### v2.0.0
geniURL v2's public instance now requires using the base path `api.sv443.net/geniurl/v2/`  
All requests to `api.sv443.net/geniurl/` will use the old version which will be deprecated soon.

**Features:**
- TODO: Added `?redirect` parameter for automatic HTTP redirection instead of returning a JSON response ([#22](https://github.com/Sv443/geniURL/issues/22))

**Changes:**
- **Breaking:** If no results are found, the API now responds with code 200 and `"error": false` instead of responding with code 400 and `"error": true`. The `"message"` prop was also removed.
  - If no results are found when using the `/search/top` route, the above still applies, but the `top` prop will also be set to `null` and `all` will be an empty array in JSON or `<all/>` in XML
- **Breaking:** Removed fuzzy filtering and `?disableFuzzy` and `?threshold` parameters altogether (to maybe be added back in the future as an opt-in feature) ([#24](https://github.com/Sv443/geniURL/issues/24))
- Reduced rate limit budget by 5, from 25 requests in 30 seconds to 20 requests in 30 seconds
- IP addresses are now hashed before being stored in the rate limiter cache in memory

<br>

### v1.3.3
**Changes:**
- Removed `?preferLang` parameter due to genius API not returning a song language anymore ([#20](https://github.com/Sv443/geniURL/issues/20))
- Added temporary `?disableFuzzy` parameter to optionally disable fuzzy filtering since it's not as accurate as it should be

**Fixes:**
- Fixed errored response for /translations/:songId - it now sets matches to null and gives a different error message if the provided song ID is invalid ([#18](https://github.com/Sv443/geniURL/issues/18))

<br>

### v1.3.2
- Increased ratelimit budget from 5 requests in 15 seconds to 25 requests in 30 seconds

<br>

### v1.3.1
- Fixed inconsistent `error` property when no translations are found
- Added support for preflight through an OPTIONS request
- Improved ratelimit header consistency
- Removed timestamp property to allow for better caching
- Made documentation more clear

### v1.3.0
- Added route `/translations/:songId` to receive info about a song's translation pages
- Added route `/album/:songId` to get info about the album that the provided song is in

- geniURL will now replace inconsistent unicode characters in the properties `title`, `fullTitle`, and `artists` ([#15](https://github.com/Sv443/geniURL/issues/15))

<br>

### v1.2.0
- Added `?threshold` parameter to change the fuzzy search threshold from its default of 0.6 ([#7](https://github.com/Sv443/geniURL/issues/7))
- Added support for fuzzy searching when using `?q` instead of `?artist` and `?song` ([#8](https://github.com/Sv443/geniURL/issues/8))
