Kinto/kinto 8.1.0

on GitHub

Internal changes

• Update the Docker compose configuration to use memcache for the cache backend (#1405)
• Refactor the way postgresql.storage.create_from_settings ignores settings (#1410)

Operational concerns

• The schema for the Postgres storage backend has changed. This
  changes some ID columns to use the "C" collation, which will make
  delete_all queries faster. (See
  e.g. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/indexes-opclass.html,
  which says "If you do use the C locale, you do not need the
  xxx_pattern_ops operator classes, because an index with the default
  operator class is usable for pattern-matching queries in the C
  locale.") This may change the default sort order and grouping of
  record IDs.

New features

• New setting kinto.backoff_percentage to only set the backoff header a portion of the time.
• make tdd allows development in a TDD style by rerunning tests every time a file is changed.

Bug fixes

• Optimize the Postgres collection_timestamp method by one query. It
  now only makes two queries instead of three.
