## [0.6.2] - 2024-06-26

This is a bug fixing release. Kademlia now correctly sets and forwards publisher & ttl in the DHT records.

### Fixed

- kademlia: Preserve publisher & expiration time in DHT records ([#162](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/162))

## [0.6.1] - 2024-06-20

This is a bug fixing and security release. curve255190-dalek has been upgraded to v4.1.3, see [dalek-cryptography/curve25519-dalek#659](https://github.com/dalek-cryptography/curve25519-dalek/pull/659) for details.

### Fixed

- kad: Set default ttl 36h for kad records ([#154](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/154))
- chore: update ed25519-dalek to v2.1.1 ([#122](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/122))
- Bump curve255190-dalek 4.1.2 -> 4.1.3 ([#159](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/159))

## [0.6.0] - 2024-06-14

This release introduces breaking changes into `kad` module. The API has been extended as following:

- An event `KademliaEvent::IncomingRecord` has been added.
- New methods `KademliaHandle::store_record()` / `KademliaHandle::try_store_record()` have been introduced.

This allows implementing manual incoming DHT record validation by configuring `Kademlia` with `IncomingRecordValidationMode::Manual`.

Also, it is now possible to enable `TCP_NODELAY` on sockets.

Multiple refactorings to remove the code duplications and improve the implementation robustness have been done.

### Added

- Support manual DHT record insertion ([#135](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/135))
- transport: Make `TCP_NODELAY` configurable ([#146](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/146))

### Changed

- transport: Introduce common listener for tcp and websocket ([#147](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/147))
- transport/common: Share DNS lookups between TCP and WebSocket ([#151](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/151))

### Fixed

- ping: Make ping fault tolerant wrt outbound substreams races ([#133](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/133))
- crypto/noise: Make noise fault tolerant ([#142](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/142))
- protocol/notif: Fix panic on missing peer state ([#143](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/143))
- transport: Fix erroneous handling of secondary connections ([#149](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/149))

## [0.5.0] - 2024-05-24

This is a small release that makes the `FindNode` command a bit more robust:

- The `FindNode` command now retains the K (replication factor) best results.
- The `FindNode` command has been updated to handle errors and unexpected states without panicking.

### Added

- Add release checklist  ([#115](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/115))

### Changed

- kad: Refactor FindNode query, keep K best results and add tests  ([#114](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/114))

## [0.4.0] - 2024-05-23

This release introduces breaking changes to the litep2p crate, primarily affecting the `kad` module. Key updates include:

- The `GetRecord` command now exposes all peer records, not just the latest one.
- A new `RecordType` has been introduced to clearly distinguish between locally stored records and those discovered from the network.

Significant refactoring has been done to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the `kad` module. The updates are as follows:

- The `GetRecord` command now exposes all peer records.
- The `GetRecord` command has been updated to handle errors and unexpected states without panicking.

Additionally, we've improved code coverage in the `kad` module by adding more tests.

### Added

- Re-export `multihash` & `multiaddr` types  ([#79](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/79))
- kad: Expose all peer records of `GET_VALUE` query  ([#96](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/96))

### Changed

- multistream_select: Remove unneeded changelog.md  ([#116](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/116))
- kad: Refactor `GetRecord` query and add tests  ([#97](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/97))
- kad/store: Set memory-store on an incoming record for PutRecordTo  ([#88](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/88))
- multistream: Dialer deny multiple /multistream/1.0.0 headers  ([#61](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/61))
- kad: Limit MemoryStore entries  ([#78](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/78))
- Refactor WebRTC code  ([#51](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/51))
- Revert "Bring `rustfmt.toml` in sync with polkadot-sdk (#71)"  ([#74](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/74))
- cargo: Update str0m from 0.4.1 to 0.5.1  ([#95](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/95))

### Fixed

- Fix clippy  ([#83](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/83))
- crypto: Don't panic on unsupported key types  ([#84](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/84))

## [0.3.0] - 2024-04-05

### Added

- Expose `reuse_port` option for TCP and WebSocket transports  ([#69](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/69))
- protocol/mdns: Use `SO_REUSEPORT` for the mDNS socket  ([#68](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/68))
- Add support for protocol/agent version  ([#64](https://github.com/paritytech/litep2p/pull/64))

## [0.2.0] - 2023-09-05

This is the second release of litep2p, v0.2.0. The quality of the first release was so bad that this release is a complete rewrite of the library.

Support is added for the following features:

* Transport protocols:
  * TCP
  * QUIC
  * WebRTC
  * WebSocket

* Protocols:
  * [`/ipfs/identify/1.0.0`](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/tree/master/identify)
  * [`/ipfs/ping/1.0.0`](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/ping/ping.md)
  * [`/ipfs/kad/1.0.0`](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/tree/master/kad-dht)
  * [`/ipfs/bitswap/1.2.0`](https://github.com/ipfs/specs/blob/main/BITSWAP.md)
  * Request-response protocol
  * Notification protocol
  * Multicast DNS
  * API for creating custom protocols

This time the architecture has been designed to be extensible and integrating new transport and/or user-level protocols should be easier. Additionally, the test coverage is higher both in terms of unit and integration tests. The project also contains conformance tests which test the behavior of `litep2p` against, [`rust-libp2p`](https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/), [`go-libp2p`](https://github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p/) and Substrate's [`sc-network`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/tree/master/substrate/client/network). Currently the Substrate conformance tests are not enabled by default as they require unpublished/unaccepted changes to Substrate.

## [0.1.0] - 2023-04-04

This is the first release of `litep2p`, v0.1.0.

Support is added for the following:

* TCP + Noise + Yamux (compatibility with `libp2p`)
* [`/ipfs/identify/1.0.0`](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/tree/master/identify)
* [`/ipfs/ping/1.0.0`](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/ping/ping.md)
* Request-response protocol
* Notification protocol

The code quality is atrocious but it works and the second release focuses on providing high test coverage for the library. After that is done and most of the functionality is covered (unit, integration and conformance tests, benchmarks), the focus can be turned to refactoring the code into something clean and efficient.
