Release 0.3.1.1

  • fix Rts.utxo(addr) implementaion in BCH-JS backen that was using old BITBOX REST endpoint.

Release 0.3.1.0

This is a minor feature release focusing on SDK improvements. See migration guide in docs for details.

  • Decoupling compiler from runtime. While the compiler stays in SDK package, the components for working with compiled contracts moved to RTS.
  • Decoupling RTS from BITBOX, which is now just one of available backends for RTS.
  • Introducing BCH-JS support as another (and recommended) backend for RTS.
  • Introducing Portable format - compilation output that can be loaded by RTS without the need for compiler.
  • All JS packages are moved to @spedn scope on npmjs: @spedn/cli, @spedn/rts, @spedn/rts-bitbox, @spedn/rts-bchjs, @spedn/sdk.
  • For better npm tooling support, JS packages use SemVer, while the project as a whole stays with Haskell PVP. So for MAJOR.major.minor.patch release, the JS package will be MAJORmajor.minor.patch.

Release 0.3.0

This is 15th May 2020 hard-fork compatibility update with some new features

  • Introducing reverseBytes support.
  • Introducing tuple literals, for example (1, "abc"), and ability to create type aliases for tuple types.
  • One such alias is TxState which is a 10-tuple containing transaction preimage components.
  • You can get a TxState by calling parse on a variable of Preimage type.
  • Introducing functions extracting a single component of the preimage.

Release 0.2.2

  • fixed issues with compiling large source code files in JavaScript version [thanks to Tobias Ruck for reporting]
  • improved accuracy of type error messages in concatenation (a . b) expressions [thanks to emergent_reasons for reporting]

Release 0.2.1

  • fix SDK bug in validation of Buffer passed as a [byte] argument [thanks to read.cash for noticing]
  • allow to pass a string as a [byte] argument (it will by converted to a Buffer encoded in UTF-8) [thanks to read.cash for inspiration]

Release 0.2.0

This is 15th Nov 2019 hard-fork compatibility update with a bunch of breaking changes and new features.

  • Introducing an array type with syntax [type; length], for example [Sig; 3] signatures, [byte; 10] message. The compiler type-checks the lengths so for example a type of message . message expression will be inferred as [byte; 20].
  • Syntax for tuple assignment now allows its items to be of different type: (int a, Sig b, PubKey c) = expr;
  • Array elements can be accessed with x[i] syntax.
  • Introducing a bit type. In practice only arrays of bits are useful, as they represent a type of checkbits argument in the checkMultiSig function which was upgraded for Schnorr support. Bit array literal is also introduced, ex. [bit; 5] checkbits = 0b00110.
  • As mentioned - checkMultiSig accepts an additional checkbits argument, as described in Nov 15 hard-fork spec.
  • For a byte array of unknown size there is [byte] type which replaces the former bin type.
  • Introducing (UTF-8) string literals, ex. [byte] message = "Hello, World";.
  • Introducing custom type declarations (type aliases) which can be placed before contract declarations and then used as any other type in the contract. Ex. type Message = [byte; 10];. Actually, Sig, DataSig, PubKey, Ripemd160, Sha1, Sha256, Time and TimeSpan are defined internally as aliases.
  • Introducing separator; statement that compiles to OP_CODESEPARATOR.
  • Introducing fail; statement that compiles to OP_RETURN.
  • Introducing checkSize(x) function that returns true if the runtime size of a byte array matches the declared type.
  • Variable names can now contain underscores, ex. [byte] my_string.

Release 0.1.5

  • fix bug with final else statement generating unnecessary OP_NIP.

Release 0.1.4

  • fix bug with fst and snd functions dupicationg OP_SPLIT

Release 0.1.3

  • fix bug with stack tracking after if [thanks to Jonathan Silverblood for reporting]
  • use Schnorr signatures in SigningContext.signData()
