We have a big release for you today 🎉 🎉 ! We're including some big performance improvements ⚡ and long-awaited bugfixes 🐞! Remember to stay tuned for our 0.12 release soon.

This release includes some major breaking changes, so you won't be able to use your old databases with this version. Run spacetime local clear to remove them.

Important changes

Major

  • ⚡ We removed our usage of protobuf, in favor of our own internal format (#1077) - this is a big performance improvement on the client and the server!
  • ⌛ We removed the server-side schedule! macro and its equivalents in favor of table-based timers (#1449). Please check our server module docs for more info on how to use the new system.

Here is some example code which uses the new timer tables: 

// The `scheduled` attribute links this table to a reducer.
#[spacetimedb(table, scheduled(send_message))]
struct SendMessageTimer {
    text: String,
}

// Reducers linked to the scheduler table should have their first argument as `ReducerContext` 
// and the second as an instance of the table struct it is linked to.
#[spacetimedb(reducer)]
fn send_message(ctx: ReducerContext, arg: SendMessageTimer) -> Result<(), String> {
    // ...
}

// Scheduling reducers inside `init` reducer
fn init() {
    // Scheduling a reducer for a specific Timestamp
    SendMessageTimer::insert(SendMessageTimer {
        scheduled_id: 0,
        text:"bot sending a message".to_string(),
        //`spacetimedb::Timestamp` implements `From` trait to `ScheduleAt::Time`. 
        scheduled_at: ctx.timestamp.plus(Duration::from_secs(10)).into()
    });

    // Scheduling a reducer to be called at fixed interval of 100 milliseconds.
    SendMessageTimer::insert(SendMessageTimer {
        scheduled_id: 0,
        text:"bot sending a message".to_string(),
        //`std::time::Duration` implements `From` trait to `ScheduleAt::Duration`. 
        scheduled_at: duration!(100ms).into(),
    });
}
