Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

Unreleased

Added

  • New bootstrap option for Waku.create to easily connect to Waku nodes upon start up.

Changed

  • Renamed discover.getStatusFleetNodes to discovery.getBootstrapNodes; Changed the API to allow retrieval of bootstrap nodes from other sources.
  • Examples: Renamed eth-dm to eth-pm: "Direct Message" can lead to confusion with "Direct Connection" that refers to low latency network connections.

Removed

  • Examples (cli-chat): The focus of this library is Web environment; Several examples now cover usage of Waku Relay and Waku Store making cli-chat example obsolete; web-chat POC should be preferred to use the TOY-CHAT protocol.
  • ChatMessage has been moved from js-waku to web-chat example; it is a type used for the TOY-CHAT protocol; js-waku users should not build on top if this toy protocol and instead design message data structures appropriate to their use case.

Added

0.10.0 - 2021-08-06

Added

  • Relay and ReactJS guides and examples (#56).

Changed

  • Breaking: The WakuMessage APIs have been changed to move contentTopic out of the optional parameters.
  • Breaking: Move contentTopics out the WakuStore.queryHistory's optional parameters.
  • Breaking: WakuStore.queryHistory throws when encountering an error instead of returning a null value.

Removed

  • Examples (web-chat): Remove broken /fleet command.
  • Breaking: Removed DefaultContentTopic as developers must choose a content topic for their app; recommendations for content topic can be found at https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/23/.

Fixed

  • WakuMessage.payloadAsUtf8 returning garbage on utf-8 non-ascii characters.
  • ChatMessage.payloadAsUtf8 returning garbage on utf-8 non-ascii characters.

0.9.0 - 2021-07-26

Changed

  • Breaking: Store Response Protobuf changed to align with nim-waku v0.5 (nim-waku#676).

0.8.1 - 2021-07-16

Added

  • Examples (web-chat): New /fleet command to switch connection between Status prod and test fleets.
  • Export generatePrivateKey and getPublicKey directly from the root.
  • Usage of the encryption and signature APIs to the readme.
  • Support multiple protocol ids for Waku Relay, allowing interoperability with nim-waku v0.4 and latest master (#238).

Changed

  • Breaking: Renamed WakuRelay.(add|delete)PrivateDecryptionKey to WakuRelay.(add|delete)DecryptionKey to make it clearer that it accepts both symmetric keys and asymmetric private keys.
  • Upgrade libp2p to 0.32.0.
  • Breaking: Rename keepAlive option to pingKeepAlive.
  • Introduced new relayKeepAlive option on Waku with a default to 59s to send ping messages over relay to ensure the relay stream stays open. This is a workaround until js-libp2p#744 is done as there are issues when TCP(?) timeouts and the stream gets closed (#185, js-libp2p#939)

Fixed

  • Align WakuMessage readme example with actual code behaviour.
  • Remove infinite loop when an error with Waku Store is encountered.

0.8.0 - 2021-07-15

Added

  • WakuRelay.deleteObserver to allow removal of observers, useful when a React component add observers when mounting and needs to delete it when unmounting.
  • Keep alive feature that pings host regularly, reducing the chance of connections being dropped due to idle. Can be disabled or default frequency (10s) can be changed when calling Waku.create.
  • New lib/utils module for easy, dependency-less hex/bytes conversions.
  • New peers and randomPeer methods on WakuStore and WakuLightPush to have a better idea of available peers; Note that it does not check whether Waku node is currently connected to said peers.
  • Enable passing decryption private keys to WakuStore.queryHistory.
  • Test: Introduce testing in browser environment (Chrome) using Karma.
  • Add support for Waku Message version 1: Asymmetric encryption, symmetric encryption, and signature of the data.

