Changelog

5.0.0 - 2021-07-02

Added

• Expose ZCAP_CONTEXT in constants as a convenience.
• Add documentLoader to expose a convenience document loader that will load ZCAP_CONTEXT.
• Add extendDocumentLoader for adding a custom document loader that extend documentLoader to load other documents.

Changed

• BREAKING: LD capability invocation proofs now require invocationTarget to be set in order for match() to find proofs based on expectedTarget. This helps ensure that the proof creator's intended invocationTarget is declared (important for systems that support RESTful attenuation) and it enables more efficient proof verification when documents include multiple capability invocation proofs that may have different invocation targets.

Fixed

• Ensure expectedAction is checked when looking for a matching proof, not capabilityAction.
