Release notes from apollo-kotlin

v4.1.0

2024-12-21T17:50:20Z

Ktor 3.0.0

Version 4.1.0 updates usages of Ktor from 2.3.11 to 3.0.0:

If you are using apollo-runtime-js or apollo-debug-server-jvm, you need to update your app to Ktor 3.0.0+ at the same time as updating to Apollo 4.1.0 (apollo-debug-server-android is unaffected).
If you are using the deprecated apollo-mockserver or apollo-ktor-support from this repo, you need to update to the new coordinates.

All other cases are unaffected. In particular, apollo-runtime on Android and iOS uses OkHttp and NsUrlConnection respectively and is not impacted by the Ktor update.

You can read more details in the pull request.

New media type: `application/graphql-response+json`

application/graphql-response+json is a new media type being introduced by the GraphQL over HTTP draft. It allows differentiating a valid GraphQL response from an error JSON response that could be transmitted by a cache or proxy in the HTTP chain.

If your server uses application/graphql-response+json and returns non-2xx response, Apollo Kotlin will now parse those responses and expose data and errors instead of returning an ApolloHttpException before.

K2 support for the IntelliJ plugin

The IntelliJ plugin is now compatible with K2 (#6150)

Removed `apollo-mockserver` and `apollo-ktor-support`

apollo-mockserver is now at com.apollographql.mockserver:apollo-mockserver:0.1.0 and developed at https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-kotlin-mockserver
apollo-ktor-support is now at com.apollographql.ktor:apollo-engine-ktor:0.1.0 and developed at https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-kotlin-ktor-support/

v4.0.1

2024-10-01T16:29:26Z

This release contains a handful of bug fixes and improvements.

⚙️ Add `ApolloCompilerPlugin.schemaListener()`

The compiler plugins API has been extended to allow listening to schema changes.
This can be used to have plugins generate code based on the schema. To do this, implement the schemaListener
function on your plugin:

class MyCompilerPlugin() : ApolloCompilerPlugin {
  @ApolloExperimental
  override fun schemaListener(): SchemaListener {
    return object : SchemaListener {
      override fun onSchema(schema: Schema, outputDirectory: File) {
        // Generate some code inside outputDirectory based on schema
      }
    }
  }
}

🚀 Allow mapping scalars to simple generic types

Previously, to map a scalar to a generic type, you had to use a typealias.
Now, simple generic types are accepted, and common types like List and String don't need to be fully qualified:

mapScalar("MassList", "List<com.example.Measure<com.example.Mass>>", "com.example.MassListAdapter")

v4.0.0

2024-07-29T20:54:52Z

Apollo Kotlin 4 is a maturity release. It focuses on tooling, stability and making the library more maintainable, so it can evolve smoothly for the many years to come.

While most of the core APIs stayed the same, Apollo Kotlin 4 contains a few binary breaking changes. To account for that, and in order to be more future-proof, we changed the package name to com.apollographql.apollo.

You need to replace all the com.apollographql.apollo3 with com.apollographql.apollo in your codebase.

Migration guide: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/kotlin/migration/4.0.
Evolution policy: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/kotlin/essentials/evolution.

Thanks again to everyone who provided feedback during the alphas/betas.

Main changes

New package name (migration guide)
Moved artifacts (Apollo Kotlin galaxy documentation page)

Android Studio/IntelliJ Plugin (installation instructions)
Multiplatform GraphQL parser (doc)
Apollo Compiler Plugin API (doc)
WasmJs support
NetworkMonitor API (doc)
Experimental WebSocket API (doc)
Experimental support for @oneOf (GraphQL RFC)

v4.0.0-rc.2

2024-07-22T10:39:59Z

We're on the road to v4 with this second release candidate which includes a few minor tweaks as well as one new feature.

Note: in v4.0.0-rc.1 apollo-debug-server and apollo-tooling depended on com.apollographql.apollo3 artifacts. This is no longer the case with v4.0.0-rc.2, where all dependencies are under the com.apollographql.apollo group id.

Add memoryCacheOnly (#6049)

.memoryCacheOnly(true) can be set on calls to read and store records in the memory cache only even when a persistent cache is configured.
This can be useful in scenarios where long term storage isn't needed and performance is important.

[gradle-plugin] Use a better warning for Service.schemaFile users (#6036)
[all] Update apollo-kotlin-execution (#6040)

v3.8.5

2024-07-11T15:30:07Z

Version 3.8.5 is a maintenance release. New developments happen in the 4.x versions.

[all] Bump okio to 3.9.0 (#5868)
[runtime] Adding checks for json end_document in http transport (#5894)
[runtime] Adding checks for json end_document in http batching interceptors (#5892)

v4.0.0-rc.1

2024-07-08T19:31:44Z

New package name & evolution policy

We changed the package name from com.apollographql.apollo3 to com.apollographql.apollo for version 4. This is a safe default for the many years to come and works well with our new evolution policy.

If you are updating from version 3 or an alpha/beta version 4, you need to replace all com.apollographql.apollo3 with com.apollographql.apollo

Apollo galaxy

As part of this release, some of the non-core artifacts have been moved to separate coordinates and GitHub repositories. Moving forward, this will allow us to iterate faster on those artifacts while keeping the core ones more maintainable.

Some of the existing symbols are kept as deprecated to ease the transition (like MockServer for an example). Others (the -incubating ones) have been removed, and you need to update them now.

You can read more in the migration guide.

v3.8.4

2024-04-30T07:29:02Z

Version 3.8.4 is a maintenance release with one bug fix and 2 performance improvements. New developments happen in the 4.x versions.

[java-runtime] Fix ApolloClient.Builder.okHttpClient() returns null instead of this (#5860)
[normalized-cache] Use a single transaction when using MemoryCache chaining (#5861)
[normalized-cache] Call through to loadRecords from the MemoryCache to the SQL one (#5863)

v4.0.0-beta.6

2024-05-02T08:23:36Z

SQL cache performance improvements

If you're using a chained memory + SQL cache, #5840 makes sure cache writes are wrapped in a transaction, making them much faster.

Apollo Compiler Plugins

Plugin is renamed to ApolloCompilerPlugin. There is a new documentTransform API as well as other fixes. More details in the compiler plugins documentation.

Experimental WebSockets

A new .websocket package is available that makes it easier to retry WebSockets and handle errors. More details and migration guide in the experimental websockets documentation.

ApolloIdlingResource is deprecated

We recommend using reactive patterns to test your UI instead. See this article about ways to do so.

Removed androidx.startup dependency

androidx.startup was introduced in beta.5 but is problematic for unit tests and other cases. beta.6 removes that dependency. More details in the network connectivity documentation.

WasmJS support for apollo-adapter

You can see Wasm in action at https://wasm.confetti-app.dev/

Threading changes

In a effort to minimize the number of thread switches, the whole request is now run in the same dispatcher. See Threading.md for more details.

v3.8.3

2024-03-21T09:46:56Z

Version 3.8.3 is a maintenance release with two new convenience APIs and a Kotlin update. New developments happen in the 4.x versions.

Note: because Apollo Kotlin now depends on kotlin-stdlib version 1.9, you need the 1.8+ Kotlin compiler to compile your project.

[runtime] Add ApolloClient.Builder(ApolloHttpCache) (#5638) (#5640)
[runtime] Allow buildPostBody to write operation extensions (#5631)
