Next Centrifugo release won't support multiple projects, if you have any objections - write here

[FZambia]

Release of Centrifugo v1.0.0 is planned on this weekend!

Here is current changelog (something can change, feel free to write your opinion):

• works with single project only. No more project key. secret the only required configuration option.
• web interface is now embedded, this means that downloading binary release you get possibility to run Centrifugo web interface just providing --web flag when starting process.
• when secret set via environment variable CENTRIFUGO_SECRET then configuration file is not required anymore. But when Centrifugo configured via environment variables it's not possible to reload configuration sending HUP signal to process.
• new stats command to export various stats and metrics over API call.
• new insecure_api option to turn on insecure HTTP API mode. Read more in docs chapter.
• minor clean-ups in client protocol. As protocol incapsulated in javascript client library you only need to update it.
• all supported libraries also got 1.0 versions

How to migrate

• Use new versions of Centrifugal libraries. Project key not needed in client connection parameters, in client token generation, in HTTP API client initialization.
• --web is now a boolean flag. Previously it was used to set path to admin web interface. Now it indicates whether or not Centrifugo must serve web interface. To provide path to custom web application directory use --web_path string option.

I.e. before v1 you started Centrifugo like this to use web interface:

centrifugo --config=config.json --web=/path/to/web/app

Now all you need to do is run:

centrifugo --config=config.json --web

And no need to download web interface repository at all! Just run command above and check http://localhost:8000.

If you don't want to use embedded web interface you can still specify path to your own web interface directory:

centrifugo --config=config.json --web --web_path=/path/to/web/app
