0.9.0

Release Notes v0.9.0 (November 9, 2024)

This release includes significant improvements to node selection and manipulation methods, new functionality for content prepending, and a critical bug fix

🔄 Changes

• Added reverse iteration support in Tree::child_ids_of_it and NodeRef::children_it (use rev: true for reverse order)
• Improved internal logic for selection operations (Selection::append_selection and Selection::replace_with_selection)

✨ New Features

• Added new node prepending methods:
  • NodeRef::prepend_child: Insert a single child at the start
  • NodeRef::prepend_children: Insert multiple children at the start
  • NodeRef::prepend_html: Parse and insert HTML content at the start
  • Selection::prepend_html: Parse and insert HTML at the start of all matched nodes
• Introduced new selection extension methods:
  • Selection::ancestors: Get ancestors of matched elements
  • Selection::add_selection: Add another selection to current selection
  • Selection::add_matcher
  • Selection::add
  • Selection::try_add

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Enhanced selection operations to properly handle multiple nodes and cross-tree selections:
  • Fixed Selection::append_selection
  • Fixed Selection::replace_with_selection
• Improved node attachment methods to automatically handle node detachment from previous parent:
  • Node::append_child
  • Node::append_children
  • Node::prepend_child
  • Node::prepend_children

⚠️ Critical Fix

Fixed a significant issue in NodeRef::first_element_child where the method incorrectly checked the node itself instead of its children. This fix may affect existing code that relies on this method.

Impact:

• CSS selector :has() behavior could have been affected
• First element child detection logic
• Code depending on this method's behavior

Action Required:

Please review any code that depends on NodeRef::first_element_child after upgrading to ensure compatibility with the corrected behavior.
