Remove the need to query a particular KV level, and instead use slightly different encoded keys, and use prefix based iteration. This means we can use different KV stores to give the same functionality, without needing to use hierarchical KV stores.
If the data of a record was set using CONTENT, MERGE, or DIFF, then any Javascript Date values were treated as strings. These values are now parsed if the field is defined as a datetime field.
If we have an empty field ‘test’ and we specify the sql `SET test += “test”` then we’ll presume it’s going to be an array if it isn’t a number or a decimal.
Don’t use the global variable ‘skip’ to decode into, as this causes a data race, when decoding keys from inside multiple different goroutines. Instead we now create a new string variable for every decode function, which will be created on the heap and ignored when the function returns.
It is now possible to specify a function to manipulate each values stored in a data object, when retrieving that value. This enables storing compressed obejcts as strings, which are expanded when accessed. This is used to store *sql.Thing values, which when requested can access embedded fields by fetching and returning the full record when the *sql.Thing is requested.
If a type only defines one-half of the symmetry (e.g. it implements MarshalJSON() but not UnmarshalJSON() ), then that type doesn't satisfy the codec encoding/decoding check and instead codec will not encode or decode the item using the special interface methods.
Make use of the github.com/abcum/bump package to efficiently encode and decode from and to byte slices, whilst at the same time using encoder and decoder pools, instead of creating a new buffer for each encoding / decoding process.
With the lates github.com/abcum/cork package, it is now possible to encode and decode a cork data stream without creating a new buffer each time. Instead the github.com/abcum/bump pacakge efficiently buffers the byte slice without any unnecessary allocations.
The hook package enables static and backoff retryable functions. This package can be used for calling remote webhooks concurrently in separate goroutines.
