Beta 13.12.2020

Time for the next release of IHP: v20201213 🎉

Major Changes

• Job Queue: We added a new job queue system that allows you to schedule jobs that are going to be executed outside the normal request-response cycle by a job worker running in the background. Documentation for this will follow soon.
  
• Documentation Improvements: Lots of typos, unclear wording and outdated code samples have been fixed.
• New Function: deleteRecordById: Like deleteRecord but you can pass an id instead of a full record.

Other Changes

• startPage now works with apps other than Web
• Improvements when using haskell or sql keywords in the schema designer
• Use bytestring for sql table names everywhere. This removes inefficient transforming table names from Text to bytestring and back all the time.
• The nonEmpty validator now works with Id record values
• Fixed an SQL error caused by inserting an postgres array column
• Added InputValue Aeson.Value instance, so form fields can be used with json fields
• Fixed js-delete breaks when html anchor is not the leaf element
• Haskell Code generated by HSX is more efficient now
• Improved inline behavior of lots of IHP functions
