2021-10-27 V5.0.0

Breaking changes:

  • RoxVariant changed to RoxString

    • new RoxVariant(…​) ⇒ new RoxString(…​).

Fixes and Additions:

  • Can use register without a namespace:

    • Rox::register($container) will register the container under an empty string namespace (multiple register calls with the same namespaces are still not allowed!).

  • Added a User Space Error handling

    • It is recommended to wrap all handlers used in Rox platform (all CustomPropertyGenerator, ImpressionHandler, ConfigurationFetchedHandler, DynamicPropertyRule) with try-catch in order to be in the right context.

    • In case there will be an uncaught error, it will reach the UserspaceUnhandledErrorHandler handler which is simply a function registered via Rox::setUserspaceUnhandledErrorHandler.

    • You can use this handler for debugging, or for further error handling. An exception raised within this handler will be written to log.

    • If Rox::setUserspaceUnhandledErrorHandler was not called, errors will be written to the log.

  • Analytics / impressions

    • Starting with SDK 5, flags will always send impressions after setup (not only when targeting is enabled on the dashboard).

  • Impression handler parameters change

    • As experiments were removed, ImpressionArgs class now doesn’t have getExperiment() method. Objects returned by its getReportingValue() method now also provide isTargeting() property indicating whether the flag was evaluated by using the dashboard configurations.

  • New Flag Types Int/Double

    • In addition to RoxFlag and RoxString, we also added RoxInt and RoxDouble.

  • Added a graceful Rox::shutdown() function in order to free all the consumed resources.

    • Multiple Rox::setup() calls will be ignored if ROX wasn’t shutdown in between.

  • The minimum PHP version for SDK 5 is PHP 7.3. For old PHP versions, please use SDK 4.
