# Changelog

## v2.0.0 - March 8th, 2022

### Changed
* `AvroEx.encode/2` now returns `{:error, AvroEx.EncodeError.t()}` in the case of an error
* Primitive integer types now represented as `%Primitive{type: :int}` instead of `%Primitive{type: :integer}`
* Primitive null types now represented as `%Primitive{type: :null}` instead of `%Primitive{type: nil}`
* Schema decoding now supports directly passing Elixir terms, will strictly validate the schema, and produce helpful error messages
* Removed `Ecto` as a dependency
* `AvroEx.Schema.full_name/2` - reverses the order of the arguments, accepting a Schema type or name, followed by the namespace

### Added
* `AvroEx.encode!/2` - identical to `encode/2`, but returns raw value. Raises on error
* `AvroEx.decode!/2` - identical to `decode/2`, but returns raw value. Raises on error
* `AvroEx.decode_schema/1` and `AvroEx.decode_schema!/` in place of `AvroEx.parse_schema/1`
* Support for encoding and decoding `date` logical times to and from `Date.t()`
* Schema decoding adds a `:strict` option that will strictly validate the schema for unrecognized fields
* `AvroEx.encode_schema/2` - encode a `AvroEx.Schema.t()` back to JSON. Supports encoding the schema to [Parsing Canonical Form](https://avro.apache.org/docs/current/spec.html#Parsing+Canonical+Form+for+Schemas)
* `AvroEx.Schema.namespace/2` - Returns the namespace of the given Schema type

### Deprecated
* `AvroEx.parse_schema/1`
* `AvroEx.parse_schema!/1`
* `AvroEx.named_type!/2`
