Changelog for slack-web-1.5.0.0

1.5.0.0

Breaking changes

PostMsgRsp uses a Text instead of a String for the ts.
PostMsgReq uses Maybe for the text since it is optional if blocks or attachments are provided.

The following fields are now Maybe since they have been found to be absent in some responses:

ChannelConversation.channelSharedTeamIds
ChannelConversation.channelIsMember
ChannelConversation.channelNumMembers

Breaking changes since development versions

The SlackBlockSection constructor has a new Maybe field for accessories.

New features

chat.update bindings #112
users.conversations bindings #109
Generic pagination, making new requests easy to paginate #105
Expose an Internal module, allowing for new endpoints to be defined without changing slack-web #99
Three experimental features:
- Schemas for the Events API #107
- Request verification for webhooks #106
- Support for Blocks including a builder, headers, and accessories #100, #115, #116

Bug fixes

Conversation parse errors will pick the variant first, then let it fail. Messages now identify the correct variant and missing fields. #108

Project updates

Mercury now maintains this library.

CI has been rewritten, and a Nix flake is now provided.

We have gathered a fair corpus of sample data from Slack through the course of writing Slacklinker, which has been used to write a new snapshot test suite.

Thanks to Daniel Brice, Dennis Hennen, Claire Violet, Evan Relf, Jake Keuhlen, Rebecca Turner, Matthew Mongeau, and Kevin Tang for their contributions to this release!
