Apostrophe 3.32.0: Password reset, bundle optimization, and fixes

[BoDonkey]

Namaste Apostrophiles!

This release brings the password reset link to the login screen for Apostrophe 3. Registered users can now reset their password by email if this feature has been enabled. Take a look at the documentation for more info.

Developers have an additional option for project optimization with this release. The rebundleModules option allows for overriding code bundling from npm modules to provide the smallest and most specific payload of assets to the front-end.

A quick administrative note. Node 12 has passed the date for the official end-of-life support for security updates. We are no longer checking for compatibility with Node 12. If you are using an older version of Node, you should update to at least Node 14 (LTS).

Moving forward, the developers are back at enhancing the editor experience with work starting on the implementation of keyboard shortcuts and technical designs for page templating!

See the full changelogs below for details of this release and let your JavaScript juices flow this week!

Apostrophe 3.32.0

Adds

• Adds Reset Password feature to the login page. See the documentation for details on how to enable and configure this for best results.
• Allow the project-level developer to override bundling decisions by configuring the @apostrophecms/asset module. Check the asset module documentation for more information.
• The editor modal now allocates more space to area fields when possible, resolving common concerns about editing large widgets inside the editor modal.

Fixes

• Query builders for regular select fields have always accepted null to mean "do not filter on this property." Now this also works for dynamic select fields.
• The i18n UI state management now doesn't allow actions while it's busy.
• Fixed various localization bugs in the text of the "Update" dropdown menu.
• The singleton: true option for piece types now automatically implies showCreate: false.
• Remove browser console warnings by handling Tiptap Editor's breaking changes and duplicated plugins.

Enterprise modules

@apostrophecms-pro/advanced-permission 1.3.0

Note: this module allows admins much greater power in creating and assigning permissions to custom groups, but this requires a license upgrade. Contact us or see our new pricing page for more information.

Adds

• Filter the list of available roles per content-type.
  If a content type has editRole and publishRole set to editor, having Contributor available in the Role field
  is useless. It will have the same effect as selecting None. We now filter the list of available roles per content-type.
  We list only roles that will have an impact on whether the user can view, create, edit, publish or delete the
  piece/page.

@apostrophecms/multisite 3.9.2

Note: This module lets you have many ApostropheCMS websites running on a single codebase in a single Node.js process. Each has its own database, users, media uploads, etc. Sites can be created and managed via a dashboard site. This module requires a license upgrade. Contact us or see our new pricing page for more information.

Changes

3.9.2 2022-11-03

Backed out ill-considered DASHBOARD_HOSTNAME change, which did not cover enough functionality and probably never would cover enough to guarantee stability and performance at the same time. Instead, the sync-between-clouds assembly cloud tools command will be updated to address changes to DASHBOARD_HOSTNAME.

3.9.1 2022-11-03

URL determination based on DASHBOARD_HOSTNAME now correctly covers the _siteUrl property.

3.9.0 2022-11-03

• Allow DASHBOARD_HOSTNAME to implicitly override the base domain name regardless of what is configured in baseUrlDomains. Useful with feature branches.

Utilities

sanitize-html 2.8.0

This module provides a simple HTML sanitizer with a clear API.

Changes

• Upgrades htmlparser2 to new major version ^8.0.0. Thanks to Kedar Chandrayan for this contribution.

apostrophe-a3-schema-exporter 1.0.0

This module aids in the conversion of A2 projects into projects running A3. It provides a command line task that can iterate over the schema for all of the defined doc and widget types in an A2 project, outputting an A3 schema.js file for each.

Adds

• Initial release
