Changelog

Fixes issue with the types of the path.appData function. Now has the correct overloads.

Changelog

• Fixes waitForRootDid retry issues. The function did not make enough attempts nor did it make them frequently enough.
• Moves shareLink function to common/fission for reachability.
• Improve capabilities documentation.

Full rewrite of webnative. 🎉

Components

We've moved to a component system to make webnative more customizable and indepent of Fission infrastructure. The system removes all global state, avoiding bundler issues. We previously had dependency injection; this is basically more of the same without global state.

The documentation should give you some information on how the various components fit together. If you want to write implementations for a component, see the directories in src/components (or the lib folder). All existing components have been expanded and refactored, and we've introduced the following:

• Introduction of a depot component: All IPFS functionality has been moved into here. Can now be swapped out with something else. Note that webnative still uses CIDs & IPLD.
• Introduction of a reference component: Data root lookups & updating, DID root lookups, DNS and various repositories (cid log & UCANs) have been moved in here.
• Introduction of a manners component: Debug functionality has moved to here.
• Introduction of a capabilities components: Responsible for accepting UCANs and filesystem secrets from external sources (eg. Fission Lobby)

Improvements

• The program function now serves as the single entrypoint. You can customise all components and configuration via this function. It'll give you a Program with possibly a Session (and many other things) instead of the State we had before. Basically, when you get a session you're "logged in", otherwise you're not.
• Webnative can now have many apps run on the same domain without any conflicts. This should help a lot when developing apps on the same localhost port. All storage and filesystems are namespaced by default.
• When loading a filesystem the data root is tried multiple times (to get around the DNS issue)
• Multiple filesystems can be loaded at the same time (conflicts with identifiers have been resolved), which allows for a temporary filesystem (progressive login).

(Re)moved

• Removal of various confusing filesystem parameters, all data and read keys are Uint8Arrays now.
• Removal of the webnative.initialise, app and permissionedApp functions. These have been replaced by the program function mentioned above.
• Removal of the fs.appPath function, replaced with the appData function located in the path module.
• Removal of the fs.addPublicExchangeKey and fs.hasPublicExchangeKey functions, replaced with non-class-instance functions located in fs/data.js.

Changelog

• Bugfixes 🐛
  • Fixes LinkError: import object field '__wbg_putBlock_88cdb3be9020efb7' is not a Function when loading WASM.

Changelog

  • Made email an optional field when registering users
  • Added dependency injection for DNS lookups
  • EXPERIMENTAL: Enable new EXPERIMENTAL public file system version 3.0.0 using rs-wnfs. Use this for experimentation. File system version 3.0.0 will have breaking changes. 🧪🐉

  Apps will need to update to this webnative version to load migrated/new filesystems.
• CID strings have been replaced with CID class instances from the multiformats library.

Features

• Adds ability to share private files.
• Adds soft/symbolic links.
• Adds dependency injection for initialising and registering accounts.

Not goat, not lion, not dragon, yet all. The chimera swept down upon them from the gloom and fog, claiming the night.

Changelog

Fixes compilation issues with several bundlers.

More details here.

Changelog

• Breaking changes ❤️‍🩹
  • Updated keystore-idb to v0.15.0, which renamed publicReadKey() to publicExchangeKey() (among other functions). The read key-pair is now properly named the exchange key-pair.
• Features ✨
  • Added the fs.addPublicExchangeKey() function which adds the public exchange key of that domain/browser/device to your filesystem at /public/.well-known/exchange/DID_KEY. Along with the fs.hasPublicExchangeKey() to check if it's there.
• Bugfixes 🐛
  • Made the login low more resilient. Should work better with extensions triggering postMessages now.

Release Mascot

The woeful banshee is a spiteful creature formed from the spirit of a female elf. Its face is wreathed in a wild tangle of hair, its body clad in wispy rags that flutter and stream around it.

Changelog

• Bugfixes 🐛
  • Fixed webnative.apps.index(). This method now returns a list of domains, along with their insertedAt and modifiedAt ISO8601 timestamps.
  • Fixed webnative.apps.deleteByDomain() so it aligns with backend changes.

Release Mascot

The wizard stood before us, and sprung from her finger snap a terrifying flaming man, borne from the planes of fire.
