4.2.0 (2012/02/16)

4.2.0 introduces the ability to package a glu script as a precompiled class (or set of classes) inside one (or more) jar file(s). As a result, a glu script can inherit from another class as well as have external (to glu) dependencies! Check :ref:`glu-script-packaging` for more info.

  • Implemented glu-118: Add classpath / compiled glu script capability
  • Fixed glu-120: Release user can't load model via the cli
  • Fixed glu-121: Admin user can't load model via the cli
  • Fixed glu-124: REST api should not use current logged in user session
  • Implemented glu-125: add extra link shortcut in the dashboard
  • Implemented glu-126: Add REST api for manipulating fabrics

4.1.1 (2012/01/27)

Note

Issue 116 introduces a change in the default handling of delta vs error (requested by both LinkedIn and Orbitz): when an application is not running and there is a delta, it is better to treat it as an error instead of a simple delta because it represents the fact that something is wrong. You can revert to the previous behavior (delta is never treated as an error) by adding the configuration parameter to your (console) configuration file:

console.deltaService.stateDeltaOverridesDelta = false
  • Fixed glu-115: NPE when creating undeploy/redeploy plan for a model with child/parent relationship
  • Fixed glu-116: DELTA takes priority over ERROR in the UI
  • Fixed glu-117: shell.fetch generates Authorization header when not required

4.1.0 (2011/12/29)

Warning

The following configuration parameters have changed in the console configuration file. If you are using the feature restricting file access on an agent then you need to rename them prior to starting the new console when upgrading:

console.authorizationService.unrestrictedLocation  -> plugins.StreamFileContentPlugin.unrestrictedLocation
plugins.StreamFileContentPlugin.unrestrictedRole (new and optional value)

This version of glu adds the concept of plugins to the orchestration engine/console which allows you to enhance and/or tweak the behavior of glu. Typical uses cases are the ability to entirely change the authentication mechanism used by glu, send a notification when a deployment ends, prevent a deployment by the wrong user or at the wrong time, etc... Check the orchestration engine documentation for more information about plugins. This new version sets up the infrastructure for plugins and adds a handful of hooks. Future versions will contain more hooks (depending on user needs).

List of tickets

  • Fixed glu-113: Exception with customized dashboard
  • Implemented glu-114: Adding concept of plugin to glu

4.0.0 (2011/11/17)

What is new in 4.0.0 ?

Warning

2 configuration parameters have changed in the console configuration file and you need to rename them prior to starting the new console when upgrading (see the :ref:`configuration section <console-configuration>` for more details on the values):

model  -> shortcutFilters
system -> model

4.0.0 contains a major redesign of the console with an easier to use interface and ability to create custom dashboards.

  • Top navigation changes:
    • added Agents tab which lists all the agents (nodes) with direct access to individual agents
    • renamed Plans into Deployments
    • System tab is gone and has been replaced with a combination of the Model tab and the Plans subtab in the dashboard
    • Model tab is now used to view the models previously loaded as well as load a new one
    • Fabric selection is now a drop down (same for filter shortcuts (All [product]))
  • Dashboard is now customizable and a user can create different dashboards (see the :ref:`dashboard section<console-dashboard>` for details). The dashboard represents a table view of the delta. Both columns and rows can be customized:
    • columns can be customized: ability to add/remove/move any column. Clicking on a column name does a 'group by' on the column and make it the first column (same functionality as the 'group by checkbox' from the previous version). What is rendered in the column is customizable, from the sort order to the grouping functionality (when using summary view)
    • rows can be customized: you can add a filter to the model which essentially filters which row is displayed. Clicking on a value in a cell now adds a filter (this functionality existed with the difference that it was replacing instead of adding). You can of course remove a filter.
    • to customize the dashboard, there is a new subtab for it: Customize (this gives you access to the raw json representation of the dashboard which you can then tweak, like moving columns around or adding/removing new ones)
    • the first subtab on the dashboard allows you to quickly switch between your saved dashboards and also contains a very useful Save as New entry which allows you to save what you see as a new dashboard (so instead of tweaking the json, you can add filters and move columns around and then save it as a new dashboard which you can then tweak)
  • Dashboard selection is now sticky which means if you move around and come back to the dashboard it will be in the same state. This is used for the Plans subtab of the dashboard which allows you to act on the delta: actions will be based on the filter currently set. If you want to act on the full system (old System tab), simply clear all filters.
  • You can now give a name to your model and it will be displayed in addition to the SHA-1 (metadata.name)
  • Downgraded security level for model manipulation (load/save) from ADMIN to RELEASE
  • Clicking on the name of an agent in the dashboard table used to link to the agent. By default it now behaves like any other value: adding a filter. You can now access an agent using the Agents tab. If you want to revert to the previous behavior, use this configuration property: dashboardAgentLinksToAgent: true in console.defaults.
  • Renamed console.defaults.model into console.defaults.shortcutFilters: this functionality is now a simple shortcut that allows to switch between various predefined filters (example of usage: changing zones, changing products, changing teams, etc...)
  • Renamed console.defaults.system into console.defaults.model: to be consistent with the UI where you are looking at models

