## New Features
### Support Photon OS (#340)

### Specify a directory to store image cache (#341)
Trivy could specify a directory to store the vulnerability database, but could not specify a directory to store image cache. Now, you can specify it with `--cache-dir`.
```
$ trivy --cache-dir /path/to/cache alpine:3.10
```
### Add --token-headers option (#326)
Trivy uses `Trivy-Token` as a default token header. You can specify a custom header by `--token-header`.
```
$ trivy server --token foo --token-header x-trivy-token
```
```
$ trivy client --token foo --token-header x-trivy-token
```
### Show progress when downloading the DB (#317)
```
$ trivy alpine:3.10
