1.11.5

Noteworthy Changes

• Normalize construction of user facing enums (#1534)

  All user-facing enums have been revisited to be more in line with usual TypeScript conventions, rather than sticking to Temporal's Protobuf enum definitions.

  In short, that means:

  • No more redundant prefixes on enum values;
  • No more UNSPECIFIED values — TypeScript's undefined already means that;
  • Enum types are now string unions, and users may choose to provide the string value directly.

  For example:

      await startChild(sleep, {
  -     parentClosePolicy: ParentClosePolicy.PARENT_CLOSE_POLICY_ABANDON,
      
  +     parentClosePolicy: ParentClosePolicy.ABANDON,
          /* or even */
  +     parentClosePolicy: 'ABANDON',
      });

  Built-time compatibility is preserved for enum values that existed before. For example, code using ParentClosePolicy.PARENT_CLOSE_POLICY_ABANDON will still compile, but a deprecation will be reported.

  💥 Compile-time backward compatibility is only preserved for enums that were imported from user facing packages, such as @temporalio/common, @temporalio/client and @temporalio/workflow. Enum definitions imported directly from the @temporalio/proto package may no longer compile.

Features

Resource-based Worker Auto-tuning (EXPERIMENTAL)

Experimental support for worker tuning has been added along with an implementation for auto-tuning based on available
resources. WorkerOptions now has a tuner field that can be set to a WorkerTuner. This is composed of SlotSuppliers, of which currently FixedSize and ResourceBased are available. ResourceBased tuners change the number of available slots dynamically based on resource usage. For some examples of initializing the worker tuner, see here.

At some point the SlotSupplier interface will be manually implementable, but only fixed-size and resource-based slot suppliers are currently supported. Custom slot suppliers will appear in the future.

This SDK API is experimental and may change in incompatible ways in the future.

• [workflow] Unify GRPC::CANCELED and DEADLINE_EXCEEDED in an SDK Timeout exception for Update (#1452)
• [workflow] Expose updateId to update handlers (#1450)
• [workflow] Add upsert memo command (#1321)

Miscellaneous Tasks

• Bump GHA runner for stress tests (#1492)

Client

• Make gRPC INTERNAL status retryable (#1455)
