0.25.1 - 2023-01-23

• Fix React Native 0.71+ Android broken build

0.25 - 2023-01-20

Highlights

• Fix broken build on React Native 0.71+
• [Expo] Fixes Expo SDK 44+ build errors (@​Kudo)
• [JSI] Fix an issue that sometimes led to crashing app upon database close

BREAKING CHANGES

• [Query] Q.where(xxx, undefined) will now throw an error. This is a bug fix, since comparing to undefined was never allowed and would either error out or produce a wrong result in some cases. However, it could technically break an app that relied on existing buggy behavior
• [JSI+Swift] If you use watermelondbProvideSyncJson() native iOS API, you might need to add import WatermelonDB

New features

• [adapters] Adapter objects can now be distinguished by checking their static adapterType
• [Query] New Q.includes('foo') query for case-sensitive exact string includes comparison
• [adapters] Adapter objects now returns dbName
• [Sync] Replacement Sync - a new advanced sync feature. Server can now send a full dataset (same as during initial sync) and indicate with { experimentalStrategy: 'replacement' } that instead of applying a diff, local database should be replaced with the dataset sent. Local records not present in the changeset will be deleted. However, unlike clearing database and logging in again, unpushed local changes (to records that are kept after replacement) are preserved. This is useful for recovering from a corrupted local database, or as a hack to deal with very large state changes such that server doesn't know how to efficiently send incremental changes and wants to send a full dataset instead. See docs for more details.
• [Sync] Added onWillApplyRemoteChanges callback

Performance

• [LokiJS] Updated Loki with some performance improvements
• [iOS] JSLockPerfHack now works on iOS 15
• [Sync] Improved performance of processing large pulls
• Improved @json decorator, now with optional { memo: true } parameter

Changes

• [Docs] Added additional Android JSI installation step

Fixes

• [TypeScript] Improve typings: add unsafeExecute method, localStorage property to Database
• [android] Fixed compilation on some setups due to a missing import
• [sync] Fixed marking changes as synced for users that don't keep globally unique (only per-table unique) IDs
