[Unreleased]

Added

• Document uploads: upload_client, upload_invoice, upload_expense, and thirteen more, one for each resource with an /{id}/upload route. They take a Vec<FileUpload> and an optional is_public, and return the refreshed record. Uploads are never retried, since a replay could attach the file twice. This is the only way the API creates a document, so there is no create_document. Enables reqwest's multipart feature, which adds mime, mime_guess, and unicase and leaves the MSRV at 1.88.
• Per-resource extras, nineteen methods: retry_webhook, sort_tasks, set_default_design, set_default_client_gateway_token, subscription_steps, check_subscription_steps, the company-gateway test/clone/import_customers trio, four bank-integration and bank-transaction routes, and six client routes (update_client_tax_data, client_show_settings, client_peppol_discovery, check_client_vat, client_vat_status, client_documents). Each is a POST unless noted in COVERAGE.md, so none is retried on a 5xx. Adds MessageResponse for the {"message": ...} replies and SubscriptionStep.
• Password-protected actions, eight methods: purge_client, merge_clients, merge_vendors, purge_company, purge_company_save_settings, invite_user, purge_user, and new_user_template. They need with_api_password, most cannot be undone, and none is retried on a 5xx. A merge keeps the first id and folds the second into it. Checked against the upstream controllers and mock servers; not yet against a real instance.
• Activity log, email history and previews, fourteen methods: list_activities, list_all_activities, activity_feed, entity_activity, add_activity_note, download_activity_entity, client_email_history, entity_email_history, and the previews preview, preview_html, live_preview, live_design, preview_purchase_order and live_preview_purchase_order. Adds Activity, ActivityFeedEntry and ActivityRef. Email history is returned as raw JSON. See COVERAGE.md for which were confirmed against a real server and the easy mistakes (a singular entity name in one route, a plural in the next).
• FileUpload and Error::InvalidUpload. An upload with no files, a nameless file, or an unparseable MIME type is refused locally, because the server answers an empty upload with a success that changed nothing.
• A declared minimum supported Rust version of 1.88, verified by running the test suite against it. The floor comes from the dependency graph (reqwest → url → idna → icu_*), not from this crate's own code. CI builds on both the MSRV and the pinned dev toolchain, plus a weekly advisory job on latest stable that reports breakage from a new Rust release. The advisory job fails visibly rather than silently; it is kept non-blocking through branch protection rather than continue-on-error.
• Wrappers for every one of the API's 34 Route::resource groups, plus users — 325 methods (including document uploads, per-resource extras, password-protected actions, and activity, email-history and preview routes). See COVERAGE.md for the per-endpoint inventory.
• COVERAGE.md, a detailed record of what is wrapped, what is not, and why, checked against routes/api.php on the v5-stable branch.
• Retry with full-jitter exponential backoff, configurable through RetryPolicy and InvoiceNinjaClient::with_retry_policy. Defaults to 3 retries. Retry-After is honoured when the server sends it.
• InvoiceNinjaClient::with_timeout and a DEFAULT_TIMEOUT of 60 seconds applied to every request.
• Typed responses for previously untyped endpoints: Statics, StaticItem, Currency, DateFormat, SearchResults, SearchHit, HealthCheck, and PhpVersion.
• statics_as, search_as, and health_check_as as generic escape hatches for callers who need to pin a shape the typed models leave in extra.
• tests/client_requests.rs: 50 tests covering the request plumbing against a loopback wiremock server. No network or credentials required.
• RetryPolicy::max_elapsed, a ceiling on the time one call may spend across all attempts, defaulting to 120 seconds. The request timeout is per attempt, so without this the default policy could spend four minutes on a call that times out repeatedly.

Changed

• statics, search, and health_check return concrete types instead of being generic over T: DeserializeOwned.
• send_email now unwraps the data envelope, so T is the entity (Invoice, Quote, …) rather than a wrapper the caller had to model. It stays generic because the endpoint serves all four entity types.
• chart remains generic, deliberately: the eleven chart endpoints share no common response shape, so there is nothing to narrow to.
• The base URL is parsed and validated when the client is constructed. A missing scheme used to produce a 404 on every call instead of one error.
• list_all_* terminates on meta.pagination.total_pages when the server sends it, falling back to the short-page heuristic only when it does not.
• Error is now #[non_exhaustive], so later variants are not a breaking change. Matches on it need a catch-all arm.
• Error::Json is now a struct variant carrying an excerpt of the body that failed to decode. The serde message alone ("expected value at line 1 column 1") does not reveal that the response was, say, an HTML error page from a proxy or a login redirect from a wrong base URL.
• API errors with an empty or message-less body now report the status reason ("Not Found") instead of rendering blank.
• Error::Http now renders its whole cause chain. reqwest's own message stops at "error sending request for url (...)", leaving out the part that says why — "Connection refused", a DNS failure, a TLS handshake error — so anyone printing the error had no way to tell which it was.

Fixed

• list_all_* silently truncated results. The server caps page size at min(abs(per_page), 5000), so a page shorter than requested did not mean the last page — the walk stopped early and returned a partial list as though it were complete. per_page is now clamped to the server maximum so the fallback heuristic holds.
• list_all_* with per_page(0) never terminated: the check got < 0 has no solution. It now falls back to the default page size, and a MAX_PAGES backstop raises Error::PaginationLimit rather than quietly truncating.
• Creating a recurring invoice or recurring expense failed after the record had been created: a real server returns frequency_id as the string "5" and the field was a strict integer. It now accepts a number or a numeric string.
• Creating a purchase order, location, or webhook from a default model was rejected by a real server. An unset PurchaseOrder.status_id, Location.country_id, or Webhook.format was sent as "", which the server turns into NULL and then refuses (a 500 for the purchase order and webhook, a 422 for the location). They are now left out of the request when empty.
• with_api_password refused a password containing a control character (a newline, say) with a misleading InvalidToken error. Such a password is now sent base64-encoded as X-API-PASSWORD-BASE64, the form the server's middleware accepts for exactly this.
• A payment whose invoices entry had a null or missing invoice_id or amount failed to decode the whole payment. Both now default.
• list_system_logs failed to decode against a real server. SystemLog's created_at and updated_at were typed as strings, following the OpenAPI spec, but the server sends integer timestamps. They are now i64, like every other model.
• Requests could hang indefinitely. reqwest applies no timeout of its own and none was configured.
• Ids were interpolated into request paths unescaped, so a /, ?, or # in an id changed which endpoint was addressed.

Security

• Ids used as URL path segments are escaped, and ids that are empty or consist only of dots are rejected. Escaping alone is insufficient: the WHATWG rules the url crate implements decode %2E back to . before resolving dot segments, so an escaped .. still collapsed the path. An empty id would have addressed the collection route, making delete_client("") mean DELETE /clients.
• POST is never replayed on a 5xx or timeout, since the server may have applied it before the response was lost and a replay would duplicate an invoice, payment, or email. A 429 is the exception — the server states it refused the request, so no work was done.
• The API token and password are held as headers marked sensitive, so neither appears in Debug output. reqwest's own Client debug prints its default headers, so this is the only thing keeping the token out of logs; there is now a regression test pinning it.

[0.1.0] - 2026-10-23

Added

• Initial release: async client for the Invoice Ninja v5 API covering clients, invoices, quotes, credits, payments, products, expenses, projects, tasks, and vendors.
