Restore behavior where the absence of a platform key in the MenuItem platforms dictionary disables shortcut creation for that platform. (#234, #240 via #350)

Restore menuinst.default.json and menuinst.schema.json to prevent errors during conda update. (#358 via #359)

Enhancements

Version the JSON schema using SchemaVer. Current version is 1-1-0. Previous versions are still available as 1-0-0 (as published in menuinst v2.0.0), 1-0-1 (as published in menuinst v2.1.0), and 1-0-2 (as published in menuinst v2.2.0) (#288)
Add activator for env files generated by conda 25.3+. (#321 via #330)

Bug fixes

Make sure the Pydantic field descriptions make it to the generated JSON schema. (#281)
Use $schema to indicate which schema will validate the menuinst shortcut. This means that menuinst shortcuts must now include a $schema key pointing to a URL containing the relevant menuinst JSON schema version. (#282 via #283, #313)
Remove quotes around SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION recipe variable. (#317)

Deprecations

$id key is no longer required in the schema, and is now deprecated. (#282 via #283)

Other

Add setuptools_scm to build recipe. (#309)
Replace deprecated run_command function with conda_cli. (#310)
Use ruff for linting and formatting. (#315, #318)
Check and pretty-format JSON files. (#315)
Increase timeout for Windows shortcuts tests to 30 seconds. (#319)

https://github.com/conda/menuinst - 2.0.0

menuinst v2 is a backwards compatible rewrite of v1 that adds a new JSON document standard with multiplatform support. Some highlights:

Single unified JSON document for Windows, Linux and macOS, as introduced in CEP-11
Backwards compatible API with v1-style JSON documents
Support for file extension (e.g. .png) and URL protocol (e.g. menuinst://) association
Rewritten documentation

Enhancements

Add support for file extension and URL protocol association on Windows. (#117)
Add support for URL protocol and file type association in all operating systems. Adds tests and examples. (#118 via #119, #135)
Add app_user_model_id field on Windows shortcuts to group taskbar icons together. (#127 via #133)
Enable automatic elevation on Unix platforms too, and add tests. (#137 via #138, #139)
Add recipe and CI workflow steps to build and upload canaries to conda-canary. (#144, #145, #149)
Implement auto-elevation logic in Unix systems so it doesn't depend on pre-existing .nonadmin files. (#150 via #156)

Bug fixes

Ensure some v1-only import paths are still available for backwards compatibility. (#151)
Do not capitalize ${DISTRIBUTION_NAME} in v1-style menuinst JSON documents. (#153)

Docs

Create Sphinx-based documentation following community practices (constructor, conda-libmamba-solver). Absorbs and updates the existing info in wiki and non-deployed docs. (#112)
Add development documentation. (#131)

Other

Enable and apply pre-commit with isort/flake8/black. (#116, #125)
Adjust workflows to only target main after merging the cep-devel branch. (#141)
Move cwp.py from the repository root to menuinst._legacy subpackage. It's still shipped to %PREFIX% in the conda package. (#145)

This release attempts to fall back to user-level directories for shortcuts when system-wide directories are off-limits.

This situation comes up with Anaconda and Miniconda: if the initial installation is system-wide, then shortcuts will be placed in a location that requires elevation. This release should address that condition: shortcuts will instead be installed to the current user's personal collection of start menu shortcuts, and a warning is printed to the console.

This should fix many failed conda update calls.
