• Add TLS support for gRPC server. (@Envek)

1.4.0 (2023-07-07)

A next-gen (Broker-compatible) broadcasting adapter using Redis Streams.

1.3.1 (2023-05-12)

• Fix gRPC health check response for an empty service. (@palkan)

As per docs, an empty service is used as the key for server's overall health status. So, if we serve any services, we should return SERVING status.

• Add gRPC health check when using grpc_kit. (@palkan)

1.3.0 (2023-02-28)

• Add configuration presets. (@palkan)

Provide sensible defaults matching current platform (e.g., Fly.io).

• Require Ruby 2.7+ and Anyway Config 2.2+.

• Add rpc_max_connection_age option (if favour of rpc_server_args.max_connection_age_ms) and configured its default value to be 300 (5 minutes). (@palkan)

• (Experimental) Add support for grpc_kit as an alternative gRPC implementation. (@palkan, @cylon-v)

Add grpc_kit to your Gemfile and specify ANYCABLE_GRPC_IMPL=grpc_kit env var to use it.

• Setting the redis driver to ruby specified. (@smasry)

• Add mutual TLS support for connections to Redis. (@Envek)

  ANYCABLE_REDIS_TLS_CLIENT_CERT_PATH and ANYCABLE_REDIS_TLS_CLIENT_KEY_PATH settings to specify client certificate and key when connecting to Redis server that requires clients to authenticate themselves.

1.2.5 (2022-12-01)

1.2.1 (2022-02-21)

• Fix RBS signature. (@palkan)

• Add empty ('') service to gRPC health check as "NOT_SERVING". (@palkan)

1.2.0 (2021-12-21) 🎄

• Drop Ruby 2.6 support.

1.1.4 (2021-11-11)

• Do not swallow grpc missing .so exceptions. (@palkan)

1.1.3 (2021-09-29)

• Added support for type coercion from Anyway Config 2.2. (@palkan)

1.1.2 (2021-09-10) 🤵👰

• Improved gRPC server args support. (@palkan)

Add ability to declare gRPC server args without namespacing (i.e., "max_connection_age_ms" instead of "grpc.max_connection_age_ms"). That makes it possible to use ENV vars to provide the gRPC configuration.

1.1.1 (2021-06-05)

• Fixed error message when RPC implementation is missing. (@palkan)

We haven't extracted anycable-grpc yet.

1.1.0 🚸 (2021-06-01)

• No changes since 1.1.0.rc1.

1.1.0.rc1 (2021-05-12)

• BREAKING Move middlewares from gRPC interceptors to custom implementation. (@palkan)

That allowed us to have real middlewares with ability to modify responses, intercept exceptions, etc. The API changed a bit:

 class SomeMiddleware < AnyCable::Middleware
-  def call(request, rpc_call, rpc_handler)
+  def call(rpc_method_name, request, metadata)
     yield
   end
 end

• Ruby >= 2.6 is required.
• Anyway Config >= 2.1 is required.

1.0.3 (2021-03-05)

• Ruby 3.0 compatibility. (@palkan)

1.0.2 (2021-01-05)

• Handle TLS Redis connections by using VERIFY_NONE mode. (@palkan)

1.0.1 (2020-07-07)

• Support providing passwords for Redis Sentinels. (@palkan)

Use the following format: ANYCABLE_REDIS_SENTINELS=:password1@my.redis.sentinel.first:26380,:password2@my.redis.sentinel.second:26380.

1.0.0 (2020-07-01)

• Add embedded option to CLI runner. (@palkan)

• Add Env#istate and EnvResponse#istate to store channel state. (@palkan)

That would allow to mimic instance variables usage in Action Cable channels.

• Add CommandResponse#stopped_streams to support unsubscribing from particular broadcastings. (@palkan)

Socket#unsubscribe is now implemented as well.

• Add AnyCable.broadcast_adapter#broadcast_command method. (@palkan)

It could be used to send commands to WS server (e.g., remote disconnect).

• Add :http broadcasting adapter. (@palkan)

• RPC schema has changed. (@palkan)

Using anycable-go v1.x is required.

• Ruby 2.5+ is required. (@palkan)

• Added RPC proto version check. (@palkan)

Server must sent protov metadata with the supported versions (comma-separated list). If there is no matching version an exception is raised.

Current RPC proto version is v1.

• Added request support to channels. (@palkan)

Now you can access request object in channels, too (e.g., to read headers/cookies/URL/etc).

• Change default server address from [::]:50051 to 127.0.0.1:50051. (@palkan)

See #71.
