StackStorm v2.5.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2017-12-14 // over 6 years ago

  • ➕ Added

    
* ➕ Add new ``log_level`` runner parameter to Python runner. With this parameter, user can control
  which log messages generated by Python runner actions are output to action ``stderr``. For
  backward compatibility reasons it defaults to ``debug``.
  This functionality comes handy in situations when an action depends on an external library which
  logs a lot of information under ``debug``, but you only want to see messages with log level
  ``error`` or higher (or similar). (new feature) #3824
* ➕ Add stevedore related metadata to Python package setup.py files for runner packages. This way
  runners can be installed using pip and dynamically enumerated and loaded using stevedore and
  corresponding helper functions.

  All runners are now also fully fledged Python packages (previously they were single module
  Python packages which caused various install and distribution related issues when installing
  them via pip) (new feature)
* ➕ Add new ``search`` rule criteria comparison operator. Please refer to the documentation for
  usage. (new feature) #3833

* Now a more user-friendly error message is thrown if a cycle is found inside the Jinja template
  string (e.g. when parameter / variable references itself). (improvement) #3908
* 0️⃣ Jinja templates in default parameter values now render as live parameters, if no "real" live
  parameter was provided. This allows the template to render pre-schema validation, resulting
  in the intended value type. (improvement) #3892

🔄 Changed
    • ⚡️ Update the output of st2 execution {run,get} CLI command to colorize the value of the status attribute (green for succeeded, red for failed, etc. aka the same as for the output of st2 execution list command). (improvement) #3810

    • ⚡️ Update log messages in the datastore service to correctly use DEBUG log level instead of AUDIT. #3845
    • ➕ Add the ability of st2 key load to load keys from both JSON and YAML files. Files can now contain a single KeyValuePair, or an array of KeyValuePairs. (improvement) #3815
    • ➕ Add the ability of st2 key load to load non-string values (objects, arrays, integers, booleans) and convert them to JSON before going into the datastore, this conversion requires the user passing in the -c/--convert flag. (improvement) #3815
    • ⚡️ Update st2 key load to load all properties of a key/value pair, now secret values can be loaded. (improvement) #3815

    🛠 Fixed

    
* 🛠 Fix log messages generated by Python runner actions to include the correct action class name.
  Previously they always incorrectly used "ABCMeta" instead of the actual action class name.
  (bug fix) #3824
* 🛠 Fix ``st2 execution tail [last]`` CLI command so it doesn't throw an exception if there are no
  executions in the database. (bug fix) #3760 #3802
* 🛠 Fix edge case for workflows stuck in running state. When Mistral receives a connection error from
  the st2 API on requesting action execution, there's a duplicate action execution stuck in
  requested state. This leads to the st2resultstracker assuming the workflow is still running.
* 🛠 Fix a regression and a bug with no API validation being performed and API returning 500 instead
  of 400 status code if user didn't include any request payload (body) when hitting POST and PUT
  API endpoints where body is mandatory. (bug fix) #3864
* 🛠 Fix a bug in Python runner which would cause action log messages to be duplicated in action
  stderr output when utilizing action service / datastore service inside actions. (bug fix)
* 🛠 Fix performance issue on the CLI when formatting the output as JSON or YAML. (bug fix) #3697
