0.4.0 Release Tracker

[TimoGlastra]

Discussion to list all relevant things for 0.4.0. Mainly it is a place to list the breaking changes (storage, non-storage), things that should be included in the migration script and general things relevant to the update.

Breaking Storage Changes

• credential record metadata keys and tags
• expected creation of link secret records, even when using the indy-sdk. Need to add optional defaultLinkSecretId for when the user used a custom masterSecretId when using the wallet. Otherwise we'll use the walletId
• updates to AnonCredsSchemaRecord and AnonCredsCredentialDefinitionRecord structure
• update of credentialRecordType from indy to anoncreds in CredentialExchangeRecord
• [optional, could be next release] Update all did:sov dids to did:indy dids
• remove DID_POOL_CACHE

Breaking Code Changes

• connectToIndyLedgerOnStartup has been removed. We now has connectOnStartup which can be added to each pool config individually. This way you can choose which ledger you want to connect to on startup
• The seed for indy sdk has been renamed to privateKey. The seed is not supported anymore by the indy sdk wallet.
• The type of seed has been changed from string to Buffer.
• IndyWallet, IndyStorageService and IndySdkSovDidResolver have been extracted to indy-sdk package
  • now have a IndySdk prefix
  • input seed has changed to privateKey, and type is now buffer (for both input and output)
• publicDidSeed and publicDid has been removed. See breaking change in PR feat!: allow to import created dids (and remove legacy publicDidSeed) #1325 for example code on how to import endorser did now
• more specific useLegacyDidSovPrefix
• refactor!: set default outbound content type to didcomm v1 #1314
• Changes to proofs and credentials api
• removal of ledger api in favour of anoncreds api
• connection has been changed to connection id in session
• indy-sdk removed from core, you need to provide it as a module now (or use new modules)
• change of indy credentials to anoncreds
• inejctionContainer has been deprecated in favour of dependencyManager (refactor(core)!: remove deprecated injectionContainer prop #1344)
• more granular filesystem paths (feat!: add data, cache and temp dirs to FileSystem #1306)
• refactor!: remove getKeyDidMappingByVerificationMethod #1350
• refactor!: remove Dispatcher.registerMessageHandler #1354
• refactor(cache)!: change default cache to in memory #1389
• refactor!: remove module specific config options #1393 (remove config from init config and also rename mediation module to mediation recipient)

@genaris any things I'm missing here in terms of breaking storage changes? We should also start accumulating a list of breaking API changes. Will be a lot for this release...
