Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`][:ref:`select-drilldowns-label-key-vector-expansions-power-set`] Vector's power set is now able to aggregate with the drilldowns.

  A new option ``key_vector_expansion`` is added to drilldowns.
  Currently, ``NONE`` or ``POWER_SET`` can be specified for ``key_vector_expansion``. 
  
  Specifying ``POWER_SET`` to ``key_vector_expansion`` allows to aggregate for power set case.
  This method of aggregation is useful to aggregate total number of individual and combination tag occurrence at once.  

  Following example is to see aggregating total number of individual and combination occurrence for following 3 tags,
  ``Groonga``, ``Mroonga``, and ``PGroonga``.

  Sample case:

  ``--match_columns "contents[1]"`` specifies only 2nd vector elements of ``contents`` as the search target. 
  In this sample, ``["I like Groonga", "Use Groonga with Ruby"]`` is shown in the results because ``Ruby`` is in 2nd element ``Use Groonga with Ruby``. 
  However, ``["I like Ruby", "Use Groonga"]`` is not shown in results because ``Ruby`` is not in 2nd element ``Use Groonga``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added support for ``YYYY-MM-DD`` time format.

  ``YYYY-MM-DD`` is a general time format.
  Supporting this time format made ``load`` more useful.

  The time of the loaded value is set to ``00:00:00`` on the local time.

  This bug is reported to occur when condition meet following 1., 2., and 3..
  
  1. Keys are normalized in the target table. 

     In this sample, it meets condition specifying ``--normalizer NormalizerNFKC130`` in ``Normalizations``. 
     Original keys, ``Ⅰ`` , ``Ⅱ`` ,and ``Ⅲ``, are normalized each into ``i``, ``ii``, ``iii`` with ``NormalizerNFKC130``.
  
  2. Same characters in the normalized key are included in the other normalized key. 
  
     In this sample, it meets condition because normalized key ``iii`` includes the characters ``ii`` and ``i``, same with other normalized keys which are original key ``Ⅱ`` and ``Ⅰ``.     

  3. Same characters of 2nd condition are used multiple times.
  
     In this sample, it meets condition because normalized key ``iiii``, original key ``ⅡⅡ`` with ``NormalizerNFKC130``, is considered as same with normalized key for ``Ⅲ`` and ``Ⅰ`` with ``NormalizerNFKC130``. 
       
     Normalizing ``iiii`` with ``Normalizations`` takes following steps and it meets the condition.
     
     * First ``iii`` ( applied for ``Ⅲ`` )
      
       ``ii`` or ``i`` are not used at first because :doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_table` works 
       with the Longest-Common-Prefix search.
     
     * Last ``i`` ( applied for  ``Ⅰ`` )

Release 12.1.0 - 2022-11-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/load`] Added support for slow log output of ``load``.

  This feature is for Groonga's performance tuning.
  For example, you can use this feature to detect records that are taking time longer than average when ``load`` is slow.

  Slow log output would be enabled with specifying ``GRN SLOWLOG THRESHOLD`` as the Environment variable.

  Here is about specifying ``GRN_SLOW_LOG_THRESHOLD``.

  * ``GRN_SLOW_LOG_THRESHOLD`` requires specifying time in seconds as a threshold. The time of the threshold can shorter than a second with specifying decimal number.
  * A log with debug level would be output if the processing time takes longer than specifyed time with ``GRN_SLOW_LOG_THRESHOLD``.

  Setting for log level would be controled with :option:`log-level <groonga --log-level>` or :doc:`reference/commands/log_level`.

  What value to specify ``GRN_SLOW_LOG_THRESHOLD`` would depend on its environment and checking purpose.
  For an example, we can use following setting to check which records are taking longer time for ``load``.
  For this, we specify the value based on necesarry time per 1 record caliculated with  total number and time of ``load``.

  Necessary time to process `load` would be checked in :ref:`query-log`.

  .. code-block::

     2022-11-16 16:41:27.139000|000000CE63AFF640|>load --table Memo
     2022-11-16 16:43:40.841000|000000CE63AFF640|:000133702000000 load(100000): [0][0][100000]

  In this example, the time would be as following;

  * Number of records: 100000
  * Time to process: 2 minutes 13 seconds = 133 seconds ( Based on Time stamp for beginning ``load`` : 16:43:27 and time stamp for end of ``load`` ( ``rc=0`` ): 16:43:40 )
  * Time to process 1 record:  0.00133 seconds (133 divided with 100000)

  Therefore, we specify ``0.00133`` as a threshold in ``GRN_SLOW_LOG_THRESHOLD`` to check which records are taking longer time for ``load``.

  Note: Enabling slow log may cause following bad effects.

  *  Performance degradation
  *  Larger log size
  
  Thus, the slow log is recommended to be enabled only necessary occasion.
  
* [:doc:`reference/api`] Added new API ``grn_is_reference_count_enable()``.
  
  This new API would return boolean weather reference count mode is enabled or not.

* [:doc:`reference/api`] Added new API ``grn_set_reference_count_enable(bool enable)``.

  This new API would enable or disable reference count mode. 

  For secure usage,  this API can't switch reference count mode if there are multiple open database. 

* [:doc:`reference/api`] Added new API  ``grn_is_back_trace_enable()``.
  
  This new API would return boolean weather logging back trace is enabled or not.

* [:doc:`reference/api`] Added new API ``grn_set_back_trace_enable(bool enable)``.

  This new API would enable or disable logging back trace. 

  In some environments, Groonga crashes when logging back trace, 
  logging back trace should be disabled in such envoronments.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/status`] Added new items: ``back_trace`` and ``reference_count``.

  ``reference_count`` indicates weather logging back trace is enabled or not as boolean.

  ``back_trace`` indicates weather logging back trace is enabled or not as boolean.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`][:doc:`reference/columns/vector`] Fixed a bug displaying integer in the results when a weight vector column specifies `WEIGHT FLOAT32`.

  This bug was only appeared in use of a weight vector column without reference type. A reference type weight vector column does not have this bug.

  The bug only affected on the final result display even though internal processes was in floating-point number.

.. _release-12-0-9:

Release 12.0.9 - 2022-10-28
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`install/almalinux`] Added support for AlmaLinux 9.
  
  We had added this support at :ref:`release-12-0-8` but haven't announced it.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/escalate`] Added a document for the ``escalate()`` function.

* [:doc:`reference/normalizers`] Added ``NormalizerHTML``. (Experimental)

  ``NormalizerHTML`` is a normalizer for HTML.

  Currently ``NormalizerHTML`` supports removing tags like ``<span>`` or ``</span>`` and expanding character references like ``&amp;`` or ``&#38;``.

  Here are sample queries for ``NormalizerHTML``.

  .. code-block::

    normalize NormalizerHTML "<span> Groonga &amp; Mroonga &#38; Rroonga </span>"
    [[0,1666923364.883798,0.0005481243133544922],{"normalized":" Groonga & Mroonga & Rroonga ","types":[],"checks":[]}]

  In this sample ``<span>`` and ``</span>`` are removed, and ``&amp;`` and ``&#38;`` are expanded to ``&``.

  We can specify whether removing the tags with the ``remove_tag`` option.
  (The default value of the ``remove_tag`` option is ``true``.)

  .. code-block::

     normalize 'NormalizerHTML("remove_tag", false)' "<span> Groonga &amp; Mroonga &#38; Rroonga </span>"
     [[0,1666924069.278549,0.0001978874206542969],{"normalized":"<span> Groonga & Mroonga & Rroonga </span>","types":[],"checks":[]}]

  In this sample, ``<span>`` and ``</span>`` are not removed.

  We can specify whether expanding the character references with the ``expand_character_reference`` option.
  (The default value of the ``expand_character_reference`` option is ``true``.)

  .. code-block::

     normalize 'NormalizerHTML("expand_character_reference", false)' "<span> Groonga &amp; Mroonga &#38; Rroonga </span>"
     [[0,1666924357.099782,0.0002346038818359375],{"normalized":" Groonga &amp; Mroonga &#38; Rroonga ","types":[],"checks":[]}]

  In this sample, ``&amp;`` and ``&#38;`` are not expanded.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.23.2.

  Contains security fixes of CVE-2022-41741 and CVE-2022-41742.
  Please refer to https://nginx.org/en/CHANGES about these security fixes.

* Suppressed logging a lot of same messages when no memory is available.

  Groonga could log a lot of ``mmap failed!!!!`` when no memory is available.
  We improved to log the above message as less duplicates as possible.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Fixed a bug that Groonga could crash or return incorrect results when specifying :ref:`select-n-workers`.

  This bug had occurred when using :ref:`select-n-workers` with a value greater than ``1`` and ``drilldowns[{LABEL}].filter`` at the same time.

  The reason why this bug occurred was because Groonga referenced incorrect values (objects) when performing internal parallel processing.
  So if the condition above was satisfied, Groonga sometimes crashed or returned incorrect results depending on the timing of the parallel processing.

.. _release-12-0-8:

Release 12.0.8 - 2022-10-03
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Changed specification of the ``escalate()`` function (Experimental) to make it easier to use.

  We changed to not use results out of ``escalate()``.
  
  In the previous specification, users had to guess how many results would be passed to ``escalate()`` to determin the first threshold, which was incovenient.

  Here is a example for the previous ``escalate()``.

  .. code-block::

     number_column > 10 && escalate(THRESHOLD_1, CONDITION_1,
                                    ...,
                                    THRESHOLD_N, CONDITION_N)

  ``CONDITION1`` was executed when the results of ``number_column > 10`` was less or equal to ``THRESHOLD_1`` . 
  Users had to guess how many results would they get from ``number_column > 10`` to determine ``THRESHOLD_1``.

  From this release, the users don't need to guess how many results will they get from ``number_column > 10``, making it easier to set the thresholds.

  With this change, the syntax of ``escalate()`` changed as follow.

  The previous syntax

  .. code-block::

     escalate(THRESHOLD_1, CONDITION_1,THRESHOLD_2, CONDITION_2, ..., THRESHOLD_N, CONDITION_N)

  The new syntax

  .. code-block::
     
     escalate(CONDITION_1, THRESHOLD_2, CONDITION_2, ..., THRESHOLD_N, CONDITION_N)


  Here are details of the syntax changes.

  * Don't require the threshold for the first condition.
  * Don't allow empty arguments call. The first condition is required.
  * Always execute the first condition.

  This function is experimental. These behaviors may be changed in the future.

* [:doc:`install/cmake`] Added a document about how to build Groonga with CMake.

* [:doc:`install/others`] Added descriptions about how to enable/disable Apache Arrow support when building with GNU Autotools.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added a document about :ref:`select-drilldowns-label-table`.

* [:doc:`contribution/documentation/i18n`] Updated the translation procedure.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that Groonga could return incorrect results when we use :doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_table`
  and it contains a non-idempotent (results can be changed when executed repeatedly) definition.
  
  This was caused by that we normalized a search value multiple times: after the value was input and after the value was tokenized.

  Groonga tokenizes and normalizes the data to be registered using the tokenizer and normalizer set in the index table when adding a record.
  The search value is also tokenized and normalized using the tokenizer and normalizer set in the index table, and then the search value and the index are matched.
  If the search value is the same as the data registered in the index, it will be in the same state as stored in the index because both use the same tokenizer and normalizer.

  However, Groonga had normalized extra only search keywords.

  Built-in normalizers like :doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_auto` did't cause this bug because 
  they are idempotent (results aren't changed if they are executed repeatedly).
  On the other hand, :doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_table` allows the users specify their own normalization definitions, 
  so they can specify non-idempotent (results can be changed when executed repeatedly) definitions.

  If there were non-idempotent definitions in :doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_table`, 
  the indexed data and the search value did not match in some cases because the search value was normalized extra.
  
  In such cases, the data that should hit was not hit or the data that should not hit was hit.

  Here is a example.

  .. code-block::

     table_create ColumnNormalizations TABLE_NO_KEY
     column_create ColumnNormalizations target_column COLUMN_SCALAR ShortText
     column_create ColumnNormalizations normalized COLUMN_SCALAR ShortText

     load --table ColumnNormalizations
     [
     {"target_column": "a", "normalized": "b"},
     {"target_column": "b", "normalized": "c"}
     ]

     table_create Targets TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText
     column_create Targets column_normalizations_target_column COLUMN_INDEX \
       ColumnNormalizations target_column

     table_create Memos TABLE_NO_KEY
     column_create Memos content COLUMN_SCALAR ShortText

     load --table Memos
     [
     {"content":"a"},
     {"content":"c"},
     ]

     table_create \
       Terms \
       TABLE_PAT_KEY \
       ShortText \
       --default_tokenizer 'TokenNgram' \
       --normalizers 'NormalizerTable("normalized", \
                                     "ColumnNormalizations.normalized", \
                                     "target", \
                                     "target_column")'

     column_create Terms memos_content COLUMN_INDEX|WITH_POSITION Memos content

     select Memos --query content:@a
     [[0,1664781132.892326,0.03527212142944336],[[[1],[["_id","UInt32"],["content","ShortText"]],[2,"c"]]]]

  The expected result of ``select Memos --query content:@a`` is ``a``, but Groonga returned ``c`` as a result.
  This was because we normalized the input ``a`` to ``b`` by definitions of ``ColumnNormalizations``, and after that, we normalized the normalized ``b``
  again and it was normalized to ``c``. As a result, the input ``a`` was converted to ``c`` and matched to ``{"content":"c"}`` of the ``Memos`` table.

.. _release-12-0-7:

Release 12.0.7 - 2022-08-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Added a new function ``escalate()``. (experimental)

  The ``escalate()`` function is similar to the existing match escalation ( :doc:`spec/search` ).
  We can use this function for any conditions. (The existing match escalation is just for one full text search by invert index.)

  The ``escalate()`` function is useful when we want to limit the number of results of a search.
  Even if we use ``--limit``, we can limit the number of results of a search. However, ``--limit`` is evaluated after evaluating all conditions in our query.
  The ``escalate()`` function finish the evaluation of conditions at that point when the result set has greater than ``THRESHOLD`` records. In other words, The ``escalate()`` function may reduce the number of evaluating conditions.

  The syntax of the ``escalate()`` function as below::

    escalate(THRESHOLD_1, CONDITION_1,
             THRESHOLD_2, CONDITION_2,
             ...,
             THRESHOLD_N, CONDITION_N)

  ``THRESHOLD_N`` is a positive number such as 0 and 29.
  ``CONDITION_N`` is a string that uses :doc:`reference/grn_expr/script_syntax` such as ``number_column > 29``.

  If the current result set has less than or equal to ``THRESHOLD_1`` records, the corresponding ``CONDITION_1`` is executed.
  Similarly, if the next result set has less than or equal to ``THRESHOLD_2`` records, the corresponding ``CONDITION_2`` is executed.
  If the next result set has greater than ``THRESHOLD_3`` records, the ``escalate()`` function is finished.

  If all ``CONDITION`` s are executed, ``escalate(THRESHOLD_1, CONDITION_1, ..., THRESHOLD_N, CONDITION_N)`` is same as ``CONDITION_1 || ... || CONDITION_N``.

  The ``escalate()`` function can be worked with logical operators such as ``&&`` and ``&!`` ::

    number_column > 10 && escalate(THRESHOLD_1, CONDITION_1,
                                   ...,
                                   THRESHOLD_N, CONDITION_N)
    number_column > 10 &! escalate(THRESHOLD_1, CONDITION_1,
                                   ...,
                                   THRESHOLD_N, CONDITION_N)

  They are same as ``number_column > 10 && (CONDITION_1 || ... || CONDITION_N)`` and ``number_column > 10 &! (CONDITION_1 || ... || CONDITION_N)`` .

  However, these behaviors may be changed because they may not be useful.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.23.1.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Add a document for the ``--n_workers`` option.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug Groonga's response may be slow when we execute the ``request_cancel`` while executing a OR search.

  When the number of results of the OR search is many and a query has many OR conditions, Groonga may response slow with the "request_cancel" command.

.. _release-12-0-6:

Release 12.0.6 - 2022-08-04
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Added new Munin plugins for groonga-delta.

  We can monitoring the following items by plugins for groonga-delta.

    * Whether ``groonga-delta-import`` can import or not ``.grn`` file on local storage.
    * Whether ``groonga-delta-import`` can import or not difference data of MySQL.
    * Whether ``groonga-delta-apply`` can apply imported data or not.
    * The total size of applying data.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/column_copy`] Added support for weight vector.

  We can copy the value of weight vector by ``column_copy`` as below.

         ]
       ]
     ]

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Dropped support for Ubuntu 21.10 (Impish Indri).

  Because Ubuntu 21.10 reached EOL in July 2022.

* [:doc:`/install/debian`] Dropped Debian 10 (buster) support.

  Because Debian 10 reaches EOL in August 2022.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that Groonga may crash when we execute drilldown in a parallel by ``n_workers`` option.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Fixed a bug that the syntax error occurred when we specify a very long expression in ``--filter``.

  Because the max stack size for the expression of ``--filter`` was 100 until now.

.. _release-12-0-5:

Release 12.0.5 - 2022-06-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved a little bit of performance for prefix search by search escalation.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for specifying a reference vector column with weight in ``drilldowns[LABEL]._key``. [GitHub#1366][Patched by naoa]

  If we specified a reference vector column with weight in drilldown's key, Groonga had returned incorrect results until now.

  For example, the following tag search had returned incorrect results until now.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for doing drilldown with a reference vector with weight even if we use ``query`` or ``filter``, or ``post_filter``. [GitHub#1367][Patched by naoa]

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-12-0-4:

Release 12.0.4 - 2022-06-06
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Added support for Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish).

* We don't provide `groonga-benchmark`.

  Because nobody will not use it and we can't maintain it.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/status`] Added a new item ``memory_map_size``.

  We can get the total memory map size in bytes of Groonga with ``status`` command.

  .. code-block::

      status
      [
        [
          0,
          1654237168.304533,
          0.0001480579376220703
        ],
        {
          (omitted)
          "memory_map_size": 70098944
        }
      ]

  For example, in Windows, if Groonga uses up physical memory and swap area, Groonga can't more mapping memory than that.
  Therefore, we can control properly memory map size by monitoring this value even if the environment does have not enough memory.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug Groonga's response may be slow when we execute ``request_cancel`` while executing a search.

