ipfs-cluster changelog

v0.3.0 - 2017-11-15

This release introduces Raft 1.0.0 and incorporates deep changes to the management of the cluster peerset.

• Features
  • Upgrade Raft to 1.0.0 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#194 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#196
  • Support Snaps | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#234 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#228 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#232
  • Rotating backups for ipfs-cluster-data | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#233
  • Bring documentation up to date with the code ipfs/ipfs-cluster#223

Bugfixes:

• Fix docker startup | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#216 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#217
• Fix configuration save | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#213 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#214
• Forward progress updates with IPFS-Proxy | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#224 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#231
• Delay ipfs connect swarms on boot and safeguard against panic condition | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#238
• Multiple minor fixes | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#236
  • Avoid shutting down consensus in the middle of a commit
  • Return an ID containing current peers in PeerAdd
  • Do not shut down libp2p host in the middle of peer removal
  • Send cluster addresses to the new peer before adding it
  • Wait for configuration save on init
  • Fix error message when not enough allocations exist for a pin

This releases introduces some changes affecting the configuration file and some breaking changes affecting go and the REST APIs:

• The consensus.raft section of the configuration has new options but should be backwards compatible.
• The Consensus component interface has changed, LogAddPeer and LogRmPeer have been replaced by AddPeer and RmPeer. It additionally provides Clean and Peers methods. The consensus/raft implementation has been updated accordingly.
• The api.ID (used in REST API among others) object key ClusterPeers key is now a list of peer IDs, and not a list of multiaddresses as before. The object includes a new key ClusterPeersAddresses which includes the multiaddresses.
• Note that --bootstrap and --leave flags when calling ipfs-cluster-service will be stored permanently in the configuration (see ipfs/ipfs-cluster#235).

v0.2.1 - 2017-10-26

This is a maintenance release with some important bugfixes.

• Fixes:
  • Dockerfile runs ipfs-cluster-service instead of ctl | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#194 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#196
  • Peers and bootstrap entries in the configuration are ignored | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#203 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#204
  • Informers do not work on 32-bit architectures | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#202 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#205
  • Replication factor entry in the configuration is ignored | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#208 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#209

The fix for 32-bit architectures has required a change in the IPFSConnector interface (FreeSpace() and Reposize() return uint64 now). The current implementation by the ipfshttp module has changed accordingly.

v0.2.0 - 2017-10-23

• Features:

  • Basic authentication support added to API component | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#121 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#147 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#179
  • Copy peers to bootstrap when leaving a cluster | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#170 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#112
  • New configuration format | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#162 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#177
  • Freespace disk metric implementation. It's now the default. | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#142 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#99

• Fixes:

  • IPFS Connector should use only POST | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#176 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#161
  • ipfs-cluster-ctl exit status with error responses | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#174
  • Sharness tests and update testing container | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#171
  • Update Dockerfiles | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#154 | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#185
  • ipfs-cluster-service: Do not run service with unknown subcommands | ipfs/ipfs-cluster#186

This release introduces some breaking changes affecting configuration files and go integrations:

• Config: The old configuration format is no longer valid and cluster will fail to start from it. Configuration file needs to be re-initialized with ipfs-cluster-service init.
• Go: The restapi component has been renamed to rest and some of its public methods have been renamed.
• Go: Initializers (New<Component>(...)) for most components have changed to accept a Config object. Some initializers have been removed.
