Leap v3.2.0-rc2 Release Notes

Changes

Default error handler to print help in command line interface apps by default

PRs

• (371)[3.2] Changed default error handler to print help in cli apps by default

The functionality to display help text by default when there is an error output has been added to leap-util and cleos.

leap-util final enhancements for MVP release

PRs

• (327)[3.2] Block-log leap-util subcommand refactoring
• (399)[3.2] Enable new CLI11 LeapFormatter for both cleos and leap-util

There were a few final refactors of the block.log subcommands to complete the leap-util MVP.

Inconsistency between Received block and Produced block log output messages

PRs

• (313)[3.2] Update produced block log output.

The Produced block log output message was missing total block elapsed time and total block time. There was also a minor discrepancy in how confirmation was logged.

API not found errors returning as plain-text message

PRs

• (326)[3.2] Return application/json for all http responses including errors

In all previous versions of nodeos, any 404 not-found errors are returned as JSON documents. In 3.2.0-rc1 a plain-text error message was being returned in some scenarios. The standard of always returning application/json for all http responses including errors has been restored.

Building, compatibility, and upgrading

Upgrading from prior releases

To upgrade from Leap 3.1, simply install Leap 3.2 and restart the binaries while pointing to the same config and data directories as usual. The persisted data files used by Leap 3.1 are compatible with Leap 3.2.

Deprecations, removals, and dropped support

Deprecations
