Changelog

Version 0.4.1 ->

Action required: The server and client APIs have changed. Errors are now passed as the first argument to all callbacks. This means:

client.open('hello', 'text', function(doc, error) {
  // ...
});

becomes

client.open('hello', 'text', function(error, doc) {
  // ...
});

This change also affects the (undocumented) server APIs. Update your code!

• Renamed the 'listen' auth request to 'open'.
• Put a caching layer around the database, which reduces database server load and increases performance.
• CouchDB support! (Thanks @maxogden)
• JSON OT has a nice new API! (Thanks @nornagon)
• For consistency with nodejs, made all callback functions all pass an error as the first callback argument.
• Swapped from tabs to spaces project-wide.
• Removed the need to compile the server. The project now depends on coffeescript directly and is compiled as needed.

Version 0.4.0 -> 0.4.1

• Switched to from Closure to UglifyJS - Blog post
• Removed remotePort from auth's client object. (Its not actually useful). I know this changes the api, I'm naughty.
• Removed the junky comment header at the top of the compiled code
• Fixed running sharejs-exampleserver from the command line after installing sharejs globally.
• Added some missing tests (The people demand more tests!)
• Swapped across to node-hat for generating IDs

Version 0.3.0 -> 0.4.0

Action required: Anyone using the JSON type must explicitly include <script src='share/json.js'/>

Action required: Manually specifying a hostname to connect to is now in the new socket.io style. See client docs for details.

Action required: The optional version parameter on doc.submitOp has been removed, because it really doesn't seem useful. File an issue if I'm wrong.

• Improved support for sharejs types to live outside of the compiled code bundle.
• The JSON type now compiles separately (to json.js). This has reduced the standard share.js client size significantly (14k -> 9.5k).
• Renamed Document to Doc to avoid confusion with window.Document
• Changed the textarea code to use the new text API.
• ShareJS now uses socket.io 0.8 up from 0.6. Unfortunately, socket.io has lots of bugs related to connecting / disconnecting. If there are any more stable alternatives to socket.io, I'm happy to talk about moving.
• ShareJS now supports User access control!
• Connection.open now behaves better when the connection has been disconnected, or is disconnected while the document is being opened.
• REST options.delete has been removed in favor of specifying an authentication function.

Version 0.2.3 -> 0.3.0

Action required: Anyone using the ace editor should include <script src='share/ace.js'/> instead of <script src='share/share-ace.js'/>

• Added support for type-specific APIs to be added to Document. Blog post
• Added window.sharejs.version and require('share').version fields
• Added more tests for the closure compiled code
• Removed documentation in /docs (thats what the wiki is for)
• Rewrote ace editor code to use new text API instead of generating ops directly
• Updated to the most recent version of ace (Issue #21)
• Renamed share-ace.js to ace.js. Code using the ace editor should be updated. share-ace.js is still there for now, but it will be removed in a subsequent version of ShareJS.
