Features

• Upgraded WireMock to 2.25.0
• Upgraded Proto compiler to 3.10.1

Fixes

• Fixed support for reserved fields in gRPC proto files
• Errors when compiling proto files are now reported in the logs
• Swagger/OpenAPI example dates are now considered when performing an import

Changes

• New toggle trafficparrot.virtualservice.grpc.check.mapping.schema.allow.missing.fields that can be set to true to allow gRPC mapping files to have fields missing when compared to the proto schema. This is to allow for usages where there are fields that are intentionally omitted to pick up on the default.

We also made the following changes in the 5.5.3 release:

Fixes

• Fixed support for gRPC error mappings in the new static analysis check
• Fixed support for gRPC dynamic response mappings in the new static analysis check
• Fixed support for gRPC mappings with repeated fields in the new static analysis check
• More consistent error reporting format for errors in dynamic responses, to make it clear which helper had a problem
• Always print log file in the Maven/Gradle plugin console if Traffic Parrot fails to start

Features

• New state management examples added to the examples project
