============================
Invenio v2.0.2 is released
============================
Invenio v2.0.2 was released on April 17, 2015.
About
-----
Invenio is a digital library framework enabling you to build your own
digital library or document repository on the web.
Security fixes
--------------
+ celery:
- Forces Celery to only accept msgpack content when using standard
configuration. This disallows pickle messages which can be used
for remote code execution. (#3003)
+ global:
- Disables all attempts to serve directory listings for directories
found under static root.
Incompatible changes
--------------------
+ celery:
- If you use any Celery serializer other than msgpack, you must
update configuration variable CELERY_ACCEPT_CONTENT to include
that serializer.
+ pidstore:
- Refactors DataCite provider to use the new external DataCite API
client.
- Removes DataCite API client from Invenio.
New features
------------
+ docs:
- Adds "Code of Conduct" to the "Community" documentation.
- Adds new fast track deprecation policy.
- Documents commit message labels used by developers (such as NEW,
SECURITY, FIX, etc.) used in automatic generation of structured
release notes. (#2856)
+ global:
- Adds a `inveniomanage config locate` command to request the
location of the instance config file.
- Adds new configurable variable `INVENIO_APP_CONFIG_ENVS` that can
be set both from `invenio.cfg` and OS environment. Application
factory iterates over comma separated list of configuration
variable names and updates application config with equivalent OS
environment value. (#2858)
+ template:
- Adds 'u' filter that converts str to unicode in Jinja2 templates
since support for str has been deprecated. Example: `{{ mystr|u
}}`. (#2862)
Improved features
-----------------
+ docs:
- Adds example of how to deprecate a feature and includes
deprecation policy in documentation.
+ global:
- Moves datacite API wrapper to external package.
- Escapes all unicode characters in Jinja2 templates.
+ installation:
- Apache virtual environments are now created with appropriate
`WSGIDaemonProcess` user value, taken from the configuration
variable `CFG_BIBSCHED_PROCESS_USER`, provided it is set. This
change makes it easier to run Invenio under non-Apache user
identity.
- Apache virtual environments are now created with appropriate
`WSGIPythonHome` directive so that it would be easier to run
Invenio from within Python virtual environments.
+ jsonalchemy:
- Introduces support for accepting MARC fields having any
indicator. (#1722 #2075)
Bug fixes
---------
+ admin:
- Adds `admin.js` bundle that loads `select2.js` library on `/admin`
pages. (#2690 #2781)
+ assets:
- Implements `__deepcopy__` method for `webassets.filter.option` in
order to fix unexpected behavior of the `option` class contructor.
(#2777 #2864 #2921)
+ documents:
- Flask-Login import in field definition. (#2905)
- Safer upgrade recipe for migrations from the old document storage
model (used in v1.1) to the new document storage model (used in
v1.2).
+ global:
- Drops support for serving directories in Apache site configuration
to avoid problems with loading '/admin' url without trailing slash
that attempts to serve the static directory of the same
name. (#2470 #2943)
+ installation:
- Adds Babel as setup requirements for installing compile_catalog
command.
+ jsonalchemy:
- Fixes the definition of time_and_place_of_event_note,
series_statement and source_of_description fields.
+ oairepository:
- Switches keys in CFG_OAI_METADATA_FORMATS configuration mapping.
(#2962)
- Amends bfe_oai_marcxml element since get_preformatted_record does
not return a tuple anymore.
+ search:
- Fixes portalbox text overflow and and syntax error in CSS.
(#3023)
- Collection names containing slashes are now supported again.
However we recommend not to use slashes in collection names; if
slashes were wanted for aesthetic reasons, they can be added in
visible collection translations. (#2902)
+ sorter:
- Comparison function of record tags uses space concatened string
from list of all tags values. (#2750)
Notes
-----
+ assets:
- Adds deprecation warning when LESS_RUN_IN_DEBUG is used. (#2923)
+ global:
- Deprecates use of invenio.utils.datacite:DataCite (to be removed
in Invenio 2.2).
- External authentication methods are being deprecated. Please use
`invenio.modules.oauthclient` or Flask-SSO instead. (#1083)
- Recreate Apache site configurations using new template. Run
following command: `inveniomanage apache create-config`.
- Deprecates custom remote debuggers. Please use native Werkzeug
debugger or other (*)pdb equivalents. (#2945)
- Adds deprecation warning for `invenio.ext.jinja2hacks` and all
detected non-ascii strings usage in templates mainly coming from
legacy (1.x) modules. (#2862)
+ installation:
- Limits version of SQLAlchemy<=1.0 and SQLAlchemy-Utils<=0.30.
+ oairepository:
- Changes current behavior of OAI-PMH server for logged in users to
take into account all records a user can view and not only public
records.