  Especially, when the number of records of the search target is many, Groonga's response may be very slow.

* Fixed a bug that string list can't be casted to int32 vector.

  For example, the following cast had failed.

  * ["10", "100"] -> [10, 100]

  This bug only occurs when we specify ``apache-arrow`` into ``input_type`` as the argument of ``load``.
  This bug occurs in Groonga 12.0.2 or later.

* Fixed a bug that Groonga Munin Plugins do not work on AlmaLinux 8 and CentOS 7.

.. _release-12-0-3:

Release 12.0.3 - 2022-04-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_count`] Improved memory usage while ``logical_count`` executed.

  Up to now, Groonga had been keeping objects(objects are tables and columns and indexes, and so on) and temporary tables that were allocated while ``logical_count`` executed until the execution of ``logical_count`` finished.

  Groonga reduces reference immediately after processing a shard by this feature.
  Therefore, Groonga can release memory while ``logical_count`` executed.
  The usage of memory of Groonga may reduce because of these reasons.

  This improvement is only valid for the reference count mode.
  We can valid the reference count mode by setting ``GRN_ENABLE_REFERENCE_COUNT=yes``.

  In addition, Groonga releases temporary tables dynamically while ``logical_count`` is executed by this feature.
  Therefore, the usage of memory of Groonga reduces.
  This improvement is valid even if we don't set the reference count mode.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`] Added support for ``MISSING_IGNORE/MISSING_NIL``.

  If columns had ``MISSING_IGNORE/MISSING_NIL``, the dump of these columns had failed until now.
  ``dump`` command supports these columns since this release.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/snippet`],[:doc:`reference/functions/snippet_html`] Added support for text vector as input. [groonga-dev,04956][Reported by shinonon]

  For example, we can extract snippets of target text around search keywords against vector in JSON data as below.

  .. code-block::

     table_create Entries TABLE_NO_KEY
     column_create Entries title COLUMN_SCALAR ShortText
     column_create Entries contents COLUMN_VECTOR ShortText

     table_create Tokens TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText   --default_tokenizer TokenNgram   --normalizer NormalizerNFKC130
     column_create Tokens entries_title COLUMN_INDEX|WITH_POSITION Entries title

     load --table Entries
     [
     {
       "title": "Groonga and MySQL",
       "contents": [
         "Groonga is a full text search engine",
         "MySQL is a RDBMS",
         "Mroonga is a MySQL storage engine based on Groonga"
       ]
     }
     ]

     select Entries\
       --output_columns 'snippet_html(contents), contents'\
       --match_columns 'title'\
       --query Groonga
     [
       [
         0,
         0.0,
         0.0
       ],
       [
         [
           [
             1
           ],
           [
             [
               "snippet_html",
               null
             ],
             [
               "contents",
               "ShortText"
             ]
           ],
           [
             [
               "<span class=\"keyword\">Groonga</span> is a full text search engine",
               "Mroonga is a MySQL storage engine based on <span class=\"keyword\">Groonga</span>"
             ],
             [
               "Groonga is a full text search engine",
               "MySQL is a RDBMS",
               "Mroonga is a MySQL storage engine based on Groonga"
             ]
           ]
         ]
       ]
     ]

  Until now, if we specified ``snippet*`` like ``--output_columns 'snippet_html(contents[1])``,
  we could extract snippets of target text around search keywords against the vector as below.
  However, we didn't know which we should output elements. Because we didn't know which element was hit on search.

  .. code-block::

     select Entries\
       --output_columns 'snippet_html(contents[0]), contents'\
       --match_columns 'title'\

* [``vector_join``] Added a new function ``vector_join()``.[groonga-dev,04956][Reported by shinonon]

  This function can concatenate each elements.
  We can specify delimiter in the second argument in this function.

  For example, we could execute ``snippet()`` and ``snippet_html()`` against vector that concatenate each elements as below.

* [:doc:`/reference/indexing`] Ignore too large a token like online index construction. [GitHub:pgroonga/pgroonga#209][Reported by Zhanzhao (Deo) Liang]

  Groonga doesn't occur error, but Groonga ignores too large a token when we execute static index construction.
  However, Groonga output warning in this case.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that we may be not able to add a key to a table of patricia trie.

  This bug occurs in the following conditon.

  * If a table of patricia trie already has a key.
  * If the additional key is 4096 bytes.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-12-0-2:

Release 12.0.2 - 2022-03-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_range_filter`] Added support for reducing reference immediately after processing a shard.

  Groonga had reduced reference all shards when the finish of ``logical_range_filter`` until now.
  Groonga reduces reference immediately after processing a shard by this feature.
  The usage of memory may reduce while ``logical_range_filter`` executes by this feature.  

  This feature is only valid for the reference count mode.
  We can valid the reference count mode by setting ``GRN_ENABLE_REFERENCE_COUNT=yes``.

  Normally, Groonga keep objects(tables and column and index, and so on) that Groonga opened even once on memory.
  However, if we open many objects, Groonga uses much memory.
  In the reference count mode release objects that are not referenced anywhere from memory.
  The usage of memory of Groonga may reduce by this.

* We increased the stability of the feature of recovering on crashes.

  This feature is experimental and it is disabled by default.
  Therefore, the following improvements are no influence on ordinary users.

  * We fixed a bug that the index was broken when Groonga crashed.
  * We fixed a bug that might remain a lock.
  * We fixed a bug that Groonga crashed while it was recovering the crash.

* Improved performance for mmap if anonymous mmap available.[GitHub:MariaDB/server#1999][Suggested by David CARLIER]

  The performance of Groonga is improved a bit by this improvement.

* [:doc:`/reference/indexing`] Added support for the static index construction against the following types of columns.

  * The non-reference vector column with weight
  * The reference vector column with weight
  * The reference scalar column

  These columns have not supported the static index construction until now.
  Therefore, the time of making the index has longed even if we set the index against these columns after we loaded data into them.
  By this improvement, the time of making the index is short in this case.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/column_create`] Added new flags ``MISSING_*`` and ``INVALID_*``.

  We added the following new flags for ``column_create``.

    * ``MISSING_ADD``
    * ``MISSING_IGNORE``
    * ``MISSING_NIL``

    * ``INVALID_ERROR``
    * ``INVALID_WARN``
    * ``INVALID_IGNORE``

  Normally, if the data column is a reference data column and the nonexistent key is specified, a new record for the nonexistent key is newly created automatically.

  The behavior that Groonga adds the key automatically into the column of reference destination is useful in the search like tag search.
  Because Groonga adds data automatically when we load data.

  However, this behavior is inconvenient if we need the other data except for the key.
  Because a record that only has the key exists.

  We can change this behavior by using flags that are added in this release.

    * ``MISSING_ADD``: This is the default value. This is the same behavior as the current.

      If the data column is a reference data column and the nonexistent key is specified, a new record for the nonexistent key is newly created automatically.

    * ``MISSING_IGNORE``:

      If the data column is a reference data column and the nonexistent key is specified, the nonexistent key is ignored.
      If the reference data column is a scalar column, the value is ``GRN_ID_NIL``.
      If the reference data column is a vector column, the element is just ignored as below ::

        ["existent1", "nonexistent", "existent2"] ->
        ["existent1" "existent2"]

    * ``MISSING_NIL``:

      If the data column is a reference data column and the nonexistent key is specified, the nonexistent key in a scalar column and a vector column is treated as ``GRN_ID_NIL`` ::

        ["existent1", "nonexistent", "existent2"] ->
        ["existent1", "" (GRN_ID_NIL), "existent2"]


    * ``INVALID_ERROR``: This is the default value. This is the same behavior as the current except an error response of a vector column case.

      If we set the invalid value (e.g.: ``XXX`` for ``UInt8`` scalar column), the set operation is treated as an error.
      If the data column is a scalar column, ``load`` reports an error in log and response.
      If the data column is a vector column, ``load`` reports an error in log but doesn't report an error in response.
      This is an incompatible change.

    * ``INVALID_WARN``:

      If we set the invalid value (e.g.: ``XXX`` for ``UInt8`` scalar column), a warning message is logged and the set operation is ignored.
      If the target data column is a reference vector data column, ``MISSING_IGNORE`` and ``MISSING_NIL`` are used to determine the behavior.

    * ``INVALID_IGNORE``:

      If we set the invalid value (e.g.: ``XXX`` for ``UInt8`` scalar column), the set operation is ignored.
      If the target data column is a reference vector data column, ``MISSING_IGNORE`` and ``MISSING_NIL`` are used to determine the behavior.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`][:doc:`/reference/commands/column_list`] Added support for ``MISSING_*`` and ``INVALID_*`` flags.

  These commands doesn't show ``MISSING_ADD`` and ``INVALID_ERROR`` flags to keep backward compatibility.
  Because these flags show the default behavior.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/schema`] Added support for ``MISSING_*`` and ``INVALID_*`` flags.

  ``MISSING_AND`` and ``INVALID_ERROR`` flags aren't shown in ``flags`` to keep backward compatibility.
  However, new ``missing`` and ``invalid`` keys are added to each column.

* We provided the package of Amazon Linux 2.

* [Windows] Dropped support for building with Visual Studio 2017.

  Because we could not use windows-2016 image on GitHub Actions.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-12-0-1:

Release 12.0.1 - 2022-02-28
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/query_expand`] Added a support for synonym group.

  Until now, We had to each defined a keyword and synonyms of the keyword as below when we use the synonym search.

  .. code-block::

     table_create Thesaurus TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText --normalizer NormalizerAuto
     # [[0, 1337566253.89858, 0.000355720520019531], true]
     column_create Thesaurus synonym COLUMN_VECTOR ShortText
     # [[0, 1337566253.89858, 0.000355720520019531], true]
     load --table Thesaurus
     [
     {"_key": "mroonga", "synonym": ["mroonga", "tritonn", "groonga mysql"]},
     {"_key": "groonga", "synonym": ["groonga", "senna"]}
     ]

  In the above case, if we search ``mroonga``, Groonga search ``mroonga OR tritonn OR "groonga mysql"`` as we intended.
  However, if we search ``tritonn``, Groonga search only ``tritonn``.
  If we want to search ``tritonn OR mroonga OR "groonga mysql"`` even if we search ``tritonn``, we need had added a definition as below.

  .. code-block::

     load --table Thesaurus
     [
     {"_key": "tritonn", "synonym": ["tritonn", "mroonga", "groonga mysql"]},
     ]

  In many cases, if we expand ``mroonga`` to ``mroonga OR tritonn OR "groonga mysql"``, we feel we want to expand ``tritonn`` and ``"groonga mysql"`` to ``mroonga OR tritonn OR "groonga mysql"``.
  However, until now, we had needed additional definitions in such a case.
  Therefore, if target keywords for synonyms are many, we are troublesome to define synonyms.
  Because we need to define many similar definitions.

  In addition, when we remove synonyms, we are troublesome because we need to execute remove against many records.

  We can make a group by deciding on a representative synonym record since this release.
  For example, the all following keywords are the "mroonga" group.

  .. code-block::

     load --table Synonyms
     [
       {"_key": "mroonga": "representative": "mroonga"}
     ]

     load --table Synonyms
     [
       {"_key": "tritonn": "representative": "mroonga"},
       {"_key": "groonga mysql": "representative": "mroonga"}
     ]

  In this case, ``mroonga`` is expanded to ``mroonga OR tritonn OR "groonga mysql"``.
  In addition, ``tritonn`` and ``"groonga mysql"`` are also expanded to ``mroonga OR tritonn OR "groonga mysql"``.

  When we want to remove synonyms, we execute just remove against a target record.
  For example, if we want to remove ``"groonga mysql"`` from synonyms, we just remove ``{"_key": "groonga mysql": "representative": "mroonga"}``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/query_expand`] Added a support for text vector and index.

  We can use text vector in a synonym group as below.

  .. code-block::

    table_create SynonymGroups TABLE_NO_KEY
    [[0,0.0,0.0],true]
    column_create SynonymGroups synonyms COLUMN_VECTOR ShortText
    [[0,0.0,0.0],true]
    table_create Synonyms TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText
    [[0,0.0,0.0],true]
    column_create Synonyms group COLUMN_INDEX SynonymGroups synonyms
    [[0,0.0,0.0],true]
    load --table SynonymGroups
    [
    ["synonyms"],
    [["rroonga", "Ruby groonga"]],
    [["groonga", "rroonga", "mroonga"]]
    ]
    [[0,0.0,0.0],2]
    query_expand Synonyms.group "rroonga"
    [
      [
        0,
        0.0,
        0.0
      ],
      "((rroonga) OR (Ruby groonga) OR (groonga) OR (rroonga) OR (mroonga))"
    ]

* Added support for disabling a backtrace by the environment variable.

  We can disable output a backtrace by using ``GRN_BACK_TRACE_ENABLE``.
  If we set ``GRN_BACK_TRACE_ENABLE=no``, Groonga doesn't output a backtrace.

  Groonga output backtrace to a stack area. Therefore, Groonga may crash because Groonga uses up stack area depending on the OS.
  In such cases, we can avoid crashes by using ``GRN_BACK_TRACE_ENABLE=no``.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved performance for ``--slices``.

* [Windows] Added support for Visual Studio 2022.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for specifing max intervals for each elements in near search.

  For example, we can specify max intervals for each phrase in a near phrase search.
  We make documentation for this feature in the future. Therefore, we will make more details later.   

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-server-http`] We could use ``groonga-server-http`` even if Groonga of RPM packages.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [Windows] Fixed a crash bug when Groonga output backtrace.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-12-0-0:

Release 12.0.0 - 2022-02-09
---------------------------

This is a major version up!
But It keeps backward compatibility. We can upgrade to 12.0.0 without rebuilding database.

First of all, we introduce the Summary of changes from Groonga 11.0.0 to 11.1.3.
Then, we introduce the main changes in 12.0.0.

Summary of changes from Groonga 11.0.0 to 11.1.3
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

New Features and Improvements
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

* [:doc:`reference/functions/snippet`] Added support for using the keyword of 32 or more.

  We could not specify the keyword of 32 or more with snippet until now.
  However, we can specify the keyword of 32 or more by this improvement.

  We don't specify the keyword of 32 or more with snippet in normal use.
  However, if the keyword increments automatically by using such as ``query_expand``, the number of target keywords may be 32 or more.

  In this case, Groonga occurs an error until now. However, Groonga doesn't occur an error by this improvement.

  See :ref:`release 11.1.3 <release-11-1-3>` for details.

* [:doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_nfkc130`] Added a new option ``remove_symbol``.

  This option removes symbols (e.g. #, !, “, &, %, …) from the string that the target of normalizing.
  For example, this option useful when we prevent orthographical variants such as a title of song and name of artist, and a name of store.

  See :ref:`release 11.1.3 <release-11-1-3>` for details.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added support for ISO 8601 time format.

  ISO 8601 format is the format generally.
  Therefore ``load`` becomes easy to use by Groonga support the more standard format.

  See :ref:`release 11.1.0 <release-11-1-0>` for details.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/snippet`] Added a new option ``delimiter_regexp`` for detecting snippet delimiter with regular expression.

  This feature is useful in that we want to show by the sentence the result of the search.

  :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` extracts text around search keywords.
  We call the text that is extracted by :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` snippet.

  Normally, :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` () returns the text of 200 bytes around search keywords.
  However, :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` () gives no thought to a delimiter of sentences.
  The snippet may be composed of multi sentences.

  ``delimiter_regexp`` option is useful if we want to only extract the text of the same sentence as search keywords.
  For example, we can use ``\.\s*`` to extract only text in the target sentence.
  Note that you need to escape ``\`` in string.

  See :ref:`release 11.0.9 <release-11-0-9>` for details.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/cache_limit`] Groonga remove query cache when we execute ``cache_limit 0``.

  Groonga stores query cache to internally table.
  The maximum total size of keys of this table is 4GiB. Because this table is hash table.
  Therefore, If we execute many huge queries, Groonga may be unable to store query cache, because the maximum total size of keys may be over 4GiB.
  In such cases, We can clear the table for query cache by using ``cache_limit 0``, and Groonga can store query cache 

  We needed to restart Groonga to resolve this problem until now.
  However, We can resolve this problem if we just execute ``cache_limit 0`` by this improvement.

  See :ref:`release 11.0.6 <release-11-0-6>` for details.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`] Added support for optimizing the order of evaluation of a conditional expression.

  We can use the optimization of  the order of evaluation of a conditional expression in ``between()`` by setting ``GRN_EXPR_OPTIMIZE=yes``.
  This optimization is effective with respect if ``between()`` narrow down records enough or ``between()`` can't narrow down few records.

* [:doc:`reference/log`] Added support for outputting to stdout and stderr.

  This feature is useful when we execute Groonga on Docker.
  Docker has the feature that records stdout and stderr in standard.
  Therefore, we don't need to login into the environment of Docker to get Groonga's log.

  See :ref:`release 11.0.4 <release-11-0-4>` for details.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query`] Added support for ignoring ``TokenFilterStem`` and ``TokenFilterStopWord`` by the query.

  We are able to search without ``TokenFilterStem`` and ``TokenFilterStopWord`` in only a specific query.

  This feature is useful when we want to search for the same words exactly as a search keyword.
  Normally, Groonga gets better results with enable stemming and stopwords excepting.
  However, if we want to search words the same as a keyword of search exactly, These features are needless.

  Until now, If we want to search words the same as a keyword of search exactly,
  We needed to make the index of the exclusive use.
  By this improvement, we can search words the same as a keyword of search exactly
  without making the index of the exclusive use.

  See :ref:`release 11.0.3 <release-11-0-3>` for details.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/string_slice`] Added a new function ``string_slice()``.

  ``string_slice()`` extracts a substring of a string of search results by position or regular expression.
  This function is useful if we want to edit search results.

  For example, this feature is useful in that we exclude tags from search results.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query_parallel_or`] Added a new function for processing queries in parallel.

