Starting from version 2.0.0, sailors for Java and Node.js programming languages are feature-compatible. If a feature is available in a given version, you can be sure that Sailors for both programming languages are supporting this feature. The following table shows the support of the platform features in Sailor versions:
| Features | v2.0.x | v2.1.x | v2.2.x |
|---|---|---|---|
| Request-reply | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Startup Hook | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Init Hook | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Passthrough | - | Yes | Yes |
| Shutdown Hook | - | - | Yes |
elastic.io follows the Semver semantics for the Sailor releases. In order to keep the compatibility matrix manageable, we might skip patch releases here.
All the available Node.js Sailor versions can be retrieved directly from the NPM or by executing the following command on your terminal: npm view elasticio-sailor-nodejs versions.
If your component is written in Node.js then you must make the modification in your component.json configuration file found in the root directory of your component. Here is where to pay particular attention:
"dependencies": {
"elasticio-sailor-nodejs": "2.1.0",
"elasticio-node": "0.0.8",
}
All the available Java Sailor versions can be retrieved from the Maven Central Repository.
If your component is written in Java you must make the modification in your build.gradle configuration file found in the root directory of your component. Here is what exactly to modify:
dependencies {
compile "io.elastic:java-api:2.1.0"
}
