Version 14 finally released after about a year of rewriting the code base and testing!

Noticeable changes:

  • Redesign, again. But it's wort it. The application looks so much lighter.
  • Workspaces - new way of importing data to ARC. The application window stores state data to a file. Nothing, new, but now it can use any file that the user points to. In menu you have option to point to a workspace file and current state is saved there instead of the default file.
  • Request config! Now request object can create its own configuration that overrides application global configuration. It allows to tune up the request without changing global settings.

Bug fixes

  • #166 - Content-* headers on GET request - now the app warns you before sending those headers with GET request.
  • Fixes #176 - Export to Google Drive
  • Fixes z-index of the toolbar to restore variables overlay rendering
  • Fixes export dialog in the history panel to include default file name
  • Fixes #176 - Google Drive export
  • fixed space normalization for path part of the URL in API Console

Goodies

  • #147 - Click on a link in the response view with CTRL/CMD key pressed will open new GET request in new tab
  • #123 - Now workspace has its own configuration file with set structure (see /docs/api/workspace.md)
  • #121 - Now it is possible to define variables on a workspace level. Workspace variables overrides application variables in case of conflict. With this release it is only possible to define variables in the configuration file.
  • Partially #125 and #119 - The app allows to define workspace metadata (description, creation time, author info), export workspace to file, and open the file with as a data source for the workspace. This allows you to create a workspace configuration (requests, variables, app-like configuration) and share it with others. This way, regardless application configuration, you will have the same environment.
  • New: Adding export dialog to request editor
  • New: Adding workspace files history menu
  • re-adding image and PDF files preview in the response view

Note, workspace changes are planned throughout several releases. Therefore tickets won't be closed until last functionality is implemented.

Changes

  • #124 - Web session URL input has been moved to the workspace instead of ARC app. It allows to configure the URL per workspace
  • Replaces export file extension from json to arc
  • Update: Updating themes. No, actually, removing old system and creating new. Complete redesign.
  • Update: Adding 404 response when component is missing in the source.
