Release Notes for v0.18.0

Bug Fixes

• make addLink() synchronous (7f1a00a), closes #128

Features

• make addLink()/rmLink() instance methods (a9aa0a0)
• remove cloning (d5e1135)
• remove DAGNode.create() (029174d), closes #132

Performance Improvements

• remove manual enumerability modifications (37ffdd5), closes #152
• remove named links from object (4dbe00d)

BREAKING CHANGES

• addLink() and rmLink() are now instance methods.

Prior to this change:

DAGNode.addLink(node, link)
DAGNode.rmLink(node, name)

Now:

node.addLink(link)
node.rmLink(name)

• It's no longer possible to pass a DAGNode into addLink().

Intead of passing in a DAGNode into addLink(), convert that node into
a DAGLink via toDAGLink().

Example:

Prior to this change:

const node = new DAGNode('some data')
const node2 = new DAGNode('use that as link')
await DAGNode.addLink(node, node2)

Now:

const node = new DAGNode('some data')
const node2 = new DAGNode('use that as link')
DAGNode.addLink(node, await node2.toDAGLink())

• DAGNode.create() is removed

Instead of DAGNode.create(), please use new DAGNode() instead. It
takes the same parameters and is compatible to create().

Example:

Prior to this change:

const node = DAGNode.create('some data', links)

Now:

const node = new DAGNode('some data', links)

• DAGNode.clone() is removed from public API without any replacement.

Also the API for rmLink() and addLink() changed. They no longer
return a new node, but just remove/add the links to/from the current
node.

Prior to this change:

const lessLinks = DAGNode.rmLink(node1, 'Link1')
node1 = lessLinks
const moreLinks = await DAGNode.addLink(node2, link)
node2 = moreLinks

Now:

DAGNode.rmLink(node, 'Link1')
await DAGNode.addLink(node2, link)

• named links are no longer part of an object

Access to named links is only possible with calling resolve().
Hence they are also not part of tree() anymore.

Named links are a feature of IPFS and only supported for
backwards compatibility, they are not really part of IPLD.

@vmx any chance you can help us migrate to this new version?

[vmx]

Sure. The work for UnixFS is already done, locally (I'm just waiting for a new js-ipld release to base those PRs on). I haven't looked into js-ipfs, yet. I'd do those once the UnixFS things are approved.

[vmx]

PRs so far:

• fix: update to newest IPLD libraries ipfs-inactive/js-ipfs-unixfs-importer#37
• fix: update to newest IPLD libraries ipfs-inactive/js-ipfs-unixfs-exporter#23
• fix: update to newest IPLD libraries ipfs-inactive/js-ipfs-mfs#57

[vmx]

So the changes for UnixFS were straight forward. The problem is js-ipfs. You also would want to upgrade ipld. But this means you also need to upgrade:

• ipfs-repo
• interface-datastore
• ipfs-blockservice

Those upgrades also need an upgrade of those dependencies in libp2p.

The unixfs-* and mfs PRs have all been merged & released.
