[9.0.0] - 2021-11-25

Added

• #1783, Include partitioned tables into the schema cache. Allows embedding, UPSERT, INSERT with Location response, OPTIONS request and OpenAPI support for partitioned tables - @laurenceisla
• #1878, Add Retry-After hint header when in recovery mode - @gautam1168
• #1735, Allow calling function with single unnamed param through RPC POST. - @steve-chavez
  • Enables calling a function with a single json parameter without using Prefer: params=single-object
  • Enables uploading bytea to a function with Content-Type: application/octet-stream
  • Enables uploading raw text to a function with Content-Type: text/plain
• #1938, Allow escaping inside double quotes with a backslash, e.g. ?col=in.("Double\"Quote"), ?col=in.("Back\\slash") - @steve-chavez
• #1075, Allow filtering top-level resource based on embedded resources filters. This is enabled by adding !inner to the embedded resource, e.g. /projects?select=*,clients!inner(*)&clients.id=eq.12- @steve-chavez, @Iced-Sun
• #1857, Make GUC names for headers, cookies and jwt claims compatible with PostgreSQL v14 - @laurenceisla, @robertsosinski

• #1560, Return 405 Method not Allowed for GET of volatile RPC instead of 500 - @wolfgangwalther
• #1584, Fix RPC return type handling and embedding for domains with composite base type (#1615) - @wolfgangwalther
• #1608, #1635, Fix embedding through views that have COALESCE with subselect - @wolfgangwalther

• #1825, Disregard internal junction(in non-exposed schema) when embedding - @steve-chavez
• #1846, Fix requests for overloaded functions from html forms to no longer hang (#1848) - @laurenceisla
• #1858, Add a hint and clarification to the no relationship found error - @laurenceisla
• #1841, Show comprehensive error when an RPC is not found in a stale schema cache - @laurenceisla
• #1875, Fix Location headers in headers only representation for null PK inserts on views - @laurenceisla

Changed

• #1522, #1528, #1535, Docker images are now built from scratch based on a the static PostgREST executable (#1494) and with Nix instead of a Dockerfile. This reduces the compressed image size from over 30mb to about 4mb - @monacoremo
• #1461, Location header for POST request is only included when PK is available on the table - @wolfgangwalther
• #1560, Volatile RPC called with GET now returns 405 Method not Allowed instead of 500 - @wolfgangwalther

• #1604, Change the default logging level to log-level=error. Only requests with a status greater or equal than 500 will be logged. If you wish to go back to the previous behaviour and log all the requests, use log-level=info - @steve-chavez
  • Because currently there's no buffering for logging, defaulting to the error level(minimum logging) increases throughput by around 15% for simple GET queries(no embedding, with filters applied).
• #1617, Dropped support for PostgreSQL 9.4 - @wolfgangwalther
• #1679, Renamed config settings with fallback aliases. e.g. max-rows is now db-max-rows, but max-rows is still accepted - @wolfgangwalther
• #1656, Allow Prefer=headers-only on POST requests and change default to minimal (#1813) - @laurenceisla
• #1854, Dropped undocumented support for gzip compression (which was surprisingly slow and easily enabled by mistake). In some use-cases this makes Postgres up to 3x faster - @aljungberg
• #1872, Send startup/worker logs to stderr to differentiate from access logs on stdout - @steve-chavez

[0.5.0.0] - 2018-05-14

Added

• The configuration (e.g. postgrest.conf) now accepts arbitrary settings that will be passed through as session-local database settings. This can be used to pass in secret keys directly as strings, or via OS environment variables. For instance: app.settings.jwt_secret = "$(MYAPP_JWT_SECRET)" will take MYAPP_JWT_SECRET from the environment and make it available to postgresql functions as current_setting('app.settings.jwt_secret'). Only app.settings.* values in the configuration file are treated in this way. - @canadaduane

• #781, Fix accepting misspelled desc/asc ordering modificators - @onporat, @steve-chavez

Changed

  • Computed columns now only work if they belong to the db-schema
  • Stored procedures might require a search_path to work properly, for further details see https://postgrest.org/en/v5.0/api.html#explicit-qualification
• To use RPC now the json_to_record/json_to_recordset functions are needed, these are available starting from PostgreSQL 9.4 - @steve-chavez
• Overloaded functions now depend on the dbStructure, restart/sighup may be needed for their correct functioning - @steve-chavez
• #1098, Removed support for:
  • curly braces {} in embeds, i.e. /clients?select=*,projects{*} can no longer be used, from now on parens () should be used /clients?select=*,projects(*) - @steve-chavez
  • "in" operator without parens, i.e. /clients?id=in.1,2,3 no longer supported, /clients?id=in.(1,2,3) should be used - @steve-chavez
