8.0.0

Added

• Add logger parameter to initializeProvider (#116)
• Add window.web3 shim, shimWeb3 export (#113, #115)
  • This is to maintain window.web3.currentProvider once MetaMask stops injecting window.web3 (very soon), and to log attempts to access any properties on the shim other than currentProvider.
  • initializeWeb3 now has a shouldShimWeb3 argument, which causes the shim to be set as window.web3 if true.

Changed

• (BREAKING) Rename initProvider export to initializeProvider (#114)
• (BREAKING) Replace ethereum.publicConfigStore with new set of JSON-RPC notifications (#109)

Fixed

• Correctly implement connect and disconnect events (#120)
  • See EIP-1193 for the specification of these events.
  • disconnect emits with an RPC error. Like all such errors emitted by this module, they have a code property with a number value. There are currently two codes:
    • 1013 indicates that MetaMask is attempting to reestablish the connection
    • 1011 indicates that a page reload is required
• Send page metadata even if page is already loaded (#119)
• Convert MetaMaskInpageProvider logger to instance variable (#118)
  • Previously, it was erroneously a singleton across all class instances.
• Stop emitting state change events on initialization (#117)
  • Includes accountsChanged, chainChanged, and networkChanged.
  • This prevents sites that handle any of these events by reloading the page from entering into a reload loop.

Removed

• (BREAKING) Remove _metamask.isEnabled and _metamask.isApproved (#112)
• (BREAKING) Remove the chainIdChanged event (#111)
• (BREAKING) Remove ethereum.publicConfigStore (#109)
• (BREAKING) Remove web3.js-related functionality (#106)
  • This functionality caused the page to reload if there was a web3.js instance at window.web3, and kept web3.eth.defaultAccount in sync with ethereum.selectedAddress.
  • This functionality is replicated in @metamask/legacy-web3.

7.0.0

• (BREAKING) Changed casing of Metamask in all exports to MetaMask
  • A brand is a brand ¯\(ツ)/¯

6.3.0

• ethereum.chainId and .networkVersion now default to null instead of undefined
• Improved JSDoc comments and tags

6.0.0

Added

• The data event
  • This event was removed in 4.0.0, as it was thought to only be used internally.
    This assumption was incorrect, and the event is now restored.

Changed

• (BREAKING) Restore the notification event value to its pre-4.0.0 state
  • Prior to 4.0.0 this event was emitted by code in the MetaMask extension.
    Its value was inadvertently changed when it was moved to this package.

Implement new EIP-1193 API

Added

• The most recent EIP 1193 API (#30)
  • The method request
  • The events disconnect and message
• A global initialization event, ethereum#initialized, for
  asynchronous injection (#31)
• Helper methods for initializing the provider (#31)

Changed

• BREAKING: Use named instead of default exports (#31)
• BREAKING: MetaMaskInpage constructor now takes a connectionStream and an
  options object (#31)
• BREAKING: _metamask.sendBatch -> _metamask.requestBatch (#30)
• BREAKING: Revert send to match provider in v7.7.8 of metamask-extension (#29)
• The connect event now emits with a ProviderConnectInfo object per EIP 1193 (#30)
• Deprecated the send method (#30)
• Deprecated the events close, networkChanged, and notification, and
  added deprecation warnings for them (#30)
• Un-deprecated sendAsync (#29)

Fix faulty null checks

• Fix faulty null checks
• Update package(s)

Remove over-eager eth_accounts error

This release prevents the incorrect firing of an eth_accounts-related error ("accounts updated unexpectedly").

Convert module to class, bind class methods to instance

• Converts MetamaskInpageProvider to an ES2015 Class.
  • Minor version bump as this is breaking in legacy browsers.
• Bind class methods to the instance in constructor function, preventing them from being called in an unbound state.
  • Fixes [email protected] compatibility issues

Optional metadata sending; typecheck request.method

• Added boolean constructor argument to prevent sending of site metadata, for use in contexts other than desktop browsers
• Added typecheck for request.method in the error middleware; this will intercept requests before passing them off if they have an invalid method string