  ``query_parallel_or`` is similar to query but ``query_parallel_or`` processes query that has multiple OR conditions in parallel.
  We can increase in speed of the execution of many OR conditions by using this function.

  However, ``query_parallel_or`` alone uses multiple CPUs.
  Therefore, queries that are executing at the same time as the query that executes ``query_parallel_or`` may be slow.

* [:doc:`/reference/token_filters`] Added support for multiple token filters with options.

  We can use multiple token filters with options as the following example.

  .. code-block::

     --token_filters 'TokenFilterStopWord("column", "ignore"), TokenFilterNFKC130("unify_kana", true)'

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for ``--post_filter`` and ``--slices[].post_filter``.

  We can filter again after we execute ``--filter`` by using ``--post_filter`` and ``--slices[].post_filter``.
  The difference between ``--post_filter`` and ``--slices[].post_filter`` is response format.

  The response format of ``--post_filter`` same as the response of ``--filter``.
  The response format of ``--slices[].post_filter`` show the result of before and after ``--slices[].post_filter`` executed.

  Note that if we use ``--slices[].post_filter``, the format of the response is different from the normal ``select`` 's response.

Fixes
"""""

* Fixed a bug that the version up of Groonga failed Because the version up of arrow-libs on which Groonga depends.

  However, if arrow-libs update a major version, this problem reproduces.
  In this case, we will handle that by rebuilding the Groonga package.

  This bug only occurs AlmaLinux 8 and CentOS 7.

* [Windows] Fixed a resource leak when Groonga fail open a new file caused by out of memory.

* Fixed a bug that Groonga may not have returned a result of a search query if we sent many search queries when tokenizer, normalizer, or token_filters that support options were used.

* Fixed a bug that there is possible that index is corrupt when Groonga executes many additions, delete, and update information in it.

  This bug occurs when we only execute many delete information from index.
  However, it doesn’t occur when we only execute many additions information into index.

  See :ref:`release 11.0.0 <release-11-0-0>` for details.

The main changes in 12.0.0 are as follows.

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/functions/sub_filter`] Added a new option ``pre_filter_threshold``.

  We can change the value of ``GRN_SUB_FILTER_PRE_FILTER_THRESHOLD`` by this option.
  If the number of records is less than ``GRN_SUB_FILTER_PRE_FILTER_THRESHOLD`` when Groonga executes ``sub_filter``, Groonga execute ``sub_filter`` against records that have been already narrowed down.  

  We can use -1 to always use this optimization.

* [index_column_have_source_record] Added a new function ``index_column_have_source_record()``.

  We can confirm whether a token that is existing in the index is included in any of the records that are registered in Groonga or not.

  Groonga does not remove a token even if the token become never used from records in Groonga by updating records.
  Therefore, for example, when we use the feature of autocomplete, Groonga may return a token that is not included in any of the records as candidates for search words.
  However, we can become that we don't return the needless token by using this function.

  Because this function can detect a token that is not included in any of the records.

* [:doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_nfkc130`] Added a new option ``strip``

  This option removes spaces from the start and the end as below.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added new arguments ``drilldown_max_n_target_records`` and ``drilldown[${LABEL}].max_n_target_records``.

  We can specify the max number of records of the drilldown target table (filtered result) to use drilldown.
  If the number of filtered result is larger than the specified value, some records in filtered result aren't used for drilldown.
  The default value of this arguments are ``-1``.
  If these arguments are set ``-1``, Groonga uses all records for drilldown.

  This argument is useful when filtered result may be very large.
  Because a drilldown against large filtered result may be slow.
  We can limit the max number of records to be used for drilldown by this feature.

  Here is an example to limit the max number of records to be used for drilldown.
  The last 2 records, ``{\"_id\": 4, \"tag\": \"Senna\"}`` and ``{\"_id\": 5, \"tag\": \"Senna\"}``, aren't used.

* [:doc:`/install/almalinux`] Added support for AlmaLinux 8 on ARM64.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.21.5.

* [Documentation] Fixed a typo in :doc:`reference/commands/ruby_eval`. [GitHub#1317][Pathched by wi24rd]

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Dropped Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo) support.

  * Because Ubuntu 21.04 reached EOL January 20, 2022.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Fixed a crash bug when we load data with specifying a nonexistent column.

  This bug only occurs when we specify ``apache-arrow`` into ``input_type`` as the argument of ``load``.

* Fixed a bug that the version up of Groonga failed Because the version up of arrow-libs on which Groonga depends. [groonga-talk,540][Reported by Josep Sanz][Gitter,61eaaa306d9ba23328d23ce1][Reported by shibanao4870][GitHub#1316][Reported by Keitaro YOSHIMURA]

  However, if arrow-libs update a major version, this problem reproduces.
  In this case, we will handle that by rebuilding the Groonga package.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-11-1-1:

Release 11.1.1 - 2021-12-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for near phrase product search.

  This feature is a shortcut of ``'*NP"..." OR *NP"..." OR ...'``.
  For example, we can use ``*NPP`` instead of the expression that execute mulitiple
  ``*NP`` with ``query`` as below.

  .. code-block::

     query ("title * 10 || content",
            "*NP"a 1 x" OR
             *NP"a 1 y" OR
             *NP"a 1 z" OR
             *NP"a 2 x" OR
             *NP"a 2 y" OR
             *NP"a 2 z" OR
             *NP"a 3 x" OR
             *NP"a 3 y" OR
             *NP"a 3 z" OR
             *NP"b 1 x" OR
             *NP"b 1 y" OR
             *NP"b 1 z" OR
             *NP"b 2 x" OR
             *NP"b 2 y" OR
             *NP"b 2 z" OR
             *NP"b 3 x" OR
             *NP"b 3 y" OR
             *NP"b 3 z"")

  We can be written as ``*NPP"(a b) (1 2 3) (x y z)"`` the above expression by this feature.
  In addition, ``*NPP"(a b) (1 2 3) (x y z)"`` is faster than ``'*NP"..." OR *NP"..." OR ...'``.

  .. code-block::

     query ("title * 10 || content",
            "*NPP"(a b) (1 2 3) (x y z)"")

  We implements this feature for improving performance near phrase search
  like ``'*NP"..." OR *NP"..." OR ...'``.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for order near phrase product search.

  This feature is a shortcut of ``'*ONP"..." OR *ONP"..." OR ...'``.
  For example, we can use ``*ONPP`` instead of the expression that execute multiple
  ``*ONP`` with ``query`` as below.

  .. code-block::

     query ("title * 10 || content",
            "*ONP"a 1 x" OR
             *ONP"a 1 y" OR
             *ONP"a 1 z" OR
             *ONP"a 2 x" OR
             *ONP"a 2 y" OR
             *ONP"a 2 z" OR
             *ONP"a 3 x" OR
             *ONP"a 3 y" OR
             *ONP"a 3 z" OR
             *ONP"b 1 x" OR
             *ONP"b 1 y" OR
             *ONP"b 1 z" OR
             *ONP"b 2 x" OR
             *ONP"b 2 y" OR
             *ONP"b 2 z" OR
             *ONP"b 3 x" OR
             *ONP"b 3 y" OR
             *ONP"b 3 z"")

  We can be written as ``*ONPP"(a b) (1 2 3) (x y z)"`` the above expression by this feature.
  In addition, ``*ONPP"(a b) (1 2 3) (x y z)"`` is faster than ``'*ONP"..." OR *ONP"..." OR ...'``.

  .. code-block::

     query ("title * 10 || content",
            "*ONPP"(a b) (1 2 3) (x y z)"")

  We implements this feature for improving performance near phrase search
  like ``'*ONP"..." OR *ONP"..." OR ...'``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/request_cancel`] Groonga became easily detects ``request_cancel`` while executing a search.

  Because we added more checks of return code to detect ``request_cancel``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/thread_dump`] Added a new command ``thread_dump``

  Currently, this command works only on Windows.

  We can put a backtrace of all threads into a log as logs of NOTICE level
  at the time of running this command.

  This feature is useful when we solve a problem such as Groonga doesn't return a response.

* [:doc:`/install/centos`] Dropped support for CentOS 8.

  Because CentOS 8 will reach EOL at 2021-12-31.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that we can't remove a index column with invalid parameter. [GitHub#1301][Patched by Takashi Hashida]

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-11-1-0:

Release 11.1.0 - 2021-11-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added support for ISO 8601 time format.[GitHub#1228][Patched by Takashi Hashida]

  ``load`` support the following format by this modification.

    * YYYY-MM-ddThh:mm:ss.sZ
    * YYYY-MM-ddThh:mm:ss.s+10:00
    * YYYY-MM-ddThh:mm:ss.s-10:00

  We can also use ``t`` and ``z`` characters instead of ``T`` and ``Z`` in this syntax.
  We can also use ``/`` character instead of ``-`` in this syntax. However, note that this is not an ISO 8601 format.
  This format is present for compatibility.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [The browser based administration tool] Fixed a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list. [GitHub#1186][Patched by Takashi Hashida]

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-11-0-9:

Release 11.0.9 - 2021-11-04
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/functions/snippet`] Added a new option ``delimiter_regexp`` for detecting snippet delimiter with regular expression.

  :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` extracts text around search keywords.
  We call the text that is extracted by :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` snippet.

  Normally, :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` () returns the text of 200 bytes around search keywords.
  However, :doc:`reference/functions/snippet` () gives no thought to a delimiter of sentences.
  The snippet may be composed of multi sentences.

  ``delimiter_regexp`` option is useful if we want to only extract the text of the same sentence as search keywords.
  For example, we can use ``\.\s*`` to extract only text in the target sentence as below.
  Note that you need to escape ``\`` in string.

         ]
       ]

* [:doc:`reference/window_functions/window_rank`] Added a new function ``window_rank()``.

  * We can calculate a rank that includes a gap of each record.
    Normally, the rank isn’t incremented when multiple records that are the same order.
    For example, if values of sort keys are 100, 100, 200 then the ranks of them
    are 1, 1, 3.
    The rank of the last record is 3 not 2 because there are two 1 rank records.

    This is similar to :doc:`reference/window_functions/window_record_number`.
    However, :doc:`reference/window_functions/window_record_number` gives no thought to gap.

  For example, if we load values of ``UInt32`` into a table that a key type is ``UInt64``, Groonga cast the values to ``UInt64`` automatically when we search the table with ``in_values()``. However, ``in_values(_key, 10)`` doesn't work with ``UInt64`` key table. Because 10 is parsed as ``Int32``.

  .. code-block::

     table_create Numbers TABLE_HASH_KEY UInt64
     load --table Numbers
     [
     {"_key": 100},
     {"_key": 200},
     {"_key": 300}
     ]

     select Numbers   --output_columns _key   --filter 'in_values(_key, 200, 100)'   --sortby _id
     [[0,0.0,0.0],[[[2],[["_key","UInt64"]],[100],[200]]]]

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.21.3.

* [:doc:`/install/almalinux`] Added support for AlmaLinux 8.

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Added support for Ubuntu 21.10 (Impish Indri).

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that Groonga doesn't return a response when an error occurred
  in command (e.g. sytax error in filter).

  * This bug only occurs when we use ``--output_type apache-arrow``.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* [The browser based administration tool] Currently, Groonga has a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-11-0-7:

Release 11.0.7 - 2021-09-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added support for casting a string like as "[int, int,...]" to a vector of integer like as [int, int,...].

  For example, Groonga handle as a vector of integer like as [1, -2] even if we load vector of string like as "[1, -2]" as below.

    .. code-block::

       table_create Data TABLE_NO_KEY
       column_create Data numbers COLUMN_VECTOR Int16
       table_create Numbers TABLE_PAT_KEY Int16
       column_create Numbers data_numbers COLUMN_INDEX Data numbers

       load --table Data
       [
       {"numbers": "[1, -2]"},
       {"numbers": "[-3, 4]"}
       ]

       dump   --dump_plugins no   --dump_schema no
       load --table Data
       [
       ["_id","numbers"],
       [1,[1,-2]],
       [2,[-3,4]]
       ]

       column_create Numbers data_numbers COLUMN_INDEX Data numbers
       select Data --filter 'numbers @ -2'
       [[0,0.0,0.0],[[[1],[["_id","UInt32"],["numbers","Int16"]],[1,[1,-2]]]]]

  This feature supports for the floowings types.

    * Int8
    * UInt8
    * Int16
    * UInt16
    * Int32
    * UInt32
    * Int64
    * UInt64

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added support for loading a JSON array expressed as a text string as a vector of string.

  For example, Groonga handle as a vector that has two elements like as ["hello", "world"] if we load JSON array expressed as a text string like as "[\"hello\", \"world\"]" as below.

  .. code-block::

     table_create Data TABLE_NO_KEY
     [[0,0.0,0.0],true]

     [[0,0.0,0.0],true]
     load --table Data
     [
     {"strings": "[\"Hello\", \"World\"]"},

     [2,["Good-bye","World"]]
     ]

     column_create Terms data_strings COLUMN_INDEX Data strings
     select Data --filter 'strings @ "bye"'
     [
       [
         0,
         0.0,
         0.0
       ],
       [
         [
           [
             1
           ],
           [
             [
               "_id",
               "UInt32"
             ],
             [
               "strings",
               "ShortText"
             ]
           ],
           [
             2,
             [
               "Good-bye",
               "World"
             ]
           ]
         ]
       ]
     ]

  In before version, Groonga handled as a vector that had one element like as ["[\"hello\", \"world\"]"] if we loaded JSON array expressed as a text string like as "[\"hello\", \"world\"]".

* [Documentation] Added a documentation about the following items.

  * [:doc:`reference/commands/column_create`] Added a documentation about ``WEIGHT_FLOAT32`` flag.

  * [:doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_nfkc121`] Added a documentation about ``NormalizerNFKC121``.

  * [:doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_nfkc130`] Added a documentation about ``NormalizerNFKC130``.

  * [:doc:`reference/normalizers/normalizer_table`] Added a documentation about ``NormalizerTable``.

* Updated to 3.0.0 that the version of Apache Arrow that Groonga requires. [GitHub#1265][Patched by Takashi Hashida]

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a memory leak when we created a table with a tokenizer with invalid option.

* Fixed a bug that may not add a new entry in Hash table.

  This bug only occurs in Groonga 11.0.6, and it may occur if we quite a lot of add and delete data.
  If this bug occurs in your environment, you can resolve this problem by executing the following steps.

  1. We upgrade Groonga to 11.0.7 or later from 11.0.6.
  2. We make a new table that has the same schema as the original table.
  3. We copy data to the new table from the original table.

* [Windows] Fixed a resource leak when Groonga fail open a new file caused by out of memory.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* [The browser based administration tool] Currently, Groonga has a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* Groonga may not return records that should match caused by ``GRN_II_CURSOR_SET_MIN_ENABLE``.

.. _release-11-0-6:

Release 11.0.6 - 2021-08-29
---------------------------

  .. warning::

     Groonga 11.0.6 has had a bug that may not add a new entry in Hash table.

     We fixed this bug on Groonga 11.0.7. This bug only occurs in Groonga 11.0.6.
     Therefore, if you were using Groonga 11.0.6, we highly recommended that
     you use Groonga 11.0.7 or later.

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Added support for recovering on crash. (experimental)

  This is a experimental feature. Currently, this feature is still not stable.

  If Groonga crashes, it recovers the database automatically when it opens a database for the first time since the crash. However, This feature can't recover the database automatically in all crash cases.
  We need to recover the database manually depending on timing even if this feature enables.

  Groonga execute WAL (write ahead log) when this feature is enable.
  We can dump WAL by the following tools, but currently, users doesn't need to use them.

    * [:doc:`reference/executables/grndb`] ``dump-wal`` command.
    * ``dump-wal.rb`` scritp.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/cache_limit`] Groonga remove cache when we execute ``cache_limit 0``. [GitHub#1224][Reported by higchi]

  Groonga stores query cache to internally table.
  The maximum total size of keys of this table is 4GiB. Because this table is hash table.
  Therefore, If we execute many huge queries, Groonga may be unable to store query cache, because the maximum total size of keys may be over 4GiB.
  In such cases, We can clear the table for query cache by using ``cache_limit 0``, and Groonga can store query cache 

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that Groonga doesn't clear lock when some threads open the same object around the same time.

  If some threads open the same object around the same time, threads except for a thread that executes the opening object at first are waiting for opening the target object.
  At this time, threads that wait for an opening object take locks, but these locks are not released.
  Therefore, these locks remain until Groonga's process is restarted in the above case, and a new thread can't also open the object all the time until Groonga's process is restarted.

  However, this bug rarely happens. Because a time of a thread open the object is a very short time. 

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query_parallel_or`] Fixed a bug that result may be different from the ``query()``.

  For example, If we used ``query("tags || tags2", "beginner man")``, the following record was a match, but if we used ``query_parallel_or("tags || tags2", "beginner man")``, the following record wasn't a match until now.

  * ``{"_key": "Bob",   "comment": "Hey!",       "tags": ["expert", "man"], "tags2": ["beginner"]}``

  Even if we use ``query_parallel_or("tags || tags2", "beginner man")``, the above record is match by this modification.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* [The browser based administration tool] Currently, Groonga has a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list.

.. _release-11-0-5:

Release 11.0.5 - 2021-07-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/normalizers`] Added support for multiple normalizers.

  We can specify multiple normalizers by ``--notmalizers`` option when we create a table since this release.
  If we can also specify them by  ``--normalizer`` existing option because of compatibility.

  We added ``NormalizerTable`` for customizing a normalizer in Groonga 11.0.4.
  We can more flexibly behavior of the normalizer by combining ``NormalizerTable`` with existing normalizer.

  For example, this feature is useful in the following case.

    * Search for a telephone number. However, we import data handwritten by OCR.
      If data is handwritten, OCR may misunderstand a number and string(e.g. 5 and S).

  The details are as follows.

