News
====
Some user-visible changes are documented here. Version numbers have three
components, ``major.minor.patch``, with the following semantics:
- we increment ``major`` for a release which contains particularly significant
new features, enhancements and/or reworkings, whether or not upgrading to
the release will require changes to user consfigs (though usually it will);
- we increment ``minor`` for a release which does not satisfy the requirements
for incrementing ``major``, but where there are changes that could require
changes in user consfigs, except very obscure such consfigs; and
- we increment only ``patch`` for a release which includes no changes that we
think could require changes in user consfigs.
Note that the notion of consfig-breaking changes is more than just strict API
breaks, but also changes in behaviour which will likely require review by
sysadmins using Consfigurator to maintain their systems.
In summary, you should always be able to upgrade to a release which only
increments ``patch``, but if either of the other two components have changed,
you should review this document and see if your consfig needs updating.
1.3.2 (unreleased)
------------------
- Add LIBVIRT:KVM-BOOTS-LVM-LV and LIBVIRT:KVM-BOOTS-LVM-LV-FOR.
- Pass ``--batch`` and ``--no-tty`` to gpg(1) to avoid some tty issues.
Thanks to David Bremner.
- Fix a bug in DISK:HOST-LOGICAL-VOLUMES-EXIST that meant it would try to add
``/etc/fstab`` entries for each logical volume it created rather than for
each filesystem it tries to mount.
- FILE:HOST-DATA-UPLOADED and FILE:HOST-SECRET-UPLOADED can now upload
multiple files.
1.3.1 (2023-06-12)
------------------
- Add REAPPLIED and PERIODIC:REAPPLIED-AT-MOST property combinators.
1.3.0 (2023-03-17)
------------------
- Readtable:
- New reader macros ``#~m//`` and ``#~s///`` for shell- and Perl-style
regular expression matching and replacement.
- New reader macro ``#>>EOF>>`` which is like ``#>EOF>`` except that it
skips over the remainder of the current line and its newline. This is
more like how heredocs work in other languages.
- Support for indented heredocs, where the indentation of the lines of the
heredoc is stripped. This mode is activated by prepending a tilde to the
heredoc terminator. For example:
.. code-block:: none
(foo "argument 1" #>>~EOF>>
My line 1.
My line 2.
EOF)
The function receives ``"My line 1.\nMy line 2."``
This is a minor breaking change because heredoc terminators may no longer
begin with a tilde.
- Documentation:
- New manual section "Reader macros" discussing Consfigurator's named
readtable, including some usage reservations for the sake of future
extension.
- New tutorial, "Defining new properties".
- Extract docstrings and use them to generate API references in the manual.
It should now be possible to know what properties are available for your
use without having to read the source of properties modules.
- Miscellaneous:
- New Emacs major mode, ``consfigurator-lisp-mode``. This takes care of
informing Emacs that parts of the buffer are CL-INTERPOL, CL-HEREDOC and
our ``#~m//`` and ``#~s///`` strings, fixing SLIME's C-c C-c in certain
cases.
1.2.2 (2023-02-20)
------------------
- APT properties: add ``non-free-firmware`` section to generated sources
lists. On Debian bullseye and older this will cause apt updates to emit
harmless warnings.
- LXC:USER-CONTAINER and LXC:USER-CONTAINER-FOR are now unapplicable.
- Add LXC:USER-CONTAINER-STOPPED and FILE:EMPTY-DIRECTORY-DOES-NOT-EXIST.
1.2.0 (2022-11-29)
------------------
- APT properties now cache what packages have been explicitly installed and
removed this deployment. This should significantly speed up many
deployments. User properties which install or remove packages by calling
apt-get(8) or dpkg(1) directly might inadvertedly render the lists of
properties installed and removed invalid. Such properties should be changed
to call or apply the new APT:KNOWN-INSTALLED-REMOVED-PACKAGES-RESET property
to invalidate the cache.
- Fix a bug in FILE:SYMLINKED that meant that with at least GNU ln(1), the
property would fail to overwrite existing symbolic links in some cases.
- Fix a bug in FILE:DOES-NOT-EXIST which meant that it did nothing if only
some of the files that should not exist needed to be deleted.
- When recovering from a failed debootstrap, instead of just recursively
deleting the target directory, we now call EMPTY-REMOTE-DIRECTORY, to empty
it, instead. This is better when the target directory is a mount point.
1.1.1 (2022-09-18)
------------------
- Add FILE:CONTAINS-CONF-UNSPACED.
- PROPAPPLY now signals an error if asked to apply a property that has neither
``:APPLY`` nor ``:HOSTATTRS`` subroutines. This is primarily intended to
catch cases where the property is defined in a ``.lisp`` file that you
haven't yet added to your consfig's ``.asd`` file.
- APT:PROXY is now unapplicable.
- APT:INSTALLED, APT:INSTALLED-MINIMALLY and APT:REMOVED now always execute
apt-get(8). Previously they tried to determine whether the packages were
already installed or removed by parsing output from apt-cache(8), but the
implementation sometimes gave the wrong answer.
1.1.0 (2022-08-02)
------------------
- API change: DISK:HOST-VOLUMES-CREATED has been removed in favour of new
properties DISK:FIRST-DISK-INSTALLED-FOR and DISK:VOLUMES-INSTALLED-FOR.
- API change: INSTALLED:CHROOT-INSTALLED-TO-VOLUMES-FOR has been renamed to
INSTALLER:FILES-INSTALLED-TO-VOLUMES-FOR, and will now bootstrap a root
filesystem directly to the volumes if not supplied a chroot. The CHROOT
parameter has become a keyword parameter, and the required parameters have
changed from ``(HOST CHROOT VOLUMES)`` to ``(OPTIONS HOST VOLUMES)`` for
consistency with other property lambda lists.
The new property also includes a bugfix: we now rebuild the initramfs after
populating the crypttab.
- API change: DISK:WITH-OPENED-VOLUMES now includes volumes that were already
open, and their parents, in the connattrs.
- DISK:LUKS-CONTAINER: Add support for passing arbitrary options to
cryptsetup(8) when creating volumes, such as ``--cipher``.
- DISK:WITH-OPENED-VOLUMES, INSTALLER:FILES-INSTALLED-TO-VOLUMES-FOR and
DISK:VOLUMES-INSTALLED-FOR support a new ``LEAVE-OPEN`` argument to request
that opened volumes are not closed. This is useful for inspecting the
result of an installation, but must be used with caution: the next
deployment will assume the volumes have been manually closed.
1.0.3 (2022-06-29)
------------------
- Wrap calls to OSICAT:USER-INFO with a fallback to use getent(1). This fixes
cases where getpwnam(3) and getpwuid(3) can fail to load required NSS modules
because we have chrooted or similar.
- Consfigurator now converts some of its internal shell script snippets to
single lines before executing them, which improves debug output and the
readability of process names visible to remote commands like ps(1).
- Add PROG-CHANGES, USER:GROUP-EXISTS and INSTALLER:WITH-CLEANLY-INSTALLED-ONCE.
- ESEQPROPS-UNTIL can now be used with any condition class, not just those
subtyping FAILED-CHANGE.
- REBOOT:AT-END now falls back to shell ``sleep``-based scheduling when
shutdown(8) cannot schedule a reboot for the future.
- Fix a few bugs in FILE:CONTAINS-INI-SETTINGS.
- Fix FSTAB:HAS-ENTRIES-FOR-OPENED-VOLUMES for FAT32 filesystems.
1.0.1 (2022-05-11)
------------------
- Some enhancements to OS combinators.
- New data source to fetch passphrases from a `pass(1)`_ data store, thanks to
David Bremner.
