Childflow

childflow 0.8.1

This release focuses on internal refactoring and maintainability improvements across childflow while preserving the existing user-facing behavior.

The goal of this release is to make the codebase easier to extend, test, and review after the feature growth introduced in earlier releases.

Highlights

• Refactored large modules across the codebase into smaller, responsibility-focused submodules
• Improved separation of concerns in rootless / rootful networking, sandbox policy handling, capture, reporting, namespace setup, proxying, and test support code
• Reorganized integration and unit tests so future feature work can be added with less friction
• Kept behavior stable and validated the refactor with a full Docker-based test run

Changed

• Split large modules under src/network/rootless_internal/ and src/network/rootful/ into clearer module trees
• Refined internal structure for:
  • report
  • summary
  • doctor
  • preflight
  • profile
  • dns
  • capture
  • flow_log
  • tproxy
  • sandbox
• Reworked tests/rootless_proxy.rs support and scenario files into smaller test modules for better maintainability
• Reduced the size of several high-traffic internal files so networking, policy, and reporting paths are easier to inspect and evolve

Validation

• Full Docker test suite passed:
  • cargo test -- --nocapture
• Test result:
  • 150 unit / integration tests passed
  • 34 rootless_proxy tests passed
  • 9 environment-gated tests remain ignored by design

Notes

• This release is primarily an internal quality and maintainability release
• No intentional user-facing breaking changes were introduced
• childflow remains Linux-only
