dashbitco/nimble_options

NimbleOptions is an Elixir library designed for validating and documenting configuration options. It provides a robust type system for defining schemas, generating structured validation errors, and producing formatted documentation. The system ensures data integrity through comprehensive validation rules and supports sensitive data handling via value redaction.

This release introduces NimbleOptions.Docs, a new module that generates formatted documentation from option schemas, supporting nested levels, subsections, deprecation notices, and custom type documentation. It also replaces the previous string-based error handling with a new NimbleOptions.ValidationError struct, which provides structured error details including the key, value, and keys path, and supports redacting sensitive values in error output.

NimbleOptions introduces several new validation types including \:map\, \:string\, \:boolean\, \:integer\, \:float\, \:timeout\, \:pid\, \:reference\, and \nil\, alongside enhanced support for \{:or, subtypes}\ and \{:list, subtype}\. The library also adds new schema options such as \:type\_doc\ for customizing documentation, \:type\_spec\ for overriding generated typespecs, and \:redact\ for hiding sensitive values in error messages. Additionally, the \:rename\_to\ option has been removed, and the \:one\_of\ type has been renamed to \:in\.

This entry introduces the NimbleOptions library (version 1.1.1) for the first time, establishing its core configuration and development dependencies. The project now targets Elixir 1.15 and includes dev/test dependencies for documentation generation (ex\_doc) and code coverage reporting (excoveralls, castore). It also configures Hex package metadata (maintainers, license, links) and sets up ExDoc formatting, marking the initial public availability of this options validation tool.
