## 2022-08-15 v0.11
Release highlights:
- Major improvements in the performance of historical message queries to longer-term, sqlite-only message stores.
- Introduction of an HTTP REST API with basic functionality
- On-chain RLN group management. This was also integrated into an [example spam-protected chat application](https://github.com/status-im/nwaku/blob/4f93510fc9a938954dd85593f8dc4135a1c367de/docs/tutorial/onchain-rln-relay-chat2.md).
The full list of changes is below.
### Features
- Support for on-chain group membership management in the [`17/WAKU-RLN-RELAY`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/17/) implementation.
- Integrated HTTP REST API for external access to some `wakunode2` functionality:
- Debug REST API exposes debug information about a `wakunode2`.
- Relay REST API allows basic pub/sub functionality according to [`11/WAKU2-RELAY`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/11/).
- [`35/WAKU2-NOISE`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/35/) implementation now adds padding to ChaChaPoly encryptions to increase security and reduce metadata leakage.
### Changes
- Significantly improved the SQLite-only historical message `store` query performance.
- Refactored several protocol implementations to improve maintainability and readability.
- Major code reorganization for the [`13/WAKU2-STORE`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/) implementation to improve maintainability. This will also make the `store` extensible to support multiple implementations.
2023-01-16 10:13:03 +00:00
- Disabled compiler log colors when running in a CI environment.
2022-08-15 13:46:17 +00:00
- Refactored [`35/WAKU2-NOISE`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/35/) implementation into smaller submodules.
- [`11/WAKU2-RELAY`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/11/) implementation can now optionally be compiled with [Zerokit RLN](https://github.com/vacp2p/zerokit/tree/64f508363946b15ac6c52f8b59d8a739a33313ec/rln). Previously only [Kilic's RLN](https://github.com/kilic/rln/tree/7ac74183f8b69b399e3bc96c1ae8ab61c026dc43) was supported.
### Fixes
- Fixed wire encoding of protocol buffers to use proto3.
- Fixed Waku v1 <> Waku v2 bridge losing connection to statically configured v1 nodes.
- Fixed underlying issue causing DNS discovery to fail for records containing multiple strings.
### Docs
- Updated [release process](https://github.com/status-im/nwaku/blob/4f93510fc9a938954dd85593f8dc4135a1c367de/docs/contributors/release-process.md) documentation.

2022-06-14 20:05:52 +00:00
## 2022-06-15 v0.10
Release highlights:
- Support for key exchange using Noise handshakes.
- Support for a SQLite-only historical message `store`. This allows for cheaper, longer-term historical message storage on disk rather than in memory.
- Several fixes for native WebSockets, including slow or hanging connections and connections dropping unexpectedly due to timeouts.
- A fix for a memory leak in nodes running a local SQLite database.
### Features
- Support for [`35/WAKU2-NOISE`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/35/) handshakes as key exchange protocols.
- Support for TOML config files via `--config-file=<path/to/config.toml>`.
- Support for `--version` command. This prints the current tagged version (or compiled commit hash, if not on a version).
- Support for running `store` protocol from a `filter` client, storing only the filtered messages.
- Start of an HTTP REST API implementation.
- Support for a memory-efficient SQLite-only `store` configuration.
### Changes
- Added index on `receiverTimestamp` in the SQLite `store` to improve query performance.
- GossipSub [Peer Exchange](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/pubsub/gossipsub/gossipsub-v1.1.md#prune-backoff-and-peer-exchange) is now disabled by default. This is a more secure option.
- Progress towards dynamic group management for the [`17/WAKU-RLN-RELAY`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/17/) implementation.
- Nodes with `--keep-alive` enabled now sends more regular pings to keep connections more reliably alive.
- Disabled `swap` protocol by default.
- Reduced unnecessary and confusing logging, especially during startup.
- Added discv5 UDP port to the node's main discoverable ENR.
### Fixes
- The in-memory `store` now checks the validity of message timestamps before storing.
- Fixed underlying bug that caused connection leaks in the HTTP client.
- Fixed Docker image compilation to use the correct external variable for compile-time flags (`NIMFLAGS` instead of `NIM_PARAMS`).
- Fixed issue where `--dns4-domain-name` caused an unhandled exception if no external port was available.
- Avoids unnecessarily calling DB migration if a `--db-path` is set but nothing is persisted in the DB. This led to a misleading warning log.
- Fixed underlying issues that caused WebSocket connections to hang.
- Fixed underlying issue that caused WebSocket connections to time out after 10 mins.
- Fixed memory leak in nodes that implements a SQLite database.
### Docs
- Added [tutorial](https://github.com/status-im/nwaku/blob/16dd267bd9d25ff24c64fc5c92a20eb0d322217c/docs/operators/how-to/configure-key.md) on how to generate and configure a node key.
- Added first [guide](https://github.com/status-im/nwaku/tree/16dd267bd9d25ff24c64fc5c92a20eb0d322217c/docs/operators) for nwaku operators.

