3Box v1.20.0

This release brings new IPFS features/performance in ipfs@0.44.0, and decreases bundled size by 1mb. Based on feedback from our first 3ID-Connect release, this brings a new more lightweight version and refactor. With these changes you need to pass a provider (as before) when creating or authenticating. The function get3idConnectProvider() is no longer available, when passing a provider we create a 3ID-Connect provider in the background. The recommended way to initialize a session is now as follows.

// On page load create
const box = await Box.create()
// Later authenticate user
const spaces = ['myDapp']
await box.auth(spaces, { address: '0x12345abcde', provider: ethProvider })

Release Notes

• feat: default to 3ID-Connect, pass an eth provider and 3id-connect will be created in background
• feat: supported function for browser feature support detection
• ref: pass a provider at box.auth instead of Box.create, so create can be called on page load.
• chore: upgrade to ipfs 0.44.0, libp2p-webrtc
• feat: ghostpinbot pass address
• ref: link address on auth
