Maintain a changelog

AxelTheGerman opened this issue Β· comments

Hi @markburns

Thanks so much for creating and maintaining this gem. I recently started using it and seems to work great for what I need.

Would it be possible to maintain a changelog? I just noticed the version got bumped to 1.x πŸŽ‰ congrats! Are there any breaking changes? Looking at the commit history there might be some change surrounding older ruby versions and possibly some big fixes?

Thanks again for your work,
Axel

Hey Axel

The move to 1.0.0 was really about drawing a line in the sand and yes I'll support a change log from here on out.

There wasn't really a breaking change on jumping to 1.x in the numbers_in_words ruby API itself but one of the 0.x releases had introduced a bug for older rubies. I've fixed this bug for those rubies now.

Some internal code was accessing an array like arr[n..] which is a newer ruby feature equivalent to arr[n..-1]. This was introduced by rubocop autocorrection.

Anyway a strong yes for a changelog going forwards from here.
