# crew 1.1.0

* Change prefix in `name_worker()` from `crew-` to `crew-worker-`.
* Use `call_mirai()` instead of the now deprecated `call_mirai_()` (@shikokuchuo, #198).
* Add `crew_controller_sequential()` (#205).
* Add a `serialization` argument to `crew_client()` (#204).

# crew 1.0.0

* Avoid partial match in a call to `crew_terminate_process()`.
* Migrate to `mirai` 2.0.0 with the pair 1 poly protocol (#193). Most notably, all workers now share the same URL instead of having different web sockets for different workers. This gets rid of `crew`'s previous "slotted" model for workers.
* Prohibit duplicated task names in `push()`. (The task must be popped first before another task of the same name can be submitted.) This allows controllers to use hash tables to track tasks, which makes `push()` and `pop()` orders of magnitude faster. It is also needed for the new retry mechanism based on backup controllers and controller groups.
* Use exponential backoff in throttles.
* Share throttles between `scale()` and `wait()` to increase responsiveness.
* Use a unified throttle for controller groups, which requires refactoring `wait(mode = "all")` for controller groups.
* Name every task and record every command.
* Switch URLs from `ws://` (and `wss://`) to `tcp://` (and `tls+tcp://`) (#193).
* Change R-level error status code to -1 (previously 1).
* Add a queue class for resolved tasks to make `pop()` and `collect()` more efficient. `pop()` is 64 times faster.
* For clarity, rename the `"launcher"` column of the results to `"controller"`.
* Log crashes and cancellations separately from ordinary errors in `summary()`.

# crew 0.10.2

* Eliminate spurious `launch_max` error from underutilized workers (#189).
* Deprecate `launch_max` in favor of `crashes_error` (#189).
* Look for crashes of all workers in `rotate()` instead of looking for crashes of a specific worker in `launch()` (#189).
* Add a `crashes()` launcher method to allow plugins to detect and respond to crashes more easily.
* Change default `seconds_idle` to 300.
* Move `autometric` to `Suggests:`.

# crew 0.10.1

* Instrument `crew_eval()` with `autometric::log_phase_set()` and `autometric::log_phase_reset()`.

# crew 0.10.0

* Give full worker name in the worker launch error message (@multimeric).
* Start the controller automatically in more methods.
* Add an `r_arguments` argument to supply command line arguments to R for workers (#175, @rpruim).
* Add a `cancel()` controller method to cancel one or more tasks.
* Call `cancel(all = TRUE)` from `terminate()` as a safeguard.
* Make `client$dispatcher` a `ps::ps_handle()` handle and add a new `client$client` handle for the current process.
* To passively log memory usage when `log_resources` is given, the controller now calls `log()` as a side effect in most controller methods, with throttling to preserve speed.
* Return a status and status code from `pop()` etc.
* New internal function `as_monad()` makes error reporting more consistent.
* Use `path.expand()` on local log files.
* Switch to `Rscript`.
* Print session info from `crew_worker()` before attempting to dial into `mirai`.
* Add `asyncdial = FALSE` back to `mirai::daemon()` call.
* Deprecate `local_log_directory` and `local_log_join` in favor of `crew_options_local()` and the `options_local` argument.
* Add `crew_options_metrics()` and the `options_metrics` argument for recording resource metrics (#178).
* Add a new `logging.Rmd` vignette to explain best practices for logging and resource usage metrics (#178).

# crew 0.9.5

* CRAN patch.

# crew 0.9.4

* Do not use extended tasks in Shiny vignette.
* Add a new `retry_tasks` argument with default `TRUE` (#170).
* Avoid Base64 encoding functions from `nanonext`

# crew 0.9.3

* Deprecate native `crew` promises in favor of native event-driven promises in `mirai` (#162).
* Update the `shiny.Rmd` and `promises.Rmd` vignette to recommend native event-driven `mirai` promises (#162).

# crew 0.9.2

* Use `.args` rather than `...` in `mirai::mirai()` to make sure arguments continue to be passed as local variables in `mirai` >= 0.13.1.9012.
* Add new controller methods `autoscale()`, `descale()`, and `started()` to facilitate different kinds of Shiny apps.
* Deprecate the `scale` and `throttle` methods of `controller$promise()`. `promise()` now always calls `autoscale()` to make sure one and only one auto-scaling loop is running asynchronously. Auto-scaling thus continues even after the promise resolves.
* Add a second example vignette that simulates coin flips.
* Add a new `error` argument to `collect()` (#166).

