Shkarko Bicep CLI 0.49.2

Features and bug fixes
CLI and module restore
- Add --config <path> to the Bicep CLI (#20412)
- Use the specified configuration instead of bicepconfig.json discovery for every file loaded by the command, including the entrypoint, local modules, and using targets.
bicep build main.bicep --config bicepconfig.prod.json
- Support extends and merge the configuration over the built-in defaults. A missing file fails the command rather than falling back to discovery. See REP 0029.
// bicepconfig.prod.json
{
"extends": "./bicepconfig.json",
"analyzers": {
"core": {
"rules": {
"no-unused-params": { "level": "error" }
}
}
}
}
- Retry previously failed modules on a forced restore (#20472)
- "Restore Bicep Modules (Force)" and bicep restore --force now retry recently failed modules instead of continuing to report the earlier failure.
Linting and version constraints
- Add linter rules for cross-file bicep.version constraints (#20337)
- no-conflicting-version-constraints (error by default): report when no single Bicep version satisfies the constraints across an entrypoint and its local modules.
- no-incompatible-entrypoint-version (warning by default): report when the entrypoint's constraint allows a version that a referenced file rejects.
- Suppress redundant BCP104 diagnostics in VS Code when a referenced file's only error is a version constraint mismatch (BCP456) (#20388)
- Update deployment script Az PowerShell guidance (#20396)
- Raise the linter's default minimum version to 15.0 and use version 16.2 in the deployment script snippet.
Visualizer
- Add support for matching the active VS Code color theme (#20395)
- Enable with the new bicep.visualizer.matchColorTheme setting (off by default).
- Add collapsible modules and improve edge rendering (#20409, #20442, #20467)
- Collapse a module into a single card and expand it again without editing the Bicep source. Both actions support undo.
- Draw edges below the nodes they connect rather than over unrelated nodes.
- Add support for expanding registry modules published with source (#20471)
- Restore registry modules on demand when expanded, and open their published source when a node is selected.
Compiler and decompilation
- Block @sealed() on resource-derived types accessed through expressions, aliases, and imports (#20389)
- These previously compiled to templates that rejected every non-empty value at deployment time.
- Fix the WebAssembly decompilation API to return all generated files, not just the entrypoint (#20387)
Dependencies
- Update Azure Deployments packages to 1.812.0 (#20444)
