feat: reformatted error output

Rather than increasing indentation, dfx now aligns the error causes with a "Caused by: " prefix.

Also changed error types to report error causes as causes, rather than embedding their error cause in the error text.

Before:

Error: Failed while trying to deploy canisters.
Caused by: Failed while trying to deploy canisters.
  Failed to build all canisters.
    Failed while trying to build all canisters.
      The build step failed for canister 'bw4dl-smaaa-aaaaa-qaacq-cai' (wasminst_backend) with an embedded error: Failed to build Motoko canister 'wasminst_backend'.: Failed to compile Motoko.: Failed to run 'moc'.: The command '"/Users/ericswanson/.cache/dfinity/versions/0.19.0/moc" ... params ...  failed with exit status 'exit status: 1'.
Stdout:

Stderr:
/Users/ericswanson/w/wasminst/src/wasminst_backend/main2.mo: No such file or directory

After:

Error: Failed while trying to deploy canisters.
Caused by: Failed to build all canisters.
Caused by: Failed while trying to build all canisters.
Caused by: The build step failed for canister 'bw4dl-smaaa-aaaaa-qaacq-cai' (wasminst_backend)
Caused by: Failed to build Motoko canister 'wasminst_backend'.
Caused by: Failed to compile Motoko.
Caused by: Failed to run 'moc'.

Stdout:

Stderr:
/Users/ericswanson/w/wasminst/src/wasminst_backend/main2.mo: No such file or directory

fix: "Failed to decrypt PEM file" errors messages will now include the cause

feat: WASM memory soft-limit

Adds support for the wasm_memory_limit canister setting, which limits the canister's heap during most calls but does not affect queries. As with other canister settings, it can be set in dfx canister create or dfx canister update-settings via the --wasm-memory-limit flag, as well as in dfx.json under canisters[].initialization_values.wasm_memory_limit.

feat: extensions can define a canister type

Please see extension-defined-canister-types for details.

feat: init_arg_file in dfx.json

Introduces support for the init_arg_file field in dfx.json, providing an alternative method to specify initialization arguments.

This field accepts a relative path, from the directory containing the dfx.json file.

Note

  • Only one of init_arg and init_arg_file can be defined at a time.
  • If --argument or --argument-file are set, the argument from the command line takes precedence over the one in dfx.json.

fix: dfx new failure when node is available but npm is not

dfx new could fail with "Failed to scaffold frontend code" if node was installed but npm was not installed.
