MySQL Connector/Node.js 8.0.8-dmr has been released

Dear MySQL users,

MySQL Connector/Node.js is a new Node.js driver for use with the X
DevAPI. This release, v8.0.8, is the second development release of the
MySQL Connector/Node.js 8.0 series.

The X DevAPI enables application developers to write code that combines
the strengths of the relational and document models using a modern,
NoSQL-like syntax that does not assume previous experience writing
traditional SQL.

MySQL Connector/Node.js can be downloaded through npm (see
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mysql/xdevapi for details) or from
https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/nodejs/.

To learn more about how to write applications using the X DevAPI, see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/x-devapi-userguide/en/. For more information
about how the X DevAPI is implemented in MySQL Connector/Node.js, and
its usage, see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/connector-nodejs/.

Please note that the X DevAPI requires at least MySQL Server version
5.7.12 or higher with the X Plugin enabled. For general documentation
about how to get started using MySQL as a document store, see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/document-store.html.

      * Added row locking support by adding the lockExclusive()
        and lockShared() methods to the CollectionFind and
        TableSelect classes. For additional information, see

      * Added "contains" operator support for objects and arrays.
        This allows additional types of expressions such as IN
        [x, y, z] and IN { "x": "foo", "y": "bar" }, and also
        referencing field names that map to arrays and objects,
        such as someArray IN $.field and someObject IN $.field.

    Bugs Fixed

      * Added support for the parentheses-based IN syntax, such
        as IN (x, y, z, ...), as defined in the X DevAPI. (Bug
        #26666817)

Enjoy and thanks for the support!
