❤️ A heartfelt "Thank You" to Roman Shevchik and Massimiliano Innocenti for their contributions in testing and reporting the Service Discovery issues, #2110 and #2119, respectively!

ℹ️ About

This release delivers a number of bug fixes for the predecessor's 23.3.0 release, which is full of new features but was not tested well. All bugs were combined into the v23.3 Hotfixes milestone.

Following the substantial refactoring of Service Discovery providers in the 23.3.0 release, the community identified and we have acknowledged several critical service discovery defects with providers such as Kube and Consul. The Kube provider, while somewhat unstable, remained operational; however, the Consul provider was entirely non-functional.

📓 If your projects rely on the Service Discovery feature and cannot function without it, please upgrade to this version to utilize the full list of features of version 23.3.0.

🧑‍💻 Technical Information

A comprehensive explanation of the technical details would span several pages; therefore, it is advisable for fans of Ocelot to review all pertinent technical information within the issue descriptions associated with the milestone.
Our team has implemented some Breaking Changes which we urge you to review carefully (details follow).

⚠️ Breaking Changes

Listed by priority:

• ILoadBalancer interface alteration: Method Lease is now LeaseAsync.
  Interface FQN: Ocelot.LoadBalancer.LoadBalancers.ILoadBalancer
  Method FQN: Ocelot.LoadBalancer.LoadBalancers.ILoadBalancer.LeaseAsync
• DefaultConsulServiceBuilder constructor modification: The first parameter's type has been changed from Func<ConsulRegistryConfiguration> to IHttpContextAccessor.
  Class FQN: Ocelot.Provider.Consul.DefaultConsulServiceBuilder
  Constructor signature: public DefaultConsulServiceBuilder(IHttpContextAccessor contextAccessor, IConsulClientFactory clientFactory, IOcelotLoggerFactory loggerFactory)
• Adjustments to Lease type: The Lease has been restructured from a class to a structure and elevated in the namespace hierarchy.
  Struct FQN: Ocelot.LoadBalancer.Lease

📓 Should your custom solutions involve overriding default Ocelot classes and their behavior, redevelopment or at least recompilation of the solution, followed by deployment, will be necessary.
