1.3.6

This release contains the following fixes/new features.

#268 - Race condition in AuthenticationGenerator affecting token generation.
#269 - Adds CORS headers before error handling to ensure clients using RS can read the response error.
#267 - Support for deploying multiple blocks in the Launcher
#266 - Expose the deployed blocks from the LaunchContext.
#265 - Fix: Launcher ignores the deployment argument for blocks.
#264 - API support for registering multiple metric reporters.
#263 - Upgraded all dependencies.
#262 - Exposes the dropwizard API through the MetricCollector on the CoreContext.
#261 - Configurable metrics snapshot to reduce overhead.
#260 - Allow enabling ALPN (h2c) without enabling security.
#259 - Support for passing implementation specific properties through StorageLoader/StorageContext
#258 - Support for registering complex metadata on the Logger implementation.
#257 - Fix: JsonItem copy constructor was not implemented. (renamed JsonItem -> JsonStorable)

1.3.5

#270 - Fix: poor exception handling when using Java reflection.

1.3.4

#271 - add setAccessible in Protocol for performance.

1.3.3

• Fixed an issue in Token where expiry would was eagerly set - causing issues in environments which weren't running chili-core but only consuming the com.github.codingchili.core.security.Token. (This triggered some native libraries to load for logging - which doesn't work on Android.)

1.3.2

Changes

• support for J14
• support reuse of commandline parser.

1.3.0

Changes

• updated Elasticsearch high-level transport client from 7.0.0a -> 7.3.0.
• updated vert.x dependency from 3.7.1 to 3.8.0.
• New Handler for context#blocking calls.
• Indexes are no longer automatically added when queried.
• New API in AsyncStorage addIndex(String path) to add indexes.
• Upgraded to CQEngine 3.4.0 with fixes for performance/concurrency.

Changes to how indexes are added will improve performance and fix some issues caused by disk indexes not being reloaded at startup. To make sure it works as expected call addIndex before adding any items, or make sure to call IndexedMapPersisted.reindex() before instantiating the disk persistence plugin - which will cause a reindex when the indexes are added.

See npgall/cqengine#242 for more information.

1.2.0

Changes from 1.1.4

Persistence

• Always close the CQEngine ResultSet - recommended for DiskPersistence.
• Improved reflection performance of Serializer::getValueByPath by 4.5x.

• AsyncStorage::values now returns a lazily evaluated Stream.

Context

• Add a testcase to verify that the blocking pool is not exhausted.
• Moved shutdown hook to context and made it complete without waiting.
