redux-saga 1.0.0-beta.3

v1.0.0-beta.3

on Node.js NPM

This is rather a smaller release, but some things have changed or got improved.

Added:

• new rootSagaStarted hook for saga monitor

Changed:

• we reverted changing effect types to Symbols, this previous change has caused some problems and we came to conclusion that strings are "good enough" for us
• detach helper returns a new effect instead of mutating the input one
• we suspend the scheduler before running a root saga, so it should behave the same as forked sagas in terms of scheduling

Removed:

• asEffect, it shouldn't be used, effect types are public, effect shapes are stable, so if for whatever reason you want to do some effect inspection you can just check them without us providing additional helpers for it

Fixed:

• we have stopped interpreting effects returned from fork, this shouldn't affect any real-life code, affected patterns look like this fork(() => effectCreator()) and fork(takeEvery, 'type', fn)
• small memory leak for closed actionChannels

Polished:

• added dev warning about dispatching frozen actions, for scheduling purposes we are using Object.defineProperty on actions dispatched with put effect, so we have to be able to mutate the action object
• added dev warning about using async generators, they are not supported by redux-saga
• we are reusing @babel/runtime helpers, this has helped us to remove some bytes from our bundles
• CommonJS entries are proxied now. This means that process.env.NODE_ENV is read only once and based on that value the appropriate bundle (development or production) is loaded conditionally with require. process.env is slow in node.js so this should improve performance a little bit.
