Powerful again, LiteFlow milestone version 2.8.0 release notes! Will the new DSL surprise you?

one

New version! 2.8.0 go!!!

Here's a short description I wrote before committing to the central repository. I hope this version takes LiteFlow farther.

The new DSL plan was planned half a year ago, but because the bottom layer was not perfect, it took half a year to rewrite the entire bottom layer and iterate slowly, and finally completed the new DSL today!

LiteFlow officially launched milestone version 2.8.0 today! Officially entered the 2.8.X series. This time LiteFlow brings a new design of regular expressions, bringing a qualitative leap! Arranging any complex DAG graph with LiteFlow is already a breeze.

And 2.8.0 is backward compatible at the rule level. If you are using a previous version, you can switch to 2.8.X at a small cost. The official website also provides instructions for upgrading the version.

If you are seeing LiteFlow for the first time, then I can describe it to you like this:

LiteFlow is a flexible, high-growth, community-driven, silky-smooth domestic open-source rule engine that is getting better and better.

It is worth mentioning that a few days before the release of LiteFlow 2.8.0, LiteFlow finally received the recognition of GVP of open source China. Thanks to the official platform for recommending and affirming the LiteFlow project.

For the learning and use of the new DSL, you can go to the official website to check.

2.8.X is compatible with the previous rules. How to upgrade the old version to the new version is also explained in detail on the official website.

I believe that good documentation must be a very important part of open source projects, so in the new version, we have added a lot of content to the documentation to help you better understand this framework. If you have any suggestions for the content of the document during the reading process, you are welcome to tell us in the community group.

LiteFlow has a very good community group. If you have any questions in use, you can ask questions in the community group. Generally, there are questions and answers. All along, LiteFlow has always been community-based, and all iteration directions are driven by the community. There are also many open source authors and public account leaders in the community. If you want to join the community, you can find out how to join the community group at:

In the future, LiteFlow will iterate at a faster speed. In the RoadMap of LiteFlow, the UI layout that has been urged by everyone will meet you in the form of ecological plug-ins in 3.0. Of course, there is still version 2.9.X in the middle. At the current iteration speed, this day should not be too far away.

Please continue to pay attention and thank you for supporting LiteFlow along the way. We will strive to make the domestic rule engine to the extreme.
