devspace-sh/devspace v5.6.0

on GitHub

New Features

• DevSpace will now replace '#' in image tags with random characters, which gives you more freedom to specify image tags with random components (#1188):

images:
  app:
    tags:
    # Each single hashtag will be replaced with a random character
    - my-###-latest
    - ${DEVSPACE_GIT_BRANCH}-#####
    - ${USER}-#####
    - '############'

• DevSpace now allows you to specify tag(registry/repo/image) and image(registry/repo/image) in helm values to only insert a tag or the image name without any modification. This is useful for helm charts that split image and tag (#1188):

images:
  default:
    image: registry/repo/image
    tags:
    - random-#####
deployments:
- name: my-deployment
  helm:
    chart: ...
    values: 
      # Will be replaced by devspace to -> imageWithTag: registry/repo/image:random-xAhgW
      imageWithTag: registry/repo/image
      # Will be replaced by devspace to -> image: registry/repo/image
      image: image(registry/repo/image)
      # Will be replaced by devspace to -> tag: random-xAhgW
      tag: tag(registry/repo/image)

• New dev.logs.selectors option that allows you to specify additional label selectors to select pods you want to stream logs from:

images:
  default:
    image: registry/repo/image
dev:
  logs:
    images: 
    # Selects all pods that use the image default (registry/repo/image)
    - default
    selectors:
    # Selects all pods with the given label selector and streams the logs to the console
    - labelSelector:
        abc: def
      containerName: optional
      namespace: optional

• Hooks can now be executed in a container by specifying hooks.*.where.container:

...
hooks:
- command: "echo"
  args: ["Hello from within the container!"]
  where: 
    container:
      imageName: default
      # Or select via labelSelector etc.
      # labelSelector: ...
  when:
    after:
      deployments: my-deployment
...

• Hooks for images can now be specified for specific images instead of only "all":

images:
  image-1:
    image: registry/repo/image
  image-2:
    image: registry/repo/image
hooks:
- command: "echo"
  args: ["before", "all"]
  when:
    before:
      images: all
- command: "echo"
  args: ["before", "image-1"]
  when:
    before:
      images: image-1
- command: "echo"
  args: ["before", "image-2"]
  when:
    before:
      images: image-2

• New flags --container, --pod, --label-selector and --pick for command devspace restart
• New config option hooks.*.background and hooks.*.silent to execute hooks without output or in the background
• New config options images.*.build.kaniko.annotations & images.*.build.kaniko.labels to specify extra labels and annotations for the kaniko build pod (#1265)
• New config option images.*.restartHelperPath to override the bundled restart helper with a custom script
• New config option images.*.build.docker.useCli to configure DevSpace to use the docker cli directly

Other Changes

• log streaming was greatly improved and should now automatically reconnect and recognize new upcoming pods that match the specified selectors. (#1149)
• The sync output is now merged by default with the log output to make it clearer what DevSpace is doing in the background. You can disable this new behaviour and restore the old by specifying dev.logs.sync: false in the devspace.yaml
• Improved the way DevSpace will select pods and containers for sync, port-forwarding and terminal
• Updated the internal kubectl and helm versions that will be downloaded if there couldn't be any found in the PATH.
• Fixed an issue where dev.autoReload.deployments would not correctly watch for changes to manifest folders and values files (#1255)
• Fixed an issue where devspace init would create a failing devspace.yaml if the Dockerfile was missing ENTRYPOINT and CMD (#1252)
• Fixed an issue where switching the profile would not redeploy, if it was deployed before with another profile
• Fixed an issue on older windows systems where the terminal output was corrupted.
• Fixed an issue where some .dockerignore statements were not correctly working with kaniko builder
• Fixed an issue where devspace would not correctly rebuild in some cases
• Fixed an issue where created image pull secrets could have a name that was too long
