Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog.

Added

  • Definition of the icons property of AppMetadata, based on PWA icon spec (#319)
  • Added support for raiseIntent without a context via the addition of the fdc3.nothing context type (#375)
  • Added FDC3 Workbench, an FDC3 API developer application (#457)
  • Added advice on how to broadcast complex context types, composed of other types, so that other apps can listen for both the complex type and simpler constituent types (#464)
  • Added the ability to return data from an intent, via the addition of an IntentHandler type and a getResult() to IntentResolution, both of which return a Promise of a Context object. (#495)
  • Added a field to specify the Context type that intent can return to the AppD Application schema and extended the findIntent API calls to be able to use it for resolution. (#499)
  • Added the ability to return a Channel from an intent (via the IntentResult type), resolver support for intents that return Channels and the concept of PrivateChannels. (#508)
  • Added error UserCancelled to the ResolveError enumeration to be used when user closes the resolver UI or otherwise cancels resolution of a raised intent (#522 )
  • Added an instanceId (and optional instanceMetadata) field to AppMetadata allowing it to refer to specific app instances and thereby supporting targetting of intents to specific app instances. Also added a findInstances() function to the desktop agent and TargetAppUnavailable and TargetInstanceUnavailable Errors to the ResolveError enumeration. (#509
  • Added a References and Bibliography section to the Standard's documentation to hold links to 'normative references' and other documentation that is useful for understanding the standard (#530)
  • IntentResolution now requires the name of the intent raised to included, allowing it to be used to determine the intent raised via fdc3.raiseIntentForContext(). (#507)
  • A Trademarks page was added to acknowledge trademarks used within the Standard not owned by FINOS or the Linux Foundation (#534)
  • Added details of FDC3's existing versioning and deprecation policies to the FDC3 compliance page (#539)
  • Add IntentDeliveryFailed to the ResolveError enumeration to be used when delivery of an intent and context to a targetted app or instance fails. (#601)

Changed

  • Consolidated Listener documentation with other types (#404)
  • Updated definition of the Position context type to support negative (short) positions (#419)
  • Upgraded web access statements from SHOULD to MUST in the API specification (#440)
  • Updated copyright notices (#467)
  • Adjusted wording in API spec and documentation to acknowledge the possibility of methods of intent resolution other than a resolver UI (#461)
  • Replaced 'System channels' with 'User channels' throughout the spec, documentation, API and methods.ts. Clarified spec and documentation where it is referring to User channels vs. App channels. Added support to methods.ts for automatic fallback to getSystemChannels if getUserChannels doesn't exist. (#470)
  • Moved the Icon type definition into the Types documentation page for consistency with other types. (#493
  • The fdc3.joinChannel(), fdc3.getCurrentChannel() and fdc3.leaveCurrentChannel() functions have been made optional for FDC3 API compliance, but are recommended through the application of the SHOULD keyword. (#512)
  • All DesktopAgent and Channel API functions are now async for consistency, changing the return type of the broadcast, addIntentListener, addContextListener and getInfo functions (#516)

Deprecated

  • Removed details of the 'global' channel that was deprecated in FDC3 1.2. (#496)

Fixed

  • Corrected syntax errors in context schema examples (#424)
  • Corrected a minor error in the ViewQuote Intent example (#439)
  • Clarified behavior of fdc3.addContextListener when not joined to a channel (#449)
  • Clarified existing behavior of joinChannel and addIntentListener when joining a channel (#454)
  • Clarified numerous aspects of the existing raiseIntent behavior in the spec and documentation (#461)
  • Updated Methods.ts to support the updated signature for addContextListener introduced in FDC3 1.2 (#462)
  • Clarified the description of the addContextListener functions from the Desktop Agent and Channel APIs in spec and docs. (#492)
  • Clarified that implementing fdc3.getInfo() is required for compliance with the FDC3 standard (#515)
