1.5.0

2016-07-11

After a major hiatus, Sugar 2.0.0 is nearly ready to be released. However, v2 introduces many breaking changes, so 1.5.0 is being released in the interim for those who aren't able to upgrade. This will be the last minor release of v1, however support of bugfixes in v1 will continue. Note that the documentation for 1.5.0 will still be available on this site, however other things like custom builds are 2.0.0 only.

New Methods

• Number.isNaN shim.
• Object.isArguments.
• Date#get allows date creation with a context date that can be used as a starting point for relative dates.
• Function#memoize allows memoization of expensive functions and is more robust than Function#once.

New Features

• Added ability for String#stripTags and Strip#removeTags to pass a callback.
• Added a third argument to Number#bytes to allow normal SI units.
• Added ability to pass a single string to Date.range, for example Date.range('monday to thursday').
• Allow String#each to break the loop with false.
• Updated Array#sortBy to handle sorting on multiple properties.
• Fixed String#unescapeHTML to handle HTML (and hex) codes, as well as  
• Set a global thousands and decimal marker with Number.thousands and Number.decimal.

Bugfixes

• Fixed issue with the digit ten in date creation.
• Fixed issue with the Date#[unit]Since improperly applying error margins.
• Fixed issue with dates shifting in "monthsFromNow" (and consequently "relative") when traversing into a month that doesn't have enough days.
• Fixed issue with advance/rewind using an object with both a "week" and "day" parameter.
• Fixed issue Function#every not being able to cancel itself.
• Fixed issue with German dates not allowing abbreviated weekdays with 2 characters.
• Date.create(null) is now interpeted as a time stamp.
• Fix for ambiguous years not working with Date#past/future.
• Fix for odd iOS7 bug with Number#abs (#400)
• Fixed many issues with DST and simplified month traversal.
• Refactored the since and fromNow methods to traverse using internal date methods instead of applying an error margin. This makes them much more accurate during DST traversal, leap years, etc.

Other

• Moved Object.map, Object.each, and Object.size to the object package. If you were using custom builds previously be aware of this.