  .. code-block::

     table_create Normalizations TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText
     column_create Normalizations normalized COLUMN_SCALAR ShortText

     load --table Tels
     [
     {"tel": "03-4S-1234"}
     {"tel": "03-45-9876"}
     ]

     select --table Tels \
       --filter 'tel @ "03-45-1234"'
     [
       [
         0,

           ],
           [
             [
               "_id",
               "UInt32"
             ],
             [
               "tel",
               "ShortText"

           ]
         ]
       ]
     ]

  Existing normalizers can't meet in such case, but we can meet it by combining ``NormalizerTable`` with existing normalizer since this release.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query_parallel_or`][:doc:`reference/functions/query`] Added support for customizing thresholds for sequential search.

  We can customize thresholds in each queries whether to use sequential search by the following options.

    * ``{"max_n_enough_filtered_records": xx}``

      ``max_n_enough_filtered_records`` specify the number of records.
      ``query`` or ``query_parallel_or`` use sequential search when they seems to narrow down until under this number.

    * ``{"enough_filtered_ratio": x.x}``

      ``enough_filtered_ratio`` specify percentage of total.
      ``query`` or ``query_parallel_or`` use sequential search when they seems to narrow down until under this percentage.
      For example, if we specify ``{"enough_filtered_ratio": 0.5}``, ``query`` or ``query_parallel_or`` use sequential search when they seems to narrow down until half of the whole.

  The details are as follows.

       select \
         --table Products \
         --filter 'query("name", "r name:Ruby", {"max_n_enough_filtered_records": 10})'

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`][:doc:`/reference/functions/in_values`] Added support for customizing thresholds for sequential search.

  [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`] and [:doc:`/reference/functions/in_values`] have a feature that they switch to sequential search when the target of search records is narrowed down enough.

  The value of ``GRN_IN_VALUES_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO`` / ``GRN_BETWEEN_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO`` is used as threshold whether Groonga execute sequential search or search with indexes in such a case.

  This behavior is customized by only the following environment variable until now.

  ``in_values()``::

    # Don't use auto sequential search
    GRN_IN_VALUES_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO=-1
    # Set threshold to 0.02
    GRN_IN_VALUES_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO=0.02

  ``between()``::

    # Don't use auto sequential search
    GRN_BETWEEN_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO=-1
    # Set threshold to 0.02
    GRN_BETWEEN_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO=0.02

  if customize by the environment variable, this threshold applies to all queries, but we can specify it in each query by using this feature.

  The details are as follows. We can specify the threshold by using ``{"too_many_index_match_ratio": x.xx}`` option.
  The value type of this option is ``double``.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* [The browser based administration tool] Currently, Groonga has a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

* If we repeat that we remove any data and load them again, Groonga may not return records that should match.

.. _release-11-0-4:

Release 11.0.4 - 2021-06-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [Normalizer] Added support for customized normalizer.

  We define a table for normalize to use this feature.
  We can normalize with use that table.
  In other words, we can use customized normalizer.

  For example, we define that "S" normalize to "5" in the following example.
  The ``Substitutions`` table is for nromalize.

    .. code-block::

       table_create Substitutions TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText
       column_create Substitutions substituted COLUMN_SCALAR ShortText
       load --table Substitutions
       [

       ]

                                       "report_source_offset", true)'
       column_create Terms tel_index COLUMN_INDEX|WITH_POSITION TelLists tel

       load --table TelLists
       [
       {"tel": "03-4S-1234"}
       ]

       select TelLists --filter 'tel @ "03-45-1234"'
       [
         [
           0,
           1624686303.538532,
           0.001319169998168945
         ],
         [
           [
             [
               1
             ],
             [
               [
                 "_id",
                 "UInt32"
               ],
               [
                 "tel",
                 "ShortText"
               ]
             ],
             [
               1,
               "03-4S-1234"
             ]
           ]
         ]
       ]

  For example, we can define to the table easy to false recognize words when we input a handwritten data.
  By this, we can normalize incorrect data to correct data.

  Note that we need to reconstruct the index if we updated the table for normalize.

* Added a new command ``object_warm``.

  This commnad ship Groonga's DB to OS's page cache.

  If we never startup Groonga after OS startup, Groonga's DB doesn't exist on OS's page cache
  When Groonga on the first run.
  Therefore, the first operation to Groonga is slow.

  If we execute this command in advance, the first operation to Groonga is fast.
  In Linux, we can do the same by also executing ``cat *.db > dev/null``.
  However, we could not do the same thing in Windows until now.

  By using this command, we can ship Groonga's DB to OS's page cache in both Linux and Windows.
  Then, we can also do that in units of table, column, and index.
  Therefore, we can ship only table, column, and index that we often use to OS's page cache.

  We can execute this command against various targets as below.

    * If we specify ``object_warm --name index_name``, the index is shipped to OS's page cache.
    * If we specify ``object_warm --name column_name``, the column is shipped to OS's page cache.
    * If we specify ``object_warm --name table_name`` is shipped to OS's page cache.
    * If we specify ``object_warm``, whole Groonga's database is shipped to OS's page cache.

  However, note that if OS has not empty space on memory, this command has no effect.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for adjusting the score of a specific record in ``--filter``.

  We can adjust the score of a specific record by using a oprtator named ``*~``.
  ``*~`` is logical operator same as ``&&`` and ``||``. Therefore, we can use ``*~`` like as ``&&`` ans ``||``.
  Default weight of ``*~`` is -1.

  Therefore, for example, ``'content @ "Groonga" *~ content @ "Mroonga"'`` mean the following operations.

    1. Extract records that match ``'content @ "Groonga"`` and ``content @ "Mroonga"'``.
    2. Add a score as below.

       a. Calculate the score of ``'content @ "Groonga"``.
       b. Calculate the score of ``'content @ "Mroonga"'``.
       c. b's score multiplied by -1 by ``*~``.
       d. The socre of this record is a + b
          Therefore, if a's socre is 1 and b's score is 1, the score of this record  is 1 + (1 * -1) = 0.

  Then, we can specify score quantity by ``*~${score_quantity}``.

  In particular, the following query adjust the score of match records by the following condition(``'content @ "Groonga" *~2.5 content @ "Mroonga")'`` ).

       select Memos \
         --command_version 3 \
         --filter 'content @ "Groonga" *~2.5 content @ "Mroonga"' \

             [
               "Groonga is a full text search engine.",

             [
               "Rroonga is the Ruby bindings of Groonga.",
               1.0

             [
               "Mroonga is a MySQL storage engine based of Groonga.",
               -1.5
             ]
           ]
         }
       }

  We can do the same by also useing :ref:`select-adjuster` .
  If we use :ref:`select-adjuster` , we need to make ``--filter`` condition and ``--adjuster`` conditon on our application, but we make only ``--filter`` condition on it by this improvement.

  We can also describe filter condition as below by using ``query()``.

    * ``--filter 'content @ "Groonga" *~2.5 content @ "Mroonga"'``

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for ``&&`` with weight.

  We can use ``&&`` with weight by using ``*<`` or ``*>``.
  Default weight of ``*<`` is 0.5. Default weight of ``*>`` is 2.0.

  We can specify score quantity by ``*<${score_quantity}`` and ``*>${score_quantity}``.
  Then, if we specify ``*<${score_quantity}``, a plus or minus sign of ``${score_quantity}`` is reverse.

  For example, ``'content @ "Groonga" *<2.5 query("content", "MySQL")'`` is as below.

    1. Extract records that match ``'content @ "Groonga"`` and ``content @ "Mroonga"'``.
    2. Add a score as below.

       a. Calculate the score of ``'content @ "Groonga"``.
       b. Calculate the score of ``query("content", "MySQL")``.
       c. b's score multiplied by -2.5 by ``*<``.
       d. The socre of this record is a + b
          Therefore, if a's socre is 1 and b's score is 1, the score of this record is 1 + (1 * -2.5) = -1.5.

  In particular, the following query adjust the score of match records by the following condition( ``'content @ "Groonga" *<2.5 query("content", "Mroonga")'`` ).

* [:doc:`reference/log`] Added support for outputting to stdout and stderr.

  [:ref:`process-log`] and [:ref:`query-log`] supported　output to stdout and stderr.

    * If we specify as ``--log-path -``, ``--query-log-path -``, Groonga output log to stdout.
    * If we specify as ``--log-path +``, ``--query-log-path +``, Groonga output log to stderr.

  [:ref:`process-log`] is for all of Groonga works.
  [:ref:`query-log`] is just for query processing.

  This feature is useful when we execute Groonga on Docker.
  Docker has the feature that records stdout and stderr in standard.
  Therefore, we don't need to login into the environment of Docker to get Groonga's log.

  For example, this feature is useful as he following case.

    * If we want to analyze slow queries of Groonga on Docker.

      If we specify ``--query-log-path -`` when startup Groonga, we can analyze slow queries by only execution the following commands.

        * ``docker logs ${container_name} | groonga-query-log-analyze``

  By this, we can analyze slow query with the query log that output from Groonga on Docker simply.

* [Documentation] Filled missing documentation of ``string_substring``. [GitHub#1209][Patched by Takashi Hashida]

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* [The browser based administration tool] Currently, Groonga has a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list.

* ``*<`` and ``*>`` only valid when we use ``query()`` the right side of filter condition.
  If we specify as below, ``*<`` and ``*>`` work as ``&&``.

    * ``'content @ "Groonga" *< content @ "Mroonga"'``

.. _release-11-0-3:

Release 11.0.3 - 2021-05-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query`] Added support for ignoring ``TokenFilterStem`` by the query.

  * ``TokenFilterStem`` can search by using a stem.
    For example, all of ``develop``, ``developing``, ``developed`` and ``develops`` tokens are stemmed as ``develop``.
    So we can find ``develop``, ``developing`` and ``developed`` by ``develops`` query.

  * In this release, we are able to search without ``TokenFilterStem`` in only a specific query as below.

         ]
       ]

  * This feature is useful when users want to search by a stemmed word generally but users sometimes want to search by a exact (not stemmed) word as below.

    * If Groonga returns many results when searching by a stemmed word.
    * If ``TokenFilterStem`` returns the wrong result of stemming.
    * If we want to find only records that have an exact (not stemmed) word.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query`] Added support for ignoring ``TokenFilterStopWord`` by the query.

  * ``TokenFilterStopWord`` searched without stop word that we registered beforehand.
    It uses for reducing noise of search by ignoring frequently word (e.g., ``and``, ``is``, and so on.).
  * However, we sometimes want to search include these words only a specific query. In this release, we are able to search without ``TokenFilterStopWord`` in only a specific query as below.

  * This feature is useful if that Groonga can't return results correctly if we don't search by keywords include commonly used words (e.g., if a search for a song title, a shop name, and so on.).

* [:doc:`/reference/normalizers`][NormalizerNFKC] Added a new option ``remove_new_line``.

  * If we want to normalize the key of a table that stores data, we set a normalizer to it.
    However, normally, normalizers remove a new line.
  * Groonga can't handle a key that is only a new line.
  * We can register data that is only a new line as key by this option.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/string_slice`] Added a new function ``string_slice()``. [Github#1177][Patched by Takashi Hashida]

  * ``string_slice()`` extracts a substring of a string.
  * To enable this function, we need to register ``functions/string`` plugin.
  * We can use two different extraction methods depending on the arguments as below.

    * Extraction by position::

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Dropped support for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus).

* Added EditorConfig for Visual Studio. [GitHub#1191][Patched by Takashi Hashida]

  * Most settings are for Visual Studio only.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.20.1.

  * Contains security fix of CVE-2021-23017.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that Groonga may not have returned a result of a search query if we sent many search queries when tokenizer, normalizer, or token_filters that support options were used.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* [The browser based administration tool] Currently, Groonga has a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for describing expression into ``--sort_keys``.

  * We can describe the expression into ``--sort_keys``.

    * If nonexistent keys into expression as a ``--sort_keys``, they are ignored and outputted warns into a log.

  * By this, for example, we can specify a value of an element of ``VECTOR COLUMN`` to ``--sort_keys``. And we can sort a result with it.
  * We can sort a result with an element of ``VECTOR COLUMN`` even if the before version by using dynamic column.
    However, we can sort a result with an element of ``VECTOR COLUMN`` without using dynamic column by this feature.

* [:doc:`/reference/token_filters`] Added support for multiple token filters with options.

  * We can specify multiple token filters with options like ``--token_filters 'TokenFilterStopWord("column", "ignore"), TokenFilterNFKC130("unify_kana", true)'``. [Github#mroonga/mroonga#399][Reported by MASUDA Kazuhiro]

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query`] Added support a dynamic column of ``result_set`` stage with complex expression.

  * Complex expression is that it needs temporary result sets internally like a following expression.

    .. code-block::

       '(true && query("name * 10", "ali", {"score_column": "ali_score"})) || \
        (true && query("name * 2", "li", {"score_column": "li_score"}))'

    * In the above expressions, the temporary result sets are used to store the result of evaluating the ``true``.
    * Therefore, for example, in the following expression, we can use a value of dynamic column of ``result_set`` stage in expression. Because temporary result sets internally are needless as below expression.

      .. code-block::

         '(query("name * 10", "ali", {"score_column": "ali_score"})) || \
          (query("name * 2", "li", {"score_column": "li_score"}))'

  * In this release, for example, we can set a value to ``li_score`` as below. (The value of ``li_score`` had been ``0`` in before version. Because the second expression could not get dynamic column.)

    * If we use a dynamic vector column, the storing values are appended values of each element.

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Added support for Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo).

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.19.10.

Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

* [The browser based administration tool] Currently, Groonga has a bug that a search query that is inputted to non-administration mode is sent even if we input checks to the checkbox for the administration mode of a record list. [Github#1186][Reported by poti]

.. _release-11-0-1:

Release 11.0.1 - 2021-03-31
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/install/debian`] Added support for a ARM64 package.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for customizing adjust weight every key word.

  * We need to specify ``<`` or ``>`` to all keywords to adjust scores until now.
    Because the default adjustment of weight (6 or 4) is larger than the default score (1).

    * Therefore, for example, "A"'s weight is 1 and "B"'s weight is 4 in ``A <B``.
      Decremented "B"'s weight (4) is larger than not decremented "A"'s weight (1).
      This is not works as expected.
      we need to specify ``>A <B`` to use smaller weight than "A" for "B".
      "A"'s weight is 6 and "B"'s weight is 4 in ``>A <B``.

  * We can customize adjustment of weight every key word by only specifying ``<${WEIGHT}`` or ``>${WEIGHT}`` to target keywords since this release.
    For example, "A"'s weight is 1 and "B"'s weight is 0.9 in ``A <0.1B`` ("B"'s weight decrement 0.1).

  * However, note that these forms ( ``>${WEIGHT}...``, ``<${WEIGHT}...``, and ``~${WEIGHT}...`` ) are incompatible.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for outputting ``Float`` and ``Float32`` value in Apache Arrow format.

  * For example, Groonga output as below.

  .. code-block::

     table_create Data TABLE_NO_KEY
     column_create Data float COLUMN_SCALAR Float

     [
     {"float": 1.1}

       GROONGA:n_hits: 1
       	_id	     float
       0	  1	  1.100000

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for getting a reference destination data via index column when we output a result.

  * Until now, Groonga had returned involuntary value when we specified output value like ``index_column.xxx``.
    For example, A value of ``--columns[tags].value purchases.tag`` was ``["apple",["many"]],["banana",["man"]],["cacao",["man"]]`` in the following example. In this case, the expected values was ``["apple",["man","many"]],["banana",["man"]],["cacao",["woman"]]``.
    In this release, we can get a correct reference destination data via index column as below.

      ]

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for specifying index column directly as a part of nested index.

  * We can search source table after filtering by using ``index_column.except_source_column``.
    For example, we specify ``comments.content`` when searching in the following example.
    In this case, at first, this query execute full text search from ``content`` column of ``Commentts`` table, then fetch the records of Articles table which refers to already searched records of Comments table.

  * Currently, this feature doesn't support nested reference record.

* [Windows] Added support for UNIX epoch for ``time_classify_*`` functions.

  * Groonga handles timestamps on local time. Therefore, for example, if we input the UNIX epoch in Japan, inputting time is 9 hours behind the UNIX epoch.

  * The Windows API outputs an error when we input the time before the UNIX epoch.

  * We can use the UNIX epoch in ``time_classify_*`` functions as below in this release.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query_parallel_or`] Added a new function for processing queries in parallel.

  * ``query_parallel_or`` requires Apache Arrow for processing queries in parallel.
    If it does not enable, ``query_parallel_or`` processes queries in sequence.

  * ``query_parallel_or`` processes combination of ``match_columns`` and ``query_string`` in parallel.

  * Syntax of ``query_parallel_or`` is as follow::

      query_parallel_or(match_columns, query_string1,
                                       query_string2,
                                       .
                                       .
                                       .
                                       query_stringN,
                                       {"option": "value", ...})

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for ignoring nonexistent sort keys.

  * Groonga had been outputted error when we specified nonexistent sort keys until now.
    However, Groonga ignore nonexistent sort keys since this release. (Groonga doesn't output error.)
  * This feature implements for consistency.
    Because we just ignore invalid values in ``output_columns`` and most of invalid values in ``sort_keys``.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for ignoring nonexistent tables in ``drilldowns[].table``. [GitHub#1169][Reported by naoa]

  * Groonga had been outputted error when we specified nonexistent tables in ``drilldowns[].table`` until now.
    However, Groonga ignore nonexistent tables in ``drilldowns[].table`` since this release. (Groonga doesn't output error.)
  * This feature implements for consistency.
    Because we just ignore invalid values in ``output_columns`` and most of invalid values in ``sort_keys``.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.19.8.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/reference_acquire`] Fixed a bug that Groonga crash when a table's reference is acquired and a column is added to the table before auto release is happened.

  * Because the added column's reference isn't acquired but it's released on auto release.

* [Windows] Fixed a bug that one or more processes fail an output backtrace on SEGV when a new backtrace logging process starts when another backtrace logging process is running in another thread.


Known Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Currently, Groonga has a bug that there is possible that data is corrupt when we execute many additions, delete, and update data to vector column.

.. _release-11-0-0:

Release 11.0.0 - 2021-02-09
---------------------------

This is a major version up! But It keeps backward compatibility. We can upgrade to 11.0.0 without rebuilding database.

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for outputting values of scalar column and vector column via nested index.

  * The nested index is that has structure as below.

