7.0.0-beta.1 - Version 7

on GitHub

Add

• Rewrite SwiftUI support based on @StateObject instead of the old @ObservedObject. It provides a stable and better data model backs the image rendering in SwiftUI. For this, Kingfisher SwiftUI supports from iOS 14 now. #1707
• Mark ImageCache.retrieveImageInMemoryCache(forKey:options:) as open to expose a correct override entry point to outside. #1703
• The NSTextAttachment extension method now accepts closure instead of a evaluated view. This allows delaying the passing in view to the timing which actually it is needed. #1746
• A KFAnimatedImage type to display a GIF image in SwiftUI. #1705
• Add a progress parameter to the KFImage's placeholder closure. This allows you create a view based on the loading progress. #1707

Fix

• Uses UIGraphicsImageRenderer on iOS and tvOS for better image drawing. #1706
• An issue that prevents Kingfisher compiling on mac Catalyst target in some certain of Xcode versions. #1692
• The KF.retry(:_) method now accepts an optional value. It allows to reset the retry strategy by passing in a nil value. #1729
• The placeholder view builder of KFImage now works when it gets changed instead of using its initial value forever. #1707
• Some minor performance improvement. #1739

Remove

• Drop support for iOS 10, macOS 10.13, tvOS 10 and watch OS 3.
• The workaround of KFImage.loadImmediately is not necessary anymore due to the model switching to @StateObject. The interface is kept for backward compatibility, but it does nothing in the new version. #1707
