1.4

1.4 - February 19, 2018

Status
The mup status command gives an overview of what is running on the servers and shows any problems plugins detected.

Reverse Proxy

• The reverse proxy is no longer an "experimental feature"
• Add support for customizing the generated nginx config
• Add mup proxy nginx-config command to view the generated config
• HTTP_FORWARDED_COUNT defaults to 1 when using the reverse proxy (@jehartzog)
• Fix verifying deployment when using the reverse proxy.
• Fix deploying when app.env.PORT is set to a value other than 80
• Fix setting up proxy when using a non-root user

Mongo

• Oplog is automatically enabled. To use, set app.env.MONGO_OPLOG_URL to mongodb://mongodb/local (@edemaine)
• The Start Mongo task now waits until mongo has sucessfully started before finishing
• If mongo fails to start, the Start Mongo task will now fail

Depreciations

meteor.ssl, meteor.nginx, and meteor.docker.imageFrontendServer are depreciated. It uses a different implementation for custom certificates and lets encrypt, each with different features and restrictions. Also, the custom certificate implementation has security problems. The reverse proxy should be used instead. It doesn't have the security problems, uses the same implementation for custom certificates and lets encrypt, and has many additional features. Learn how to use the reverse proxy in the docs.

proxy.shared.clientUploadLimit is depreciated. Use proxy.clientUploadLimit instead, which allows each app to have a different value.

Other Changes

• mup init will create a .deploy folder when run in the same folder as a Meteor app
• When mup can find a meteor app near to where mup init is run, the default config's app.path will be the path to that app
• When a deploy fails, the last 200 instead of 100 lines of the app's logs are shown
• More of the output is shown when a command fails
• When copying a file fails with the error No such file, it will tell the user to run mup setup to fix it
