Release v1.6.0

Go Version

• 1.14.4

RES Protocol Version

• 1.2.1

Release info

This release introduces two new value types which have been requested by the community.

The first value type, soft resource references, enables links to resources which Resgate will not automatically embed in the response. Instead, the client can choose when (or if) the referenced resource is to be fetched.

The second value type, data values, allows for complex data such as objects, arrays, or deeply nested structures, to be used as values in a model or collection.

Features & improvements

• #157 Soft resource references
• #161 Unsubscribe count field
• #165 Data values
• #168 Updated to Go 1.14.4

Fixes

• #158 Incorrect pre-response detection

Release v1.5.0

Go Version

• 1.14.1

RES Protocol Version

• 1.2.0

Release info

This release contains improvements to HTTP(S) request handling.

Main features are CORS support, and handling of other request methods, such as PUT, DELETE, and PATCH. This allows us to create APIs that are 100% compatible with old legacy REST APIa, while getting the real-time benefits of having services communicating with messaging.

Features & improvements

• #141 CORS support
• #145 Clarification of add and remove event specification
• #150 HTTP method mapping
• #151 HTTP HEAD support
• #153 Updated to Go 1.14.1

Go Version

• 1.13.4

RES Protocol version

• v1.2.0

Release info

This patch release fixes a bug that might have affected those using the delete event introduced in v1.4.0.

Fixes

• #142 Delete event on resource queued for eviction causes crash

Release v1.4.0

Go Version

• 1.13.4

RES Protocol version

• v1.2.0

Release info

This release brings new functionality to Resgate and the RES protocol, while staying backwards compatible for both older services and clients.

• Query requests can now be responded to with the resource data, making handling queries easier and more efficient.
• Call (and auth) requests can now return a resource reference instead of just plain data.
• The create and delete events has been introduced.

Features & improvements

• #139 Updated to Go 1.13.4
• #127 Resource response on query request
• #83 Delete event
• #132 Create event
• #135 Resource response on call request
• #136 Protocol version request

Release v1.3.0

Go Version

• 1.13.1

RES Protocol version

• v1.1.1

Release info

Support for NATS user credentials expands the uses cases for Resgate, while backward compatible improvements to the protocol makes it easier for the services to handle query requests.

Both the migration to Go Modules and the RES Protocol Semantic Versioning makes it easier to know that a particular resgate version will work nicely with older services.

Features & improvements

• #108 Support for NATS user credentials
• #116 Migrated to Go Modules
• #118 Resgate version accessible through --version flag
• #121 Improved log output and added separate --trace flag

Protocol

• #110 Allow query on non-query requests
• #111 Added Invalid Query error
• #113 Defined RES Protocol Semantic Versioning

Fixes

• #112 Status code 404 for HTTP POST requests with Method not found error
• #114 Fixed race issue on request timeout leading to two responses
