# Release Notes

This page summarizes the changes introduced in each ApexBase release, grouped by functional area.


## Unreleased

- No unreleased changes recorded yet. New features and fixes will be listed here before the next public release.

---

## [v1.21.0]https://github.com/BirchKwok/ApexBase/releases/tag/v1.21.0
*2026-07-09*

[Compare with v1.20.1](https://github.com/BirchKwok/ApexBase/compare/v1.20.1...v1.21.0)

- Add Lance-like `BLOB` / `LARGE_BINARY` column support with descriptor-backed storage for inline, packed sidecar, and dedicated sidecar payloads
- Keep blob payloads lazy by storing compact descriptors in `.apex` column data and materializing Arrow `LargeBinary` values only when blob columns are projected
- Add Python helpers for single and batch payload access: `read_blob`, `read_blobs`, `read_blob_range`, `read_blob_ranges`, `read_blob_descriptor`, `read_blob_info`, and `read_blob_infos`
- Extend the Rust engine, SQL parser, Arrow conversion layer, Python bindings, WAL path, mmap path, and on-demand storage pipeline to handle `Blob` values end to end
- Add blob-focused performance coverage with `benchmarks/bench_blob_lance.py`, comparing ApexBase blob write/read/projection behavior against Lance Blob API
- Update the Rust crate and Python package version metadata to 1.21.0

---

## [v1.20.1]https://github.com/BirchKwok/ApexBase/releases/tag/v1.20.1
*2026-06-30*

[Compare with v1.20.0](https://github.com/BirchKwok/ApexBase/compare/v1.20.0...v1.20.1)

- Add dynamic time-based column defaults in `CREATE TABLE`, including `DEFAULT CURRENT_DATE`, `DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP`, `DEFAULT NOW`, and `DEFAULT UNIX_TIMESTAMP()`
- Add row-independent DEFAULT expressions, including arithmetic such as `DEFAULT (60 * 60)`, scalar functions such as `DEFAULT LOWER('ACTIVE')`, and typed casts such as `DEFAULT CAST('2026-01-02' AS DATE)`
- Add `INSERT DEFAULT VALUES` and `VALUES(DEFAULT, ...)` support so rows can explicitly use declared column defaults
- Apply defaults during `INSERT` for omitted columns and explicit `DEFAULT` values, with type-aware output for DATE, TIMESTAMP, string, integer, and floating-point columns
- Persist literal, expression-folded, and dynamic default definitions in on-demand table schemas so constraints survive save/reopen cycles
- Store SQL DATE and TIMESTAMP expression values through table and incremental storage paths by mapping them to their numeric backing representation
- Reject DEFAULT expressions that reference table columns or subqueries, keeping defaults row-independent and deterministic except for the supported time functions
