Kitex Release v0.4.3

Introduction to Key Changes

Feature

  1. Extend the Generated Code of client/server: Add a new feature which can extend generated client.go/server.go with config file. It is applicable to the scenario for customizing the unified suite. See Extend the Templates of Service Generated Code for details.
  2. Biz Customized Exception : Add supporting to return customized biz error which can distinguish with RPC error. See Business Exception, Proposal.
  3. Request Profiler : Add a new feature to do profiler for requests which can be used for cost statistics.
  4. Context Middleware : Add Context Middleware which is used for adding request-level middlewares.

Optimization

  1. Frugal Performance Optimization : Support frugal precompile (pretouch) when new client or server, which is to reduce the impact of dynamic compilation on latency.
  2. Connpool Optimiztion : Refactor connection pool to improve the idle connections cleanup.
