### Fixed
- Don't allow empty batch() operations through to LevelDB, on chained of array forms ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## [0.3.0] - 2013-05-14
### Added
- Add [**@No9**](https://github.com/No9) to contributors ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
### Changed
- Pull API tests up into `AbstractLevelDOWN`, require it to run the tests. `AbstractLevelDOWN` can now be used to test `LevelDOWN`-compliant API's ([**@maxogden**](https://github.com/maxogden))
- Change iterator methods to return errors on the callbacks rather than throw ([**@mcollina**](https://github.com/mcollina) & [**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Update documentation for `.get()` ([**@deanlandolt**](https://github.com/deanlandolt))
### Removed
- Remove browserify shim ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
**Historical Note** In the early days minor versions were looked upon as major versions. Semver practices we use today was not adopted fully at this time. This is why the history might look a bit confusing.
<!-- ## 0.2.4 - 2013-05-21
**Historical Note** Did not publish as a tag and `package.json` was never committed with this version number. Most likely due to a locally modified `package.json`. -->
## [0.2.3] - 2013-05-17
### Fixed
- Backport memory leak fixes ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## [0.2.2] - 2013-05-14
### Added
- Add node 0.10 to Travis ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Add [**@mcollina**](https://github.com/mcollina) to contributors ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Add browserify shim so `levelup` can run in the browser ([**@No9**](https://github.com/No9))
### Changed
- Extract basic test code to `abstract-leveldown` ([**@maxogden**](https://github.com/maxogden))
## [0.2.1] - 2013-04-08
### Changed
- Ignore empty string/buffer start/end options on iterators ([**@kesla**](https://github.com/kesla))
- Macro cleanup, replace some with static inline functions ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
### Fixed
- Fix iterator to start on correct value when `reverse=true`, also handle end-of-store case ([#27](https://github.com/Level/leveldown/issues/27)) ([**@kesla**](https://github.com/kesla))
## [0.2.0] - 2013-03-30
### Added
- Add windows support, using a combination of libuv and Windows-specific code. See README for details about what's required ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Add `leveldown.destroy(location, cb)` to delete an existing `LevelDB` store, exposes `LevelDB.DestroyDB()` ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Add `leveldown.repair(location, cb)` to repair an existing `LevelDB` store, exposes `LevelDB.RepairDB()` ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Add advanced options: `writeBufferSize`, `blockSize`, `maxOpenFiles`, `blockRestartInterval`, exposes `LevelDB` options ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Add chained batch operations. Argument-less `db.batch()` will return a new `Batch` object that can `.put()` and `.del()` and then `.write()`. API in flux so not documented yet. ([**@juliangruber**](https://github.com/juliangruber) / [**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
### Changed
- Auto-cleanup iterators that are left open when you close a database; any iterators left open when you close a database instance will kill your process so we now keep track of iterators and auto-close them before a db.close completes ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## [0.1.4] - 2013-03-11
### Changed
- Return error when batch ops contain `null` or `undefined` ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg) / [**@ralphtheninja**](https://github.com/ralphtheninja) / [**@dominictarr**](https://github.com/dominictarr))
## [0.1.3] - 2013-03-09
### Fixed
- `SmartOS` build problems ([**@wolfeidau**](https://github.com/wolfeidau))
## [0.1.2] - 2013-02-24
### Changed
- Upgrade to `LevelDB@1.9.0`, fairly minor changes since 1.7.0 ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Upgrade to `Snappy@1.1.0`, changes block size to improve compression ~3%, slight decrease in speed ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## [0.1.1] - 2013-02-24
### Fixed
- Compile error on Mac OS ([**@kesla**](https://github.com/kesla) / [**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## [0.1.0] - 2013-02-24
### Added
- Add complete, independent test suite ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
### Changed
- Change API to export single function `levelup()` ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Move `createIterator()` to `levelup#iterator()` ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Make all `options` arguments optional ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Argument number & type checking on all methods ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
- Stricter checking on key & value types, `String`/`Object.toString()`/`Buffer`, non-zero-length ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
### Removed
- Remove `use namespace` and add `namespace leveldown` everywhere ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
### Fixed
- Fix race condition in Iterator `end()`/`next()`, merged from `LevelUP` ([**@ralphtheninja**](https://github.com/ralphtheninja) / [**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## [0.0.2] - 2013-01-20
### Changed
- Finalize rename of internal components to `LevelDOWN`, removing `LevelUP` references ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## [0.0.1] - 2013-01-20
### Added
- Complete documentation of current API ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
### Fixed
- Callback is not optional for `.close()` ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
## 0.0.0 - 2013-01-06
:seedling: First release. Extracted from `levelup` as a stand-alone package ([**@rvagg**](https://github.com/rvagg))
