Minor changes

• Allowing socket objects to be passed to the Client constructor, enabling compatibility with other socket libraries.
• added warning on misnamed config parameters
• added a client disconnect() method that is an alias for destroy()
• added a secure property on ws transport config for simpler wss
• throws an error on channel subscription with non-function handler
• added path validation for ipc
• cleaned up residual timer when disconnecting a udp client
• updated documentations

Breaking changes

• Updated bundling for greater compatibility (exports may behave differently)
• Deprecated the WebRTC Transport (too convoluted to fit the Kalm model)
• Changed the signature of the frame event handler from (frame: RawFrame, payloadBytes: number) to ({ body: RawFrame, payloadBytes: number}) to ensure all event handlers only have one arguments.

Minor changes

• Added support for the new native WS APIs in Node 22 and later
• Removed yarn from the toolchain. There's no reason to keep it now that NPM workspaces are more mature.
• Deprecated the agent property for the WS Transport
• Migrated the underlying Node EventEmitter to the cross-platform EventTarget system. A translation layer should keep end-user code intact.
• Fixed server connections not getting cleaned up
• Removed empty channels from frame payloads, saving bandwidth
• Changed the subscribe handler's second argument name from frame to context, to reduce confusion with its nested frame property.
• Fixed missing UDP client connect event.
• Removed the potentially misleading argument in the connect event since it only exposes the unbound socket.
• Bumped engines requirement to Node 20.x

Major changes

• Added descriptions in TS definition file:
  
• Standardized parameter names and expected behavior
  • Removed secure WS option, instead checking if cert and key are set
  • Routines.dynamic option hz is now maxInterval and is measured in milliseconds
  • Renamed provider internally to server for easier understanding
  • Removed previously deprecated UDP connectTimeout option
• Added UDP idle timeout behavior, configurable with socketTimeout
• Added WS idle timeout behavior, configurable with socketTimeout
• Added WS agent option for passing a custom https.Agent.
• frameId counter now goes up to 0xffffffff before cycling instead of 0xffff

Bug fixes

• Fixed an issue in Routines.tick where all queues shared the same frameId counter
• Routines.tick option seed now correctly sets the frameId and starts the counter to match the expected pace
• Fixed references to Node modules in TS definitions

Housekeeping

• Updated dependencies
• Removed extraneous linting packages (using recommended instead)
• Better ts definition management

Full Changelog: v6.0.0...v7.0.0

Features

• Client reference in subscribe callback is now fully featured instead of a shallow config object.

Bug fixes

• Fixed importing when using typescript (breaking change)
