8.5.0 (2024-Nov-19)
-------------------

Core
====

* Remove the Snapcraft Dockerfile in favour of the `snapcraft-rocks`_ registry.
For more information, see the ``docker/README.md`` file.

Bases
#####

core24
""""""

* Add a ``--platform <platform>`` argument to the ``clean`` command to filter
which build environments to clean (`canonical/craft-application#425`_).

Plugins
#######

Poetry
""""""

* Add a new plugin for projects using `Poetry <https://python-poetry.org/>`_.
For more information, see :doc:`Poetry plugin
reference</reference/plugins/poetry_plugin>`.

Extensions
##########

Env-injector
""""""""""""

* Add a new experimental extension called
`env-injector <https://github.com/canonical/snappy-env>`_. It simplifies
passing environment variables to snaps at runtime using ``snap config`` or a
``.env`` file. For more information, see `the env-injector
extension <https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/the-env-injector-extension/41477>`_

Command line
============

* Order lifecycle commands in the sequence they run rather than alphabetically
in help messages.

* Show positional arguments in help messages.

* Hide the terminal cursor when Snapcraft is running.

* Fix a bug where the version and path to the log file were logged multiple
times.

* Fix a bug where deprecated commands were suggested when an invalid command
was entered (`canonical/craft-cli#297`_).

Init
====

* Add a ``<project-dir>`` argument to initialise the project in a particular
directory.

* Add a ``--name <name>`` argument to set the ``name`` key in the initialised
``snapcraft.yaml``. If ``--name`` isn't provided, the name of the project
directory or current working directory is used.

* Add a ``--profile <profile>`` argument to initialise a project for a specific
purpose. Currently, only the ``simple`` profile is supported.

Store
=====

* Add support for ``registries`` with new commands ``list-registries`` and
``edit-registries``.

* Add support for specifying components in a validation set when using the
``edit-validation-sets`` command.

Documentation
=============

* Add :doc:`reference</reference/linters>` for linters.

* Update the ``HACKING`` doc with instructions for how to use ``tox``.

* Hide subheadings in the changelog's table of contents.

* Add :doc:`reference</reference/plugins/poetry_plugin>` for
the Poetry plugin.

* Fix an issue where the auto-generated command reference wasn't rendered
correctly.
