v6.6.5

[patch] fixed bug in URI match/params
[patch] better URI matching, reduced allocations
[patch] resources are released even in case of panic (deferred)
[-] added benchmark
[-] minor changes to the sample SSE implementation (refactored to use serviceworker)
[-] updated SSE README for clarity
[patch] refactored SSE for more capabilities of customizing
[-] improved reattempting of SSE reconnection, in the sample app
[patch] added hooks for create and remove clients from SSE active clients list
[-] removed os.ReadFile usage to make the sample app compatible with Go 1.13
[-] setting correct heading size for Server-Sent Eevents

[minor] added new Broadcast method to sse extension for easily broadcasting a message to all active clients (#40)
[-] updated sample app for making things prettier
[-] updated the JS in sample app to be modular, cleaner
[-] updated documentation and some cosmetic changes to the sample app

[minor] added helper method to get count of active clients
[patch] renamed GetClientMessageChan to ClientMessageChan
[-] updated the sample app's HTML page to show details slightly better
[-] breaking change in function name, since previous version was released only 24hrs ago. I considered it ok to break it this soon

[minor] Added a new extension for handling Server Sent Events (SSE)
[-] The example app shows how to use this

v6.3.1

[minor] URI patterns now support multiple wildcards, you can form more patterns. e.g. all routes ending with /hello
[-] Refer to the test TestWildcardMadness in router_test.go to see sample usage
[patch] Fixed regression introduced while fixing trailing slash config support for wildcard routes in previous release
[-] regression was introduced after changing the regex used for route matching. This releases completely removes regex (there's some decent performance improvement, yay! but with slightly more memory consumption)

v6.2.2

[major] NewRouter function now accepts variadic Routes instead of slice of Routes (breaking change)
[minor] Router now has a convenience method Add(routes...*Route)
[minor] Route grouping feature added (usage available in the sample app, cmd/main.go)
[-] updated tests
[-] fixed module version in go.mod
[-] fixed v6 imports
[patch] fixed middleware not applied on routegroups

v5.3.2

[patch] fixed bug when trailing slash configuration was being ignored when using wildcard in URI
[-] removed some unused constants

v5.3.1

[minor] added a new helper function to get the original HTTP response writer from Webgo's custom response writer
[patch] remove check when response is already written, prevent writing any further
[-] the blocking behaviour was breaking large responses like files and such

v5.2.0

[minor] router.Use method for adding middleware, is now variadic
[minor] 2 new helper methods webgo.SetError(*http.Request, error) & webgo.GetError(r)
[-] refer SetError, GetError for usage details

v5.0.0

[major] Removed deprecated & dead code
[-] Render404 was removed. This can be easily replaced using Render function
[-] middleware package was removed. There are now sub packages for individual middleware functions, middleware/cors, middleware/accesslogs
[-] cleaned up all unit tests
[-] updated travis config to use correct version in tests
[-] updated minimum test version of Go to 1.13 to support errors.Is

Fixed a critical routing bug

Fixed a critical issue while creating regex patter for URIs without parameters. It's surprising it was never caught before!

Minor improvements

[patch] refactored router.Serve method to avoid context payload injection to special handlers
[patch] removed deadcode Route.matchAndGet
[patch] fixed panic when using CORS middleware with nil configuration
[patch] using response writer from pool for chained handlers instead of creating a new instance
[patch] other small refactor for cleaner/easy to understand code
[patch] removed unused field from context payload

v4.1.3

[minor] added webgo.ResponseStatus(rw http.ResponseWriter) int which returns response status code
[patch] fixed a bug which did not send appropriate JSON response header for the convenience methods
[patch] fixed accesslog middleware not printing valid http status code when not using webgo response methods
[patch] fixed regression introduced in 4.0.4, where default http status was 0, now it's set to 200
[patch] refactored accesslog & CORS middleware (moved to new package)
[patch] refactored global logger for improved modularity
[patch] Removed unnecessary WriteHeader from SendResponse, SendError. Added relevant header write for Send
[-] added handler which directly writes using w.Write where 'w' is the http.ResponseWriter, in cmd/main.go
[-] added tests for logger
[-] no performance impact with these changes
[-] removed the empty deprecation logs function
[-] removed unwanted comments from cmd/main.go
[-] updated README with correct version number & updated important section highlight the regression
[-] updated README with correct version number and updated the sample code
[-] updated tests to test if w.Write([]byte) where 'w' is the http.ResponseWriter, works as expected
