2025-07-27 - 3.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(core)

Major architectural refactoring with fetch-like API

Breaking Changes:

• Legacy API functions are now imported from @push.rocks/smartrequest/legacy instead of the main export
• Modern API response objects now use fetch-like methods (.json(), .text(), .arrayBuffer(), .stream()) instead of direct .body access
• Renamed responseType() method to accept() in modern API
• Removed automatic defaults:
  • No default keepAlive (must be explicitly set)
  • No default timeouts
  • No automatic JSON parsing in core
• Complete internal architecture refactoring:
  • Core module now always returns raw streams
  • Response parsing happens in SmartResponse methods
  • Legacy API is now just an adapter over the core module

Features:

• New fetch-like response API with single-use body consumption
• Better TypeScript support and type safety
• Cleaner separation of concerns between request and response
• More predictable behavior aligned with fetch API standards

Documentation:

• Updated all examples to show correct import paths
• Added comprehensive examples for the new response API
• Enhanced migration guide

Enhance documentation and tests with modern API usage examples and migration guide

• Added a migration guide comparing the legacy API and modern API usage
• Improved installation instructions with npm, pnpm, and yarn examples
• Added and updated test files for both legacy and modern API functionalities
• Minor formatting improvements in the code and documentation examples
