KtIrc/CHANGELOG

vNEXT (in development)

v0.9.0

 * Improve DSL for creating an IrcClient to allow parameters to be passed to server and profile
   e.g. IrcClient { server("irc.example.com", 6667) }
 * Add behaviour options
   * requestModesOnJoin - automatically sends a MODE request when joining a channel
 * Events now have a `metadata` property instead of a `time` (and time is available in metadata)
   * IrcEvent.time is now deprecated but will remain until after v1.0.0.
   * Metadata now contains the message ID, if any.
     * ActionReceived.messageId and MessageReceived.messageId are now deprecated, to be removed after v1.0.0.
   * Metadata now contains the event's batch ID, if any.
 * Added support for batches
   * All events in a batch are buffered until the batch is finished
   * The events are then published together in a single `BatchReceived` event
 * Added support for CHGHOST messages
 * (Internal) Improve performance when the MessageHandler is finding a processor for a message
 * (Internal) Introduced event mutators
   * Event mutators are now responsible for handling changing events in response to state
     e.g. ChannelFanOutMutator creates Channel* events for global quits/nick changes/etc
   * Event handlers now just handle events, and don't return anything

v0.8.0

 * Added support for SCRAM-SHA-1 and SCRAM-SHA-256 SASL mechanisms
 * Added MotdLineReceived event

v0.7.0

 * Fixed experimental API warnings when using IrcClient
 * IrcClients are now constructed using a DSL
   * Users of the library no longer need to care about the implementing class
   * Facilitates adding more options in the future without breaking existing implementations
 * SASL improvements
   * The enabled mechanisms can now be configured (in the SASL DSL)
   * Added support for EXTERNAL mechanism, disabled by default
   * Now attempts to renegotiate if the server doesn't recognise the SASL mechanism that was tried
 * Added UserNickChanged and corresponding ChannelNickChanged events
 * Added ServerConnectionError, raised when connecting to the server fails
 * (Internal) Minor version updates for Gradle, Kotlin and JUnit

v0.6.0

 * Changed USER command to not send the server name, per modern standards
 * Added support for SASL authentication (with PLAIN mechanism)
 * Removed some unused test code
 * Fixed handling of user mode changes on channels (op/deop/etc)

    * Added support for IRCv3 message tags v3.3
    * Exposed message IDs in MessageReceived and ActionReceived events
    * When sending a message you can now indicate what it is in reply to
    * Added sendTagMessage() to send message tags without any content
    * The reply() utility automatically marks messages as a reply
    * Added react() utility to send a reaction client tag
 * State is now reset when the client is disconnected, so you can immediately reconnect
 * (Internal) improved how coroutines and channels are used in LineBufferedSocket

v0.5.0

 * Server state:
    * Added ServerConnecting and ServerDisconnected events
    * Server status now starts as Disconnected rather than Connecting
    * Improved error message when features are of an unexpected type

v0.3.1

  * Added more documentation to public methods/classes
  * Fixed exception when sending multiple lines at once (e.g. when connecting!)

v0.3.0

  * Simplified how messages are constructed.
    Instead of: client.send(joinMessage("#channel"))
    Now use: client.sendJoin("#channel")
  * Added reply utility to easily send replies to message events
  * Server state improvements:
    * Added status field to ServerState
    * ServerConnected event is emitted as soon as the socket is connected
    * ServerReady event is emitted after logging in, negotiating, etc
