CloudCode v1.14.0

We are excited to announce that version 1.14.0 of CloudCode has been released.

Updates in this version:

In this release, we’ve addressed compilation issues with some TypeScript contexts in version 1.13.0 of CloudCode.

• TypeScript Version Upgrade: CloudCode now uses TypeScript 5.6 (previously TypeScript 4.x). This major version bump brings new language and syntax features that may prompt minor code adjustments, especially if your code relies on loosely defined types. Notably, TypeScript 5 expands usage of the unknown type, which might trigger type-related errors in existing code. A good write up on breaking changes and best practices is available in this guide.

• Native fetch() Implementation: CloudCode’s fetch() API now uses the native Node 18 fetch, moving away from node-fetch. This update should not affect any existing code, but if you do run into an edge case, or you prefer node-fetch, you can add it to your package.json and import it with import fetch from 'node-fetch'; in your tasks.

• Updated Type Definitions: @types/node is now at version 20, aligning with the CloudCode Node.js version.

If any TypeScript errors arise, or you want additional configuration, you can further configure or override TypeScript settings in your task's tsconfig with version 5 compilerOptions.
