## :fire: Breaking changes

- Minimum version of TypeScript version is now 2.1.0 (#2425)
- The severity level of rules are now configurable and defaults to severity "error". This affects the output of formatters:
    - [formatter] `msbuild` was outputting all failures as "warning".
    - [formatter] `pmd` was outputting all failures as priority 1. Now, it uses _priority 3_ for "error" (default) and _priority 4_ for "warning"
- [formatter] `json` changed the `fix` property to now contain either one replacement or an array of replacements (#2403)
- `tslint:recommended` configuration updated with `tslint:latest` rules & options (#2424)
- Removed `no-unused-new` rule, with logic moved into `no-unused-expression` (#2269)
- `no-trailing-whitespace` now checks template strings by default. Use the new options `ignore-template-strings` to restore the old behavior. (#2359)

### API breaks for custom rules

- Removed method `skip` from `RuleWalker` (#2313)
- Removed all use of the TypeScript Language Service, use only Program APIs instead (#2235)

    - This means that some rules that previously worked without the type checker _now require it_. This includes:
        - `no-unused-variable`
        - `no-use-before-declare`

    - This breaks custom rule compilation. If your rule was not using the `ts.LanguageService` APIs, the migration is quite simple:

    ```diff
    - public applyWithProgram(srcFile: ts.SourceFile, langSvc: ts.LanguageService): Lint.RuleFailure[] {
    -     return this.applyWithWalker(new Walker(srcFile, this.getOptions(), langSvc.getProgram()));
    + public applyWithProgram(srcFile: ts.SourceFile, program: ts.Program): Lint.RuleFailure[] {
    +     return this.applyWithWalker(new Walker(srcFile, this.getOptions(), program));
    ```

    - N.B. If you are refactoring your custom rules, consider [these performance tips for writing custom rules](https://palantir.github.io/tslint/develop/custom-rules/performance.html).

- Removed `createFix`. Replacements should be passed directly into addFailure. (#2403)
- Removed deprecated `scanAllTokens` and `skippableTokenAwareRuleWalker` (#2370)

## :tada: Notable features & enhancements

- [feature] The severity level of rules are now individually configurable. Default severity can also be configured.  (#629, #345)

    - Valid values for `severity`: `default` | `error | warn | warning | none | off`
    - Valid values for `defaultSeverity`: `error | warn | warning | none | off`
    - Old style:

    ```json
    {
        "extends": "tslint:latest",
        "rules": {
            "callable-types": true,
            "max-line-length": [true, 140]
        }
    }
    ```

    - New style (in this example, `callable-types` outputs errors and `max-line-length` outputs warnings):

    ```json
    {
        "extends": "tslint:latest",
        "defaultSeverity": "error",
        "rules": {
            "callable-types": true,
            "max-line-length": {
                "options": 140,
                "severity": "warning"
            }
        }
    }
    ```
