Mini Progrram Gray Release

This is the introduction of Mini-program gray release.

Everytime before you golive the mini program version, you have to choose a release strategy. If it's the first version, you have to choose it full release.

Gray release policy#

  1. Full Release
  2. Scale Release
  3. Whitelist Release

Full Release#

Full release means it will release the version directly.

Scale Release#

Scale Release means only a part of users can access to this version, the others will access it's last version. For exmaple: if developers set scale release 10, that means only 10% users will access this version base on same sdk compability.

Example:

2.36.22.1.090% -> 1.2.1 10% -> 1.2.2
