A migration guide for refactoring your application code from libp2p v0.30.x to v0.31.0.

## Types
Most of the type definitions in the libp2p configuration were `any` or were not included before this release. This might cause breaking changes on upstream projects relying on the previous provided types, as well as to libp2p modules implemented by the libp2p community.
## API
### Core API
`libp2p.dialProtocol` does not accept empty or null protocols returning a connection anymore and `dial` must be used instead.
We updated the connection manager options naming in `libp2p@0.29` but kept it backward compatible until now.
**Before**
```js
const node = await Libp2p.create({
connectionManager: {
minPeers: 0
}
})
```
**After**
```js
const node = await Libp2p.create({
connectionManager: {
minConnections: 0
}
})
```
You can see full details on how to configure the connection manager [here](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p/blob/master/doc/CONFIGURATION.md#configuring-connection-manager).
### Dialer and Keychain components
Internal property names to create a libp2p `Dialer` and `Keychain` were updated to reflect the properties naming in the libp2p configuration. These are internal modules of libp2p core and should not impact most of the users, but as it is possible to use them separately here follow the changes:
***Before**
```js
const dialer = new Dialer({
transportManager,
peerStore,
concurrency,
perPeerLimit,
timeout,
resolvers,
addressSorter
})
const keychain = new Keychain(datastore, {
passPhrase
})
```
**After**
```js
this.dialer = new Dialer({
transportManager,
peerStore,
maxParallelDials,
maxDialsPerPeer,
dialTimeout,
resolvers,
addressSorter
})
const keychain = new Keychain(datastore, {
pass
})
```
## Module Updates
With this release you should update the following libp2p modules if you are relying on them:
<!--Specify module versions in JSON for migration below.
One of the main changes in this new release is the update to `multiaddr@9.0.0`. This should also be updated in upstream projects to avoid several multiaddr versions in the bundle and to avoid potential problems when libp2p interacts with provided outdated multiaddr instances.