Changed

  • Breaking: Auto select peer if none provided for store and light push protocols.
  • Upgrade to libp2p@0.31.7 and libp2p-gossipsub@0.10.0 to avoid TextEncoder errors in ReactJS tests.
  • Disable keep alive by default as latest nim-waku release does not support ping protocol.
  • Breaking: Optional parameters for WakuMessage.fromBytes and WakuMessage.fromUtf8String are now passed in a single Options object.
  • Breaking: WakuMessage static functions are now async to allow for encryption and decryption.
  • Breaking: WakuMessage constructor is now private, from* and decode* function should be used.
  • WakuMessage version 1 is partially supported, enabling asymmetrical encryption and signature of messages; this can be done by passing keys to WakuMessage.from* and WakuMessage.decode* methods.
  • Examples (eth-dm): Use Waku Message version 1 encryption scheme instead of eth-crypto.
  • Examples (eth-dm): Use Protobuf for direct messages instead of JSON (#214).

Fixed

  • Disable keepAlive if set to 0.

0.7.0 - 2021-06-15

Changed

  • Test: Upgrade nim-waku node to v0.4.
  • Waku Light Push upgraded to 2.0.0-beta1.
  • Examples (web chat): Catch error if chat message decoding fails.
  • Examples (web chat): Do not send message if shift/alt/ctrl is pressed, enabling multiline messages.

0.6.0 - 2021-06-09

Changed

  • Breaking: Websocket protocol is not automatically added anymore if the user specifies a protocol in libp2p.modules when using Waku.create.
  • Breaking: Options passed to Waku.create used to be passed to Libp2p.create; Now, only the libp2p property is passed to Libp2p.create, allowing for a cleaner interface.
  • Examples (cli chat): Use tcp protocol instead of websocket.

Added

  • Enable access to WakuMessage.timestamp.
  • Examples (web chat): Use WakuMessage.timestamp as unique key for list items.
  • Doc: Link to new topic guidelines in README.
  • Doc: Link to Waku v2 Toy Chat specs in README.
  • Examples (web chat): Persist nick.
  • Support for custom PubSub Topics to Waku, WakuRelay, WakuStore and WakuLightPush; Passing a PubSub Topic is optional and still defaults to /waku/2/default-waku/proto; JS-Waku currently supports one, and only, PubSub topic per instance.

0.5.0 - 2021-05-21

Added

  • Implement Waku v2 Light Push protocol.
  • Expose Direction enum from js-waku root (it was only accessible via the proto module).
  • Examples (cli chat): Use light push to send messages if --lightPush is passed.
  • Examples (cli chat): Print usage if --help is passed.

0.4.0 - 2021-05-18

Added

  • callback argument to WakuStore.queryHistory(), called as messages are retrieved ; Messages are retrieved using pagination, and it may take some time to retrieve all messages, with the callback function, messages are processed as soon as they are received.

Changed

  • Testing: Upgrade nim-waku node to v0.3.
  • Breaking: Modify WakuStore.queryHistory() to accept one Object instead of multiple individual arguments.
  • getStatusFleetNodes return prod nodes by default, instead of test nodes.
  • Examples (web chat): Connect to prod fleet by default, test fleet for local development.
  • Examples (cli chat): Connect to test fleet by default, use --prod to connect to prod fleet.

Fixed

  • Expose Enviroment and Protocol enums to pass to getStatusFleetNodes.

0.3.0 - 2021-05-15

Added

  • getStatusFleetNodes to connect to Status' nim-waku nodes.

Changed

  • Clarify content topic format in README.md.

Removed

  • Unused dependencies.

0.2.0 - 2021-05-14

Added

  • WakuRelay.getPeers method.
  • Use WakuRelay.getPeers in web chat app example to disable send button.

Changed

  • Enable passing strings to addPeerToAddressBook.
  • Use addPeerToAddressBook in examples and usage doc.
  • Settle on js-waku name across the board.
  • Breaking: RelayDefaultTopic renamed to DefaultPubsubTopic.

0.1.0 - 2021-05-12
