2.4.0

Changes:

• Add net6.0 targeting for various core libraries and test projects.
• New AssetModelManager class in DataCore.Adapter library, to assist with managing in-memory asset models.
• Adapters that implement IConfigurationChanges can now easily integrate their implementation with AssetModelManager and TagManager.
• New IKeyValueStore implementations that use JSON files and Sqlite for storage respectively.
• IKeyValueStore has been simplified, with reading/writing of generic types moved to extension methods.
• KV stores derived from KeyValueStore base class can now use built-in support for compressing/decompressing values with gzip during write and read operations.
• New .NET SDK template for creating an adapter hosted in an ASP.NET Core minimal API application.

2.4.0-rc1

Slowly meandering towards a 2.4.0 release. This release contains significant improvements to the dotnet new project template.

Changes:

• #180
• #181
• #183
• #184

2.4.0-beta.756

Changes:

• #179: Async subscription improvements. Contains some breaking changes but these will likely not affect existing implementations.

2.4.0-beta.753

Changes:

• #178: AdapterTestsBase unit test helper class now defines BeforeAdapterTestAsync and AfterAdapterTestAsync methods to allow additional customisation of adapter unit tests.

2.4.0-beta.750

Changes:

• #177: AssetModelManager constructor now accepts an optional IComparer<string> that can be used to customise the sort order of nodes in browse and search operations.

2.4.0-beta.746

Breaking Changes:

• #176: Method signatures on IKeyValueStore have been simplified.

Other Changes:

• #175: File system key-value store now maintains a separate in-memory index (that is also persisted to disk on change) instead of naming files using the key.
• #176: Stores derived from KeyValueStore can now use built-in support for compressing/decompressing values using gzip.

2.4.0-beta.741

Breaking Changes:

• #174: refactors IKeyValueStore and moves writing/reading of generic types to extension methods.

Other Changes:

• Adds Sqlite and file system IKeyValueStore implementations.

2.4.0-beta.738

Changes:

• #173: AssetModelManager and TagManager constructors now accept an optional delegate that is called when an asset model node/tag is added, updated, or deleted in its associated manager class. This allows adapters that implement the IConfigurationChanges feature to pipe changes form a manager class to the feature directly, without having to generate the configuration changes themselves.
  • Static helper methods exist on both classes to simplify the creation of a compatible delegate using an instance of the ConfigurationChanges class.

2.4.0-beta.734

See alpha release notes for details.

2.4.0-alpha.726

Changes:

• Add net6.0 targeting for ASP.NET Core libraries and tests.
• Add AssetModelManager to DataCore.Adapter library, to assist with creation of in-memory asset models.
• Upgrade build tools to use Cake 2.0.0.
