RediStack 1.0.0 Beta 1

This is the first release of the package in beta state! 🎉

While it is now in beta, the API is considered stable except for 1 notable exception: RedisCommand.

To support PubSub (the last feature for GM 1.0.0), RedisCommand will need to see some breaking changes. Luckily, if you're not a low-system user (NIO level), then this package can be considered 1.0.0 ready.

If you find any bugs, please report them with a GitLab Issue.

API Docs are always available at docs.redistack.info

Major

• The map extension on EventLoopFuture is no longer public !125
• Swift 5.0 is no longer supported - Swift 5.1 is now the minimum version required to use this package !131
  • This isn't officially documented yet, but RediStack will support strive to support the last 3 Swift versions
• logger is no longer a requirement for the RedisClient protocol !130
  • Consequently, it is no longer publicly accessible on RedisConnection
• RedisClient.logging(to:) now returns a RedisClient existential that provides logging to the provide instance !130
  • For more information on this, see the Swift forum discussion: https://forums.swift.org/t/the-context-passing-problem/39162
• Log statements have seen their messaging, log levels, and metadata keys changed across the package !130
  • in addition, logs are now generated from more locations - particularly RedisConnectionPool

Minor

• RedisConnectionPool.close now optionally accepts an EventLoopPromise to fail/succeed when closing a pool (thanks @tanner0101) !126
• RediStack has a new module called RedisTypes, which provide a familiar Swift Standard Library API with types that Redis operates on, starting with RedisSet !133
• RedisConnectionPool.id is now public !130
• The activate, close, and updateConnectionAddresses methods on RedisConnectionPool now optionally accept a Logger instance to log with !130
• RedisLogging is a new namespace that exposes the metadata keys and labels used with logging in RediStack so you can consistently refer to them !130
  • The "prototype" instances of Logger used as defaults by RedisConnection and RedisConnectionPool are now available as well

Patch

• Fixed #68 where connections were unexpectedly closing but weren't being handled !127
• Fixed #79 and #74 where user-provided logger context was not thread safe !130

Misc
