v0.7.1

Changed

• Improved logging of connection errors.

Fixed

• Fixed bug causing empty times to be inserted into the DB even when the omitempty tag was set.
• Fixed node status refresh loop leaking goroutines.

v0.7.0 - 2015-04-14

This release includes support for RethinkDB 2.0 and connecting to clusters. To connect to a cluster you should use the new Addresses field in ConnectOpts, for example:

session, err := r.Connect(r.ConnectOpts{
    Addresses: []string{"localhost:28015", "localhost:28016"},
})
if err != nil {
    log.Fatalln(err.Error())
}

Also added was the ability to read from a cursor using a channel, this is especially useful when using changefeeds. For more information see this gist

cursor, err := r.Table("items").Changes()
ch := make(chan map[string]interface{})
cursor.Listen(ch)

For more details checkout the README and godoc. As always if you have any further questions send me a message on Gitter.

• Added the ability to connect to multiple nodes, queries are then distributed between these nodes. If a node stops responding then queries stop being sent to this node.
• Added the DiscoverHosts optional argument to ConnectOpts, when this value is true the driver will listen for new nodes added to the cluster.
• Added the Addresses optional argument to ConnectOpts, this allows the driver to connect to multiple nodes in a cluster.
• Added the IncludeStates optional argument to Changes.
• Added MinVal and MaxVal which represent the smallest and largest possible values.
• Added the Listen cursor helper function which publishes database results to a channel.
• Added support for optional arguments for the Wait function.
• Added the Type function to the Cursor, by default this value will be "Cursor" unless using a changefeed.
• Changed the IndexesOf function to OffsetsOf .
• Changed driver to use the v0.4 protocol (used to use v0.3).
• Fixed geometry tests not properly checking the expected results.
• Fixed bug causing nil pointer panics when using an Unmarshaler
• Fixed dropped millisecond precision if given value is too old

v0.6.3 - 2015-03-04

Added

• Add IdentifierFormat optarg to TableOpts (#158)

Fixed

• Fix struct alignment for ARM and x86-32 builds (#153)
• Fix sprintf format for geometry error message (#157)
• Fix duplicate if block (#159)
• Fix incorrect assertion in decoder tests

v0.6.0 - 1 Feb 2015

There are some major changes to the driver with this release that are not related to the RethinkDB v1.16 release. Please have a read through them:

• Improvements to result decoding by caching reflection calls.
• Finished implementing the Marshaler/Unmarshaler interfaces
• Connection pool overhauled. There were a couple of issues with connections in the previous releases so this release replaces the fatih/pool package with a connection pool based on the database/sql connection pool.
• Another change is the removal of the prefetching mechanism as the connection+cursor logic was becoming quite complex and causing bugs, hopefully this will be added back in the near future but for now I am focusing my efforts on ensuring the driver is as stable as possible #130 #137
• Due to the above change the API for connecting has changed slightly (The API is now closer to the database/sql API. ConnectOpts changes:
  • MaxActive renamed to MaxOpen
  • IdleTimeout renamed to Timeout
• Cursors are now only closed automatically when calling either All or One
• Exec now takes ExecOpts instead of RunOpts. The only difference is that Exec has the NoReply field

With that out the way here are the v1.16 changes:

• Added Range which generates all numbers from a given range
• Added an optional squash argument to the changes command, which lets the server combine multiple changes to the same document (defaults to true)
• Added new admin functions (Config, Rebalance, Reconfigure, Status, Wait)
• Added support for SUCCESS_ATOM_FEED
• Added MinIndex + MaxIndex functions
• Added ToJSON function
• Updated WriteResponse type

Since this release has a lot of changes and although I have tested these changes sometimes things fall through the gaps. If you discover any bugs please let me know and I will try to fix them as soon as possible.

v0.5.0 - 6 Oct 2014

• Added geospatial terms (Circle, Distance, Fill, Geojson, ToGeojson, GetIntersecting, GetNearest, Includes, Intersects, Line, Point, Polygon, PolygonSub)
• Added UUID term for generating unique IDs
• Added AtIndex term, combines Nth and GetField
• Added the Geometry type, see the types package
• Updated the BatchConf field in RunOpts, now uses the BatchOpts type

Internal Changes

• Fixed encoding performance issues, greatly improves writes/second
• Updated Next to zero the destination value every time it is called.

v0.4.0

API changes

• Updated the driver to support RethinkDB v1.14 (#116)
• Added the Binary data type
• Added the Binary command which takes a []byte, io.Reader or bytes.Buffer{} as an argument.
• Added the BinaryFormat optional argument to RunOpts
• Added the GroupFormat optional argument to RunOpts
• Added the ArrayLimit optional argument to RunOpts
• Renamed the ReturnVals optional argument to ReturnChanges
• Renamed the Upsert optional argument to Conflict
• Added the IndexRename command
• Updated Distinct to now take the Index optional argument (using DistinctOpts)

Internal Changes
