Before SDK 5.9.0 SDK 5.9.0
registerDevice(...)
login(...)
unregisterDevice()
logout()
Rename AmityMessageMentionMetadata to AmityMentionMapper

Before SDK 5.9.0	SDK 5.9.0
`registerDevice(...)`	`login(...)`
`unregisterDevice()`	`logout()`

Change AmityClient initializer to throwable initializer

class AmityClient {
    public init(...) throws
}

Change all message creation API in AmityMessageRepository to callback-style Before SDK 5.9.0

let messageLiveObject = messageRepository.createTextMessage(...)
token = messageLiveObject.observe(...) {
    // 1. Handle message creation response.
    // 2. Observe message data changes.
}

SDK 5.9.0

let messageId = messageRepository.createTextMessage(...) { message, error in
    // 1. Handle message creation response.
}
token = messageRepository.getMessage(messageId).observe {
    // 2. Observe message data changes.
}

Simplify channel creation API Before SDK 5.9.0: The API requires chaining .channelType(with:) after calling .createChannel()

token = channelRepository.createChannel().community(with: builder).observe { channel, error in
    /// ...
}

SDK 5.9.0: The builder can be passed to createChannel(with:) directly

token = channelRepository.createChannel(with: builder).observe { channel, error in
    /// ...
}

Simplify channel update API Before SDK 5.9.0: Developers need to create an updater and call updater.update()

let updater = channelRepository.updateChannel(channelId)
token = updater.update().observe { channel, error in
    // ...
}

SDK 5.9.0: Developers can call updateChannel(with:) directly

token = channelRepository.updateChannel(with: builder).observe { channel, error in
    // ...
}

Simplify channels query API Before SDK 5.9.0: Developers need to create a query builder for a specific channel type. To pass the query builder, developers need to pick the correct channel type function after .getChannel() call

let builder = AmityCommunityChannelQueryBuilder(...)

let collection = repository.getChannels().communityType(with: builder).query()
token = collection.observe { collection, error in
    // ...
}

SDK 5.9.0: Developers can create a generic AmityChannelQuery and pass it to .getChannels(with:) directly. To filter channel types, developers can set query.types which the value can be found in AmityChannelQueryType.

let query = AmityChannelQuery()
query.types = [AmityChannelQueryType.conversation]
query.filter = .all
query.includingTags = ["dog"]
query.excludingTags = ["cat"]
query.includeDeleted = false

token = channelRepository.getChannels(with: query).observe { collection, error in
    // ...
}

Deprecate the following methods:
- AmityClient(apiKey:_, httpUrl:_, socketUrl:_)
- AmityClient(apiKey:_, url:_)Use the following methods instead:
- Use AmityClient(apiKey:_, region:_)
- AmityClient(apiKey:_, endpoint:_) methods instead.

AmityRegionalEndpoint is now deprecated. Use AmityRegion instead.

// New Way:
let client = AmityClient(apiKey: "api-key", region: .global)

clientErrorDelegate in AmityClient is now deprecated. A new delegate property is introduced in AmityClient. Now you can observe connection status change through delegate itself.

let client = AmityClient(...)
client.delegate = self
…

extension MyClass: AmityClientDelegate { 
        
        func didChangeConnectionStatus(status: AmityConnectionStatus) { 
                // Observe connection status change here
