# Changelog

## Unreleased

**Enhancements:**

 - Support for partial (reusable) schema files. Helps reduce duplication [\#79](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/79)
 - New datatype `boolean`: accepts `true`/`false` (atom or string). Replaces the common `{enum, [true, false]}` [\#77](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/77)
 - New datatype `regex`: validates a regex and rejects patterns prone to excessive backtracking [\#75](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/75)
 - New datatype `uri` (and `{uri, [Scheme]}`): validates a parseable URI with an allowed scheme and a non-empty host [\#75](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/75)
 - Range constraints on `integer`: `{integer, [{min, N}, {max, N}, {gt, N}, {lt, N}]}`, plus shortcut atoms `non_negative` and `positive` [\#78](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/78)
 - Range constraints on `float`: `{float, [{min, N}, {max, N}, {gt, N}, {lt, N}]}`, plus shortcut atoms `non_negative` and `positive` [\#78](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/78)
 - New datatype alias `port` for `{integer, [{min, 0}, {max, 65535}]}` [\#78](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/78)
 - New datatype alias `byte` for `{integer, [{min, 0}, {max, 255}]}` [\#78](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/78)
 - New datatype alias `percent` for `{percent, integer}` (0-100) [\#78](https://github.com/Kyorai/cuttlefish/pull/78)