# crew 0.9.1

* Rewrite the async Shiny vignette with `crew` promises and Shiny extended tasks (#157, @jcheng5).
* Clarify the intent of `controller$promise(mode = "one")` in the vignette on promises (@jcheng5).
* Implement an `error` argument in `pop()` which may help with integration with `ExtendedTask` (@jcheng5).
* Handle task errors in the Shiny vignette (@jcheng5).

# crew 0.9.0

* Require `nanonext` >= 0.12.0 and `mirai` >= 0.12.0.
* Return to always re-launching backlogged inactive workers (#79, https://github.com/shikokuchuo/mirai/discussions/95).
* Implement `push_backlog()` and `pop_backlog()` to manage cases when it is not desirable to push to saturated controllers (https://github.com/ropensci/targets/issues/1220).
* Invisibly return the `mirai` object of a task pushed to the controller. This allows users to interact with the task directly, e.g. to create a promise object with `promises::as.promise()` (#146, @jcheng5).
* Add a new `walk()` method for controllers and controller groups to submit tasks in batch and return control immediately without waiting for any task to complete (#148, @jcheng5).
* Revive the `collect()` method for popping multiple tasks at once (#148, @jcheng5).
* Add controller group methods `nonempty()`, `resolved()`, `unresolved()`, and `unpopped()` to help with #148.
* Make the `mirai` dispatcher error message extremely verbose.

# crew 0.8.0

* Configure workers to send themselves a termination signal if the connection to the dispatcher is broken (#141, @psychelzh). Huge thanks to @shikokuchuo for the support through https://github.com/shikokuchuo/mirai/issues/87, https://github.com/shikokuchuo/mirai/pull/88, and https://github.com/shikokuchuo/nanonext/pull/25! The signal itself is platform-dependent and determined by the new function `crew_terminate_signal()`.
* Implement `crew_monitor_local()` to help users monitor and terminate local R processes created by `crew` and `mirai`.
* Implement new utility function `crew_terminate_process()` to terminate a process manually without resorting to `SIGKILL` on Windows.
* Throw a warning from `controller$map()` if at least one task threw one. `warnings = FALSE` suppresses this behavior.
* Set `output = TRUE` in `daemon()` so `stdout` and `stderr` streams print.
* Add new arguments `local_log_directory` and `local_log_join` to write to local log files.

# crew 0.7.0

* Migrate from `asyncdial` to `autoexit`.
* Use `Sys.info()[["user"]]` to get the user in `crew_clean()` (#135, @luwidmer).
* Use condition variables to wait for tasks more efficiently (#108).
* Because of #108, `controller$map()` can no longer be used if there are tasks waiting to be popped.
* Use a `cli` progress bar in `map()`.
* Encapsulate non-function `R6` members in the `private` list and add active bindings where interfaces are necessary (#137). Ad hoc tests that absolutely need to modify private objects can use `object$.__enclos_env__$private` trick, but these tests should be skipped on CRAN in case there is a change to `R6` that breaks this.
* Drop `.signal` from `mirai::mirai()` since all `mirai` tasks signal as of `mirai` version 0.11.2.9025.
* Implement `crew_throttle()`, a decoupled mechanism for throttling that can be applied to scaling.
* Bring back the `throttle` argument, powered by `crew_throttle()`.
* Retry `mirai::status()` again in `daemons_info()` and make it configurable using `seconds_interval` and `seconds_timeout` in both the client and the launcher (#128).

# crew 0.6.0

* Migrate checks to enforce features in version 0.5.0 for reverse dependencies.
* Drop check of backlogged workers, c.f. https://github.com/shikokuchuo/mirai/discussions/63#discussioncomment-7051889 (#79, #124, @shikokuchuo).
* Deprecate `seconds_exit` because `exitlinger` in `mirai` is now obsolete (#125, @shikokuchuo).
* Use `mirai::nextget("cv")` to count unresolved tasks instead of looping through all the task objects (#131).
* Remove throttling and `collect()` in auto-scaling. Simplifies much of the code. Made possible by the efficiency gains in #131.
* Simplify `wait()`.
* `seconds_interval` in `map()` no longer defaults to `controller$client$seconds_interval`.
* `launcher$terminate_workers()` terminates one or more workers, and `launcher$terminate` terminates the whole launcher.
* Add infrastructure to let custom launcher plugins launch and terminate workers asynchronously (#133). Launchers can set a positive number in the `processes` field to set the number of local `mirai` daemons for asynchronous requests to launch and terminate the serious workers. Then, `launch_worker()` and `terminate_worker()` can optionally make use of `launcher$async$eval()` to send these asynchronous calls.

