The MongoDB Go Driver Team is pleased to release version 1.12.0-alpha1 of the official Go driver.

Release Notes

This release includes an experimental API for explicitly encrypting a range index, a patch to retry heartbeat on timeout, the deprecation of the x/bsonx package, as well as various performance optimizations to server selection functions.

Explicit Encryption for Range Index

Support "RangeOptions" for specifying index options for a Queryable Encryption field supporting "rangePreview" queries. This is an experimental feature.

Retry Heartbeat on Timeout

A patch to retry heartbeat on timeout errors to delay pool cleanup by one event loop.

X509 certificate being used as username for authentication

When adding a client certificate from bytes, the subject of the last certificate was being returned as the username for X509 auth after GODRIVER-2263, which did not match the order of loading a PEM file with multiple certs. This change updates the certificate subject string if the certDecodeBlock is never set.

Deprecate the "x/bsonx" Package

The bsonx package contains Doc, Arr, Elem, and Val types that are largely unused. These were a POC of a type-safe BSON API and were used extensively in the 1.0 driver, but the usages were replaced by bsoncore in v1.1.
