ChangeLog

New updates and product improvements.

18 April 2023

New: Add manual Cron job trigger to the dashboard. Useful for testing and debugging background jobs.
New: Add API endpoint to trigger an on-demand job.

Breaking Change: Remove Wasm support and scrap the edge functions idea entirely. Instead, ExecAPI is now a background job runner platform that can run any code you can run inside a Docker container.
New: Introduce workflows with script actions, which can be triggered by a Cron schedule or invoked on-demand using an HTTP request. Ideal for periodic background jobs and event-based jobs.
New: Email/password login.
New: Paid plans! But you still get a generous allowance of credits for free, no credit card required.
New: Usage records, so now you can see real-time billing costs and realize how little it costs to run background jobs over here 😇.

New: Add support for Wasm flavors of PHP, Python, and Ruby interpreters. Upload them into a /wasm-bin directory at the root of your project. Then you can upload .php, .py, and .rb scripts for that classic save-upload-refresh workflow.
New: Improvements to documentation and details of the WAGI environment.
New: Add ability to upload files directly through the dashboard.

Bug Fix: Sometimes, scripts would fail to execute if too many requests arrived at the same time.
New: Pre-compile Wasm scripts into an optimized format and cache them. This dramatically improves execution performance.
