Grunt 0.1.11 Is Available Now

Winter Update just dropped, and along with it there are some new APIs introduced as well through the master settings endpoint. The 0.1.11 release introduces coverage for those so that you’re not behind if you’re using the SDK to manage new Forge goodness. The build also introduces support for new non-game Halo Waypoint APIs.

Here are some of the highlights of what you get with the updated library build:

• PUT and PATCH requests now have the proper content attributes set when executing the API call. Previously, only POST was covered. This means that the headers are now property attached to the request and you won’t get a HTTP 400 Bad Request when trying to execute some modifications.
• BanProcessorBanSummary is now properly associated with the right origin in the class structure. StatsBanSummary is no more (it never belonged in stats).
• Added HIUGCGrantOrRevokePermissions to enable developers to amend permissions for in-game assets.
• Added HIUGCFavoriteAFilmByMatchId to favorite films by only by having a match ID. Favoriting of films works properly in the latest retail build.
• Added HIUGCDiscoveryGetManifestByBuildGuid to enable developers to get game manifest from the build GUID and not just the version.
• You now have HIUGCDiscoveryGetForgeTemplates to get the list of Forge canvases.
• Added HIUGCDiscoveryGetFilm to get film metadata through the film ID instead of fiddling with match IDs and the /spectate endpoints.
• Added HIUGCDiscoveryGet343Recommended to get the list of assets recommended by 343 Industries for players to try.
• StatsGetPlayerServiceRecord can now get season-agnostic (lifetime) stats.
• Added GetArticles to list all available news content on Halo Waypoint.
• Added GetArticle to get an individual article published on Halo Waypoint.
• Added GetArticleCategories to get the list of categories under which articles are published on Halo Waypoint.
• Added GetArticleCategory to obtain a single article category from Halo Waypoint.
• Added GetServiceAwards to get the list of service awards that are associated with a Halo Waypoint profile.
• Added PutFeaturedServiceAwards to enable developers to customize the service awards on the Halo Waypoint profile.
• Added GetServiceAward to get an individual service award from a Halo Waypoint profile.
• AssetSearchResult now has added properties to account for additional metadata included on asset publication.
• Film now properly inherits from AssetBase since it’s a standard asset.
• Asset and version IDs in AssetBase are now proper GUIDs instead of strings.
• Added support for Infection stats through InfectionStats. The game mode is not yet available in production but the early pre-baked variants already exist.
• Gamerpic is now flagged as IsAutomaticallySerializable so that content can actually be transformed intro a strongly-typed model. So is UserEmail, UserNotificationSettings, UserProfile, and UserSettings.

As always, you can take a look at the source code for everything that I am building with Grunt on GitHub.
