Version 0.6.0: Rich Interactions with Instances & DNS

Introduction

The Aleph.im CLI client version 0.6.0 marks a significant milestone in the evolution of the platform, introducing a suite of powerful new features and essential fixes that dramatically enhance its functionality and user experience.

Split into aleph-client and aleph-sdk-python

A substantial portion of the codebase has been migrated from the aleph-client to the new aleph-sdk-python, streamlining the architecture and paving the way for more robust and scalable development. This change clearly distinguishes between the CLI and SDK, making development with the SDK less bloated. Many improvements to the SDK since 0.5.1 and before the migration have been collected in these release notes.

Many UI/UX Improvements

In version 0.6.0, users can expect to find exciting new functionalities such advanced instance creation capabilities and custom domain support. The release also addresses critical fixes and improvements, ensuring greater stability and smoother operation. This release brings not only functional enhancements but also significant aesthetic and usability improvements, particularly through the integration of the rich library.

New CLI Commands

• Instance Management Commands (#178 & #192):
  • aleph instance create: Creates a new instance with the help of a wizard.
  • aleph instance delete: Deletes or forgets an existing instance.
  • aleph instance list: Lists all your instances and how to connect to them.
• Message Signing Command (#164):
  • aleph message sign: Allows users to sign JSON strings as Aleph messages.
  • aleph account sign-raw: Signs any UTF-8 encoded string, useful for dApp development.
• CLI Version Command (#169):

  • Both commands support filtering based on the owner's address (--address) and node activity (--active).

Fixes and Improvements

• Workflow Fixes (#176, #186): Corrected the test_build.yml workflow and made aleph instance delete use async.
• Dependency Fixes (#179, #180, #181, #182): Addressed the missing requests dependency, upgraded aleph-message to version 0.4.1, replaced requests module with aiohttp, and fixed nuls2 dependencies.

Notable Refactoring and Migrations

• Migrate Message Commands to SDK (#163, #166): Major code migration from aleph-client to aleph-sdk-python.