### Fixes
2021-07-23 10:32:46 +00:00
- Conversion between topics for the Waku v1 <-> v2 bridge now follows the [RFC recommendation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/23/).
- Fixed field order of `HistoryResponse` protobuf message: the field numbers of the `HistoryResponse` are shifted up by one to match up the [13/WAKU2-STORE](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/) specs.

The [Waku v2 suite of protocols](https://rfc.vac.dev/) are still in a raw/draft state.
This release supports the following [libp2p protocols](https://docs.libp2p.io/concepts/protocols/):
| Protocol | Spec status | Protocol id |
| ---: | :---: | :--- |
| [`17/WAKU-RLN`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/17/) | `raw` | `/vac/waku/waku-rln-relay/2.0.0-alpha1` |

The Waku v1 implementation is stable but not under active development.
## 2021-05-11 v0.3
This release contains the following:
### Features
- Start of [`RLN relay` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/17/)
- Start of [`swap` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/18/)
- Start of [fault-tolerant `store` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/21/)
- Initial [`bridge` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/15/) between Waku v1 and v2 protocols
- Initial [`lightpush` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/19/)
- A peer manager for `relay`, `filter`, `store` and `swap` peers
- Persistent storage for peers: A node with this feature enabled will now attempt to reconnect to `relay` peers after a restart. It will respect the gossipsub [PRUNE backoff](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/pubsub/gossipsub/gossipsub-v1.1.md#prune-backoff-and-peer-exchange) period before attempting to do so.
- `--persist-peers` CLI option to persist peers in local storage
- `--persist-messages` CLI option to store historical messages locally
- `--keep-alive` CLI option to maintain a stable connection to `relay` peers on idle topics
- A CLI chat application ([`chat2`](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/tutorial/chat2.md)) over Waku v2 with [bridging to matterbridge](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/tutorial/chat2.md#bridge-messages-between-chat2-and-matterbridge)
### Changes
- Enable `swap` protocol by default and improve logging
#### General refactoring
- Split out `waku_types` types into the right place; create `utils` folder.
- Change type of `contentTopic` in [`ContentFilter`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/12/#protobuf) to `string`.
- Replace sequence of `contentTopics` in [`ContentFilter`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/12/#protobuf) with a single `contentTopic`.
- Add `timestamp` field to [`WakuMessage`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/14/#payloads).
- Ensure CLI config parameters use a consistent naming scheme. Summary of changes [here](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/pull/543).
#### Docs
Several clarifications and additions aimed at contributors, including
- information on [how to query Status test fleet](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/faq.md) for node addresses,
- [how to view logs](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/contributors/cluster-logs.md), and
- [how to update submodules](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/contributors/git-submodules.md).
#### Schema
- Add `Message` table to the persistent message store. This table replaces the old `messages` table. It has two additional columns, namely
- `pubsubTopic`, and
- `version`.
- Add `Peer` table for persistent peer storage.
#### API
- [JSON-RPC Admin API](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/16): Added a [`post` method](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/16/#post_waku_v2_admin_v1_peers) to connect to peers on an ad-hoc basis.
- [Nim API](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/api/v2/node.md): PubSub topic `subscribe` and `unsubscribe` no longer returns a future (removed `async` designation).
- [`HistoryQuery`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/#historyquery): Added `pubsubTopic` field. Message history can now be filtered and queried based on the `pubsubTopic`.
- [`HistoryQuery`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/#historyquery): Added support for querying a time window by specifying start and end times.
### Fixes
- Running nodes can now be shut down gracefully
- Content filtering now works on any PubSub topic and not just the `waku` default.
- Nodes can now mount protocols without supporting `relay` as a capability
The [Waku v2 suite of protocols](https://rfc.vac.dev/) are still in a raw/draft state.
This release supports the following [libp2p protocols](https://docs.libp2p.io/concepts/protocols/):
| Protocol | Spec status | Protocol id |
| ---: | :---: | :--- |
| [`17/WAKU-RLN`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/17/) | `raw` | `/vac/waku/waku-rln-relay/2.0.0-alpha1` |
| [`18/WAKU2-SWAP`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/18/) | `raw` | `/vac/waku/swap/2.0.0-alpha1` |
| [`19/WAKU2-LIGHTPUSH`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/19/) | `raw` | `/vac/waku/lightpush/2.0.0-alpha1` |
| [`11/WAKU2-RELAY`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/11/) | `draft` | `/vac/waku/relay/2.0.0-beta2` |
| [`12/WAKU2-FILTER`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/12/) | `draft` | `/vac/waku/filter/2.0.0-beta1` |
| [`13/WAKU2-STORE`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/) | `draft` | `/vac/waku/store/2.0.0-beta3` |
The Waku v1 implementation is stable but not under active development.
2021-01-06 06:49:28 +00:00
## 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`](https://github.com/vacp2p/specs/blob/master/specs/waku/v2/waku-relay.md) procedures.
- [`StrictNoSign`](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/tree/master/pubsub#message-signing) 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.
2021-01-06 06:49:28 +00:00
The Waku v2 implementation, and [most protocols it consist of](https://specs.vac.dev/specs/waku/),
