Full Changelog: 8.0.11...8.0.12

8.0.11

Release 8.0.11

🔥 Added a new configuration option graphql/app-cache-enabled (default: true). This option allows disabling the GraphQL App cache.

Disabling GraphQL App chacing can be beneficial for development and testing in multi-node environments. In such setups, updating a GraphQL App Definition immediately refreshes the cache on the handling node, but other nodes may take up to graphql/app-cache-ttr to sync, potentially causing testing delays.

Main new commits

a534c51 ✨ GQL app cache can be disabled setting configuration option /graphql/app-cache-enabled->false. This helps during testing or development

Full Changelog: 8.0.10...8.0.11

Full Changelog: 8.0.5...8.0.6

8.0.5

Release 8.0.5

This release updates dependencies to their latest patch version.

Additional notes

The build process now adds a new asset restheart-with-deps.zip (and its tar.gz version) that contains the thin restheart-core.jar plus a lib/ folder with all Maven dependencies.
This allows to use the restheart-core.jar as a proper Maven compile-time dependency instead of the fat JAR built with the shade plugin (which was not very useful as a compile-time dependency, as it brings all of its transitive dependencies with it).
See issue #517 for a complete description.
