5.1.0 - RBAC, Weaviate Embeddings

This version adds support for RBAC, which is in GA starting with Weaviate 1.29 🌮

We've also removed the need to manually set authentication headers when using Weaviate Embeddings service as a vectorizer for a collection, as it will now be done automatically whenever ApiKey authentication is used.

🚧 Experimental syntax introduced in 5.1.0-alpha1 is still deemed experimental. It will not receive full support until the next major release.

What's Changed

• Experimental syntax for nearVector search, object mapping, and partial gRPC support by @bevzzz in #351
• fix: migrate actions/upload-artifact and actions/download-artifact to v4 by @bevzzz in #354
• Update gRPC stubs to stable/v1.29 by @bevzzz in #352
• Set authentication headers for Weaviate Embeddings service by @bevzzz in #355
• feat: RBAC support (Sync/Async) by @bevzzz in #349

Full Changelog: 5.0.1...5.1.0

5.1.0-alpha1 - Experimental syntax, ORM, gRPC for nearVector search

The 5.1.0-alpha1 offers a sneak peak into the concise and expressive syntax we are designing for the next iteration of the Java client, and a taste of the performance improvements to be expected from a complete migration to gRPC.

Head down to GRPCBenchTest.java for examples of the new code snippets or clone the project and run the benchmarks to see them in action:

mvn clean test -Dtest=GRPCBenchTest

As this is a preview version, the scope of these changes is limited to the NearVector query.

What's Changed

• Experimental syntax for nearVector search, object mapping, and partial gRPC support by @bevzzz in #351
• fix: migrate actions/upload-artifact and actions/download-artifact to v4 by @bevzzz in #354
