  • Update SPA plugin's JS dependencies
  • Upgrade github.com/gobuffalo/packr to v2.8.0
  • Resolves a security issue in the packr dependency, which would allow an unauthenticated attacker to read any file from the application's filesystem

  • Adds --version flag to retrieve the GoShimmer version
  • Adds the version and commit hash to the remote log logging
  • Replaces the autopeering module with the one from hive.go

v0.1.1 - 2020-02-07

This release contains a series of fixes:

  • Adds logging of the underlying error when a neighbor connection couldn't be established
  • Adds the RemoteLog plugin (disabled per default) which sends log messages to a centralized logging service
  • Removes the status screen plugin in favor of the SPA/dashboard
  • Fixes the neighbor send queue being too small causing spam in the log

  • Fixes BufferedConnection's read and written bytes to be atomic

v0.1.0 - 2020-01-31

Note that this release is a complete breaking change, therefore node operators are instructed to upgrade.

This release mainly integrates the shared codebase between Hornet and GoShimmer called hive.go, to foster improvements in both projects simultaneously. Additionally, the autopeering code from autopeering-sim has been integrated into the codebase. For developers a Go client library is now available to communicate with a GoShimmer node in order to issue, get and search zero value transactions and retrieve neighbor information.

A detailed list about the changes in v0.1.0 can be seen under the given milestone.
