Release Notes for cardano-cli-10.1.1.0

Major Changes

• Introduce "compatible" command group

  Limited backward compatible commands for testing only.

Available options:
  -h,--help                Show this help text

Available commands:
  shelley                  Shelley era commands
  allegra                  Allegra era commands
  mary                     Mary era commands
  alonzo                   Alonzo era commands
  babbage                  Babbage era commands
  conway                   Conway era commands

This is a group of commands predominantly exposed for our testing requirements. It paves the way to deprecate all pre-mainnet eras from cardano-cli's interface as users are interested in interacting with the current era and the upcoming era if there is a hardfork on the horizon. Note, this does not imply that prior functionality introduced in previous eras will be unavailable.

• Large deprecation of legacy commands and removal of related code.
  (breaking)
  PR 905

We waited until after the Chang hardfork to begin refactoring cardano-cli (internal code and the external interface). This is still ongoing work but the summary of the changes are as follows:

cardano-cli - General purpose command-line utility to interact with
cardano-node. Provides specific commands to manage keys, addresses, build &
submit transactions, certificates, etc.
 Usage: cardano-cli

                      )

Note:

• Several of the era agnostic commands have been moved to the top level e.g key, address, node etc.

• The majority of the legacy commands have been removed and we intend to fully remove the legacy command group in future releases.

Expect future changes to the cli's interface but note that we will be socializing proposed changes via our working group to get feedback from the community.

Features

• Add voting to simple tx interface
• Handle Plutus related ledger events in Conway
• When building applications that need to spend from a script UTxO which has a datum attached,
  that off-chain code needs access to the raw Datum for evaluating the transaction and calculate fees.

• Reference scripts are enabled for Plutus V1 scripts. This enables legacy scripts to take advantage of reference scripts, reducing DApp
  costs and increasing on-chain capacity.
• The minFeeRefScriptsCoinsPerByte protocol parameter refines the Plutus cost model and improves fee calculations by allowing separate
  tuning of the costs for reference scripts.
