====================

Features and Enhancements
-------------------------
- Add ``:serial``, ``:model``, and ``:manu`` secondary properties to the ``it:host`` form.
(`1358 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1358>`_)

Bugfixes
--------
- Fix an issue in Storm where double quoted string values with backslash escaped characters in double quoted strings
were not being properly escaped during syntax parsing. Double quoted strings are now being processed with
``ast.literal_eval()``. This means that double quoted string values will be processed according to Python's
string literals as seen here https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#string-and-bytes-literals prior
to passing them into any sort of model normalization routines. Single quoted string values parsing is not affected by
this change.
(`1366 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1366>`_)
(`1370 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1367>`_)
- Fix an issue where a Daemon Share object was being tracked twice on the server side.
(`1363 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1363>`_)
- Fix an issue where Cron tasks could start prior to CoreModules loading being finalized.
(`1367 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1367>`_)
- Fix an issue with inconsistent test coverage for ``synapse.lib.link``.
(`1365 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1365>`_)

====================

Features and Enhancements
-------------------------
- Add ``$lib.inet.http.put()`` Stormtypes support to allow making HTTP PUT requests.
(`1358 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1358>`_)
- Add ``$llib.base64`` Stormtypes to allow for manipulation of base64 data in Storm.
(`1358 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1358>`_)
- Add healthcheck tooling that can be used to implement heartbeat support for Synapse Cells.
(`1344 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1344>`_)

Bugfixes
--------
- Fix an issue where the ``geo:dist`` was missing comparator support. This was fixed by caussing it to inherit from the
IntBase type.
(`1362 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1362>`_)

====================

Features and Enhancements
-------------------------
- Add a granular permission checking helper to the HTTPAPI Handler base.
(`1346 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1346>`_)
- Allow retrieval of data from a LMDB SlabSeqn object by arbitrary index bytes.
(`1342 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1342>`_)
- Add ``synapse.tools.hive.save`` and ``synapse.tools.hive.load`` to save an load arbitrary trees of a Hive.
(`1340 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1340>`_)
- Add support to the Cell to preload hive on **first** boot via a ``hiveboot.yaml`` file containing a serialized Hive
tree.
(`1340 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1340>`_)
- Add POST support to the ``/api/v1/storm`` and ``/api/v1/storm/nodes`` HTTP APIs.
(`1351 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1351>`_)
- Ensure that a Cortex always has an Axon available. By default, the Axon will be locally stored on disk in the Cortex
cell directory. This can alternatively be configured to point to a Axon URL via the ``axon`` configuration option
for a Cortex.
(`1349 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1349>`_)
- Add Stormtypes ``$lib.bytes.put()`` to allow storing a Storm variable, representing bytes, in the Axon configured for
a Cortex.
(`1349 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1349>`_)
- Add support for storing arbitrary key value data on a node.
(`1347 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1347>`_)
- Add ``geo:address`` type to record an arbitrary address string; add ``:address`` property to ``geo:place`` form. Convert
``ps:contact:address`` to be type ``geo:address``. This does involve a automatic data migration during Cortex startup.
(`1339 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1339>`_)
- Fix Axon permission handling for remote users to actually enforce permissions.
(`1354 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1354>`_)
- Add a new form, ``inet:url:mirror``, which represents URL content being mirror between two different URLs.

- Add support for defererencing a variable value in order to lift by a variable property name.
(`1350 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1350>`_)

Bugfixes
--------
- Fix an issue with the ``kill`` command failing when providing a purely numeric task identifier.
(`1343 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1343>`_)
- Fix an with logging the incorrect user value when terminating a task.
(`1343 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1343>`_)
- Replace ``asyncio.sleep()`` calls with ``self.waitfini()`` calls in loop retry code, to ensure that tasks do not end
up retrying after the object has been torn down if the ioloop is still running.
(`1353 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1353>`_)
- Remove codecov orb and use the codecov bash uploaded directly.
(`1355 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1355>`_)
(`1357 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1357>`_)
- Make the Storm ``max`` command aware of Ival types, and pull the maximum value based on the right hand side of the
interval.
(`1359 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1359>`_)

====================

Features and Enhancements
-------------------------
- Add a new Cortex configuration option, ``layer:lmdb:map_async``, to enable asynchronous fsync calls in LMDB layers.
(`1338 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1338>`_)
- Add ``asyncio.sleep(0)`` calls to Telepath generator loops to enable all Telepath generators to have fair scheduling
on the server side.
(`1341 <https://github.com/vertexproject/synapse/pull/1341>`_)
