Release v4.0.0

• Versions

  • ZWave JS Driver Version: 15.3.0
  • ZWave JS Server Version: 3.1.0 (Schema Version 43)

• Breaking Changes

  • You now need to build your own PSI for the platforms you wish to target.
    Having to maintain the build actions/platforms to keep these updated is eating into the time I have left.
    Building a PSI is relatively uneventful - please see the READ ME on how to do this.
  • DownloadPSI method on the Helper class has been removed.
  • Removed support for NET45 and NET5.0
    The supported frameworks are as follows:
    - NET 48
    - NET 6.0
    - NET 7.0
    - NET 80
    - NETSTANDARD 2.0
    - NETSTANDARD 2.1
  • enableSoftReset has been moved to features.softReset on the ZWaveOptions class
  • The NodeStatistics arg on the ZWaveNode class event StatisticsUpdated has been renamed to NodeStatisticsUpdatedArgs
  • The ControllerStatistics arg on the Controller class event StatisticsUpdated has been renamed to ControllerStatisticsUpdatedArgs
  • The InclusionResult argument has been renamed to InclusionResultArgs
  • The ValueUpdated event now uses a dedicated class for the args parameter
  • The ValueNotification event now uses a dedicated class for the args parameter
  • The NodeRemoved event now contains a reason Enum as to why it was removed.

    RebuildRoutesDone and RebuildRoutesProgress and not have dedicated classes for the args

    This is to address some unintentional communication between the Driver runtime and the lib.

  • Added SoftReset method to the Driver class
  • Added the ccSpecific property to the ValueMetadata class
  • Added the ability to add new server methods to the library during runtime.
    This is helpful if you want to use a method that is not yet implemented, or to support an older version of an exetrnal server

  • Massive structural / performance improvements
  • All event handlers are now executed with their own Task instance

Release v1.0.0

• Versions

  • ZWave JS Driver Version: 8.9.1
  • ZWave JS Server Version: 1.14.0 (Schema Version 14)

• Breaking Changes

  • endpoints object is no longer accessible on the ZWaveNode class, instead, they are acessed via
    ZWaveNode.GetEndpoint(int Index)

  • InvokeCCAPI no longer accepts an endpoint, instead InvokeCCAPI is now called on the ZWaveNode class itself,
    or an instance of Endpoint as obtained by ZWaveNode.GetEndpoint(int Index)

    These 2 changes now mirror the zwave-js API with regards to endpoint access.

    Examples:

    Driver.Controller.Nodes.Get(4).InvokeCCAPI(int CommandClass, string Method, params object[] Params)
    Driver.Controller.Nodes.Get(4).GetEndpoint(2).InvokeCCAPI(int CommandClass, string Method, params object[] Params)
