4.0.0-rc.1 - 2024-10-30

Bug Fixes

• (deployments) Deprecate v1 endpoint for listing deployments
  (MEN-7543) (879b589) by @kjaskiewiczz

  We deprecated GET v1 /deployments/deployments endpoint because of an
  issue with "search" query parameter behavior. As a replacement we
  introduce v2 version of the endpoint, where we replaced "search"
  parameter with "id" and "name" parameters.

• (deviceconfig) Enable multiplatform build
  (QA-673) (fbbe646) by @oldgiova

  The required TARGETOS and TARGETARCH variables were missing from the
  Dockerfile.

• (gui) Fixed an issue that could prevent browsers from following programmatically triggered downloads
  (f2b6189) by @mzedel

  • relative download addresses seem not to be followed, switched to absolute instead

• (iot-core) Incosistent serialization format for device private key
  (MEN-7478) (6deadef) by @alfrunes

  The generated key is serialized using SEC 1 (RFC5915) ASN.1 encoding,
  but encoded to PEM using PKCS8 (RFC5208) block header/trailer.

• Aligned identity attribute usage with scoped inventory data to prevent overriding custom naming attributes with name tags
  (MEN-7218) (9d82ea1) by @mzedel

Features

• (deployments) Add filter field to deployment object
  (MEN-7416) (fec5b91) by @kjaskiewiczz

  The filter field contains information about devices targeted by the
  deployment.

• (gui) Enabled webhook scope selection
  (MEN-7455) (cec277d) by @mzedel

• (inventory) Add support for "$in" operator in the device search API
  (MEN-7667) (fd4eaf0) by @kjaskiewiczz

  (MEN-7403) (c04d736) by @mzedel

  (MEN-7541) (afb1566) by @kjaskiewiczz

  (ff439c9) by @alfrunes

  The version command will display the app version (linked at build
  time) as well as runtime version and commit SHA1.

Build

• (docker) Add build stage to Dockerfiles
  (ba3692e) by @alfrunes

  The Dockerfiles are now self-contained by moving the build stage into
  the Dockerfile.

• (docker) Build images on BUILDPLATFORM
  (44e5b7f) by @alfrunes

• (docker) Use make(1) when building inside docker images
  (153269e) by @alfrunes

  For consistent builds.

• (make) Update docker targets to use updated Dockerfiles
  (11f26d6) by @alfrunes

  Refactored common parts to parent directory.

• (make) Change default target to docker and add variable TAGS
  (92ac12a) by @alfrunes

  Containers are the primary build artifacts for this repo so it makes
  sense to build them by default.

• (make) Fix acceptance test targets after refactor
  (70919bd) by @alfrunes

  Put common acceptance test targets in Makefile.common and made
  exceptions for create-artifact-worker and reporting.

• (make) Do not expand go shell commands unconditionally
  (1c68b83) by @alfrunes

• (make) Run acceptance tests without rebuilding the containers
  (ce241cc) by @alfrunes

  Removed the dependency on docker-acceptance for the
  test-acceptance-run.

• (make) test-unit target runs in same environment as build
  (141ea40) by @alfrunes

• (make) Change TAGS behavior to always include required build tags
  (5bae608) by @alfrunes

• (make) Rename DOCKER_ARGS to DOCKER_BUILDARGS, TAGS to BUILDTAGS
  (1a97891) by @alfrunes

  It seems like Gitlab has a built in TAGS env variable which conflicts
  with the Make environment.

• (make) Add docker-pull target for pulling images
  (37f4391) by @alfrunes

• (make) Define DOCKER_PLATFORM template as multiline variable
  (0db0c9a) by @alfrunes

• (make) Fix tag override for docker-acceptance
  (7f0b260) by @alfrunes

  MENDER_IMAGE_TAG_TEST should set the tag when building the target.

• (make) Remove make 4.4 function let
  (75f980e) by @alfrunes

• (make) Added target docker-publish for publishing images
  (c400b04) by @alfrunes

• (make) Split MENDER_PUBLISH_REGISTRY into registry and repository
  (e27c770) by @alfrunes

• (test) Force serialize unit tests for deviceauth
  (a0ab55e) by @alfrunes

Check

• Make sed(1) Linux compatible again
  (1271396) by @alfrunes

  Replace flag -i='' with -i.bak and removing the files.

Refac

• (compose) Refactor SeaweedFS topology and optimize startup/shutdown time
  (fe7ee2e) by @alfrunes

  Instead of running SeaweedFS as a monolith using the server command,
  we explicitly launch all services in different containers. It appears
  that the server command has some issues when initializing the master
  and sometimes enter a deadlock the healthcheck interval is too low at
  startup. Moreover, running the services in different containers makes it
  easier to debug and interpret the logs.

• (iotcore) Break on errors instead of falling through
  (733f8ab) by @alfrunes

  Using long chains of fallthrough error conditions makes it very
  difficult to read and error prone to extend. Refactoring to use common
  coding patterns instead.

• Use an overlay directory to create Makefiles and Dockerfiles
  (85e93e0) by @alfrunes

  Allows for easier individual customization required for accepatnce
  tests.

Revert

• (docker) Revert generate-delta-worker dockerfile
  (d205b3e) by @alfrunes

  Reverts the dockerfile to the upstream docker file with the two
  exceptions of copying the binaries from this repositories rather than
  relying on master docker images.

• Change docker entrypoint to launch workflows worker
  (0d39c96) by @alfrunes

  This was done by mistake when updating the Dockerfile for the monorepo.
