# Changelog

## v0.19.0 (2019-01-24)

- Enhancements
    - Connections can be declared with compile time configuration defaults that are later overwritten by the application environment
    - The library used for JSON decoding can be changed by using the `:json_decoder` configuration

- Soft deprecations (no warnings)
    - All "administrative query modules" have been removed from the documentation. They will eventually be removed completely after a proper deprecation phase
    - Support for `{:system, "ENV_VARIABLE"}` configuration has been removed from the documentation. It will eventually be removed completely after a proper deprecation phase

- Backwards incompatible changes
    - Default configuration has been extended with `host: "localhost"`
    - Minimum required elixir version is now `~> 1.5`
    - Missing application configuration will no longer raise during compilation
    - Public access to the internal pool module name has been removed

## v0.18.0 (2018-08-11)

- Enhancements
    - Configuration can be done on connection (re-) start by setting a `{mod, fun}` tuple for the config key `:init`. This method will be called with the connection module name as the first (and only) parameter and is expected to return `:ok`
    - Experimental support to convert plain maps or query results into series structs has been added
    - Passwords are automatically redacted from logged queries when using the default logger
    - Supporting rules for the elixir formatter are available

- Bug fixes
    - Special characters in url parameter values (like `&` or `?` in a query) are now properly escaped ([#43](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/pull/43))

- Backwards incompatible changes
    - Quoting of identifiers/values has been extracted to the package `influxql` ([hex](https://hex.pm/packages/influxql))

## v0.17.1 (2017-12-16)

- Enhancements
    - Support for Elixir 1.5 style `child_spec` has been added ([#39](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/pull/39))

## v0.17.0 (2017-12-10)

- Backwards incompatible changes
    - Minimum required elixir version is now `~> 1.3`

## v0.16.0 (2017-09-25)

- Enhancements
    - Queries can be executed with an additional option `:pool_timeout` used to wait for an available worker process. This option is independent of other configured/passed timeouts
    - System environment configuration can set an optional default value to be used if the environment variable is unset

- Bug fixes
    - All queries now use a `GenServer.call/3` timeout of `:infinity`. This allows raising the timeouts for a call above the default of `5_000` ([#38](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/issues/38))

## v0.15.0 (2017-03-16)

- Enhancements
    - Every connection method (like `read` or `write`) can set per-call `http_opts` passed on to the `hackney` client
    - Querying for data can now return an `{:error, term}` style tuple if the communication with the server failed. For example `{:error, :nxdomain}` if the host that is queried cannot be resolved by `hackney` ([#33](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/issues/33))
    - The line writer now accepts a retention policy used for writing ([#34](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/pull/34))
    - The line writer will now return an `{:error, term}` style tuple if a problem occurs. For example `{:error, :nxdomain}` if the host that should receive data cannot be resolved by `hackney` ([#33](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/issues/33))
    - Timeouts occurring when executing a query are now returned as `{:error, :timeout}` instead of raising ([#33](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/issues/33))

- Backwards incompatible changes
    - Series definitions raise upon compilation if the contain a tag and a field with the same name. This is done to prevent the InfluxDB behavior of adding `_1` to such fields when storing them

## v0.14.0 (2016-12-18)

- Enhancements
    - Connections can be configured with a default database used when no value is found in method call or series definition
    - Fields and tags with the name `:time` will raise after compilation. They are unqueryable and will be dropped by InfluxDB v1.1.0 when trying to write them.
    - Queries can return CSV formatted responses from the server when running InfluxDB >= 1.1.0
    - Series definitions are now automatically associated with typespecs

- Backwards incompatible changes
    - Minimum required elixir version is now `~> 1.2`
    - Minimum required erlang version is now `~> 18.0`
    - Query builder support for `IF NOT EXISTS` has been removed
    - Series definitions now require to contain at least one field

- Soft deprecations (no warnings)
    - The plural names for precision units have been soft deprecated to be in line with the similar new naming in `Erlang 19.1` and the upcoming `Elixir 1.4.0`. The old types will continue to work but their usage is discouraged. They will be completely deprecated in an upcoming release.

## v0.13.0 (2016-09-11)

- Enhancements
    - Configuration has been split into "compile time" and "runtime" parts. This readds the possibility to change configuration values without recompiling the connection modules ([#22](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/pull/22))
    - Configuration values can be fetched from the system environment using `{:system, ENV_VAR}`
    - Timeouts for queries (individual and connection wide) can be configured ([#21](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/pull/21))
    - Query builder supports `LIMIT` and `OFFSET` for queries ([#19](https://github.com/mneudert/instream/pull/19))
    - Writing a series struct with one or more empty tags will now properly construct an entry without these tags present

- Soft deprecations (no warnings)
    - The precision units `:micro_seconds`, `:milli_seconds` and `:nano_seconds` have been renamed to `:microseconds`, `:milliseconds` and `:nanoseconds` to matches the upcoming `System.time_unit` definition of `Elixir 1.3.0`. Old variables will continue to work but are highly discouraged and will be completely deprecated in an upcoming release.

- Deprecations
    - Defining a series without fields is deprecated and will raise in a future version

- Backwards incompatible changes
    - Configuring a connection with multiple hosts is no longer supported
    - The otp app of a connection is no longer returned when calling `MyConnection.config/0,1`. It is now only available by specifically requesting it via `MyConnection.config([:otp_app])`
    - Writer modules now get a map passed with the connection module registered at key `:module` and (if configured) a udp socket for writing at `:udp_socket`
    - The `Cluster` namespace of queries has been removed

## v0.12.0 (2016-05-13)

- Enhancements
    - Namespace of administrational convenience modules has been changed from `Cluster` to the better matching `Admin`

- Deprecations
    - Configuring a connection with multiple hosts has been deprecated. Instead of multiple `:hosts` only a single `:host` is now expected
    - The `Cluster` namespace of queries has been changed to `Admin`. For some backwards compatibility the old modules are delegated to the new ones until removed in the next release

- Backwards incompatible changes
    - Atoms for defining a series' database are no longer supported
    - Atoms for defining a series' measurement are no longer supported
    - Support for the JSON protocol has been removed matching its removal in InfluxDB v0.12.0
