BREAKING CHANGE: npm.installPackage now takes a hasAppiumDependency boolean computed by the caller instead of importing the check itself, avoiding a support -> appium dependency.
BREAKING CHANGE: The env export is removed from @appium/support.
BREAKING CHANGE: @appium/base-driver no longer exports statusCodes or getSummaryByCode (the jsonwp-status module was removed).
BREAKING CHANGE: errorFromMJSONWPStatusCode (aliased as errorFromCode) has been removed; use errorFromW3CJsonCode for W3C error-signature mapping.
BREAKING CHANGE: ProtocolError instances no longer have a jsonwpCode property.
BREAKING CHANGE: WebDriverProxy (formerly JWProxy) no longer proxies to or interprets responses from downstream servers speaking the legacy MJSONWP protocol; the ProtocolConverter class, COMMAND_URLS_CONFLICTS, and the downstreamProtocol getter/setter have been removed. Downstream automation servers must speak W3C WebDriver.
BREAKING CHANGE: Responses no longer duplicate element references under the legacy ELEMENT key; only the W3C element-6066-11e4-a52e-4f735466cecf key is present. The MJSONWP_ELEMENT_KEY constant has been removed.
BREAKING CHANGE: determineProtocol has been removed, and drivers can no longer produce the legacy {sessionId, status, value} response shape; all responses are now W3C-shaped regardless of how the client formatted its createSession capabilities.
BREAKING CHANGE: DriverCore#setProtocolMJSONWP() has been removed.
BREAKING CHANGE: The deprecated JWProxy export has been removed; use WebDriverProxy instead. Its source also moved from lib/jsonwp-proxy/proxy.js to lib/wd-proxy/proxy.js.
BREAKING CHANGE: DriverCore#isMjsonwpProtocol() has been removed.
BREAKING CHANGE: The STATIC_DIR export has been removed from @appium/base-driver, along with the built-in /welcome, /test/guinea-pig*, /produce_error, and /crash routes and the APPIUM_ENABLE_LEGACY_TEST_PAGES environment variable that used to enable them.
BREAKING CHANGE: The following @appium/support exports have been removed: process (getProcessIds, killProcess), mkdirp, imageUtil (requireSharp, cropBase64Image), mjpeg (MJpegStream), net's FTP upload
support (FtpUploadOptions, NotHttpUploadOptions; uploadFile only supports http/https now), util's uuidV1/uuidV3/uuidV5/localIp/cancellableDelay/multiResolve, and fs's readPackageJsonFrom/findRoot/ F_OK/R_OK/W_OK/X_OK.
BREAKING CHANGE: The --nodeconfig server argument and the server.nodeconfig config file property no longer exist. Users who need to register with a Selenium Grid should use the Grid 4 relay feature instead (see the Grid guide).
BREAKING CHANGE: TLS-enabled Appium servers no longer negotiate SPDY/HTTP2 (spdy/2, spdy/3, spdy/3.1, h2) via ALPN; connections are now served as plain HTTPS (HTTP/1.1) using Node's native https module. Clients relying on SPDY or HTTP/2 multiplexing against Appium's TLS listener must switch to HTTP/1.1.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/support') no longer works; consumers must import it instead.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/base-driver') no longer works; drivers extending BaseDriver via require must switch to import.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/base-plugin') no longer works; plugins extending BasePlugin via require must switch to import.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('appium') no longer works; plugins extending the package via require must switch to import.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/fake-plugin') no longer works; consumers must import it instead.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/fake-driver') no longer works; consumers must import it instead.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/types') no longer works; consumers must import it instead.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/logger') no longer works; consumers must import it instead.
BREAKING CHANGE: require('@appium/schema') no longer works; consumers must import it instead.
