# Changelog

Aqua compiler's versioning scheme is the following: `0.BREAKING.ENHANCING.RELEASE`

* `0` shows that Aqua does not meet its vision yet, so syntax and semantics can change quickly
* `BREAKING` part is incremented for each breaking change when old `.aqua` files need to be updated to compile with the new version
* `ENHANCING` part is incremented for every syntax addition
* `RELEASE` is the release number, shows internal compiler changes, bugfixes that keep the language untouched<br>

* Breaking semantic change: [Stream restrictions](/aqua-book/language/crdt-streams.md#stream-restrictions). This fixes many obscure bugs which happened when using streams inside `for` cycles ([#321](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/issues/321))
* This version of Aqua is not compatible with `fldist` so far (cannot run the emitted `AIR` via `fldist`). Use `aqua run` to run Aqua instead ([#358](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/358))
* Added timeout parameter support for `aqua run` ([#360](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/360))

The new JS/TS SDK is heavily rewritten to [support async service functions declaration](https://doc.fluence.dev/docs/fluence-js/3_in_depth#using-asynchronous-code-in-callbacks). It also embeds a deeply refactored [AquaVM](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aquavm). ([#334](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/334))
* Various bugfixes for AIR generation and the compiler behavior ([#328](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/328), [#335](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/335), [#336](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/336), [#338](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/338))

### [0.3.1](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/releases/tag/0.3.1) – September 13, 2021

* CLI improvements: `--dry` run ([#290](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/290)), output directory is created if not present ([#287](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/287))
* Many bugfixes: for imports ([#289](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/289)), TypeScript backend ([#285](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/285), [#294](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/294), [#298](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/298)), and language semantics ([#275](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/issues/275)).

### [0.3.0](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/releases/tag/0.3.0) – September 8, 2021

* TypeScript output of the compiler now targets a completely rewritten [TypeScript SDK](https://doc.fluence.dev/docs/js-sdk) ([#251](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/251))
* Constants are now `UPPER_CASED`, including always-available `HOST_PEER_ID` and `INIT_PEER_ID` ([#260](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/260))

* `aqua` is the name of the compiler CLI command now (was `aqua-cli`) ([#278](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/278))
* JVM version of the compiler is now available with `aqua-j` command; JS build is called by default – so no more need to have JVM installed ([#278](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/278))
* Now you can have a file that contains only a header with imports, uses, declares, and exports, and no new definitions ([#274](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/274))

### [0.2.1](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/releases/tag/0.2.1) – August 31, 2021

### [0.2.0](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/releases/tag/0.2.0) – August 27, 2021

* Now the compiler emits AIR with the new `(ap` instruction, hence it's not backwards compatible ([#241](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/241))
* Many performance optimizations and bugfixes ([#255](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/255), [#254](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/254), [#252](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/252), [#249](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/pull/249))

* Added `host_peer_id` , a predefined constant that points on the relay if Aqua compilation is configured so, and on `%init_peer_id%` otherwise, see [#218](https://github.com/fluencelabs/aqua/issues/218).

### 0.1.10 – July 26, 2021
