This PR adds macOS and Windows jobs to the CI workflow. This allows us
to see when changes break functionality on any supported platform, which
is particularly important for changes that involve the file system or
file watcher.
Right now, serve tests will fail when Rojo is built with the FSEvent
backend. The cause is essentially due to the fact that `/var` (where
temporary directories for serve tests are located) on macOS is actually
a symlink to `/private/var`. Paths coming from FSEvent always have
symlinks expanded, but Rojo never expands symlinks. So, Rojo's paths
during these tests look like `/var/*` while the FSEvent paths look like
`/private/var/*`. When Rojo's change processor receives these events, it
considers them outside the project and does not apply any changes,
causing serve tests to time out.
To work around this, we can call `Path::canonicalize` before passing the
project path to `rojo serve` during serve tests. Rojo does need to
better support symlinks (which would also solve the problem), but I
think that can be left for another day because it's larger in scope and
I mostly just want working tests before addressing #609.
Brings over some changes to rbx_dom_lua to validate attribute names
before calling `Instance:SetAttribute`. This should prevent Rojo from
falling over when it attempts to sync an attribute with an invalid name.
These warnings always appear for properties like `Capabilities`,
`SourceAssetId`, etc. and tend to scare users who are syncing models.
This information is now surfaced in the patch visualizer, so I think
these warnings can be demoted to debug logs.
Due to the rewrite of the plugin's core sync loop and the change for the
Notify backend on MacOS, along with all the other changes in 7.4.0, it
makes sense for us to use a release candidate before actually cutting a
proper `7.4.0` release.
This modifies Rojo's build script to throw a fit if we're building a
plugin with a semver incompatible version. In the process, it moves the
version of the plugin to a file named `Version.txt` that's parsed at
runtime. This should be minimally invasive but it's technically worse
for performance than the hardcoded table and string we had before.
This feels better than a CI check or just manually verifying because it
makes it physically impossible for us to forget since Rojo won't build
with it being wrong.
This PR aims to clean up the changelog in preparation for 7.4.0. We
should focus on making changes clear to users with examples, removing
any entries that they won't care about, and consolidating tightly
related changes

Resolves#667
This PR:
- Introduces a new field in the project file: `scriptType` which has the
default value of `Class` (in parity with previous versions), but can
also be `RunContext`.
- This is then passed to `InstanceContext` from the `Project` struct.
- This then changes the RunContext in the lua `snapshot_middleware`

Because Roact will destroy and recreate a plugin widget if it unmounts
and remounts, Studio will complain about making a new widget with the
same ID as the old one.
The simplest solution is to just use GUIDs so we never have to worry
about this again. The ID is used internally for storing the widget's
dock state and other internal details, so we don't want *all* our
widgets to use GUIDs, only the ephemeral popup ones.
Services, `StarterPlayerScripts`, and `StarterCharacterScripts` are
currently special-cased to allow them to be specified in project files
without a classname. This does the same to `Terrain` since it's a
singleton in the same style as those.
The last release of rbx_dom had support for `Terrain.MaterialColors`.
This allows it to be specified directly instead of only via the
fully-qualified syntax.
When building the tree, I've implemented a few improvements:
- We no longer traverse the full ancestry for every leaf node- we exit
early when we find a node that already exists
- We no longer search the entire tree to see if a node id exists before
creating one with that id, we just check if is in the map
TOML maps well to Lua, is easier to read and write than JSON, and is
commonly used by Roblox tools.
Use cases:
* Put game, plugin, or library config in a toml file
* Sync in toml files generated by tools
* Sync in config files for tools so that the game can double-check that
the config file has been followed. (e.g. check that packages match
versions specified in wally.toml)
- Reconciler now has precommit and postcommit hooks for patch applying
- This is used to compute a patch tree snapshot precommit and update the
tree metadata postcommit
- PatchVisualizer can now display Removes that happened during sync
- It was previously missing because the removed objects no longer
existed so it couldn't get any info on them (This is resolved because
the info is gotten in precommit, before the instance was removed)
- PatchVisualizer now shows Old and New values instead of just Incoming
during sync
- (Still displays Current and Incoming during confirmation)
- This is much more useful, since you now see what the changes were and
not just which things were changed
- PatchVisualizer displays clarifying message when initial sync has no
changes instead of just showing a blank box
- Objects in the tree UI no longer get stuck expanded when the next
patch has the same instance but different info on it
- Objects in the tree UI correctly become selectable after their
instance is added and unclickable when removed during sync
