Recursive jar scanning libDirs
When you configure libDirs for a server, CommandBox used to only load jar files found in the root. Now it will include sub directories which gives you more flexibility around how to install your jars.
1
# Jar installs to lib/jline-3.0.0.M1/jline-3.0.0.M1.jar
2
install "jar:https://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=jline/jline/3.0.0.M1/jline-3.0.0.M1.jar"
3
4
# Load up the jar when the server starts
5
server set app.libDirs=lib

New printTable Command
In the previous release, we introduced a new helper for printing ASCII Art tables in your custom commands and task runners. We've taken this a step further and wrapped the table printer utiilty in a new command so you can use it from the CLI directly. We've also expanded its functionality to accept ANY data in as JSON and it will marshall it into a query for you. This means it can be a query, an array of structs, an array or arrays, and more. You can now get quick and easy visualization of any data right from the CLI or in builds.
1
# array of structs
2
printTable [{a:1,b:2},{a:3,b:4},{a:5,b:6}]

New sql command for on-the-fly manipulation of data
As if the previous command isn't cool enough, we've also added a new "sql" command which will also accept any sort of data as JSON, marshall it into a query object and allow you to alias, filter, order, and limit the rows on the fly using CFML's query of queries!
1
# filter, sort, limit, and select extensions installed into the CLI (output as table)
2
#extensionlist | sql select=id,name where="name like '%sql%'" orderby=name limit=3 | printTable
3
4
# order and select JSON data from a file (output as JSON)
5
cat myfile.json | sql select=col1,col2 orderby=col2
6
7
# limit JSON (output as table)
8
sql data=[{a:1,b:2},{a:3,b:4},{a:5,b:6}] where="a > 1" | printTable

The sql command works very nicely with the new tablePrinter command, and truly makes JSON a first class citizen of the CommandBox CLI.
Small change to print.table() helper
We've made a small adjustment to the print.table() helper that was introduced in CommandBox 5.3.1 as follows. The old method signature is
1
public string function print(
2
required any headers,
3
array data=[],
4
string includeHeaders
5
) {
Copied!
And the new method signature is:
1
public string function print(
2
required any data=[],
3
any includedHeaders="",
4
any headerNames="",
5
boolean debug=false
6
) {
Copied!
The parameters to the new printTable command matches the NEW method signature of the print.table() helper as well.
Format XML in REPL
When working with XML in the REPL, formatting is now applied when the XML is printed out to the console, making it easier to read (same as JSON)
1
❯ repl "XMLParse( '<root><brad>wood</brad></root>' )"
2
3
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><root>
4
<brad>wood</brad>
5
</root>
