Unreleased - 2019-01-07

This release is a major refactoring and updating of the addon by Fulzamoth & Tubiakou.

Changed

  • Most of the old lua API functions for working with friends were deprecated in 8.1.0, and will be removed in the next expansion.

    • AddFriend - use C_FriendList.AddFriend instead
    • AddIgnore - use C_FriendList.AddIgnore instead
    • AddOrDelIgnore - use C_FriendList.AddOrDelIgnore instead
    • GetIgnoreName - use C_FriendList.GetIgnoreName instead

    The following four functions previously took a name or index to identify the friend being modified. As of 8.1.0 they have each been split into separate functions with a ...ByIndex function for use with indexes.

    • DelIgnore - use C_FriendList.DelIgnore or C_FriendList.DelIgnoreByIndex instead
    • RemoveFriend - has been split into two functions: C_FriendList.RemoveFriend or C_FriendList.RemoveFriendByIndex. The correct function must be called to remove a friend by name or index.
    • SetFriendNotes - use C_FriendList.SetFriendNotes or C_FriendList.SetFriendNotesByIndex instead
    • GetFriendInfo - use C_FriendList.GetFriendInfo or C_FriendList.GetFriendInfoByIndex instead

  • C_FriendList.AddFriend takes notes as an optional argument, so we simplified the sync to use that instead of delaying and running a note-sync pass separately.

  • Fixed a problem that prevented the addon from working on non-connected realms.

  • The ignore list was incorrectly syncing all ignores rather than just those for the connected realms. We've updated it to match the logic used for the friends list.

  • Variable names were standardized to better match the API use. name is the character name, and may or may not have include the realm. index is used only with the ...ByIndex API functions.

  • Some function names have been renamed to make it clearer what they're doing.

  • Switched to triggering on the PLAYER_LOGIN event instead of PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD, since we don't care to run when a player respawns at a graveyard or enters/leaves and instance.

  • Shortened initial sync delay to 10 seconds.

Added

  • Toggling the ignore status of a friend on your friends list was not captured by the addon. We've added an overload of C_FriendList.AddOrDelIgnore to trap it.
  • Some API functions return a value that the UI expects. These are passed through now.
  • Added an update interval setting to avoid looping through the wait table on each screen update.
  • Documented the arguments and returns for the API overloads.
