v2.5.0

Compare Source

This release adds important new features, optimizations, bug fixes, and 8 new contributors. Fuzz tests passed 5+ billion execs for CBOR encoding and decoding functions.

Notable changes are split into 3 categories.

Notable Changes to Review Before Upgrading

These new features and bug fixes were cherry-picked to highlight for review (for projects using older version).

• MR 370: Add SimpleValue type to more fully support CBOR Simple Values, including values not assigned by IANA and...
• MR 376: Add ByteString type to support CBOR maps with byte string keys because Go doesn't allow []byte as map keys and...
• MR 379: Make Decoder.Decode() return io.ErrUnexpectedEOF instead of io.EOF on EOF if current CBOR data item is incomplete.
• MR 380: Make Unmarshal() and Valid() return cbor.ExtraneousDataError (instead of ignoring extraneous data if any remain).
• MR 387: Retry in Decoder if io.Reader's Read() returns 0 bytes read with nil error. Add tests to get 100% code coverage for stream.go.

More Notable Changes

• MR 342: Add DecOptions.UTF8 to decode invalid UTF-8. Default is unchanged (reject invalid UTF-8 and return error).
• MR 355 Allow MaxNestedLevels setting to be configured up to 65535.
• MR 352, 377: Add EncOptions.NilContainersMode to encode nil Go maps and slices as either CBOR nil (default) or empty container.
• MR 381: Add Decoder.Skip() to skip CBOR data item in CBOR Sequences (RFC 8742).
• MR 386 Add functions for Extended Diagnostic Notation (RFC 8610 Appendix G).
• MR 398 Add UnmarshalFirst() to decode CBOR data item and also return remaining bytes.
• MR 400 Deprecate Valid and add Wellformed to replace it.
• MR 402 Add UnmarshalFirst() to DecMode interface.
• MR 412 Add Decoder.Buffered to return remaining data in buffer.

Notable Changes Affecting Speed or Memory Use

• MR 335: Reuse underlying array if RawMessage has sufficient capacity.
• MR 382: Return buffer to pool in Encode(). It adds a bit of overhead to Encode() but NewEncoder().Encode() is faster and uses less memory.

Benchmark comparison for MR 382 shows significant improvement in speed and memory use.
