merged from all chapters exists and you are sure it can be safely deleted, you can set an option delete_merged_file to true in _bookdown.yml (thanks, @dmenne, #442).

BUG FIXES

  • The book cannot be properly rendered when the option book_filename in _bookdown.yml contains a dot (thanks, @pinusm, #410).

  • Proof and Remark blocks do not work well for EPUB output (thanks, @mamaciasq, #443).

  • When split_by = 'section' for the gitbook output format, navigation buttons are missing on the page before the appendix (thanks, @dataopt, #409).

MINOR CHANGES

  • The label prefix for Example blocks was changed from ex: to exm:.

CHANGES IN bookdown VERSION 0.4

NEW FEATURES

  • Added special syntax for unnumbered part headers: # (PART\*). Numbered parts should be written after # (PART) as before (thanks, @brooksambrose, http://stackoverflow.com/q/43688902/559676).

  • The gitbook output format also supports abstract in YAML now (thanks, @maxheld83, #311).

  • For the gitbook output format, the downloads option in config supports rmd now (e.g. download: ["pdf", "epub", "rmd"]) if the edit link has been specified and is a link to Github (thanks, @coatless, #330).

  • You can set the global R option bookdown.post.latex via options() to be a function to post-process the LaTeX output of the pdf_book format; see ?bookdown::pdf_book for details (thanks, @nicksolomon, #373).

BUG FIXES

  • The HTML output file is not moved to the output directory when split_by = 'none' in bookdown::gitbook or bookdown::html_book (http://stackoverflow.com/q/40976073/559676).

  • The YAML option includes: before_body works correctly for gitbook output now (thanks, @benmarwick, #267).

  • Theorem environments are not defined for LaTeX output unless a theorem block is present (thanks, @JeffreyRacine, #291).

  • For remark and proof blocks, the chunk option name did not work correctly for non-LaTeX output (thanks, @ugroempi, #347).

  • Some text references do not work for HTML and Word output (thanks, @ugroempi, #363).

  • The option chapter_name in _bookdown.yml does not work when it is specified as a function (thanks, @tzerk, 0c05c3828be).

  • External assets such as fonts/css files should never be wiped when rendering a book to HTML (thanks, @nicholaelaw, #398).

MINOR CHANGES

  • The daemon argument was removed from serve_book(), but you can still pass it to servr::httw() via the ... argument.

  • Added a small space (padding) to the right of section numbers in gitbook output, so that the section numbers are better separated from the titles (thanks, @aronatkins, #367).

CHANGES IN bookdown VERSION 0.3

NEW FEATURES

  • Added a Github button in the group of sharing buttons on the toolbar. By default, this button is not displayed. You have to set github: yes under sharing in the gitbook configurations (https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown/html.html) and specify your Github repo using the top-level option github-repo in the YAML metadata of index.Rmd, e.g. github-repo: rstudio/bookdown.

  • The appendix heading will be preserved in bookdown::html_document2 output, e.g. if you have # (APPENDIX) Appendix {-} in your document, you will see the heading Appendix in the output. Previously it was removed.

  • Parts in HTML output are also be numbered using roman numerals like LaTeX/PDF output.

BUG FIXES

  • Wrong part titles were inserted to the table of contents of PDF output (thanks, @florisvdh, #243).

  • Cross-references for appendices in html_document2 output did not work (thanks, @florisvdh, #245).

  • Part titles were not correctly processed when they were longer than 20 characters in PDF output (thanks, @florisvdh, #246).

CHANGES IN bookdown VERSION 0.2

NEW FEATURES

  • Added arguemnts toc_unnumberred, toc_appendix, toc_bib, and quote_footer to pdf_book().

  • Added support for cross-referencing equations in multi-page HTML output and EPUB; see https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown/ for the syntax (thanks, @deleeuw, #85).

  • Rmd files can live in subdirectories if you use the Merge-and-Knit approach (the default), and they will be found if the configuration option rmd_subdir is true in _bookdown.yml (thanks, @leobuchignani, #205).

MAJOR CHANGES

  • The force_knit argument of render_book() was removed (to avoid confusion when switching output formats).

MINOR CHANGES

BUG FIXES

  • Figures are not correctly numbered in Word output using the bookdown::word_document2() format (thanks, @byzheng, #158).

  • For the "Knit and Merge" approach (new_session: yes in _bookdown.yml), certain parts like figures may not show up when switching from one output format to another (e.g. from HTML to LaTeX).

  • The rmd_files option in _bookdown.yml does not work when it is a list of html and latex options (thanks, @ismayc, #177).

  • Math expressions does not appear in the table of contents when the output format is gitbook (thanks, @philomonk, #204).

  • Footnotes of multiple paragraphs are not displayed on the current page (thanks, @axitdn, #234).

  • The output format pdf_document2() also works with articles now when an R Markdown document contains bookdown-specific headers, such as parts or appendix headers (http://stackoverflow.com/q/40529798/559676).
