Release highlights:

  • Support for secure websockets.
  • Ability to remove unreachable clients in a filter node.
  • Several fixes to improve store performance and decrease query times. Query time for large stores decreased from longer than 8 min to under 100 ms.
  • Fix for a long-standing bug that prevented proper database migration in some deployed Docker containers.

The full list of changes is below. See #818 for more details.

Features

  • Support for secure websocket transport

Changes

  • Filter nodes can now remove unreachable clients
  • The WakuInfo listenStr is deprecated and replaced with a sequence of listenAddresses to accommodate multiple transports
  • Removed cached peerInfo on local node. Rely on underlying libp2p switch instead
  • Metrics: added counters for protocol messages
  • Waku v2 node discovery now supports 31/WAKU2-ENR

Fixes

  • Fixed database migration failure in the Docker image
  • All HistoryResponse messages are now auto-paginated to a maximum of 100 messages per response
  • Increased maximum length for reading from a libp2p input stream to allow largest possible protocol messages, including HistoryResponse messages at max size
  • Significantly improved store node query performance
  • Implemented a GossipSub MessageIdProvider for 11/WAKU2-RELAY messages instead of relying on the unstable default
  • Receiver timestamps for message indexing in the store now have consistent millisecond resolution

This release supports the following libp2p protocols:

Protocol Spec status Protocol id
17/WAKU-RLN-RELAY raw /vac/waku/waku-rln-relay/2.0.0-alpha1
11/WAKU2-RELAY stable /vac/waku/relay/2.0.0
12/WAKU2-FILTER draft /vac/waku/filter/2.0.0-beta1
13/WAKU2-STORE draft /vac/waku/store/2.0.0-beta3
18/WAKU2-SWAP draft /vac/waku/swap/2.0.0-beta1
19/WAKU2-LIGHTPUSH draft /vac/waku/lightpush/2.0.0-beta1

The Waku v1 implementation is stable but not under active development.
