Release v1.2.0 · wpdas/chain-db

1.2.0 (2025-03-10)

Required Document ID for Updates: The doc_id parameter is now required for all update operations. The ability to update the most recent record without specifying a doc_id has been removed for consistency and clarity.

Document IDs: Each record now automatically receives a unique doc_id (UUID) when created
Targeted Record Updates: Added ability to update specific records by their doc_id instead of only the most recent record
Improved Search Capabilities: Enhanced search functionality to find records by doc_id in both simple and advanced searches
Better Update Response: When updating a record by doc_id, the API now returns the updated record instead of the latest record
Direct Document Access: Added new API endpoint /table/<table_name>/doc/<doc_id> to directly retrieve a specific document by its doc_id

Protected Document IDs: Added protection to ensure that doc_id values cannot be set or modified by users. Any attempt to include a doc_id in the data when creating or updating records will be ignored.

Persist Operation: Fixed an issue where the persist operation incorrectly required a doc_id. Created a separate request structure to ensure persist operations don't require a doc_id parameter.

Added detailed explanation about the complete replacement behavior during updates (no property merging)
Updated API examples to demonstrate searching and updating records by doc_id
Removed examples and documentation for updating the latest record without a doc_id
