RUAL Core v13.0.6
Our platform operates on software, commonly known as core
. This software can be run either locally within the cloud environment of Enterprise Customers or within our AWS cluster.
Modified or newly introduced blocks
In this release 94 blocks have been modified and 25 new blocks were introduced. You'll find a complete list of blocks at the bottom of this page.
State UI to React
The State UI has undergone a significant overhaul, and we have transitioned to using React version 18.2.0 as the foundation for our front-end rendering. This update provides enhanced flexibility, enabling RUAL developers to create custom front-end code without necessitating modifications to the RUAL Core. However, this change introduces certain implications, including the deprecation of the state-to-value conversion blocks and the discontinuation of support for the legacy array map to state conversion. Although these methodologies are considered outdated, they may still be employed in certain areas and could lead to compatibility issues upon upgrading to this version.
Breaking change: mutations: set field
The block set fields mutations
has undergone a significant change. Previously, when a file
type inpin was used, the provided file(s) would be added to the existing files in the document. Now, this behavior has changed so that the field is overwritten, as one would anticipate from a set fields block. To accommodate the previous functionality, we have introduced a new block: add file mutations
.
