2.0.5

Release 2.0.5

After a lot of work a new release of the EPICS Archiver Appliance. Lots of changes have been made and this is a major release, so make sure to test thoroughly before pushing into production. Bug reports are very welcome!

Overview

Breaking Changes

Please note the breaking change:

• log4j updated to log4j2 (need a new log configuration file)

  To migrate, the log4j.properties file needs to be changed to a log4j2.xml file. See an example file in the documentation

• The build process has also been overhauled with a new build tool.

  Please see the developers guide and the README for how to use it. Site specific builds should still work, and can now specify a folder outside of the src root.

New Features

• #193: Field modifiers in pv names

  Now you are able to submit a channel name such as PV:Temp.{'dbnd':{'rel':0.1}}
  For more information on available field modifiers see the EPICS documentation

• #193: Support for json input of a pv list to more of the api endpoints

  The getPVStatus endpoint
  now accepts input of the form:
  [ {"pv": "PVNAME1"}, {"pv": "PVNAME2"} ]

• #223: Retrieval Analytics

  Adds some information on number of requests on each PV (since last appliance reboot) to the getPVDetails endpoint.

• #207: Allow each WAR to run on different ip addresses

  This means if running each war file in a different docker container, they can all have different ip addresses.

• #150: Ability to set PV Access or Channel Access as the default protocol

  Setting org.epics.archiverappliance.mgmt.bpl.ArchivePVAction.defaultAccessProtocol in archappl.properties to PVA or CA changes the default protocl for submitting PVs to be archived.

• #241: The list of aliases now appears in pvDetails endpoint

• #268 Meta fields returned with GetDataAtTime endpoint (which should be more efficient and get last value before timestamp if no data on timestamp)

• #260: Option for not looking up the lastKnownTimestamp on appliance startup

  Using the parameter org.epics.archiverappliance.engine.archivePVSonStartup.determineLastKnownEventFromStores
  Also adds a parameter org.epics.archiverappliance.engine.epics.server_ioc_drift_seconds for an allowed clock drift between IOC and archiver appliance

• #173 + #258: Able redirects in retrieval engine (so appliance doesn't need to copy data to host machine before sending)

  Using the parameter org.epics.archiverappliance.retrieval.DataRetrievalServlet.proxyRetrievalRequest

• #261: Paused PV count is now cached.

• #219 A new default theme without any site specific styling

Development changes

• #172: PVAccess library updated to phoebus one
• #149 + #176: Build tool changed to gradle.
• #170: Third party libraries updated
• #243: Documentation now published using read the docs
• #265,#266 Docker builds are now available from github

1.1.0

Winter 2022 Release

Mostly bug fixes; especially #142. Also some long standing pull requests; thanks to everyone who contributed!

Also, finally shifting to semantic versioning - we're starting at 1.1.0.

JDK 16+/Redundancy

JDK 16+/Redundancy

Starting with this release, we target JDK 16+ for the appliance. This release also has limited support for redundancy. We've been testing this release for a few weeks now and it seems to be stable. Please reach out if you have issues/questions.

JDK 12/Tomcat 9 release

Starting with this release, we target JDK 12+ and Tomcat 9+ for the appliance. We've been testing this combination for a few months now and it seems to be stable. The migration seems reasonably straightforward; but it is a migration and not a simple deployRelease. Please reach out if you have issues/questions.

Fall 2018 Release

This contains a fix for #69.

There is also a fix for some exceptions that were cluttering up the log from the Fall 2018 release.

The viewer also adds support for simple relative dates; for example, http://archiver/retrieval/ui/viewer/archViewer.html?pv=VPIO:IN20:111:VRAW&from=-1w&to=-5d

Oct 2018 Release

Mostly bug fixes.

Many bug fixes in the viewer.
Support for getting data for multiple PV's using POST
Circular proxies - A proxies B; B proxies A.

Please note that the build associated with this release is broken and does not seem to contain the getting data for multiple PV's using POST. Most likely, I uploaded an older build by mistake.
