Fowl Releases

Stability: this is still a young project, all APIs should be considered unstable. That said, fowld input and output is intended to be stable and compatible.

Integration with other programs should use fowld exclusively.

Unreleased

  • (Put new changelog items here)

25.10.0: October 23, 2025

  • Add --version option to fowl and fowld
  • Do not fragment on Noise limits; wormhole does this
  • Keep closed streams around for a few seconds so user can see them and their summary (#91)
  • Amazing new ANSI-art logo from littlebitspace
  • Add --no-logo option to fowl (to hide cool new logo)
  • Correct spelling in a variable, sometimes causing downstream exceptions (#85)
  • Explicitly support Python 3.13 and 3.14
  • Pin Autobahn < 25.9.1 until release breakage is fixed (25.10.1 also broken)
  • New message for fowld: "kind": "session-close" (optionally with "timeout": int) to initiate the same shutdown the "human" CLI does on ctrl-c. That is, attempt to signal the peer nicely, but give up (after "timeout" seconds). Regardless, "fowld" will exit once "session-close" has been initiated -- with non-zero code if the timeout was hit, or 0 otherwise (#92 @matrss @meejah)

25.7.0: July 31, 2025

  • Cool new ASCII-art / terminal visualization of activity (via "rich")
  • Nice error if user gives zero options
  • Fix "fowl --readme" and pkg_resources deprecation (#78)
  • Massive refactoring of internal APIs, philosophy and specifiers. The biggest visible change from this is using "named" services with peer-specified ports. There is now a usable API if you're using Python and Twisted already.

25.4.0: April 10, 2025

  • Allow for non-local addresses: for both listening interfaces and connect endpoints, non-local addresses may be specified in a manner similar to "ssh -L" or "ssh -R" arguments. See #37: #37
  • Fix up some fallout from refactoring
  • Enable "remote" command in --interactive
  • Proper error-message rendering
  • Allow whitelisting only specific connect/listen endpoints.

24.3.1: March 1, 2024

  • Upgrade dependencies (msgpack, twisted)

24.3.0: March 1, 2024

  • Simplify fowl to have no sub-commands
  • One side runs fowl, the other one runs fowl 1-foo-bar
  • More complete and accurate documentation

24.2.0: February 27, 2024

  • Extensive refactoring
  • fowld for machines
  • fowl (with tui, accept, invite subcommands) for humans
  • Lots more unit- and integration- tests written

23.10.2: October 18, 2023

  • Initial release, for gathering feedback
