❗ BREAKING ❗

• rover-fed2 has been deprecated - @EverlastingBugstopper, #1058

  rover fed2 supergraph compose has been deprecated. You should instead set federation_version: 2 in your supergraph.yaml to use Federation 2 with the rover supergraph compose command.

🚀 Features

• rover supergraph compose optionally updates automatically - @EverlastingBugstopper, #1058 fixes #2046

  When running rover supergraph compose, Rover will automatically download the correct version of composition to use. In your supergraph.yaml files, you can specify federation_version: 1 or federation_version: 2 to always get the latest updates. You can pass the --skip-update flag to skip checking for an update. You can also specify an exact version if you'd like to pin your federation version, like so: federation_version: =2.0.0.

  Additionally, you can run rover install --plugin supergraph@latest-2 or rover install --plugin [email protected] to install a plugin ahead of time, which may be helpful in CI. For Federation 2, you'll have to accept the ELv2 license one time per machine. You likely want to set APOLLO_ELV2_LICENSE=accept in CI if you are using Federation 2.

• Adds --insecure-unmask-key to rover config whoami - @EverlastingBugstopper, #1043 fixes #1023

  Previously, running rover config whoami would output your entire API key to the terminal. This is not the documented behavior, and it is insecure because someone could be sharing their screen while trying to debug and accidentally leak their API key.

  Now, rover config whoami will mask your API key when it prints to the terminal. You can override this behavior by passing the --insecure-unmask-key flag.

• Retry on timeouts and connection errors - @ptondereau, #1014 fixes #790

  Rover will now automatically retry HTTP requests that fail due to timeouts or initial connection errors.

• Define an HTTP agent for non-studio requests - @ptondereau, #1075 fixes #961

  Rover now sends a User-Agent header along with all requests, not just requests to Apollo Studio.

• Adds support for HTTP(S) proxies in npm installer - @farawaysouthwest, #1067 fixes #899

  You can now install Rover from npm if you are behind a proxy.

🐛 Fixes

• Fixed a dead link in ARCHITECTURE.md - @ptondereau, #1053

🛠 Maintenance

• Simplify rover subgraph fetch query - @EverlastingBugstopper, #1056 fixes #992

  rover subgraph fetch now uses a much more efficient query that only requests a single subgraph at a time rather than all of them. Yay GraphQL!

• Upgrades apollo-encoder - @bnjjj, #1017 fixes #1010

📚 Documentation

• Set up new docs infrastructure - @trevorblades, #1051, #1052

  @trevorblades has done an awesome job setting up new docs for Apollo, including Rover! Check out the shiny new repo.
