Taquito v19.0.2

Bug Fix

@taquito/local-forging - Added the constants for staking/unstaking in the forger that are related to the Experimental and Disabled Adaptive Issuance feature that shipped in Oxford2. PR#2824_

The "disabled" Adaptive Issuance features had a side effect or, undocumented change on forging. This issue came to light when wallets interacted with Smart Contracts that implement entrypoints named "stake" or "unstake".

Taquito had support for these changes when it was targeting the first iteration of the Oxford proposal. As the Oxford2 proposal was expected to have these features completely disabled, the team decided to keep Taquito lean and not support features that were to be disabled/hidden behind feature flags.

Taquito v19.0.1

Dependency updates

• Updated Beacon version to v4.1.2 PR#2811

Documentation

• Removed Sapling live code examples from the website due to large bundle sizes, static code examples will still exist PR#2810

Taquito v19.0.0

Disclaimer
You might have noticed that we jumped versions from v17.5.0 to v19.0.0 (no v18). We do this as an effort to be in parallel with the current Octez version.

• Oxford - v18
• Oxford2 - v19

Taquito v19 supports Oxford2, and not the previously named Oxford protocol.

Potential Breaking Changes:
Oxford2 comes with quite a few breaking changes, please make sure to update your projects accordingly.

Oxford2 changes:

• Removed transactional rollups (tx rollup) references in Taquito #2650
• Removed origination proof from smart rollups #2597
• Updated all references of endorsement into attestation for Oxford2 #2599
• @taquito/rpc - Updated RPC types for Oxford2 compatibility #2596

Summary

New Features

• @taquito/local-forging - Added new property whitelist in smart rollup origination operation #2776

Taquito v17.5.2

Hotfix

• @taquito/beacon-wallet - The previous version updated Beacon to v4.1.0, which enabled the use of TzSafe wallet from Beacon. Some early adopters that tried to use abstracted accounts from TzSafe were having issues with Taquito due to return types. This hotfix added a workaround so that abstracted account users are unblocked. Further support for abstracted accounts will be discussed and planned for a future release.
• @taquito/beacon-wallet - Deprecated the method getPK() in favour of pk member method.

Taquito v17.5.1

Dependency Update

• Updated Beacon dependencies to v4.1.0 which includes new features such as Proof of Event as well as updates to WalletConnect 2 support. For more detailed information in regards to the release, please refer to Beacon's release notes

• Updated integration tests to increase speed and reliability #2741

@taquito/http-utils - Removed Axios in favour of fetch

The taquito/http-utils is responsible for handling all HTTP incoming and outgoing HTTP requests in Taquito. It utilized Axios as a main dependency to handle requests coming in and out of Taquito.

Now that browsers and Node have supported fetch natively, it makes more sense for us to move towards it.

Axios came with quite a large dependency tree, as well as multiple workarounds we needed to include for it to work properly (i.e. the axios-fetch-adapter)

With this change we hope for a more stable HTTP handler in Taquito while reducing the package size at the same time.
