Release Notes

2.5.0

- FIX: MacOS compatibility tag.
- FEATURE: Support Compatibility with PowerShell 7.3 / $PSNativeCommandArgumentPassing.
 Now checks $PSNativeCommandArgumentPassing and handles accordingly.
 Backward compatible with original behavior, unless $PSNativeCommandArgumentPassing is set to Standard.

2.4.0

- Add -ConcatenatedArguments to add arguments in the form `--name=value`. This is mainly required if value starts
 with a - and would otherwise be interpreted as an argument and not a value. For instance '--password "-123"' fails,
 where '--password=-123' succeeds. The values in the hash table of -ConcatenatedArguments parameter will be masked in
 verbose output if they are of type SecureString.
- Run build and test on Windows, Ubuntu and MacOS.
- Be honest on support for supported PowerShell versions: Powershell core >= 6.1.0.
- Correctly mention support for -NoEnumerate: PowerShell core >= 7.0.0.
- Improve portability of build and tests.
- Rename branch master to main.
- Reduce release notes to versions 2.x.x.
- Make everything work with strict mode 3.0.

2.3.2

- Fixed issues with argument completion on -Subscription and -ResourceGroup.

2.3.1

- Fixed issue with loading the module on case-sensitive file-systems.

2.3.0

- Added MIT license.
- Process 'bicep upgrade' as raw command.
- Rewrote / restructured tests. Use Module name in mocks where applicable.
- Wrote better tests to test argument completers.
- Escape subscription name in calling az in resource argument completer.

2.2.0

- Improved security by supporting SecureString as input for Azure CLI parameter. The SecureString value will be passed
 on as plain text to Azure CLI, but will be printed as ******** on the Invoke-AzCli verbose output.
- Added -EscapeHandling parameter to set automatic escaping of strings on the command-line to Azure CLI. Set to Always
 to escape \ and " with the \ escape character. Do not set it, or set it to None, to not escape. This is the default
 behavior.
- Allow to set global CliVerbosity preference through the $AzCliVerbosityPreference variable.
- Deprecated -SuppressCliWarnings in favor of -CliVerbosity NoWarnings. Use of -SuppressCliWarnings will give a
 deprecation warning.
- Argument completers for -Subscription and -ResourceGroup provide a better description for each completion result.
- Documentation updates and fixes.

2.1.0

- Added argument -CliVerbosity to set verbosity of Azure CLI. This provides a single parameter to either set
 --only-show-errors, --verbose, or --debug.

2.0.0

- Added argument completion for -Subscription parameter.
- Added -ResourceGroup parameter, because the --resource-group parameter is needed so often. Supports argument completion.
- Added -NoEnumerate and -AsHashtable to have more control over the JSON to output conversion.
- Added parameter sets, to make clear which parameters can be used together. This may break existing scripts that use
 parameters together that are not allowed together anymore.
- Improved test coverage.
