BREAKING CHANGE: @appium/base-driver's default export (BaseDriver) and @appium/base-driver's basedriver/helpers.js default export are removed; use the named exports instead. The appium/driver.js and driver.d.ts re-exports of the default are removed accordingly.
BREAKING CHANGE: BaseDriver.reset() is removed; it was unused, not part of any protocol route or the Driver interface, and had no callers in this monorepo or any driver package that was checked.
BREAKING CHANGE: BaseDriver's constructor is removed in favor of inherited DriverCore construction; opts is no longer a required constructor argument (it now defaults to {}, matching DriverCore).
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.
* feat: add IPC channels per session for drivers and plugins to communicate (fix#22206)
* lint
* export AppiumIpc
* fix test issues
* import AppiumIpc directly from basedriver
* fakedriver is used directly outside of appium so can't rely on existence of IPC
* make ipc functions async with lock and better types
* fix assignIpc types
* deduplicate session object deletion
* ipcGuard -> withIpc
* address various review comments
* lint
* address copilot and other review comments
* store only last message. change model to use subscription object and async generator
* enforce max message size in bytes
* fix tests and call the message payload 'data' for clarity
* lint
* make assignIpc optional on drivers for backwards compatibility
* add error handling in startClock since it is usually not awaited
* add docs
* remove todo comment
* apply copilot and eglitise suggestions
* add typedoc
* add error handling to onIpcInit
* apply more suggestions
* fix schema unit test
* apply more suggestions
* add links to ipc examples
* make minimum ipc message size 1 instead of 0
* ensure publisher names are friendly to consumers
* fix ipc message time unit
* use already included sizeof for objs
* just pass error obj to log
* be more typescriptey about our ipc guard
* make max obj size part of opts for appiumipc
* let unsubscribe return whether it worked
* improve ipc types and shapes
* apply master package-lock.json
* update schema config
* use javascript naming conventions
* clarify distinction between message and payload (data)
* ensure async iterator loop ends when unsubscribe is called
* ensure the right things happen when you unsubscribe
* make require ipc more ergonomic
* remove unnecessary async locks and de-asyncify methods
* simplify interface and just use subscriber/plugin names
* fix docs
* fix lint
* document isActive
* add note about topic namespace
* use sleep instead of delay
* restrict the ipc payload data type to something that can be cloned
* clarify topic namespacing recommendation
* make sure listeners and promises are cleaned up in async iterator
* clean up ipc internal names
* readonly
* address review comments
* make ipcmessage readonly
* readonly cause why not
* feat: allow drivers to define their own bidi commands
* test(appium): refactor plugin tests server startup
* feat: allow plugins to define their own bidi commands and events
* fix(fake-driver,fake-plugin): ensure custom bidi commands events have vendor prefixes
* feat(appium): link plugin and driver objects in log lines when possible
* fix(appium,base-driver): ensure new methods for plugins aren't called without existence checks
This PR passes a `cliArgs` parameter to the static method `updateServer` of drivers and plugins so they can take action on the server configuration based on the content of the arguments.
Note that `cliArgs` is a misnomer, because these args can also come from configuration files.
Closes#17304
