8.7.0 - Async Expedition

on GitHub

Add

• Add opt-in async cache type check API imageCachedTypeAsync to avoid synchronous disk access on the calling thread. #2480 #2323 @onevcat @jotai-coder
• Add optional cacheKey parameter for PhotosPickerItemImageDataProvider and PHPickerResultImageDataProvider for better cache control. #2479 @onevcat
• Support using an OperationQueue or equivalent interface in CallbackQueue for custom processing queue control. #2474 @onevcat

Fix

• {"Fix"=>"stabilize cacheKey for PhotosPicker/PHPicker data providers. Now uses stored property with picker-provided identifier or falls back to a per-instance UUID. #2478 @onevcat"}
• Fix a race condition crash in ImagePrefetcher.handleComplete when iterating sources during concurrent mutation. #2465 @erichoracek
• Fix GIF disk cache losing animation when original data is missing. Now DefaultCacheSerializer prefers embedded GIF bytes over re-encoding to PNG. #2454 #2453 @onevcat @rztime
• Fix a crash when accessing KingfisherWrapper<UIApplication>.shared in unit tests. #2450 @maxchuquimia
• Call async modifier start callback before resume to ensure proper callback timing. #2462 @onevcat
• Remove ActorBox and harden background task cleanup to fix Sendable/main actor issues. #2459 @onevcat
• Mark ImagePrefetcher callback types as @Sendable to fix Swift 6 concurrency warnings.
• Deprecate SwiftUI .onFailureImage modifier in favor of .onFailureView. #2451 #2449 @onevcat @sagarrai21802