List of tickets

  • Implemented glu-17: Feature Request: make console views navigation friendly (bookmarkable)
  • Implemented glu-28: Feature Request: Add dates to the table at /console

  • Fixed glu-108: Key mistake in the summary section in the documentation

3.4.0 (2011/10/10)

A few changes to the agent (requires upgrade):

  • Now the agent saves its fabric in ZooKeeper on boot (since it can be overriden on the command line, it ensures that the console sees the same value!)
  • The agent offers a /config REST api after full boot (which allows to change the fabric after the agent has booted (but it still requires a manual agent reboot... will be implemented later))
  • Fixed timing issue on auto upgrade
  • Fixed the order in which properties are read to make sure that properties assigned in a previous run are used as default values and never override new values!

Several new REST apis:

  • GET /-/: list all fabrics
  • GET /-/agents: list agent -> fabric association
  • PUT /<fabric>/agent/<agent>/fabric: assign a fabric to an agent
  • DELETE /<fabric>/agent/<agent>/fabric: clear the fabric for an agent (also added to the UI Admin/View agents fabric)
  • DELETE /<fabric>/agent/<agent>: decommission and agent (clear ZooKeeper of all agent information) (also added to the UI Admin/View agents fabric)

Upgraded to linkedin-utils-1.7.1 and linkedin-zookeeper-1.4.0 to fix #95

List of tickets:

  • Implemented glu-35: Add 'decommission' a node/agent to the console

3.2.0 (2011/07/31)

Enhanced REST API by exposing more functionalities (agent upgrade, deployments, plans). Note that the REST call HEAD /plan/<planId>/execution/<executionId> now returns a header called X-glu-completion (the old one X-LinkedIn-GLU-completion is still returned for backward compatibility).

  • Fixed glu-81: Sometimes ste.message is null. It is null when the exception is java.util
  • Fixed glu-82: Add some spacing around the pagination items.

  • Added Shell.httpPost method

3.0.0 (2011/06/25)

What is new in 3.0.0 ?

3.0.0 adds the following features:

  • :ref:`parent/child relationship <static-model-entries-parent>` which adds the capability of decoupling the lifecycle of a parent and a child (typical examples being deploying a webapp inside a webapp container or deploying a bundle in an OSGi container)
  • define the desired state of an entry in the model (:ref:`entryState <static-model-entries-entryState>`) which, for example, allows you to deploy an application without starting it
  • The console is no longer precomputing the various plans (deploy, bounce, undeploy and redeploy) and they are now computed on demand only
  • The delta is now a first class citizen and a new rest API allows to :ref:`access it <goe-rest-api-get-model-delta>`
  • The core of the orchestration engine (delta, planner and deployer) has been fully rewritten to offer those new capabilities (now in java which should provide some performance improvements over groovy).

List of tickets

  • Fixed glu-18: Grails Runtime Exception (500) when viewing a deployment status (thanks to Ran!)
  • Fixed glu-21: The model should allow for expressing which state is desired
  • Fixed glu-33: Mountpoint disappears from agent view when not in model