    .. code-block::

      table_create Products TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText

      table_create Purchases TABLE_NO_KEY
      column_create Purchases product COLUMN_SCALAR Products
      column_create Purchases tag COLUMN_SCALAR ShortText

      column_create Products purchases COLUMN_INDEX Purchases product

  * The ``Products.purchases`` column is a index of ``Purchases.product`` column in the above example.
    Also, ``Purchases.product`` is a reference to ``Products`` table.

  * We had not got the correct search result when we search via nested index until now.
  * The result had been as follows until now. We can see that ``{"product": "apple",  "tag": "man"}`` is not output.

* [Windows] Dropped support for packages of Windows version that we had cross compiled by using MinGW on Linux.

  * Because there aren't probably many people who use that.
  * These above packages are that We had provided as below name until now.

    * ``groonga-x.x.x-x86.exe``
    * ``groonga-x.x.x-x86.zip``
    * ``groonga-x.x.x-x64.exe``
    * ``groonga-x.x.x-x86.zip``

  * From now on, we use the following packages for Windows.

    * ``groonga-latest-x86-vs2019-with-vcruntime.zip``
    * ``groonga-latest-x64-vs2019-with-vcruntime.zip``

  * If a system already has installed Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library, we suggest that we use the following packages.

    * ``groonga-latest-x86-vs2019.zip``
    * ``groonga-latest-x64-vs2019.zip``

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that there is possible that index is corrupt when Groonga executes many additions, delete, and update information in it.

  * This bug occurs when we only execute many delete information from index.
    However, it doesn't occur when we only execute many additions information into index.

  * We can repair the index that is corrupt by this bug using reconstruction of it.

  * This bug doesn't detect unless we reference the broken index.
    Therefore, the index in our indexes may has already broken.

  * We can use [:doc:`reference/commands/index_column_diff`] command to confirm whether the index has already been broken or not.

.. _release-10-1-1:

Release 10.1.1 - 2021-01-25
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for outputting UInt64 value in Apache Arrow format.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for outputting a number of hits in Apache Arrow format as below.

  .. code-block::

     -- metadata --
     GROONGA:n-hits: 10

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query`] Added support for optimization of "order by estimated size".

  * Normally, we can search at high speed when we first execute a condition which number of hits is a little.

    * The "B (There are few) && A (There are many)" faster than "A (There are many) && B (There are few)".

  * This is a known optimization. However we need reorder conditions by ourselves.
  * Groonga executes this reorder automatically by using optimization of "order by estimated size".
  * This optimization is valid by ``GRN_ORDER_BY_ESTIMATED_SIZE_ENABLE=yes``.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`] Improved performance by the following improvements.

  * Improved the accuracy of a decision whether the ``between()`` use sequential search or not.
  * Improved that we set a result of ``between()`` into a result set in bulk.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved performance for a prefix search.

  * For example, the performance of the following prefix search by using "*" improved.

    .. code-block::

       table_create Memos TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText
       table_create Contents TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText   --normalizer NormalizerAuto
       column_create Contents entries_key_index COLUMN_INDEX Memos _key

       {"_key": "(mroonga) Installed"},
       {"_key": "(groonga) Upgraded!"}
       ]

       select \
         --table Memos \
         --match_columns _key \
         --query '\\(groonga\\)*'

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`][TokenMecab] Improved performance for parallel construction fo token column. [GitHub#1158][Patched by naoa]

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/functions/sub_filter`] Fixed a bug that ``sub_filter`` doesn't work in ``slices[].filter``.

  * For example, the result of ``sub_filter`` was 0 records by the following query by this bug.

    .. code-block::

       table_create Users TABLE_HASH_KEY ShortText
       column_create Users age COLUMN_SCALAR UInt8

       table_create Memos TABLE_NO_KEY
       column_create Memos user COLUMN_SCALAR Users
       column_create Memos content COLUMN_SCALAR Text

       load --table Users
       [
       {"_key": "alice", "age": 9},
       {"_key": "bob",   "age": 29}
       ]

       load --table Memos
       [
       {"user": "alice", "content": "hello"},
       {"user": "bob",   "content": "world"},
       {"user": "alice", "content": "bye"},
       {"user": "bob",   "content": "yay"}
       ]

       select \
         --table Memos \
         --slices[adult].filter '_id > 1 && sub_filter(user, "age >= 18")'

* Fixed a bug that it is possible that we can't add data and Groonga crash when we repeat much addition of data and deletion of data against a hash table.

.. _release-10-1-0:

Release 10.1.0 - 2020-12-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/highlight_html`] Added support for removing leading full width spaces from highlight target. [PGroonga#GitHub#155][Reported by Hung Nguyen V]

  * Until now, leading full width spaces had also included in the target of highlight as below.

            ]
          ]
        ]
      ]

  * However, this is needless as the target of highlight.
    Therefore, in this release, ``highlight_html()`` removes leading full width spaces.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/status`] Added a new item ``features``.

  * We can display which Groonga's features are enabled as below.

  * This item only display when Apache Arrow is valid in Groonga.

* [:doc:`/reference/window_function`] Added support for processing all tables at once even if target tables straddle a shard. (experimental)

  * If the target tables straddle a shard, the window function had processed each shard until now.

    * Therefore, if we used multiple group keys in windows functions, the value of the group keys from the second had to be one kind of value.
    * However, we can use multiple kind of values for it as below by this improvement.

  * This feature requires Apache Arrow 3.0.0 that is not released yet.

* Added support for sequential search against reference column.

  * This feature is only used if an index search will match many records and the current result set is enough small.

    * Because the sequential search is faster than the index search in the above case.

  * It is invalid by default.
  * It is valid if we set ``GRN_II_SELECT_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO_REFERENCE`` environment variable.

  * ``GRN_II_SELECT_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO_REFERENCE`` environment variable is a threshold to switch the sequential search from the index search.

    * For example, if we set ``GRN_II_SELECT_TOO_MANY_INDEX_MATCH_RATIO_REFERENCE=0.7`` as below, if the number of records for the result set less than 70 % of total records, a search is executed by a sequential search.

* [tokenizers] Added support for the token column into ``TokenDocumentVectorTFIDF`` and ``TokenDocumentVectorBM25``.

  * If there is the token column that has the same source as the index column, these tokenizer use the token id of the token column.

    * The token column has already had data that has already finished tokenize.
    * Therefore, these tokenizer are improved performance by using a token column.

  * For example, we can use this feature by making a token column named ``content_tokens`` as below.

  * ``TokenDocumentVectorTFIDF`` and ``TokenDocumentVectorBM25`` give a weight against each tokens.

    * ``TokenDocumentVectorTFIDF`` calculate a weight for token by using TF-IDF.

	* Please refer to https://radimrehurek.com/gensim/models/tfidfmodel.html about TF-IDF.

    * ``TokenDocumentVectorBM25`` calculate a weight for token by using Okapi BM25.

	* Please refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okapi_BM25 about Okapi BM25.

* Improved performance when below case.

  * ``(column @ "value") && (column @ "value")``

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Added support for Ubuntu 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla).

* [:doc:`/install/debian`] Dropped stretch support.

  * It reached EOL.

* [:doc:`/install/centos`] Dropped CentOS 6.

  * It reached EOL.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.19.6.

Release 10.0.9 - 2020-12-01
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Improved performance when we specified ``-1`` to ``limit``.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/reference_acquire`] Added a new option ``--auto_release_count``.

  * Groonga reduces a reference count automatically when a request reaching the number of value that is specified in ``--auto_release_count``.

  * For example, the acquired reference of ``Users`` is released automatically after the second ``status`` is processed as below.

    .. code-block::

      reference_acquire --target_name Users --auto_release_count 2
      status # Users is still referred.
      status # Users' reference is released after this command is processed.

  * We can prevent a leak of the release of acquired reference by this option.

* Modify behavior when Groonga evaluated empty ``vector`` and ``uvector``.

  * Empty ``vector`` and ``uvector`` are evaluated to ``false`` in command version 3.

    * This behavior is valid for only command version 3.
    * Note that the different behavior until now.

* [:doc:`/reference/normalizers`] Added a new Normalizer ``NormalizerNFKC130`` based on Unicode NFKC (Normalization Form Compatibility Composition) for Unicode 13.0.

* [:doc:`/reference/token_filters`] Added a new TokenFilter ``TokenFilterNFKC130`` based on Unicode NFKC (Normalization Form Compatibility Composition) for Unicode 13.0.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved performance for ``"_score = column - X"``.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/reference_acquire`] Improved that ``--reference_acquire`` doesn't get unnecessary reference of index column when we specify the ``--recursive dependent`` option.

  * From this release, the targets of ``--recursive dependent`` are only the target table's key  and the index column that is set to data column.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Add support for ordered near phrase search.

  * Until now, the near phrase search have only looked for records that the distance of between specified phrases near.
  * This feature look for satisfy the following conditions records.

    * If the distance of between specified phrases is near.
    * If the specified phrases are in line with specified order.

  * This feature use ``*ONP`` as an operator. (Note that the operator isn't ``*NP``.)

  * ``$`` is handled as itself in the query syntax. Note that it isn't a special character in the query syntax.

  * If we use script syntax, this feature use as below.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.19.5.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-server-http`] Fixed that Groonga HTTP server finished without waiting all woker threads finished completely.

  * Until now, Groonga HTTP server had started the process of finish after worker threads finished itself process.
    However, worker threads may not finish completely at this timing. Therefore, Groonga HTTP server may crashed according to timing. Because Groonga HTTP server may free area of memory that worker threads are using them yet.

.. _release-10-0-8:

Release 10.0.8 - 2020-10-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for large drilldown keys.

  * The maximum on the key size of Groonga's tables are 4KiB.
    However, if we specify multiple keys in drilldown, the size of drilldown keys may be larger than 4KiB.

    * For example, if the total size for ``tag`` key and ``n_like`` key is lager than 4KiB in the following case,
      the drilldown had failed.

    .. code-block::

      select Entries \
        --limit -1 \
        --output_columns tag,n_likes \
        --drilldowns[tag.n_likes].keys tag,n_likes \
        --drilldowns[tag.n_likes].output_columns _value.tag,_value.n_likes,_nsubrecs

    * Because the drilldown packes specifying all keys for drilldown. So, if each the size of drilldown key is large,
      the size of the packed drilldown keys is larger than 4KiB.

  * This feature requires `xxHash <https://github.com/Cyan4973/xxHash>`_ .

    * However, if we install Groonga from package, we can use this feature without doing anything special.
      Because Groonga's package already include `xxHash <https://github.com/Cyan4973/xxHash>`_ .

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for handling as the same dynamic column even if columns refer to different tables.

  * We can't have handled the same dynamic column if columns refer to different tables until now.
    Because the type of columns is different.

  * However, from this version, we can handle the same dynamic column even if columns refer to different tables by casting to built-in types as below.

    .. code-block::

      table_create Store_A TABLE_HASH_KEY ShortText
      table_create Store_B TABLE_HASH_KEY ShortText

      table_create Customers TABLE_HASH_KEY Int32
      column_create Customers customers_A COLUMN_VECTOR Store_A
      column_create Customers customers_B COLUMN_VECTOR Store_B

      load --table Customers
      [
        {"_key": 1604020694, "customers_A": ["A", "B", "C"]},
        {"_key": 1602724694, "customers_B": ["Z", "V", "Y", "T"]},
      ]

      select Customers \
        --filter '_key == 1604020694' \
        --columns[customers].stage output \
        --columns[customers].flags COLUMN_VECTOR \
        --columns[customers].type ShortText \
        --columns[customers].value 'customers_A' \
        --output_columns '_key, customers'

  * We have needed to set ``Store_A`` or ``Store_B`` in the ``type`` of ``customers`` column until now.
  * The type of ``customers_A`` column cast to ``ShortText`` in the above example.
  * By this, we can also set the value of ``customers_B`` in the value of ``customers`` column.
    Because both the key of ``customers_A`` and ``customers_B`` are ``ShortText`` type.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved performance when the number of records for search result are huge.

  * This optimization works when below cases.

    * ``--filter 'column <= "value"'`` or ``--filter 'column >= "value"'``
    * ``--filter 'column == "value"'``
    * ``--filter 'between(...)'`` or ``--filter 'between(_key, ...)'``
    * ``--filter 'sub_filter(reference_column, ...)'``
    * Comparing against ``_key`` such as ``--filter '_key > "value"'``.
    * ``--filter 'geo_in_circle(...)'``

* Updated bundled LZ4 to 1.9.2 from 1.8.2.

* Added support xxHash 0.8

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.19.4.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed the following bugs related the browser based administration tool. [GitHub#1139][Reported by sutamin]

  * The problem that Groonga's logo had not been displayed.
  * The problem that the throughput chart had not been displayed on the index page for Japanese.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`] Fixed a bug that ``between(_key, ...)`` is always evaluated by sequential search.

.. _release-10-0-7:

Release 10.0.7 - 2020-09-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [highlight], [:doc:`/reference/functions/highlight_full`] Added support for normalizer options.

* [:doc:`/reference/command/return_code`] Added a new return code ``GRN_CONNECTION_RESET`` for resetting connection.

  * it is returned when an existing connection was forcibly close by the remote host.

* Dropped Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan Ermine).

  * Because this version has been EOL.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.19.2.

* [:doc:`/reference/executables/grndb`] Added support for detecting duplicate keys.

  * ``grndb check`` is also able to detect duplicate keys since this release.
  * This check valid except a table of ``TABLE_NO_KEY``.
  * If the table that was detected duplicate keys by ``grndb check`` has only index columns, we can recover by ``grndb recover``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/table_create`], [:doc:`/reference/commands/column_create`] Added a new option ``--path``

  * We can store specified a table or a column to any path using this option.
  * This option is useful if we want to store a table or a column that
    we often use to fast storage (e.g. SSD) and store them that we don't often
    use to slow storage (e.g. HDD).
  * We can specify both relative path and absolute path in this option.

    * If we specify relative path in this option, the path is resolved the path of ``groonga`` process as the origin.

  * However, if we specify ``--path``, the result of ``dump`` command includes ``--path`` informations.

    * Therefore, if we specify ``--path``, we can't restore to host in different enviroment.

      * Because the directory configuration and the location of ``groonga`` process in different by each enviroment.

    * If we don't want include ``--path`` informations to a dump, we need specify ``--dump_paths no`` in ``dump`` command.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/dump`] Added a new option ``--dump_paths``.

  * ``--dump_paths`` option control whether ``--path`` is dumped or not.
  * The default value of it is ``yes``.
  * If we specify ``--path`` when we create tables or columns and we don't want include ``--path`` informations to a dump, we specify ``no`` into ``--dump_paths`` when we execute ``dump`` command.

* [functions] Added a new function ``string_toknize()``.

  * It tokenizes the column value that is specified in the second argument with the tokenizer that is specified in the first argument.

* [tokenizers] Added a new tokenizer ``TokenDocumentVectorTFIDF`` (experimental).

  * It generates automatically document vector by TF-IDF.

* [tokenizers] Added a new tokenizer ``TokenDocumentVectorBM25`` (experimental).

  * It generates automatically document vector by BM25.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for near search in same sentence.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Fixed a bug that ``load`` didn't a return response when we executed it against 257 columns.

  * This bug may occur from 10.0.4 or later.
  * This bug only occur when we load data by using ``[a, b, c, ...]`` format.

    * If we load data by using ``[{...}]``, this bug doesn't occur.

* [MessagePack] Fixed a bug that float32 value wasn't unpacked correctly.

* Fixed the following bugs related multi column index.

  * ``_score`` may be broken with full text search.
  * The records that couldn't hit might hit.
  * Please refer to the following URL for the details about occurrence conditionin of this bug.

    * https://groonga.org/en/blog/2020/09/29/groonga-10.0.7.html#multi-column-index

.. _release-10-0-6:

Release 10.0.6 - 2020-08-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_range_filter`] Improved search plan for large data.

  * Normally, ``logical_range_filter`` is faster than ``logical_select``.
    However, it had been slower than ``logical_select`` in the below case.

    * If Groonga can't get the number of required records easily, it has the feature that switches index search from sequential search. (Normally, ``logical_range_filter`` uses a sequential search when records of search target are many.)
    * The search process for it is almost the same as ``logical_select`` if the above switching occurred.
      So, ``logical_range_filter`` is severalfold slower than ``logical_select`` in the above case if the search target is large data.
      Because ``logical_range_filter`` executes sort after the search.

  * If we search for large data, Groonga easily use sequential search than until now since this release.
  * Therefore, ``logical_range_filter`` will improve performance. Because the case of the search process almost the same as ``logical_select`` decreases.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.19.1.

* Modify how to install into Debian GNU/Linux.

  * We modify to use ``groonga-apt-source`` instead of ``groonga-archive-keyring``. Because the ``lintian`` command recommends using ``apt-source`` if a package that it puts files under the ``/etc/apt/sources.lists.d/``.

    * The ``lintian`` command is the command which checks for many common packaging errors.
    * Please also refer to the following URL for the details about installation procedures.

      * https://groonga.org/docs/install/debian.html

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_select`] Added a support for ``highlight_html`` and ``highlight_full`` .

* Added support for recycling the IDs of records that are deleted when an array without value space delete.[GitHub#mroonga/mroonga#327][Reported by gaeeyo]

  * If an array that doesn't have value space is deleted, deleted IDs are never recycled.
  * Groonga had used large storage space by large ID. Because it uses large storage space by itself.

    * For example, large ID is caused after many adds and deletes like Mroonga's ``mroonga_operations``

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved performance of full-text-search without index.

* [:doc:`reference/function`] Improved performance for calling of function that all arguments a variable reference or literal.

* [:doc:`reference/indexing`] Improved performance of offline index construction by using token column. [GitHub#1126][Patched by naoa]

* Improved performance for ``"_score = func(...)"``.

  * The performance when the ``_score`` value calculate by using only function like ``"_score = func(...)"`` improved.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that garbage may be included in response after response send error.

  * It may occur if a client didn't read all responses and closed the connection.

.. _release-10-0-5:

Release 10.0.5 - 2020-07-30
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for storing reference in table that we specify with ``--load_table``.

