Minor Changes

• 79d13e9: allow disabling visitor key cookie

  You can now configure or disable the visitor key cookie @happykit/flags sets by default. You can pass a serializeVisitorKeyCookie function to the options when calling createUseFlags and createGetFlags.

Minor Changes

• e473304: add Next.js App Router support

  HappyKit has a feature called visitorKey, you can learn more about it here. If you want to use this feature with App Router you need to set the cookie from middleware using the ensureVisitorKeyCookie from @happykit/flags/edge. See the example/middleware.ts file in this repository for an example of how to do this. This is necessary as App Router pages can not set any cookies when they render, so we have to fall back to setting the cookie from middleware instead. If you do not need the visitorKey for your custom evaluation rules or rollouts then you do not need to set the cookie from middleware.

Major Changes

• 1822587: BREAKING CHANGE: Configuration overhaul

  What

  This release changes HappyKit's configuration approach.

  Previously you had to create a flags.config.js file and import it into your pages/_app.js and into every middleware that wanted to use feature flags. If you were using your own AppFlags type, you also had to pass this type every time you invoked getFlags(), useFlags() or getEdgeFlags(). And the configuration options for client-, server- and edge were mixed together into a single flags.config.js file.

  Why

  This release replaces the existing configuration approach with a new one. This new approach configuration prepares happykit for upcoming features.

  How

  1. Add flags folder

  Follow the updated Setup instructions to create the flags folder in your own application, and fill it with.

  After this step, you should have

  • ./flags/config.ts which exports a configuration
  • ./flags/client.ts which exports a useFlags function
  • ./flags/server.ts which exports a getFlags function
  • ./flags/edge.ts which exports a getEdgeFlags function

  2. Set up absolute imports

  Enable Absolute Imports as described here.

  3. Adapt your imports

  Then change the application code in your pages/ folder to use these functions from your flags/ folder instead of from @happykit/flags:

  - import { useFlags } from "@happykit/flags/client"
  + import { useFlags } from "flags/client"

  - import { getFlags } from "@happykit/flags/server"
  + import { getFlags } from "flags/server"

  - import { getEdgeFlags } from "@happykit/flags/edge"
  + import { getEdgeFlags } from "flags/edge"

  _Note that because of the absolute imports we configured in step 2, all imports from "flags/" will use the local flags folder you created in step 1.*

  4. Delete your old setup

  We can now delete the old setup since we no longer need it

  • delete flags.config.js
  • remove the flags.config import from your pages/_app file
    • you might be able to delete the pages/_app file if it's not doing anything else anymore
  • remove the import of flags.config from your middleware

v2.0.7

Adds support for node v18

• removes the AbortController polyfill. The AbortController is now only used if it exists as a global in the surrounding environment

v2.0.6

• config did not update when used as esm bundle, introduced internal getConfig() to fix it #24

Breaking change

If you were doing import { config } from "@happykit/flags/config", you now need to import { getConfig } from "@happykit/flags/config". I believe most people are not importing config into their app.

This was a breaking I only realized after publishing as v2.0.6, so the sem ver does not reflect the breaking change. I apologize if this broke your build.

v2.0.5-perf.0 (Latency Metrics Release)

This is a special once-off release which is equal to v2.0.5, except for additional latency metrics reporting.

v2.0.5

• remove unnecessary next.js dependency

v2.0.4

• upgrades a bunch of dependencies
