# Changelog

## 2025-11-20 - 4.1.0 - feat(core)
Add S3 endpoint normalization, directory pagination, improved metadata checks, trash support, and related tests

- Add normalizeS3Descriptor helper to sanitize and normalize various S3 endpoint formats and emit warnings for mismatches (helpers.ts).
- Use normalized endpoint and credentials when constructing S3 client in SmartBucket (classes.smartbucket.ts).
- Implement paginated listing helper listObjectsV2AllPages in Directory and use it for listFiles and listDirectories to aggregate Contents and CommonPrefixes across pages (classes.directory.ts).
- Improve MetaData.hasMetaData to catch NotFound errors and return false instead of throwing (classes.metadata.ts).
- Export metadata and trash modules from index (ts/index.ts) and add a Trash class with utilities for trashed files and key encoding (classes.trash.ts).
- Enhance Bucket operations: fastCopy now preserves or replaces native metadata correctly, cleanAllContents supports paginated deletion, and improved fastExists error handling (classes.bucket.ts).
- Fix Directory.getSubDirectoryByName to construct new Directory instances with the correct parent directory reference.
- Add tests covering metadata absence and pagination behavior (test/test.local.node+deno.ts).

## 2025-11-20 - 4.0.1 - fix(plugins)
Use explicit node: imports for native path and stream modules in ts/plugins.ts

- Replaced imports of 'path' and 'stream' with 'node:path' and 'node:stream' in ts/plugins.ts.
- Ensures correct ESM resolution of Node built-ins when package.json type is 'module' and avoids accidental conflicts with userland packages.

## 2025-11-20 - 4.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(core)
Make API strict-by-default: remove *Strict variants, throw on not-found/exists conflicts, add explicit exists() methods, update docs/tests and bump deps

- Breaking: Core API methods are strict by default and now throw errors instead of returning null when targets are missing or already exist (e.g. getBucketByName, getFile, getSubDirectoryByName, fastPut, fastPutStream).
- Removed *Strict variants: fastPutStrict, getBucketByNameStrict, getFileStrict, getSubDirectoryByNameStrict — use the base methods which are now strict.
- Added explicit existence checks: bucketExists (SmartBucket), fileExists (Directory/fileExists), directoryExists (Directory.directoryExists), and fastExists (Bucket.fastExists) to allow non-throwing checks before operations.
- Return type updates: fastPut now returns Promise<File> (no null), getBucketByName/getFile/getSubDirectoryByName now return the respective objects or throw.
- Improved error messages to guide callers (e.g. suggest setting overwrite:true on fastPut when object exists).
- Updated README, changelog and tests to reflect the new strict semantics and usage patterns.
- Developer/runtime dependency bumps: @git.zone/tsbuild, @git.zone/tsrun, @git.zone/tstest, @aws-sdk/client-s3, @push.rocks/smartstring, @tsclass/tsclass (version bumps recorded in package.json).
- Major version bump to 4.0.0 to reflect breaking API changes.

## 2025-11-20 - 4.0.0 - BREAKING: Strict by default + exists methods
Complete API overhaul: all methods throw by default, removed all *Strict variants, added dedicated exists methods

**Breaking Changes:**

**Putters (Write Operations):**
- `fastPut`: Return type `Promise<File | null>` → `Promise<File>`, throws when file exists and overwrite is false
- `fastPutStream`: Now throws when file exists and overwrite is false (previously returned silently)
- `fastPutStrict`: **Removed** - use `fastPut` directly

**Getters (Read Operations):**
- `getBucketByName`: Return type `Promise<Bucket | null>` → `Promise<Bucket>`, throws when bucket not found
- `getBucketByNameStrict`: **Removed** - use `getBucketByName` directly
- `getFile`: Return type `Promise<File | null>` → `Promise<File>`, throws when file not found
- `getFileStrict`: **Removed** - use `getFile` directly
- `getSubDirectoryByName`: Return type `Promise<Directory | null>` → `Promise<Directory>`, throws when directory not found
- `getSubDirectoryByNameStrict`: **Removed** - use `getSubDirectoryByName` directly

**New Methods (Existence Checks):**
- `bucket.fastExists({ path })` - ✅ Already existed
- `directory.fileExists({ path })` - **NEW** - Check if file exists
- `directory.directoryExists(name)` - **NEW** - Check if subdirectory exists
- `smartBucket.bucketExists(name)` - **NEW** - Check if bucket exists

**Benefits:**
- ✅ **Simpler API**: Removed 4 redundant *Strict methods
- ✅ **Type-safe**: No nullable returns - `Promise<T>` not `Promise<T | null>`
- ✅ **Fail-fast**: Errors throw immediately with precise stack traces
- ✅ **Consistent**: All methods behave the same way
- ✅ **Explicit**: Use exists() to check, then get() to retrieve
- ✅ **Better debugging**: Error location is always precise

**Migration Guide:**

```typescript
// ============================================
// Pattern 1: Check then Get (Recommended)
// ============================================

// Before (v3.x):
const bucket = await smartBucket.getBucketByName('my-bucket');
if (bucket) {
  // use bucket
}

// After (v4.0):
if (await smartBucket.bucketExists('my-bucket')) {
  const bucket = await smartBucket.getBucketByName('my-bucket'); // guaranteed to exist
  // use bucket
}

// ============================================
// Pattern 2: Try/Catch
// ============================================

// Before (v3.x):
const file = await directory.getFile({ path: 'file.txt' });
if (!file) {
  // Handle not found
}

// After (v4.0):
try {
  const file = await directory.getFile({ path: 'file.txt' });
  // use file
} catch (error) {
  // Handle not found
}

// ============================================
// Pattern 3: Remove *Strict calls
// ============================================

// Before (v3.x):
const file = await directory.getFileStrict({ path: 'file.txt' });

// After (v4.0):
const file = await directory.getFile({ path: 'file.txt' }); // already strict

// ============================================
// Pattern 4: Write Operations
// ============================================

// Before (v3.x):
const file = await bucket.fastPutStrict({ path: 'file.txt', contents: 'data' });

// After (v4.0):
const file = await bucket.fastPut({ path: 'file.txt', contents: 'data' }); // already strict
```