  * ``--load_table`` is a feature that stores search results to the table in a prepared.

    * If the searches are executed multiple times, we can cache the search results by storing them to this table.
    * We can shorten the search times that the search after the first time by using this table.

  * We can store a reference to other tables into the key of this table as below since this release.

    * We can make a smaller size of this table. Because we only store references without store column values.
    * If we search against this table, we can search by using indexes for reference destination.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved sort performance on below cases.

    * For example, the following expression needs ID resolution.

      * ``--filter true --sort_keys column``

    * For example, the following expression doesn't need ID resolution.
      Because the ``_score`` pseudo column exists in the result table not the source table.

      * ``--filter true --sort_keys _score``

  * When a sort target table has a key.

    * Therefore, ``TABLE_NO_KEY`` isn't supported this improvement.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved performance a bit on below cases.

  * A case of searching for many records matches.
  * A case of drilldown for many records.

* [aggregator] Added support for score accessor for target. [GitHub#1120][Patched by naoa]

  * For example, we can ``_score`` subject to ``aggregator_*`` as below.

* [:doc:`reference/indexing`] Improved performance of offline index construction on VC++ version.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Use ``null`` instead ``NaN``, ``Infinity``, and ``-Infinity`` when Groonga outputs result for JSON format.

  * Because JSON doesn't support them.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Add support fot aggregating standard deviation value.

  * For example, we can calculate a standard deviation for every group as below.

    * We can also calculate sample standard deviation to specifing ``aggregate_sd(target, {"unbiased": true})``.

* [Windows] Dropped Visual Studio 2013 support.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-server-http`] Fixed a bug that a request can't halt even if we execute ``shutdown?mode=immediate`` when the response was halted by error occurrence.

* Fixed a crash bug when an error occurs while a request.

  * It only occurs when we use Apache Arrow Format.
  * Groonga crashes when we send request to Groonga again after the previous request was halted by error occurrence.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`] Fixed a crash bug when temporary table is used.

  * For example, if we specify a dynamic column in the first argument for ``between``, Groonga had crashed.

* Fixed a bug that procedure created by plugin is freed unexpectedly.

  * It's only occurred in reference count mode.
  * It's not occurred if we don't use ``plugin_register``.
  * It's not occurred in the process that executes ``plugin_register``.
  * It's occurred in the process that doesn't execute ``plugin_register``.

* Fixed a bug that normalization error occurred while static index construction by ``token_column``. [GitHub#1122][Reported by naoa]

.. _release-10-0-4:

Release 10.0.4 - 2020-06-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/tables`] Added support for registering 400M records into a hash table.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improve scorer performance when the ``_score`` doesn't get recursively values.

  * Groonga get recursively value of ``_score`` when search result is search target.
  * For example, the search targets of ``slices`` are search result. Therefore, if we use ``slice`` in a query, this improvement doesn't ineffective.

* [:doc:`reference/log`] Improved that we output drilldown keys in query-log.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/reference_acquire`], [:doc:`reference/commands/reference_release`] Added new commands for reference count mode.

  * If we need to call multiple ``load`` in a short time, auto close by the reference count mode will degrade performance.
  * We can avoid the performance degrading by calling ``reference_acquire`` before multiple ``load`` and calling ``reference_release`` after multiple ``load``.
    Between ``reference_acquire`` and ``reference_release``, auto close is disabled.

    * Because ``reference_acquire`` acquires a reference of target objects.

  * We can must call ``reference_release`` after you finish performance impact operations.
  * If we don't call ``reference_release``, the reference count mode doesn't work.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for aggregating multiple groups on one time ``drilldown``.

  * We came to be able to calculate sum or arithmetic mean every different multiple groups on one time ``drilldown`` as below.

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga`] Added support for ``--pid-path`` in standalone mode.

  * Because ``--pid-path`` had been ignored in standalone mode in before version.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/io_flush`] Added support for reference count mode.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_range_filter`], [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_count`] Added support for reference count mode.

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-server-http`] We didn't add header after the last chunk.

  * Because there is a possibility to exist that the HTTP client ignores header after the last chunk.

* [vector_slice] Added support for a vector that has the value of the ``Float32`` type. [GitHub#1112 patched by naoa]

* Added support for parallel offline index construction using token column.

  * We came to be able to construct an offline index on parallel threads from data that are tokenized in advance.

  * We can tune parameters of parallel offline construction by the following environment variables

    * ``GRN_TOKEN_COLUMN_PARALLEL_CHUNK_SIZE`` : We specify how many records are processed per thread.

      * The default value is ``1024`` records.

    * ``GRN_TOKEN_COLUMN_PARALLEL_TABLE_SIZE_THRESHOLD`` : We specify how many source records are required for parallel offline construction.

      * The default value is ``102400`` records.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved performance for ``load_table`` on the reference count mode.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that the database of Groonga was broken when we search by using the dynamic columns that don't specify a ``--filter`` and stridden over shard.

* Fixed a bug that ``Float32`` type had not displayed on a result of ``schema`` command.

* Fixed a bug that we count in surplus to ``_nsubrecs`` when the reference ``uvector`` hasn't element.

.. _release-10-0-3:

Release 10.0.3 - 2020-05-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* We came to be able to construct an inverted index from data that are tokenized in advance.

  * The construct of an index is speeded up from this.
  * We need to prepare token column to use this improvement.
  * token column is an auto generated value column like an index column.
  * token column value is generated from source column value by tokenizing the source column value.

  * We can create a token column by setting the source column as below.

    .. code-block::

      table_create Terms TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText \
        --normalizer NormalizerNFKC121 \
        --default_tokenizer TokenNgram

      table_create Notes TABLE_NO_KEY
      column_create Notes title COLUMN_SCALAR Text

      # The last "title" is the source column.
      column_create Notes title_terms COLUMN_VECTOR Terms title

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] We came to be able to specify a ``vector`` for the argument of a function.

  * For example, ``flags`` options of ``query`` can describe by a ``vector`` as below.

    .. code-block::

      select \
        --table Memos \
        --filter 'query("content", "-content:@mroonga", \
                        { \
                          "expander": "QueryExpanderTSV", \
                          "flags": ["ALLOW_LEADING_NOT", "ALLOW_COLUMN"] \
                        })'

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added a new stage ``result_set`` for dynamic columns.

  * This stage generates a column into a result set table. Therefore, it is not generated if ``query`` or ``filter`` doesn't exist

    * Because if ``query`` or ``filter`` doesn't exist, Groonga doesn't make a result set table.

  * We can't use ``_value`` for the stage. The ``result_set`` stage is for storing value by ``score_column``.

* [vector_slice] Added support for weight vector that has weight of ``Float32`` type. [GitHub#1106 patched by naoa]

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for ``filtered`` stage and ``output`` stage of dynamic columns on drilldowns. [GitHub#1101 patched by naoa][GitHub#1100 patched by naoa]

  * We can use ``filtered`` and ``output`` stage of dynamic columns on drilldowns as with ``drilldowns[Label].stage filtered`` and ``drilldowns[Label].stage output``.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for ``Float`` type value in aggregating on drilldown.

  * We can aggregate max value, min value, and sum value for ``Float`` type value using ``MAX``, ``MIN``, and ``SUM``.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/query`] [:doc:`reference/functions/geo_in_rectangle`] [:doc:`reference/functions/geo_in_circle`] Added a new option ``score_column`` for ``query()``, ``geo_in_rectangle()``, and ``geo_in_circle()``.

  * We can store a score value by condition using ``score_column``.
  * Normally, Groonga calculate a score by adding scores of all conditions. However, we sometimes want to get a score value by condition.
  * For example, if we want to only use how near central coordinate as score as below, we use ``score_column``.

  * The sort by ``_score`` is meaningless in the above example. Because the value of ``_score`` is all ``1`` by ``category == "Tower"``.
    However, we can sort distance from central coordinate using ``score_column``.

* [Windows] Groonga came to be able to output backtrace when it occurs error even if it doesn't crash.

* [Windows] Dropped support for old Windows.

  * Groonga for Windows come to require Windows 8 (Windows Server 2012) or later from 10.0.3.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved sort performance when sort keys were mixed referable sort keys and the other sort keys.

  * We improved sort performance if mixed referable sort keys and the other and there are referable keys two or more.

    * Referable sort keys are sort keys that except below them.

      * Compressed columns
      * ``_value`` against the result of drilldown that is specified multiple values to the key of drilldown.
      * ``_key`` against patricia trie table that has not the key of ``ShortText`` type.
      * ``_score``

  * The more sort keys that except string, a decrease in the usage of memory for sort.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improved sort performance when sort keys are all referable keys case.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Improve scorer performance as a ``_socre = column1*X + column2*Y + ...`` case.

  * This optimization effective when there are many ``+`` or ``*`` in ``_score``.
  * At the moment, it has only effective against ``+`` and ``*``.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/select`] Added support for phrase near search.

  * We can search phrase by phrase by a near search.

    * Query syntax for near phrase search is ``*NP"Phrase1 phrase2 ..."``.
    * Script syntax for near phrase search is ``column *NP "phrase1 phrase2 ..."``.

    * If the search target phrase includes space, we can search for it by surrounding it with ``"`` as below.

* [:doc:`reference/columns/vector`] Added support for ``float32`` weight vector.

  * We can store weight as ``float32`` instead of ``uint32``.
  * We need to add ``WEIGHT_FLOAT32`` flag when execute ``column_create`` to use this feature.

    .. code-block::

       column_create Records tags COLUMN_VECTOR|WITH_WEIGHT|WEIGHT_FLOAT32 Tags

  * However, ``WEIGHT_FLOAT32`` flag isn't available with ``COLUMN_INDEX`` flag for now.

* Added following APIs

  * Added ``grn_obj_is_xxx`` functions. For more information as below.

    * ``grn_obj_is_weight_vector(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_obj *obj)``

    * It returns the size of Groonga data type as a ``size_t``.

  * Added ``grn_selector_data_get_xxx`` functions. For more information as below.

    * These functions return selector related data.

      * These functions are supposed to call in selector. If they are called except in selector, they return ``NULL``.

        * ``grn_selector_data_get(grn_ctx *ctx)``

          * It returns all information that relating calling selector as ``grn_selector_data *`` structure.

        * ``grn_selector_data_get_selector(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_selector_data *data)``

        * ``grn_selector_data_get_op(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_selector_data *data)``

          * It returns how to perform the set operation on existing result set as ``grn_operator``.

  * Added ``grn_plugin_proc_xxx`` functions. For more information as below.

    * ``grn_plugin_proc_get_value_operator(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_obj *value, grn_operator default_operator, const char *context)``

      * It returns the operator of a query as a ``grn_operator``.

        * For example, ``&&`` is returned as a ``GRN_OP_AND``.

      * It returns the value that is specified ``true`` or ``false`` like ``with_transposition`` argument of the below function as a ``bool`` (``bool`` is the data type of C language).

        .. code-block::

           fuzzy_search(column, query, {"max_distance": 1, "prefix_length": 0, "max_expansion": 0, "with_transposition": true})

  * Added ``grn_proc_options_xxx`` functions. For more information as below.

    * ``query()`` only uses them for now.

      * ``grn_proc_options_parsev(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_obj *options, const char *tag, const char *name, va_list args)``

        * This function execute parse options.
        * We had to implement parsing to options ourselves until now, however, we can parse them by just call this function from this version.

      * ``grn_proc_options_parse(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_obj *options, const char *tag, const char *name, ...)``

        * It calls ``grn_proc_options_parsev()``. Therefore, features of this function same ``grn_proc_options_parsev()``.
        * It only differs in the interface compare with ``grn_proc_options_parsev()``.

  * Added ``grn_text_printfv(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_obj *bulk, const char *format, va_list args)``

    * ``grn_text_vprintf`` is deprecated from 10.0.3. We use ``grn_text_printfv`` instead.

  * Added ``grn_type_id_is_float_family(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_id id)``.

    * It returns the number of max records the cursor can have as a ``size_t``. (This API is for the DAT table)

  * Added ``grn_table_cursor_get_max_n_records(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_table_cursor *cursor)``.

    * It returns the number of max records the cursor can have as a ``size_t``.
    * It can use against all table type (``TABLE_NO_KEY``, ``TABLE_HASH_KEY``, ``TABLE_DAT_KEY``, and ``TABLE_PAT_KEY``).

  * Added ``grn_result_set_add_xxx`` functions. For more information as below.

    * ``grn_result_set_add_record(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_hash *result_set, grn_posting *posting, grn_operator op)``

      * It adds a record into the table of result sets.
      * ``grn_ii_posting_add_float`` is deprecated from 10.0.3. We use ``grn_rset_add_records()`` instead.

    * ``grn_result_set_add_table(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_hash *result_set, grn_obj *table, double score, grn_operator op)``

      * It adds a table into the result sets.

    * It's for bulk result set insert. It's faster than inserting records by ``grn_ii_posting_add()``.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a crash bug if the modules (tokenizers, normalizers, and token filters) are used at the same time from multiple threads.

* Fixed precision of ``Float32`` value when it outputted.

  * The precision of it changes to  8-digit to 7-digit from 10.0.3.

* Fixed a bug that Groonga used the wrong cache when the query that just the parameters of dynamic column different was executed. [GitHub#1102 patched by naoa]

.. _release-10-0-2:

Release 10.0.2 - 2020-04-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Added support for ``uvector`` for ``time_classify_*`` functions. [GitHub#1089][Patched by naoa]

  * ``uvector`` is a vector that size of elements for vector are fixed.
  * For example, a vector that has values of Time type as elements is a ``uvector``.

* Improve sort performance if sort key that can't refer value with zero-copy is mixed.

  * Some sort key (e.g. ``_score``) values can't be referred with zero-copy.
  * If there is at least one sort key that can't be referable is included, all sort keys are copied before.
  * With this change, we just copy sort keys that can't be referred. Referable sort keys are just referred without a copy.
  * However, this change may have performance regression when all sort keys are referable.

* Added support for loading weight vector as a JSON string.

  * We can load weight vector as a JSON string as below example.

         {"tags": "{\"fruit\": 10, \"apple\": 100}"},
         {"tags": "{\"fruit\": 200}"}
       ]

* Added support for ``Float32`` type.

  * Groonga already has a ``Float`` type. However, it is double precision floating point number. Therefore if we only use single precision floating point number, it is not efficient.
  * We can select more suitable type by adding a ``Float32`` type.

* Added following APIs

  * ``grn_obj_unref(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_obj *obj)``

    * This API is only used on the reference count mode (The reference count mode is a state of ``GRN_ENABLE_REFERENCE_COUNT=yes``.).

      * It calls ``grn_obj_unlink()`` only on the reference count mode. It doesn't do anything except when the reference count mode.
      * We useful it when we need only call ``grn_obj_unlink()`` on the referece count mode.
      * Because as the following example, we don't write condition that whether the reference count mode or not.

        * The example if we don't use ``grn_obj_unref()``.

          .. code-block::

             if (grn_enable_reference_count) {
              grn_obj_unlink(ctx, obj);
             }

        * The example if we use ``grn_obj_unref()``.

          .. code-block::

             grn_obj_ubref(ctx, obj);

  * ``grn_get_version_major(void)``
  * ``grn_get_version_minor(void)``
  * ``grn_get_version_micro(void)``

    * They return Groonga's major, minor, and micor version numbers as a ``uint32_t``.

  * ``grn_posting_get_record_id(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``
  * ``grn_posting_get_section_id(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``
  * ``grn_posting_get_position(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``
  * ``grn_posting_get_tf(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``
  * ``grn_posting_get_weight(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``
  * ``grn_posting_get_weight_float(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``
  * ``grn_posting_get_rest(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``

    * They return information on the posting list.
    * These APIs return value as a ``uint32_t`` except ``grn_posting_get_weight_float``.
    * ``grn_posting_get_weight_float`` returns value as a ``float``.

    * ``grn_posting_get_section_id(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``

      * Section id is the internal representation of the column name.
      * If column name store in posting list as a string, it is a large amount of information and it use waste capacity.
      * Therefore, Groonga compresses the amount of information and use storage capacity is small by storing column name in the posting list as a number called section id.

    * ``grn_posting_get_tf(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``

      * ``tf`` of ``grn_posting_get_tf`` is Term Frequency score.

    * ``grn_posting_get_weight_float(grn_ctx *ctx, grn_posting *posting)``

      * It returns weight of token as a ``float``.
      * We suggest using this API when we get a weight of token after this.

        * Because we modify the internal representation of the weight from ``uint32_t`` to ``float`` in the near future.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that Groonga for 32bit on GNU/Linux may crash.

* Fixed a bug that unrelated column value may be cleared. [GtiHub#1087][Reported by sutamin]

* Fixed a memory leak when we dumped records with ``dump`` command.

* Fixed a memory leak when we specified invalid value into ``output_columns``.

* Fixed a memory leak when we executed ``snippet`` function.

* Fixed a memory leak when we filled the below conditions.

  * If we used dynamic columns on the ``initial`` stage.
  * If we used ``slices`` argument with ``select`` command.

* Fixed a memory leak when we deleted tables with ``logical_table_remove``.

* Fixed a memory leak when we use the reference count mode.

  * The reference count mode is a ``GRN_ENABLE_REFERENCE_COUNT=yes`` state.
  * This mode is experimental. Performance may degrade by this mode.

* Fixed a bug that Groonga too much unlink ``_key`` accessor when we load data for apache arrow format.

.. _release-10-0-1:

Release 10.0.1 - 2020-03-30
---------------------------

We have been released Groonga 10.0.1.
Because Ubuntu and Windows(VC++ version) package in Groonga 10.0.0 were mistaken.

If we have already used Groonga 10.0.0 for CentOS, Debian, Windows(MinGW version), no problem with continued use it.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Added a missing runtime(vcruntime140_1.dll) in package for Windows VC++ version.

.. _release-10-0-0:

Release 10.0.0 - 2020-03-29
---------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.17.9.

* [httpd] Added support for specifying output type as an extension.

  * For example, we can write ``load.json`` instead of ``load?output_type=json``.

