20 Commits • 3 Features
Jan 1, 2026January 2026 - Delivered key API enhancements, reliability fixes, and technical upgrades across the EvitaDB codebase. Major wins include generic GraphQL interfaces for entity references with cross-schema pagination, and improved descriptors/builders for flexible querying. Hardened ordering constraints to enforce a single-order per request and added robust error handling for violations. Strengthened string utilities with improved abbreviation handling and broader test coverage. Upgraded EvitaLab to v2026.1.0 to leverage latest features and fixes. Improved API docs and consistency (OpenAPI naming, diagrams) to aid adoption. Result: increased query flexibility, API stability, and faster feature delivery, with clearer developer experience and better data access patterns.

Nov 1, 2025November 2025 focused on expanding and stabilizing the mutation and streaming data surfaces in evitaDB. Delivered the Mutation API Schema and Descriptor Enhancements, introducing a unified API schema for output mutations, enabling object descriptors to implement interface descriptors, override properties by name, and supporting mutation unions. Also delivered CDC Streaming API Enhancements with untyped GraphQL CDC subscriptions delivering change data as generic JSON, along with new ChangeCatalogCaptureRequest and ChangeSystemCaptureRequest descriptors and updated streaming protocol docs. The work included refactoring mutation descriptors and SystemRestBuilder, removing outdated tests, and adding object descriptor normalization tests to improve mutation system usability. Docs improvements include a CDC blog post and better REST CDC documentation. Overall, these changes improve client integration, real-time data access, and system extensibility, reinforcing business value through more flexible mutation behavior and robust streaming capabilities.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025 delivered key platform improvements in evitaDB: API mutation handling refactor, CDC streaming enhancements across REST/GraphQL, language grammar upgrades in EvitaLab, and code style standardization. The API mutation refactor introduces new mutation descriptors, renamed classes, and an aligned mutation schema, enabling clearer, more extensible mutations. CDC API and streaming provide REST/GraphQL endpoints, DTOs, WebSocket handlers, and live streaming of system and catalog changes, with accompanying documentation. EvitaLab grammar upgraded to 2025.6.0 to improve syntax support and editor tooling. A targeted code style cleanup standardized chained call alignment with no functional changes. Overall, these efforts improve API clarity, enable real-time data propagation, and enhance developer productivity and maintainability, aligning with roadmap goals.

Sep 1, 2025September 2025 monthly summary for FgForrest/evitaDB focused on delivering enhanced data handling, API capabilities, and reliability. Key features delivered include EvitaLab client library updates (version 2025.5.2) with improved data handling, conversion, date/time formatting, zone handling, and robust error management; and refinements to price context handling in GraphQL along with updated catalog filtering documentation. Major infrastructure work added UUID serialization support and new engine/infrastructure mutations, accompanied by updated tests. Additionally, a bug fix ensured price context is sourced from the entity decorator rather than GraphQL’s own implementation, with supporting documentation fixes. Overall impact: Improved data accuracy, API completeness, and reliability across client and server surfaces. Strengthened testing coverage and documentation to accelerate onboarding and integration. Business value realized through more robust data processing, clearer pricing context semantics, and expanded mutation capabilities for future features.