# crew 0.5.0

* Suppress interactive browser on Windows which launched on each worker previously (@psychelzh).
* Migrate to the new host/daemon nomenclature in `mirai` 0.9.1 (#96).
* Suppress `status()` retries (@shikokuchuo, #100).
* Implement `launch_max` to error out if workers repeatedly launch without completing any tasks (#101, @shikokuchuo, @multimeric).
* Detect discovered workers more robustly in `launcher$done()`.
* Add a new `algorithm` argument to the `push()`, `shove()`, and `map()` methods of controllers and controller groups, as well as arguments/fields in `crew_eval()` and its return value (#113, @shikokuchuo).
* As a default for pseudo-random number generation, leverage widely-spaced L'Ecuyer streams as supported by `mirai::nextstream()` (#115, @shikokuchuo).
* Move README documentation to vignettes.
* Add a new `crew_tls()` function for TLS configuration (#120).
* Deprecate the `tls_enable` and `tls_config` arguments of `crew_client()` etc. in favor of a `tls` argument which accepts `crew_tls()` objects (#120).

# crew 0.4.0

## Highlights

* Use the TLS capabilities of `nanonext` and `mirai`.
* Add a `map()` method to the controller class for functional programming (#93).
* Fix bug in `scale()` which launched too many workers when `active - demand` was less than 0.
* Add `crew_clean()` to help clean up any lingering dispatchers and workers from previous sessions.

## Other improvements

* Remove temporary controller summary workaround that ensured CRAN compatibility with `targets` 1.1.3.
* Add guardrails to make sure the controller is started for methods that require this. Part of this involved improving the error messages.
* Retry `daemons()` in `daemons_info()`.

# crew 0.3.0

* Track warnings properly (#81, @brendanf).
* Optimize heavily (#81, #83, @shikokuchuo, @brendanf).
* Use CRAN `nanonext` 0.9.0.
* Delegate the task pushing and collection logic to a new `R6` schedule class (#84).
* Delegate auto-scaling to the launcher (#84).
* Drastically simplify internal logic (#84).
* Rename "router" to "client" and change the function signature of `launch_worker()` (#84). Unfortunately neither of these changes is back-compatible for third-party launcher plugins. However, the controller interface is still back-compatible, so `targets` remains unaffected.
* Terminate "lost" workers on websocket rotation.
* Allow `NULL` result in `pop()$result[[1L]]`.
* Delegate summaries among the controller, schedule, launcher, and client.
* Default to the loopback address for the local controller.
* Use already cumulative `assigned` and `complete` stats from `mirai` 0.8.7.9029.
* Reorganize `pkgdown` reference and `Rd` families to clarify which parts are for end-users and which parts are for launcher plugin developers.
* Add `controller$shove()` and `schedule$list()` to support fast extensions for functional programming.
* Depend on `mirai` 0.9.0 or greater.

* Add a `worker_index` column to controller summaries.
* When relaunching workers, prioritize those with unresolved tasks stuck at the NNG level (#75, @shikokuchuo).
* Always relaunch backlogged inactive workers (#79).
* Deprecate the `auto_scale` argument/field of controllers in favor of the `scale` argument of `push()`, `pop()`, and `wait()`.
* Throttle auto-scaling with interval `self$router$seconds_interval` (#76).
* Remove `clean()` and instead terminate lost workers on launch.
* Fix examples.
* Add a `collect` argument to `pop()`.

* Open and confirm bus socket listeners asynchronously in the launcher abstract class (#58).
* Use condition variables to test the connection status of worker instances (#57, @shikokuchuo).
* Allow the dispatcher process to not exist so that the router will keep working if `mirai` implements the dispatcher another way (#60).
* Add a `substitute` argument to `push()` (#63).
* Remove dependency on custom NNG bus sockets, which significantly simplifies the internals, improves robustness, and smooths the integration with `mirai` (#61).
* Use `processx` instead of `callr` for the local process launcher (#64").
* Speed up `crew_eval()` by e.g. relying on `nanonext::mclock()` for the time.
* Add an `empty()` method to check if the controller or controller group is empty.
* Rely on `mirai` for globals cleanup, garbage collection, and global option resets (#65).
* Expose the package unloading capabilities of `mirai` (#65).
* Make monads classed environments and leave tibbles to the last minute in `pop()`.
* Rename `crew_wait()` to `crew_retry()`.
* Export `crew_assert()` and `crew_random_name()` to help launcher plugins.