* [:doc:`reference/log`] Outputted a path of opened or closed file into a log of dump level on Linux.

* [:doc:`reference/log`] Outputted a path of closed file into a log of debug level on Windows.  

* Added following API and macros

  * ``grn_timeval_from_double(grn_ctx, double)``

    * This API converts ``double`` type to ``grn_timeval`` type.
    * It returns value of ``grn_timeval`` type.

  * ``GRN_TIMEVAL_TO_NSEC(timeval)``

    * This macro converts value of ``grn_timeval`` type to nanosecond as the value of ``uint64_t`` type.

  * ``GRN_TIME_USEC_TO_SEC(usec)``

    * This macro converts microsecond to second.

* Deprecated the following macro.

  * ``GRN_OBJ_FORMAT_FIN(grn_ctx, grn_obj_format)``

    * We ``grn_obj_format_fin(grn_ctx, grn_obj_format)`` use instead since 10.0.0.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_range_filter`],[:doc:`reference/commands/dump`] Added support for stream output.

  * This feature requires ``command_version 3`` or later. The header content is outputted after the body content.
  * Currently, this feature support only ``dump`` and ``logical_range_filter``.
  * ``logical_range_filter`` always returns the output as a stream on ``command_version 3`` or later.
  * This feature has the following limitations.

    * -1 is only allowed for negative ``limit``
    * MessagePack output isn't supported

  * We a little changed the response contents of JSON by this modify.

    * The key order differs from before versions as below.

      * The key order in before versions.

        .. code-block::

          {
            "header": {...},
            "body": {...}
          }

      * The key order in this version(10.0.0).

        .. code-block::

          {
            "body": {...},
            "header": {...}
          }

  * Disabled caches of ``dump`` and ``logical_range_filter`` when they execute on ``command_version 3``.

    * Because of ``dump`` and ``logical_range_filter`` on ``command_version 3`` returns stream since 10.0.0, Groonga can not cache the whole response.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_range_filter`] Added support for outputting response as Apache Arrow format.

  * Supported data type as below.

    * ``UInt8``
    * ``Int8``
    * ``UInt16``
    * ``Int16``
    * ``UInt32``
    * ``Int32``
    * ``UInt64``
    * ``Int64``
    * ``Time``
    * ``ShortText``
    * ``Text``
    * ``LongText``
    * ``Vector`` of ``Int32``
    * ``Reference vector``

* Supported Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa).

* Dropped Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo).

  * Because this version has been EOL.

.. _release-9-1-2:

Release 9.1.2 - 2020-01-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [tools] Added a script for copying only files of specify tables or columns.

  * This script name is copy-related-files.rb.
  * This script is useful if we want to extract specifying tables or columns from a huge database.
  * Related files of specific tables or columns may need for reproducing fault.
  * If we difficult to offer a database whole, we can extract related files of target tables or columns by this tool. 

* [:doc:`reference/commands/shutdown`] Accept ``/d/shutdown?mode=immediate`` immediately even when all threads are used.

  * This feature can only use on the Groonga HTTP server.

* Unused objects free immediately by using ``GRN_ENABLE_REFERENCE_COUNT=yes``.

  * This feature is experimental. Performance degrade by this feature.
  * If we load to span many tables, we can expect to keep in the usage of memory by this feature.

* [:doc:`/install/centos`] We prepare ``groonga-release`` by version.

  * Note that the little modification how to install.

* [:doc:`/install/debian`] We use ``groonga-archive-keyring`` for adding the Groonga apt repository.

  * We can easy to add the Groonga apt repository to our system by this improvement.
  * ``groonga-archive-keyring`` includes all information for using the Groonga apt repository. Thus, we need not be conscious of changing of repository information or PGP key by installing this package.
  * ``groonga-archive-keyring`` is deb package. Thus, we can easy to update by ``apt update``.

.. _release-9-1-1:

Release 9.1.1 - 2020-01-07
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added support for Apache Arrow format data.

  * If we use Apache Arrow format data, we may reduce parse cost. Therefore, data might be loading faster than other formats.
  * Groonga can also directly input data for Apache Arrow format from other data analysis systems by this improvement.
  * However, Apache Arrow format can use in the HTTP interface only. We can't use it in the command line interface.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added how to load Apache Arrow format data in the document.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Improve error message.

  * Response of ``load`` command includes error message also.
  * If we faile data load, Groonga output error detail of ``load`` command by this Improvement.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.17.7.

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-server-http`] Added support for sending command parameters by body of HTTP request.

  * We must set ``application/x-www-form-urlencoded`` to ``Content-Type`` for this case.

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-server-http`] Added how to use HTTP POST in the document.

.. _release-9-1-0:

Release 9.1.0 - 2019-11-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Improved the performance of the "&&" operation.

  * For example, the performance of condition expression such as the following is increased.

  * ( A || B ) && ( C || D ) && ( E || F) ...

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers/token_mecab`] Added a new option ``use_base_form``

  * We can search using the base form of a token by this option.

  * For example, if we search "支えた" using this option, "支える" is hit also.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fix a bug that when the accessor is index, performance decreases.

  * For example, it occurs with the query include the following conditions.

    * ``accessor @ query``

    * ``accessor == query``

* Fixed a bug the estimated size of a search result was overflow when the buffer is big enough. [PGroonga#GitHub#115][Reported by Albert Song]

* Improved a test(1) portability. [GitHub#1065][Patched by OBATA Akio]

* Added missing tools.

  * Because ``index-column-diff-all.sh`` and ``object-inspect-all.sh`` had not bundled in before version.

* [:doc:`reference/commands/status`] Added that the number of current jobs in the ``status`` command response.

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-httpd`] Added support for ``$request_time`` in log.

  * In the previous version, even if we specified the ``$request_time`` in the ``log_format`` directive, it was always 0.00.
  * If we specify the ``$request_time``, groonga-httpd output the correct time form this version.

* [:doc:`reference/executables/groonga-httpd`] Added how to set the ``$request_time`` in the document.

* Supported Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan Ermine)

* Supported CentOS 8 (experimental)

  * The package for CentOS 8 can't use a part of features(e.g. we can't use ``TokenMecab`` and can't cast to int32 vector from JSON string) for lacking some packages for development.

* [tools] Added a script for executing the ``index_column_diff`` command simply.

  * This script name is index-column-diff-all.sh.
  * This script extracts index columns form Groonga's database and execute the ``index_column_diff`` command to them.

* [tools] Added a script for executing ``object_inspect`` against

.. _release-9-0-8:

Release 9.0.8 - 2019-09-27
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/log_reopen`] Added a supplementary explanation when we use ``groonga-httpd`` with 2 or more workers.

* Improved that Groonga ignores the index being built.

  * We can get correct search results even if the index is under construction.

  * However, the search is slow because of Groonga out of use the index to search in this case.

* [:doc:`reference/functions/sub_filter`] Added a feature that ``sub_filter`` executes a sequential search when Groonga is building indexes for the target column or the target column hasn't indexed.

  * ``sub_filter`` was an error if the above situation in before
    version.
  * From this version, ``sub_filter`` returns search results if the above situation.
  * However if the above situation, ``sub_filter`` is slow. Because it is executed as a sequential search.

* [:doc:`/install/centos`] Dropped 32-bit package support on CentOS 6.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`reference/commands/logical_range_filter`] Fixed a bug that exception about closing the same object twice occurs when we have enough records and the number of records that unmatch filter search criteria is more than the estimated value of it.

.. _release-8-0-7:

Release 8.0.7 - 2018-09-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`][TokenMecab] support outputting metadata of Mecab.

  * Added new option ``include_class`` for ``TokenMecab``.

    This option outputs ``class`` and ``subclass`` in Mecab's metadata.

  * Added new option ``include_reading`` for ``TokenMecab``.

    This option outputs ``reading`` in Mecab's metadata.

  * Added new option ``include_form`` for ``TokenMecab``.

    This option outputs ``inflected_type``, ``inflected_form`` and ``base_form`` in Mecab's metadata.

  * Added new option ``use_reading`` for ``TokenMecab``.

    This option supports a search by kana.

    This option is useful for countermeasure of orthographical variants because it searches with kana.

* [plugin] Groonga now can grab plugins from multiple directories.

  You can specify multiple directories to ``GRN_PLUGINS_PATH`` separated with ":" on non Windows, ";" on Windows.

  ``GRN_PLUGINS_PATH`` has high priority than the existing ``GRN_PLUGINS_DIR``.
  Currently, this option is not supported Windows.

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`][TokenNgram] Added new option ``unify_alphabet`` for ``TokenNgram``.

  If we use ``unify_alphabet`` as ``false``, ``TokenNgram`` uses bigram tokenize method for ASCII character.

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`][TokenNgram] Added new option ``unify_symbol`` for ``TokenNgram``.

  ``TokenNgram("unify_symbol", false)`` is same behavior of ``TokenBigramSplitSymbol``.

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`][TokenNgram] Added new option ``unify_digit`` for ``TokenNgram``.

  If we use ``unify_digit`` as ``false``, If we set false, ``TokenNgram`` uses bigram tokenize method for digits.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.15.4.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed wrong score calculations on some cases.

  * It's caused when adding, multiplication or division numeric to a bool value.
  * It's caused when comparing a scalar and vector columns using ``!=`` or ``==``.

.. _release-8-0-6:

Release 8.0.6 - 2018-08-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`][TokenMecab] add ``chunked_tokenize`` and ``chunk_size_threshold`` options.

* [optimizer] support estimation for query family expressions.
  It will generate more effective execution plan with query family expressions such as ``column @ query``, ``column @~ pattern`` and so on.

* [optimizer] plug-in -> built-in
  It's disabled by default for now.
  We can enable it by defining ``GRN_EXPR_OPTIMIZE=yes`` environment variable or using ``expression_rewriters`` table as before.

* Enable sequential search for enough filtered case by default.
  If the current result is enough filtered, sequential search is faster than index search.
  If the current result has only 1% records of all records in a table and less than 1000 records, sequential search is used even when index search is available.

  Cullently, this optimization is applied when search by ``==``, ``>``, ``<``, ``>=``, or ``<=``.

  When a key of a table that has columns specified by the filter is ``ShortText``, you must set ``NormalizerAuto`` to normalizer of the table to apply this optimization.

  You can disable this feature by ``GRN_TABLE_SELECT_ENOUGH_FILTERED_RATIO=0.0`` environment variable.

* [load] improve error message.
  Table name is included.

* [load] add ``lock_table`` option.
  If ``--lock_table yes`` is specified, ``load`` locks the target table while updating columns and applying ``--each``.
  This option avoids ``load`` and ``delete`` conflicts but it'll reduce load performance.

* [vector_find] avoid to crash with unsupported modes

Fixes
^^^^^

* [index] fix a bug that offline index construction for text vector with ``HASH_KEY``.
  It creates index with invalid section ID.

* Fix a bug that ``--match_columns 'index[0] || index[9]'`` uses wrong section.

* [highlighter] fix a wrong highlight bug
  It's caused when lexicon is hash table and keyword is less than N of N-gram.

* [mruby] fix a bug that real error is hidden.
  mruby doesn't support error propagation by no argument raise.
  https://github.com/mruby/mruby/issues/290

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`][TokenNgram loose]: fix a not found bug when query has only loose types.
  ``highlight_html()`` with lexicon was also broken.

* Fix a bug that text->number cast ignores trailing garbage.
  "0garbage" should be cast error.

* Fix an optimization bug for ``reference_column >= 'key_value'`` case

  * 1: Full text search index for vector column must have ``WITH_SECTION`` flag.
    (Note that TokenDelmit with ``WITH_POSITION`` without ``WITH_SECTION`` is permitted.
    It's useful pattern for tag search.)

  * 2: Full text search index for vector column must not be multi column index.

    * ``unify_hyphen_and_prolonged_sound_mark`` : The characters like hyphen
      and prolonged sound mark are regarded as the hyphen.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`] Support output of tokenizer's options and
  normalizer's options. Groonga 8.0.1 and earlier versions cannot import dump
  including options for tokenizers or normalizers generated by Groonga 8.0.2
  or later, and it will occurs error due to unsupported information.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/schema`] Support output of tokenizer's options and
  normalizer's options. Groonga 8.0.1 and earlier versions cannot import schema
  including options for tokenizers or normalizers generated by Groonga 8.0.2
  or later, and it will occurs error due to unsupported information.

* Supported Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver)

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that unexpected record is matched with space only query.
  [groonga-dev,04609][Reported by satouyuzh]

* Fixed a bug that wrong scorer may be used.
  It's caused when multiple scorers are used as below.
  ``--match_columns 'title || scorer_tf_at_most(content, 2.0)'``.

* Fixed a bug that it may also take so much time to change "thread_limit".

.. _release-8-0-1:

Release 8.0.1 - 2018-03-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/log`] Show ``filter`` conditions in query log.
  It's disabled by default. To enable it, you need to set an environment
  variable ``GRN_QUERY_LOG_SHOW_CONDITION=yes``.

* Install ``*.pdb`` into the directory where ``*.dll`` and ``*.exe``
  are installed.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_count`] Support ``filtered``
  stage dynamic columns.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_count`]
  [:ref:`logical-count-post-filter`] Added a new filter timing.
  It's executed after ``filtered`` stage columns are generated.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_select`]
  [:ref:`logical-select-post-filter`] Added a new filter timing.
  It's executed after ``filtered`` stage columns are generated.

* Support LZ4/Zstd/zlib compression for vector data.

* Support alias to accessor such as ``_key``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_range_filter`] Optimize
  window function for large result set.
  If we find enough matched records, we don't apply window function
  to the remaining windows.

  TODO: Disable this optimization for small result set if its overhead
  is not negligible. The overhead is not evaluated yet.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Added ``match_escalation`` parameter.
  You can force to enable match escalation by ``--match_escalation yes``.
  It's stronger than ``--match_escalation_threshold 99999....999``
  because ``--match_escalation yes`` also works with
  ``SOME_CONDITIONS && column @ 'query'``.
  ``--match_escalation_threshold`` isn't used in this case.

  The default is ``--match_escalation auto``. It doesn't change the
  current behavior.

  You can disable match escalation by ``--match_escalation no``.
  It's the same as ``--match_escalation_threshold -1``.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.13.10.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed memory leak that occurs when a prefix query doesn't match any token.
  [GitHub#820][Patch by Naoya Murakami]

* Fixed a bug that a cache for different databases is used when
  multiple databases are opened in the same process.

* Fixed a bug that a wrong index is constructed.
  This occurs only when the source of a column is a vector column and
  ``WITH_SECTION`` isn't specified.

* Fixed a bug that a constant value can overflow or underflow in
  comparison (>,>=,<,<=,==,!=).

Thanks

.. _release-8-0-0:

Release 8.0.0 - 2018-02-09
--------------------------

This is a major version up! But It keeps backward compatibility.
You can upgrade to 8.0.0 without rebuilding database.

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Added ``--drilldown_adjuster`` and
  ``--drilldowns[LABEL].adjuster``.
  You can adjust score against result of drilldown.

* [:ref:`online-index-construction`] Changed environment variable name
  ``GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_ENABLE`` to ``GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_THRESHOLD``.

  ``GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_THRESHOLD=0 == GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_ENABLE=no``.
  ``GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_THRESHOLD=-1`` uses
  ``ii->chunk->max_map_seg / 2`` as threshold.
  ``GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_THRESHOLD > 0`` uses
  ``MIN(ii->chunk->max_map_seg / 2, GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_THRESHOLD)``
  as threshold.
  ``GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_THRESHOLD=32`` is the default.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`] Accept ``between()`` without borders.
  If the number of arguments passed to ``between()`` is 3, the 2nd and 3rd
  arguments are handled as the inclusive edges. [GitHub#685]

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a memory leak for normal hash table.
  [GitHub:mroonga/mroonga#190][Reported by fuku1]

* Fix a memory leak for normal array.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Stopped to cache when ``output_columns``
  uses not stable function.

* [Windows] Fixed wrong value report on ``WSASend`` error.

Thanks

.. _release-7-1-1:

Release 7.1.1 - 2018-01-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Dropped Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) support.
  It has reached EOL at Jan 13, 2018.

* Added quorum match support.
  You can use quorum match in both script syntax and query syntax.
  [groonga-talk,385][Suggested by 付超群]

  TODO: Add documents for quorum match syntax and link to them.

* Added custom similarity threshold support in script syntax.
  You can use custom similarity threshold in script syntax.

  TODO: Add document for the syntax and link to it.

* [:doc:`/reference/executables/grndb`][:ref:`grndb-force-lock-clear`]
  Added ``--force-lock-clear`` option. With this option, ``grndb``
  forces to clear locks of database, tables and data columns. You can
  use your database again even if locks are remained in database,
  tables and data columns.

  But this option very risky. Normally, you should not use it. If your
  database is broken, your database is still broken. This option just
  ignores locks.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Added surrogate pairs support in
  escape syntax. For example, ``\uD83C\uDF7A`` is processed as ``🍺``.

* [Windows] Changed to use sparse file on Windows. It reduces disk
  space and there are no performance demerit.

* [:ref:`online-index-construction`] Added
  ``GRN_II_REDUCE_EXPIRE_THRESHOLD`` environment variable to control
  when memory maps are expired in index column. It's ``-1`` by
  default. It means that expire timing is depends on index column
  size. If index column is smaller, expire timing is more. If index
  column is larger, expire timing is less.

  You can use the previous behavior by ``0``. It means that Groonga
  always tries to expire.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_range_filter`]
  [:ref:`logical-range-filter-post-filter`] Added a new filter timing.
  It's executed after ``filtered`` stage generated columns are generated.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Reduced resource usage for creating index for reference vector.
  [GitHub#806][Reported by Naoya Murakami]

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/table_create`] Fixed a bug that a table
  is created even when ``token_filters`` is invalid.
  [GitHub#266]

.. _release-7-1-0:

Release 7.1.0 - 2017-12-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Improved the ``load``'s
  query-log format.
  Added detail below items in the ``load``'s query-log.

    * outputs number of loaded records.
    * outputs number of error records and columns.
    * outputs number of total records.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_count`] Improved the
  ``logical_count``'s query-log format.
  Added detail below items in the ``logical_count``'s query-log.

