Hikari 2.0.0.dev111 (2022-09-26)

Breaking Changes

• Lifetime improvements breaking changes:
  • GatewayBot.join's until_close argument removed.
  • GatewayShardImpl.get_user_id is no longer async and will now always be available.
  • GatewayBotAware no longer defines the default parameters for join, start and run. It is left to implementation detail. (#1204)
• Remove support for ProcessPoolExecutor executor when reading files
  • It is much more efficient to use a threadpool executor for I/O actions like this one
    • Due to the nature of process pool, we were also not able to perform proper chunking when reading off the file (#1273)

Deprecation

• Deprecate CacheView.iterator in favour of using the itertools module. (#1289)

Features

• Add python 3.11-dev support. (#847)
• Support for Application Command Localizations. (#1141)
• Improve components lifetimes:
  • GatewayBot:
    • General speedups.
    • Fix a lot of edge cases of hard crashes if the application shuts unexpectedly.
    • More consistent signal handling.
    • run's shard_ids argument can now be a typing.Sequence.
    • Improved logging.
  • RESTBot:
    • Consistent signal handling inline with GatewayBot.
    • Improved logging.
    • Improved loop closing.
  • GatewayShardImpl:
    • New is_connected property to determine whether the shard is connected to the gateway.
    • Faster websocket pulling and heartbeating.
    • Improved error handling.
    • Rate limiting changes:
      • Chunking no longer has its own special ratelimit. Now it is shared with the rest of
        "non-priority" packages sent, which is of 117/60s (3 less than the hard limit).
        • "priority" packages currently only include heartbeating. (#1204)
• Implement slash option min/max length fields (#1216)
• Add mention property to PartialChannel. (#1221)
• Implement new Gateway reconnect logic enforced by Discord. (#1245)

• Fix hikari.impl.VoiceImpl.connect_to silently failing if the guild or voice channel do not exist by providing a timeout. (#1242)
