Changelog

Next version

• Refactor: Split out waku_types types into right place; create utils folder.
• Docs: Add information on how to query Status test fleet for node addresses; how to view logs and how to update submodules.
• PubSub topic subscribe and unsubscribe no longer returns a future (removed async designation)
• Added a peer manager for relay, filter, store and swap peers.
• relay, filter, store and swap peers are now stored in a common, shared peer store and no longer in separate sets.
• Admin API now provides a post method to connect to peers on an ad-hoc basis
• Added persistent peer storage. A node will now attempt to reconnect to relay peers after a restart.
• Changed contentTopic back to a string
• Fixed: content filtering now works on any PubSub topic and not just the waku default.
• Added the pubsubTopic field to the HistoryQuery. Now, the message history can be filtered and queried based on the pubsubTopic.
• Added a new table of Message to the message store db. The new table has an additional column of pubsubTopic and will be used instead of the old table messages. The message history in the old table messages will not be accessed and have to be removed.

2021-01-05 v0.2

This release contains the following changes:

• Calls to publish a message on wakunode2 now await instead of discard dispatched WakuRelay procedures.
• StrictNoSign enabled.
• Add JSON-RPC API for external access to wakunode2 functionality:
  • Admin API retrieves information about peers registered on the wakunode2.
  • Debug API exposes debug information about a wakunode2.
  • Filter API saves bandwidth by allowing light nodes to filter for specific content.
  • Private API enables symmetric or asymmetric cryptography to encrypt/decrypt message payloads.
  • Relay API allows basic pub/sub functionality.
  • Store API retrieves historical messages.
• Add tutorial on how to use JSON-RPC API.
• Refactor: Move waku_filter protocol into its own module.

The Waku v2 implementation, and most protocols it consist of, are still in a draft/beta state. The Waku v1 implementation is stable but not under active development.