    * outputs number of count.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_select`] Improve the
  ``logical_select``'s query-log format.
  Added detail below items in the ``logical_select``'s query-log.

    * log N outputs.
    * outputs plain drilldown.
    * outputs labeled drilldown.
    * outputs selected in each shard.
    * use "[...]" for target information.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/delete`] Improved the ``delete``'s
  query-log format.
  Added detail below items in the ``delete``'s query-log.

    * outputs number of deleted and error records.
    * outputs number of rest number of records.

* [:doc:`/reference/executables/groonga-server-http`] The server
  executed by ``groonga -s`` ensure stopping by C-c.

* Used ``NaN`` and ``Infinity``, ``-Infinity`` instead of Lisp
  representations(``#<nan>`` and  ``#i1/0``, ``#-i1/0``).

* Supported vector for drilldown calc target.

* Partially supported keyword extraction from regexp search.
  It enables ``highlight_html`` and ``snippet_html`` for regexp search.
  [GitHub#787][Reported by takagi01]

* [bulk] Reduced the number of ``realloc()``.
  ``grn_bulk_*()`` API supports it.

  It improves performance for large output case on Windows.
  For example, it causes 100x faster for 100MB over output.

  Because ``realloc()`` is heavy on Windows.

* Enabled ``GRN_II_OVERLAP_TOKEN_SKIP_ENABLE`` only when its value is "yes".

* Deprecated ``GRN_NGRAM_TOKENIZER_REMOVE_BLANK_DISABLE``.
  Use ``GRN_NGRAM_TOKENIZER_REMOVE_BLANK_ENABLE=no`` instead.

* Added new function ``index_column_source_records``.
  It gets source records of index column.[Patch by Naoya Murakami]

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Supported negative "offset" for "offset + size - limit" >= 0

* Added ``grn_column_cache``.
  It'll improve performance for getter of fixed size column value.

* [:doc:`/reference/executables/groonga`] Added ``--listen-backlog option``.
  You can customize ``listen(2)``'s backlog by this option.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.13.8.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a memory leak in ``highlight_full``

* Fixed a crash bug by early unlink
  It's not caused by instruction in ``grn_expr_parse()`` but it's caused when
  libgroonga user such as Mroonga uses the following instructions:

    1. ``grn_expr_append_const("_id")``
    2. ``grn_expr_append_op(GRN_OP_GET_VALUE)``

.. _release-7-0-9:

Release 7.0.9 - 2017-11-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Supported newer version of Apache Arrow. In this release, 0.8.0 or
  later is required for Apache Arrow support.

* [sharding] Added new API for dynamic columns.

  * Groonga::LabeledArguments

* [sharding] Added convenient ``Table#select_all`` method.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_range_filter`] Supported dynamic
  columns. Note that ``initial`` and ``filtered`` stage are only
  supported.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_range_filter`] Added documentation
  about ``cache`` parameter and dynamic columns.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_count`] Supported dynamic
  columns. Note that ``initial`` stage is only supported.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_count`] Added documentation about
  named parameters.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Supported ``--match_columns _key``
  without index.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/in_values`] Supported to specify more
  than 126 values. [GitHub#760] [GitHub#781] [groonga-dev,04449]
  [Reported by Murata Satoshi]

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.13.7.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [httpd] Fixed build error when old Groonga is already installed.
  [GitHub#775] [Reported by myamanishi3]

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/in_values`] Fixed a bug that
  ``in_values`` with too many arguments can cause a crash. This bug is
  found during supporting more than 126 values. [GitHub#780]

* [cmake] Fixed LZ4 and MessagePack detection. [Reported by Sergei
  Golubchik]

* [:ref:`offline-index-construction`] Fixed a bug that offline index
  construction for vector column consumes unnecessary resources. If
  you have a log of elements in one vector column and many records,
  Groonga will crash.

.. _release-7-0-8:

Release 7.0.8 - 2017-10-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [windows] Supported backtrace on crash.
  This feature not only function call history but also source filename
  and number of lines can be displayed as much as possible.
  This feature makes problem solving easier.

* Supported ``( )`` (empty block) only query (``--query "( )"``) for
  ``QUERY_NO_SYNTAX_ERROR``. In the previous version, it caused an
  error. [GitHub#767]

* Supported ``(+)`` (only and block) only query (``--query "(+)"``)
  for ``QUERY_NO_SYNTAX_ERROR``. In the previous version, it caused an
  error. [GitHub#767]

* Supported ``~foo`` (starting with "~") query (``--query "~y"``) for
  ``QUERY_NO_SYNTAX_ERROR``. In the previous version, it caused an
  error. [GitHub#767]

* Modified log level of ``expired`` from ``info`` to ``debug``.
  ``2017-10-29 14:05:34.123456|i| <0000000012345678:0> expired
  i=000000000B123456 max=10 (2/2)`` This message is logged when memory
  mapped area for index is unmapped.  Thus, this log message is useful
  information for debugging, in other words, as it is unnecessary
  information in normal operation, we changed log level from ``info``
  to ``debug``.

* Supported Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark)

Fixes
^^^^^

* [dat] Fixed a bug that large file is created unexpectedly in the
  worst case during database expansion process. This bug may occurs
  when you create/delete index columns so frequently. In 7.0.7
  release, a related bug was fixed - "``table_create`` command fails
  when there are many deleted keys", but it turns out that it is not
  enough in the worst case.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_select`] Fixed a bug that when
  ``offset`` and ``limit`` were applied to multiple shards at the same
  time, there is a case that it returns a fewer number of records
  unexpectedly.

.. _release-7-0-7:

Release 7.0.7 - 2017-09-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Supported ``+`` only query (``--query "+"``) for
  ``QUERY_NO_SYNTAX_ERROR``. In the previous version, it caused an
  error.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.13.5.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`] Added the default argument values
  to the syntax section.

* [:doc:`/reference/command/command_version`] Supported ``--default-command-version 3``.

* Supported caching select result with function call. Now, most of
  existing functions supports this feature. There are two exception,
  when ``now()`` and ``rand()`` are used in query, select result will
  not cached. Because of this default behavior change, new APIs are
  introduced.

  * ``grn_proc_set_is_stable()``
  * ``grn_proc_is_stable()``

  Note that if you add a new function that may return different result
  with the same argument, you must call ``grn_proc_is_stable(ctx,
  proc, GRN_FALSE)``.  If you don't call it, select result with the
  function call is cached and is wrong result for multiple requests.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [windows] Fixed to clean up file handle correctly on failure when
  ``database_unmap`` is executed. There is a case that critical
  section is not initialized when request is canceled before executing
  ``database_unmap``. In such a case, it caused a crach bug.

* [:doc:`/reference/tokenizers`] Fixed document for wrong tokenizer
  names. It should be ``TokenBigramIgnoreBlankSplitSymbolAlpha`` and
  ``TokenBigramIgnoreBlankSplitSymbolAlphaDigit``.

* Changed not to keep created empty file on error.

  In the previous versions, there is a case that empty file keeps
  remain on error.

  Here is the senario to reproduce:

    1. creating new file by grn_fileinfo_open succeeds
    2. mapping file by DO_MAP() is failed

  In such a case, it causes an another error such as
  "already file exists" because of the file which
  isn't under control. so these file should be removed during
  cleanup process.

* Fixed a bug that Groonga may be crashed when search process is
  executed during executing many updates in a short time.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/table_create`] Fixed a bug that
  ``table_create`` failed when there are many deleted keys.

.. _release-7-0-6:

Release 7.0.6 - 2017-08-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Supported prefix match search using multiple
  indexes. (e.g. ``--query "Foo*" --match_columns
  "TITLE_INDEX_COLUMN||BODY_INDEX_COLUMN"``).

* [:doc:`/reference/window_functions/window_count`] Supported
  ``window_count`` function to add count data to result set. It is
  useful to analyze or filter additionally.

* Added the following API

  * ``grn_obj_get_disk_usage():``
  * ``GRN_EXPR_QUERY_NO_SYNTAX_ERROR``
  * ``grn_expr_syntax_expand_query_by_table()``
  * ``grn_table_find_reference_object()``

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/object_inspect`] Supported to show disk
  usage about specified object.

* Supported falling back query parse feature. It is enabled when
  ``QUERY_NO_SYNTAX_ERROR`` flag is set to ``query_flags``. (this
  feature is disabled by default). If this flag is set, query never
  causes syntax error. For example, "A +" is parsed and escaped
  automatically into "A \+". This behavior is useful when application
  uses user input directly and doesn't want to show syntax error to
  user and in log.

* Supported to adjust score for term in query. ">", "<", and "~"
  operators are supported. For example, ">Groonga" increments score of
  "Groonga", "<Groonga" decrements score of "Groonga". "~Groonga"
  decreases score of matched document in the current search
  result. "~" operator doesn't change search result itself.

* Improved performance to remove table. ``thread_limit=1`` is not
  needed for it. The process about checking referenced table existence
  is done without opening objects. As a result, performance is
  improved.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.13.4.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`] Fixed a bug that the 7-th unnamed
  parameter for `--sort_hash_table` option is ignored.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/schema`] Fixed a typo in command line
  parameter name. It should be `source` instead of `sources`.
  [groonga-dev,04449] [Reported by murata satoshi]

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/ruby_eval`] Fixed crash when ruby_eval
  returned syntax error. [GitHub#751] [Patch by ryo-pinus]

  redundant empty string ``""`` on error. [GitHub#730]

* [functions/time] Supported to show error message when division by
  zero was happened. [GitHub#733] [Patch by Naoya Murakami]

* [windows] Changed to map ``ERROR_NO_SYSTEM_RESOURCES`` to
  ``GRN_RESOURCE_TEMPORARILY_UNAVAILABLE``. In the previous versions,
  it returns ``rc=-1`` as a result code. It is not helpful to
  investigate what actually happened. With this fix, it returns
  ``rc=-12``.

* [functions/min][functions/max] Supported vector column. Now you need
  not to care scalar column or vector column to use. [GitHub#735]
  [Patch by Naoya Murakami]

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`] Supported ``--sort_hash_table``
  option to sort by ``_key`` for hash table. Specify
  ``--sort_hash_table yes`` to use it.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/between`] Supported to specify index
  column. [GitHub#740] [Patch by Naoya Murakami]

* [load] Supported Apache Arrow 0.5.0 or later.

* [:doc:`/troubleshooting/how_to_analyze_error_message`]
  Added howto article to analyze error message in Groonga.

* [:doc:`/install/debian`] Updated required package list to
  build from source.

* [:doc:`/install/ubuntu`] Dropped Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety
  Yak) support. It has reached EOL at July 20, 2017.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed to construct correct fulltext indexes against vector column
  which type belongs to text family (```ShortText`` and so on). This
  fix resolves that fulltext search doesn't work well against text
  vector column after updating indexes. [GitHub#494]

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/thread_limit`] Fixed a bug that deadlock
  occurs when thread_limit?max=1 is requested at once.

* [:doc:`/reference/executables/groonga-httpd`] Fixed a mismatch path
  of pid file between default one and restart command assumed. This
  mismatch blocked restarting groonga-httpd. [GitHub#743] [Reported by
  sozaki]

  customized build. This bug only affects when rebuilding Groonga SRPM
  with customized ``additional_configure_options`` parameter in spec
  file.

* Fixed missing null check for ``grn_table_setoperation()``. There is a
  possibility of crash bug when indexes are broken. [GitHub#699]

.. _release-7-0-1:

Release 7.0.1 - 2017-03-29
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Exported the following API

  * grn_ii_cursor_next_pos()
  * grn_table_apply_expr()
  * grn_obj_is_data_column()
  * grn_obj_is_expr()
  * grn_obj_is_scalar_column()

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`] Supported to dump weight reference
  vector.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Supported to load
  ``array<object>`` style weight vector column. The example of
  ``array<object>`` style is: ``[{"key1": weight1}, {"key2":
  weight2}]``.

* Supported to search ``!(XXX OPERATOR VALUE)`` by index. Supported
  operator is not only ``>`` but also ``>=``, ``<``, ``<=``, ``==``
  and ``!=``.

* Supported index search for "!(column == CONSTANT)". The example in
  this case is: ``!(column == 29)`` and so on.

* Supported more "!" optimization in the following patterns.

  * ``!(column @ "X") && (column @ "Y")``
  * ``(column @ "Y") && !(column @ "X")``
  * ``(column @ "Y") &! !(column @ "X")``

* Supported to search ``XXX || !(column @ "xxx")`` by index.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/dump`] Changed to use ``'{"x": 1, "y":
  2}'`` style for not referenced weight vector. This change doesn't
  affect to old Groonga because it already supports one.

* [experimental] Supported ``GRN_ORDER_BY_ESTIMATED_SIZE_ENABLE``
  environment variable. This variable controls whether query
  optimization which is based on estimated size is applied or not.
  This feature is disabled by default. Set
  ``GRN_ORDER_BY_ESTIMATED_SIZE_ENABLE=yes`` if you want to try it.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Added query log for ``columns``,
  ``drilldown`` evaluation.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Changed query log format for
  ``drilldown``. This is backward incompatible change, but it only
  affects users who convert query log by own programs.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/table_remove`] Reduced temporary memory
  usage. It's enabled when the number of max threads is 0.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] ``columns[LABEL](N)`` is used
  for query log format instead of ``columns(N)[LABEL]``..

* [:doc:`/tutorial/query_expansion`] Updated example to use vector
  column because it is recommended way. [Reported by Gurunavi, Inc]

* Supported to detect canceled request while locking. It fixes the
  problem that ``request_cancel`` is ignored unexpectedly while locking.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_select`] Supported ``initial``
  and ``filtered`` stage dynamic columns. The examples are:
  ``--columns[LABEL].stage initial`` or ``--columns[LABEL].stage
  filtered``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_select`] Supported
  ``match_columns``, ``query`` and ``drilldown_filter`` option.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/highlight_html`] Supported similar
  search.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_select`] Supported ``initial``
  and stage dynamic columns in labeled drilldown. The example is:
  ``--drilldowns[LABEL].stage initial``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_select`] Supported window
  function in dynamic column.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Added documentation about
  dynamic columns.

* [:doc:`/reference/window_function`] Added section about window
  functions.

* [:doc:`/install/centos`] Dropped CentOS 5 support because of EOL.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.11.12

* Supported to disable AND match optimization by environment variable.
  You can disable this feature by
  ``GRN_TABLE_SELECT_AND_MIN_SKIP_ENABLE=no``. This feature is enable
  by default.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/vector_new`] Added a new function to
  create a new vector.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Added documentation about
  ``drilldown_filter``.

Fixes
^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/lock_clear`] Fixed a crash bug against
  temporary database.

* Fixed a problem that dynamically updated index size was increased
  for natural language since Grooonga 6.1.4.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Fixed a bug that "A && B.C @ X"
  may not return records that should be matched.

* Fixed a conflict with ``grn_io_flush()`` and
  ``grn_io_expire()``. Without this change, if ``io_flush`` and ``load``
  command are executed simultaneously in specific timing, it causes a
  crash bug by access violation.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/logical_table_remove`] Fixed a crash bug
  when the max number of threads is 1.

.. _release-7-0-0:

Release 7.0.0 - 2017-02-09
--------------------------

Improvements
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/in_values`] Supported sequential search
  for reference vector column. [Patch by Naoya Murakami] [GitHub#629]

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Changed to report error instead
  of ignoring on invalid ``drilldown[LABEL].sort_keys``.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/select`] Removed needless metadata
  updates on DB. It reduces the case that database lock remains
  even though ``select`` command is executed. [Reported by aomi-n]

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/lock_clear`] Changed to clear metadata lock
  by lock_clear against DB.

* [:doc:`/install/centos`] Enabled EPEL by default to install Groonga
  on Amazon Linux.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/query`] Supported "@X" style in script
  syntax for prefix("@^"), suffix("@$"), regexp("@^") search.

* [:doc:`/reference/functions/query`] Added documentation about
  available list of mode. The default mode is ``MATCH`` ("@") mode
  which executes full text search.

* [rpm][centos] Supported groonga-token-filter-stem package which
  provides stemming feature by ``TokenFilterStem`` token filter on
  CentOS 7. [GitHub#633] [Reported by Tim Bellefleur]

* [:doc:`/reference/window_functions/window_record_number`] Marked
  ``record_number`` as deprecated. Use ``window_record_number``
  instead. ``record_number`` is still available for backward
  compatibility.

* [:doc:`/reference/window_functions/window_sum`] Added ``window_sum``
  window function. It's similar behavior to window function sum() on
  PostgreSQL.

* Supported to construct offline indexing with in-memory (temporary)
  ``TABLE_DAT_KEY`` table. [GitHub#623] [Reported by Naoya Murakami]

* [onigmo] Updated bundled Onigmo to 6.1.1.

* Supported ``columns[LABEL].window.group_keys``. It's used to apply
  window function for every group.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Supported to report error on
  invalid key. It enables you to detect mismatch type of key.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Supported ``--output_errors yes``
  option. If you specify "yes", you can get errors for each load
  failed record. Note that this feature requires command version 3.

* [:doc:`/reference/commands/load`] Improve error message on table key
  cast failure. Instead of "cast failed", type of table key and target
  type of table key are also contained in error message.

* [httpd] Updated bundled nginx to 1.11.9.

Fixes
^^^^^

* Fixed a bug that nonexistent sort keys for ``drilldowns[LABEL]`` or
  ``slices[LABEL]`` causes invalid JSON parse error. [Patch by Naoya
  Murakami] [GitHub#627]

* Fixed a bug that access to nonexistent sub records for group causes
  a crash.  For example, This bug affects the case when you use
  ``drilldowns[LABEL].sort_keys _sum`` without specifying
  ``calc_types``.  [Patch by Naoya Murakami] [GitHub#625]

* Fixed a crash bug when tokenizer has an error. It's caused when
  tokenizer and token filter are registered and tokenizer has an
  error.

* [:doc:`/reference/window_functions/window_record_number`] Fixed a
  bug that arguments for window function is not correctly
  passed. [GitHub#634][Patch by Naoya Murakami]
