## 2021-03-31 v0.9
## 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.
