beady-eye v0.36.0
Name a bead, get a link: in beady-eye 0.36, the bead window lists the beads its description mentions
This post is more than a year old. It describes beady-eye v0.36.0; the latest release notes say what has changed since.
Write a bead’s id into another bead’s description, and
beady-eye 0.36.0 makes it a row you can follow. Open a bead and a new
MENTIONS section at the bottom of its window lists every
bead the description names. Follow one with Enter or a click, as you
would a parent or a dependency.
brew upgrade codeforbreakfast/tap/bdi

cargo install beady-eyeMENTIONS, and following the dairy bead shows the
day it comes back.

Back on the menu on the sixth
A deferred bead’s window now says the date it comes back, on a row of its own under the bead’s other dates. The snowflake tells you it is on ice. The window now tells you for how long.
The right kitchen’s order
A dependency on <project>:<id> now waits on
the bead in the project it names. A bead waiting on another
project’s bead used to read as ready. It now waits, even where
another project holds the same id. A project name your config does
not list is reported as unconfigured.
Before you upgrade
A project whose .envrc direnv will not load is now
unavailable, where bdi used to read it with whatever bd
and credentials it was started with. Allow the .envrc,
or drop direnv exec . from that project’s config.
The release notes cover this, the events_journal
key, a colour for open ids, and fixes to bdi gates and
the watcher.
Two names on the ticket. Both on the pass. Order up.
