StackStorm/st2 v2.4.0

on GitHub

https://stackstorm.com/2017/08/24/whats-stackstorm-2-4-already/

Added

• Add sample passive sensor at contrib/examples/sensors/echo_flask_app. (improvement) #3667

• Add pack config into action context. This is made available under the config_context key.
  #3183

• Add limit/"-n" flag and pagination note(stderr) in the CLI for st2 key list.
  Default limit is 50. #3641

• Implement pause and resume for Mistral workflow and Action Chain. Pause and resume will
  cascade down to subworkflows and/or subchains. Pause from a subworkflow or subchain
  will cascade up to the parent workflow. (new feature)

• Add pack index endpoint. It will made a request for every index defined in st2.conf and return
  the combined list of available packs.

• Added a new field timestamp_f to the GELF logging formatter that represents
  the time of the logging even in fractional time (resolution is dependent on your
  system). This allows adjacent logging events to be distinguished more accurately
  by the time they occurred.

• Require new STREAM_VIEW RBAC permission type to be able to view /v1/stream stream API
  endpoint. (improvement) #3676

• Add new ?events, ?action_refs and ?execution_ids query params to /v1/stream/
  API endpoint. Those query parameters allow user to filter out which events to receive based
  on the event type, action ref and execution id. By default, when no filters are provided, all
  events are returned. (new feature) #3677

• Show count of pack content (actions, sensors, triggers, rules and aliases) to be registered
  before the st2 pack install so that the delay in install is not mistaken as no response
  or hanging command. (improvement) #3586 #3675

• Allow user to specify value for "array of objects" parameter type using a simple notation
  when using st2 run CLI command. (improvement) #3646 #3670

Changed

• Rename ST2 action runner cancel queue from st2.actionrunner.canel
  to st2.actionrunner.cancel. (improvement) #3247
• Install scripts and documentation has been updated to install MongoDB 3.4 by default (previously
  3.2 was installed by default). If you want to upgrade an existing installation, please follow
  official instructions at https://docs.mongodb.com/v3.4/release-notes/3.4-upgrade-standalone/.
  (improvement)

Removed

• The feature to use local config.yaml in packs is removed.

Fixed

• Fix retrying in message bus exchange registration. (bug fix) #3635 #3638

  Reported by John Arnold.

• Fix message bus related race condition which could, under some rare scenarios, cause first
  published message to be ignored because there were no consumers for that particular queue yet.
  This could happen in a scenario when API service came online and served a request before action
  runner service came online.

  This also fixes an issue with Redis kombu backend not working. (bug fix) #3635 #3639 #3648

• Fix logrotate configuration to delete stale compressed st2actionrunner logs #3647

• Fix trace list API endpoint sorting by start_timestamp, using ?sort_desc=True|False query
  parameters and by passing --sort=asc|desc parameter to the st2 trace list CLI command.
  Descending order by default.(bug fix) #3237 #3665

• Fix pack index health endpoint. It now points to the right controller. #3672

• Fix 'pack register content' failures appearing on some slower systems by lifting action timeout #3685
