Release: v2.0.0
Description
This is a major release and re-architecture of the Bloombox SDK for JavaScript. In many cases this upgrade will break calls into APIs like menu retrieval, shop operations, and telemetry transmission, so please test carefully before fully upgrading.
As part of the transitional release cycle (i.e. 2.0.x, pre 2.1.x), this version will maintain fallback code to the v1beta0-version API implementations. Once 2.1.x is pushed, it will no longer contain this fallback code. Earlier versions of the library will still work fine but won't be as fast ;).
Improvements
The version 2 re-architecture allows many improvements, most notably:
- Support for gRPC web, with binary proto encoding over the wire
- Much wider visibility for the compiler/optimizer
- Improved test-suite and resulting coverage
- Unified datamodel support, rather than a manually-maintained façade for API users
Known Issues
This v2 pre-release must only be used directly as sources. Public callers of the library won't find it useful yet. It is, however, compilable via Closure compiler, using goog primitives.
