Breaking changes

(#774) Animation class no longer has a finished property because an animation can be played multiple times. The play method now returns a new promise each time it is invoked. Use this to listen for the animation finishing or being cancelled. When upgrading to version 1.4.0 or above, simply remove .finished from your code.

Old Code (JavaScript):

animation1.play().finished.then(function () { console.log("Finished"); });

New Code (JavaScript):

animation1.play().then(function () { console.log("Finished"); });

Old Code (TypeScript):

animation1.play().finished.then(()=>console.log("Finished"));

New Code (JavaScript):

animation1.play().then(()=>console.log("Finished"));

Breaking changes

(#242) View and GesturesObserver classes have some breaking changes related to gesture operations

1.0.0 (2015, April 29)

New

New options for camera module. Added a resizing options along with keep-aspect-ratio options. More information about how to use it can be found at the dedicated camera help article.
First-file search order changed. Now package.json is searched first, then index.js and bootstrap.js is being searched last.

Fixed

Taking a full size picture in Android with NativeScript camera module.
Pages no longer freeze on cancelling back-navigation via swipe gesture.
Items having verticalAlignment set to center now have correct layout bounds.
Camera for iOSs no longer throws a Null pointer error.
iOS dialog OK button now appears last.

Breaking changes

image-cache now stores native image instances, i.e., android.graphics.Bitmap or UIImage.
Image.src property is now of type any and can accept either a string containing an image url or a native image instance.
Gesture-related enum values changed to start with a small letter in order to be consistent with all other enums within NativeScript. For example, "gesturesModule.GestureType.Tap" should be used like "gesturesModule.GestureType.tap".
knownEvents modules within all UI controls are removed and replaced with a static string values. In that case, all possible events will be visible through the inheritance tree. These static strings have an Event suffix. Every place where viewModule.knownEvents.loaded is used should be changed to viewModule.View.loadedEvent or pageModule.Page.loadedEvent. This change is relevant to code-behind only (xml declaration will not be affected).

0.10.0 (2015, April 17)

Fixed

New

In addition to binding converters introduced in version 0.42 static (global) place for most common converters is added. This place is named application.resources. More information about how to use it can be found in the special help topic: Data binding.
Using plain objects (numbers, strings also an entire object) as binding context via $value. More information can be found at the dedicated Data binding help topic.

Breaking changes

Image: url property renamed to src.
Image: source property renamed to imageSource.
TabView: TabEntry renamed to TabViewItem.
Module local-settings changed to application-settings. Only the name of the module is changed (API remains the same), hence the require statements must be updated, i.e., require("local-settings") should be changed to require("application-settings").
