v7.0.0

Added

• set_default_user(user) / clear_default_user() methods to set / remove a default user object used when there's no user passed to get_value() / get_value_details() / get_all_values() / get_all_variation_ids() methods.
• set_offline() / set_online() methods to indicate whether the SDK is allowed to make HTTP calls or not. In 'offline' mode the SDK works from the cache only.
• on_client_ready() / on_config_changed() / on_flag_evaluated() / on_error() hooks. Subscription is possible on client initialization options and with the get_hooks() method of ConfigCatClient.
• get_value_details() method to retrieve evaluation details along with the feature flag / setting value. It returns the same details that is passed to on_flag_evaluated on each evaluation.
• get_all_value_details() method to retrieve evaluation details along with all feature flags/ setting values.

Changed

• Client initialization options were moved to a ConfigCatOptions object that can be passed to the new configcatclient.get() factory method. The create_client*() methods are deprecated.
• In the create_client*() methods the following params changed:
  • config_cache_class to config_cache: A subclass of ConfigCache object is expected here (not a class).
  • connect_timeout to connect_timeout_seconds (to indicate the unit of measure).
  • read_timeout to read_timeout_seconds (to indicate the unit of measure).
  • flag_overrides expects a new FlagOverrides object (not an OverrideDataSource object).
• ConfigCatClient's stop() method is renamed to close().
• ConfigCatClient can be explicitly closed via client.close() and configcatclient.close_all() methods.
• force_refresh now returns with a result object that indicates whether the refresh succeeded or not.
• The TTL of lazy_load and interval of auto_poll is compared against a cached fetch_time, which allows the SDK not necessarily download a new config.json at each application restart.
• Fetch logic handles 403 response status and updates cached fetch_time in case of 304 403 and 404 response status.
