v1.0.0 Release Candidate 1

🚀 It's an extremely exciting day! 🚀

We are releasing the first release candidate of 1.0 SpacetimeDB!

In this version of SpacetimeDB, we do not expect to introduce any breaking changes to the user facing API. You can rest assured that if you build on this version it will be fully compatible or very nearly fully compatible with the final 1.0 release API.

While we reserve the right to add new APIs and make small changes before 1.0, this is more or less what 1.0 will look like!

NOTE! This is still a pre-release version. It is not the final 1.0 version of SpacetimeDB. As such we still suggest that developer exersize caution about using SpacetimeDB in production and be aware of the risks of pre-release software. Including the potential need to wipe their database instances or to manually migrate their data to the final 1.0 version.

SpacetimeDB identities are now OIDC compliant! This means that you'll have access to a huge host of existing tooling to create identities for your users and allow them to log in to your module through your own login flows and infrastructure.

CLI Improvements

• Login Flow Updates: We've dramatically improved how Identitys work in SpacetimeDB, including allowing you to use the same Identity across multiple SpacetimeDB clusters by logging into the website. This includes introducing new CLI login flow, including login show and logout commands.
• spacetime upgrade Update: Now uses --yes instead of the deprecated --force flag.
• Help Text Enhancements: Added help text for --build-options.
• Server Command Stabilization: Stabilized spacetime server subcommands and resolved issues with spacetime server edit.

Database Enhancements

• Renaming: "Database instance" renamed to "replica" for clearer terminology.
• Row-Level Security (RLS): Added a system table for RLS along with a new filter macro.
• Optimized Querying: Added non-unique index join iterator and a physical query plan with executors for performance improvements.
• Persistent Memory Metering: Enhanced energy metering for persistent memory and improved handling for large datasets.

Compression

• New Compression Options: Introduced gzip and none compression options; SDK now selects optimal compression.

Code and Dependency Updates

• C# Bindings: Bumped C# bindings to version 1.0.0, with improved codegen for managing DbConnection states.
• Code Cleanup: Removed obsolete elements like BytesWrapper and improved commit log traversal efficiency.
• Dependency Upgrades: Updated Wasmtime dependency; improved resilience of ARM64/AMD64 Docker builds.

Security and Identity Management

• JWT Handling: Enhanced JWT token handling with OIDC providers.
• Endpoint and Token Updates: Removed email recovery endpoints, deprecated SendGrid, and updated token formats for ID tokens.
• Short-Lived Token Fixes: Corrected the endpoint used for short-lived tokens.
