Upgrading

From v0.1.x

v0.2.0 has breaking changes. To upgrade from an earlier version:

// Before:
import { formatted, generate, format, parse } from 'scramble-generator';

formatted(); // R U' D ...
const scramble = generate(); // [{ face: 'R', longFace: 'RIGHT', inverted: true, double: false }, ...]
format(scramble) // R' ...
parse("R' U L") // [{ face: 'R', longFace: 'RIGHT', inverted: true, double: false }, ...]

// After
import generateScramble, { formatScramble } from 'scramble-generator';
import parseScramble from 'scramble-parser';

generateScramble(); // R U' D ...
const scramble = generateScramble({ formatted: false }); // [{ face: 'R', inverted: true, double: false }, ...] (NB: `longFace` has been removed)
formatScramble(scramble); // R' ...
parseScramble("R' U L"); // [{ face: 'R', inverted: true, double: false }, ...] (NB: `longFace` has been removed)

These breaking changes are necessary to facilitate moving towards v1.0.0, after which the package will adhere strictly to semver. There might be some more breaking changes
