Taquito 7.1.0

New Features

Lambda Views

Lambda views is a technique that allows a caller to execute a view function on a contract without incurring fees. Taquito provides an abstraction over this technique that makes it easy to use. Application developers can use this feature to call view methods on smart-contracts without incurring fees.

See the Lambda View documentation

Special thanks to Philip Diaz and Michael Klien for contributing this feature to Taquito.

michel-codec type checking

The @taquito/michel-codec package now validates/type checks your Michelson. This validation provides an additional layer of safety and speed as this package validates Michelson at run-time, catching invalid code before it reaches a Tezos node. We will be integrating michel-codec package deeper into Taquito over the next few releases.

Beacon V2

The Taquito wallet API now supports Beacon V2. This update is the product of close collaboration between AirGap, Kukai, Thanos, and Taquito. The updated TZIP-10/Beacon experience is smoother than before, and users who have more than one Tezos wallet are accommodated.

The new behaviour can be seen in action here: https://cloney.tezostaquito.io/, with actual implementation from the dApp side available here: https://github.com/ecadlabs/george-cloney

What's coming next?

We are busy working on TZIP-16 support in Taquito to allow users to work with Contracts Metadata and load "off-chain" views.
