v1.1.0 Release Notes
=====================

Changes
-------

Unified Search
``````````````

Peek now has a new unified search plugin. This plugin is populated by other "loader"
plugins with all kinds of information.

The search plugin handles the indexing and storage of all the information
and provides a UI.

There is an Angular service API so other plugins can retrieve search results at will.

Search items consist of some key, value properties, and some paths to route to should
the user select them.

The search plugin has full offline support, by default it's online.

Document DB
```````````

Peek now has a new DocDB plugin, as in Json Document.

This plugin stores JSON documents and has a simple UI that presents key/values from the
document.

The DocDB plugin handles all the storage, memory caching, compressing and transport to
the clients.

There is an Angular service API so other plugins can retrieve documents at will.

The DocDB plugin has full offline support, by default it's online.

Offline Diagram
```````````````

Not to be outdone by the search and docdb plugins, the diagram plugin now has full
offline support as well for nativescript apps (web is supported, but it's disabled).

Like the other plugins, the diagram will download and store all diagram grids and lookups
locally. It will check for updated grids every 15m and download the changes.

----

The "LocationIndex" in the diagram has had a small overhaul, previously it insisted on
caching all the location index chunks to the browser/device before it would locate
something. Now it supports online queries, significantly improving the speed of the
initial diagram load.

----

The diagram now highlights equipment when it positions on them.

----

Finally, If you're using a web browser, the diagram updates the URL in the address
bar, so you can share links or hit reload an the diagram will show restore to its
previous state.

VortexJS
````````

The VortexJS performance for the :code:`TupleDataOfflineObserverService` class.
This is the class that handles most of the locally/offline cached data that is
reactivly observed from the peek client.

There are preformance and memory improvements, with the memory cached tuples now
being purged after two minutes, and a significant reduction of the local storage save
calls.

NativeScript UI
```````````````

The nativescript UI responsiveness has been significantly improved.
