New Libs & Utilities
Navigation
The new navigation library has been added to include the /_api/navigation REST endpoint. The wiki has been updated to include documentation for this class.
Field Automation
The SPConfig class used for automating SharePoint assets, has updated the field logic for easier creation. It no longer requires the raw field schema xml, and will generate one on demand. Refer to the updated Automation and Field Examples wiki pages for additional information.
Existing projects will need to make a minor tweak to existing code examples using field configuration helper class. The Name and SchemaXml properties are now name and schemaXml.
Caching Objects
The ability to store data objects in local and session storage is now available. All base objects have been updated to include a stringify method. The helper class includes a parse method for converting the string result to a base object. Refer to the wiki page for additional information.
The parsed object will include the appropriate methods, based on the type.
