Introducing Regex and OpenApi

In this release we added some new exciting enterprise features, fixed a huge number of bugs and added features that will support the standalone working mode in sensenet.

Features

• We introduced Regex queries. This is an extension of the current Lucene query language and available everywhere when you execute a sensenet query.
• We introduced an experimental OpenApi implementation for content CRUD operations.
• From now on it is possible to download index documents through the REST API. This lets developers examine the index more closely when searching for issues.

Bug fixes

• We added a more informative error message to field update cases.
• Settings content files are not cached on the client anymore to avoid reverting back to an older version on admin UI.
• Indexing localized values and setting indexing info during import is fixed.
• The incremental naming error is fixed.
• Wildcard expression lowercase issue in a LINQ for sensenet environment is fixed.
• It is possible to fetch the Checked out to field of a settings content correctly.
• Content type definition Description is localized and indexed correctly.
• Prevent users from setting their birth dates in the future.
• Uploading an empty file on top of an existing file is possible through the REST API. Admin UI (client-side) fix is coming in a later release.

Testing and infrastructure

• We continued refactoring our storage configuration to use the new service API.
• Several providers have been refactored to use the new DI api.
• ISnService and tracer instances, Binary provider, OData operation inspector and the indexing activity feature also use the new DI api.
• We continued our efforts towards a standalone sensenet install package that developers can use in a container environment.
