5.5 - 6 May

PLEASE NOTE! YOU NEED TO UPGRADE TO 4.35 BEFORE UPGRADING TO 5.xx

Incompatibilities and deprecations

• assetpacks use module (mjs) format and target a minimum level of es2022/safari16.2
• lazyloadcss and asyncbundle have been removed. bundles are always async now they're modules
• wrd exports no longer contain audit events or changesets
• getTidLanguage() now initially return "en", not ""
• getFields in @webhare/wrd now throws if the entity is missing.

Things that are nice to know

• Switches WebHare's 'forThisServer' algorithms to aes-256-gcm. If you don't specify any algorithm to Encrypt/DecryptForThisServer, aes-256-gcm will be used
• wh sql adds a --json for nicer integration with scripts (note that this was already possible using --showmode json)
• markdown headings will now be shifted one level down, eg # becomes H2, to better align with SEO conventions
• Adds support for JavaScript based PSP (payment service providers) drivers. JS drivers can be included in modules and don't require support in the core platform for every providfer.
• Adds @webhare/gettid as an better entrypoint for @mod-tollium/js/gettid.ts. It also supports both frontend and backend code
• Adds toLink and toResized to TS WHFS files (mirroring the file/image cache in HareScript)

TypeScript/JavaScript highlights

• Add isElement & isHTMLElement as type&realm safe instanceof
• Added makeObject to @webhare/harescript
• Adds encryptForThisServer and decryptForThisServer to @webhare/services
• Adds joinURL to merge together two URL components
• CallJS as a more efficient path to simple JS functions
